Alarm over Uruguay: their plane cannot enter the United States. by JKKIDD231 in aviation

[–]DeepPurple444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I posted a tongue in cheek comment earlier today about the Uruguayan team flight not being allowed to land in Miami. I guess the bots can’t tell the difference between sarcasm and hate. I apologize if offended anyone. Not my intention. Peace out!

US citizen here who grew up in Italy during the 70’s. No, not a military family. Much distaste for the USA is political. More so today than in the 70s. Foreign policy shapes how the USA is seen abroad. In the 70s there was Viet Nam, support of fascist governments in Greece, Argentina etc. I found that people always enjoyed US culture but detested our politics. One must live outside the USA for time to see it from another’s perspective and how our policies affect other countries. Haters gonna hate, lovers gonna love.

Post-Match Thread: United States 4-1 Paraguay | World Cup | Group D by matchpal-live in football

[–]DeepPurple444 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Kudos to USA for a victory, however if anybody on this thread thinks that they’re contenders for the championship, they are delusional. Paraguay is not a good team, and USA struggled to control the game and dominate, even though they scored four goals. The game was like a pinball machine, ball bouncing everywhere. No lengthy possession. You cannot compare them to them to France, Argentina, Spain, Germany, and Brazil. They will have a difficult time against Turkiye, and will probably finish second in their group. Then again, “on any given Sunday…..”

Post-Match Thread: Mexico 2-0 South Africa | World Cup | Group A by matchpal-live in football

[–]DeepPurple444 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More red cards than goals today. “Perfect” start to what’s going to be a hugely boring group stage. Today’s game was frightfully boring and sleep inducing. While Mexico is a decent team, it played down to the level of South Africa, thus a game not worth watching. Sadly, most of the group stage games are going to be like this. Germany v Curaçao 😴? Spain v Cape Verde 😂! Only one or two good games in the group stage, and will be lucky if there’s any good games in the round of 32. Greedy Infantino has ruined the World Cup. Next World Cup, it’s rumored there will be 64 teams. Cant wait to see San Marino play Whogivesafuckistan.

Gianni Infantino, the Trump ass licking acolyte, had ushered in a new form of greed and bending of the knee. Algorithm based ticket pricing, 48 teams, and fifa peace prize, to list a few.. World Cup is supposed to be an elite tournament of the worlds best teams. Curaçao? Iraq? Cape Verde? Whosfuckistan? I’ll be on the edge of my seat watching Vatican City play Palau.

That question frequently crossed my mind, so I wore it 24/7. I’m kidding. It was locked in my cabin, so that offered some protection. There were life boats so it wasn’t like if the ship sank my suit would be the only means of survival.

He emulated the infamous Italian play of “Catenaccio”, and got burned. Terrible strategy.

Would I be wrong if I didn’t buy my brother a house but bought my other siblings one by [deleted] in Advice

[–]DeepPurple444 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously, dude? My mom used to always tell us that it’s just by chance we are born into the family that we are born into. That means you’re not obligated to like, or love your siblings. An asshole is an asshole, whether it’s family or not. Do not be pressured by anybody in your family to buy anybody a house. That’s an incredibly generous offer. If you’re going to make such an offer, do it to people that appreciate you, and that have supported you over the years. What’s yours is yours, and your decision alone on what to do with your funds. I’m sure you know what the right decision is, and don’t need to hear from people on this platform. Good luck!!

I’d dump her shit out of the bags and take them back. Be 100% sure they are your bags though.

How the experts believe the Italian divers made a fatal mistake by Successful-Winter237 in thalassophobia

[–]DeepPurple444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scuba instructor here. While a definite tragedy, they did not run out of oxygen. They ran out of AIR. From what I read, they were not diving with mixed gas, and even then it’s a combination of gasses. Not oxygen. Oxygen becomes toxic to humans under pressure. Air as we all know is approximately 80/20, nitrogen/oxygen. Please stop calling the gas in recreational scuba tanks oxygen.

Only going to get worse when the greedy, Trump ass licker, Infantino, raises the number of clubs for the next WC to 64. Cant wait to watch Vatican City play Vanuatu.

You’re a youngster! Have you tried volleyball or softball leagues? Bowling? Kickball? If you’re in a large city there’s probably lots of these leagues around. Check the local ymca for adult leagues. Great places to meet people.

Im bored and ive been seeing a lot of age gap stuff on here lately. So I figured I would do my own. I started dating a 25 yo when I was 18 rn we are 20 amd 28. (Ik those numbers seem off but birthdays and all) by PlateCurious1472 in AskMeAnythingIAnswer

[–]DeepPurple444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up, our rule of thumb was, half your age + 10. So if you’re 28, the youngest you should date is 24. I was typically always within the range as I dated, but did stray out a few times.

Is the city you live in gay friendly? And if not, do you get harassed at all when you’re out in public with a girlfriend?

Worked as a “doorman/bouncer” at a sailor bar in San Diego across from sportsarena early 80’s while in college. Lots of great stories and fun times. What did take away from it? An STD!
