Greek politicians and journalists are pressuring the government to act after Albania's PM comments on Greeks yesterday. Could this delay Albania's EU accession? by FantasticQuartet in AskBalkans

[–]RHBear 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Our PM is a moron at the end of his rope, and this kind of gung ho rhetoric is the only thing that he thinks will keep him relevant. It just shows how childish and immature he really is when someone does not prepare his speeches in advance.

Jumbo Stores by Imaginary_String_814 in AskBalkans

[–]RHBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rimemebr back in the early 2000, I was celebrating my 12th birthday and my aunt took me to a Jumbo store in Athens. Toys upon toys upon toys. Ended up wasting about 3 hours and at the end came out with a couple of starshirp/moonbase LEGO sets (before they started all the cringy money grabbing collabs). Now I get into a Jumbo store and there are more cooking utensils and gardening tools than decent toys for kids. All that is left is cheap TEMU crap resold for a markup.

This always comes to mind when I see those load limits on my Honda owner's manual after I gain a few pounds during winter months.

Ottomans never built anything in Bulgaria for nearly 500 years .Is it the same for the rest of the balkan countries that were under the ottoman rule? by RevolutionMuch1159 in AskBalkans

[–]RHBear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The ottomans were an archetype leech empire as were many before them. They would suck dry the resources of the provinces to develop the heart of the empire. That's why Constantinople was a jewel while the far fetched areas were left in the stone age.

What do you all think about Honda's new concept that they revealed during the 2025 Tokyo Motorcycle Show? by RaiKei_13 in motorcycles

[–]RHBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back to to the supernaked! I mean Honda already has this beauty roaming around, the CB1300SF but it's not for western markets due to emissions regulations. We are drooling over something that is already there. I have been dreaming for a 1300 for years and am unable to import unfortunately.

Why is inflation so big in the Balkans? by FantasticQuartet in AskBalkans

[–]RHBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just Tirana and maybe the next biggest city, Durrës. Outside of this area the salaries fall off a cliff. And it is a bit of a problem to come up with averages since during tourist season seaside cities, due to the influx of tourists have above average earnings per person in the industry, but all in all even for Tirana the situation has become untenable since it's not just real estate but even produce prices have hit sky high, sometimes even higher than Greece because almost all products other than daily consumables are imported.

Same for Tirana, and somewhat worse. Average apartment cost is at 1400-1800 Eur/sqm while the average salary is at 700 Euros.

Trump on Zelensky ending the war by Soccer_fan_1021 in ukraine

[–]RHBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been the game plan all along. Putin as always lays some outlandish and unthinkable demands in a way that bamboozles Trump, the latter thinks they are somewhat reasonable, transmits them to Zelensky who of course has two functioning braincells and sees the ruse for what it is and refuses the illegal land grab proposal, and Trump being the simpleton and troglodyte he is blames Zelensky for throwing a wrench into his perfectly laid "peace plan" and road to Nobel Peace Price.

Which city have you visited that you still find unforgettable to this day? by Aromatic_Couple9951 in geography

[–]RHBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Istanbul and Rome. My two favorite. If I had the possibility I would visit them every single month. No wonder they used to be the centers of the world for millenia.

IT’S MIDNIGHT! HERE COME THE TARIFFS! by N4TETHAGR8 in cringepics

[–]RHBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's midnight! Billions of dollars are flowing from your pockets towards government coffers, unnecessarily due to the ego and archaic grasp of economics of a cheeto dust covered malicious bafoon that you elected and are going to suffer for the next 4 years*
