Talking in a sophomore tone attempting to be a philosopher. Kids do it all the time when they get to that age they think they have become enlightened. Smart enough to make themselves look like an idiot.

You still haven't explained to me what the Fractional Reserve Banking system is. Avoiding the question I see.....

So questioning "common knowledge" i.e. programming and exposing falsehoods for what they truly are...is speaking medieval? Ok thanks for the clarification. But your mildly amusing puns aside, I could wager that you never even questioned during your entire existence/life/experience the programming that's been installed in your brain that differentiates between different clothes and determines their "smartness."

Since I don't wish to sound "medieval" I will make my point very plain and very concise so you will not misunderstand. There is no difference between shorts and a three piece suit. You (due to your programming) have given these things their merit. In and of themselves they are essentially all variations of the same cloth. Have you ever wondered why the pope and other assorted religious figures throughout the millenia have worn elaborate costumes? Here's a hint...its not because they liked to dress smart or look good.......

No, saying things like this is

Oh I see. I shouldn't have put that "yore" in there. Ok let me rephrase it 가방끈이 짧은 외국인식 표현으로.... "What's home? Is it in between those borders that guys a long time ago drew on maps that you were born in?"\

I'm going to use 학력이 낮음 단어 whenever I post from here on out....

I was born in a hospital mate, not a map. Maybe you should go back to the other way of talking

If it were posted on the way gook, you'd be flamed and trolled more than you would on some Naver site. Apologists over there would get more emotional than emotion itself. Bunch of ##$$!es.

Yep, need this site for a good laugh now and then.

아조씨 파워!!


(Actually, most older men nowadays are pretty friendly in all seriousness though. Still, it's good to have a laugh from time to time.)

Even though I don't watch TV, the infrequent times that I catch a waygook on television...they make themselves out to be clowns/fools. Tis' disappointing.

On TV that is because the Korean director wants them to behave in that way. As for youtube, those guys have no excuse.

Stuff like this bums me out:

I don't like being a jerk / negative towards people, but I feel like someone should encourage him to take his videos in a more dignified direction.
