how do you feel about France?

Wonderful history lesson. Totally irrelevant to me though as I am from neither of those countries. Wish I could tip you for this wonderful lesson. Haven't done anything good for the world in a while and helping someone who's mentally challenged is always a good thing.

What do you guys think about eating a pineapple and a 5oz bag of romaine lettuce in one sitting as a meal? Healthy or no?

I have cut up a whole pineapple and ate it with a 5oz bag of romaine lettuce on multiple occasions and it tastes great and I feel great afterwards.



Nah I'm just kidding I love everyone.

Ok, cool. Where are you from then so I can make fun of that place and it's people?

Rich, you're American. You can't make fun of any country and its people. Well, you can, except your country is basically the biggest joke of all so yeah.

I'm Dutch btw, gl with that one.

Wooden shoes.

Anal bleaching.

Oh, I'm sorry we can't all be born with perfect anuses like the Dutch.

I thought the point of this game was saying random words? Or was wooden shoes somehow a joke/insult towards the Dutch?

Only a Dutch person wouldn't get the joke. Of course wooden shoes is a joke about the Dutch, we say it all the time about you guys.

Aah good joke! Wish I could tip you for this one.

Yea, that makes sense. Definitely believe we are all different and have different needs. I'm big. More like a Neanderthal that can be easily duped into falling off a cliff.

Eating an entire pineapple doesn't sound fun to me. Although a couple years ago I was watching all those mono-diet videos. Mostly because I stumbled onto that banana chick and got sucked into the drama. I was way too lazy to go out and buy 5lbs of dates or bananas or melons or whatever I was going to eat that day, tho.

I only got into the keto fad as a challenge with my sis and cuz. Glad I did tho.

My mood swings used to be bad without weed. After a good 6 weeks of cutting it back by about 90% I finally feel pretty stable. Going another 2 weeks and then I'll smoke daily again. Only gave it up to beat the carbs. When I first started, I had several people tell me I was more enjoyable to be around when I was smoking dope and eating sugar. Now, they don't think I should be on either one.

Got my eating window down to 4 hours. Hopefully I'll be able to stick to that when I start back on the bud. I'm surprised IF is easy for you eating so much fruit. I really thought the excess fat in my diet was what was sustaining me for the 16+ hours.

As a former counselor, I'd like to point out that if you came up with anal bleaching randomly after reading wooden shoes you may need to talk to someone.

Word association can often times let professionals help people with unresolved dramas and internal conflicts.

If you were just insulting America, carry on. You obviously don't know us well if that was first on your list.

Interesting. Any suggestions on what it could mean Jack? Am I a potential serial killer?

That wasn't an insult towards Americans, not sure how anal bleaching is an insult to begin with.

This whole lol american tipping culture discussion from the other thread(s) that carried over to here is really dumb. Yes our tipping culture is dumb, but that is the way it is here (they get paid **** wages and rely on tips) and when tourists come here they should learn about the culture here (tipping and other things) and try their best to follow the custom. Especially poker players from this forum that likely know a tip of a buck or two on hands that go past the flop is the norm. When I spent 20 days across France, Italy and the Netherlands some 20 years ago my ex-wife and I did our best to learn their customs/culture and tried to show them respect while we were there, even if we thought they were lol-dumb.

oh god lol

Naw, I'm retired. I just raise chickens now. They don't even have anuses, anyway.

Birds are pretty weird. Kind of like this thread.

+1

I started drinking a smoothie everyday a few months ago loaded with fruit (blue/black/strawberries, a banana, mango, peach, and pineapple), spinach, and kale. Felt noticeably healthier since. Throw in some spinach/kale Rich, it doesn't really change the flavor much

Then how do they ****?

Anyway, chickens obviously have anuses. Chicken anus is a delicacy in South Korea.

Background: Mohamed a young maybe 27 year old guy in seat 5 is betting on the river. He pushes out a stack of about 110 or so and seat 3 calls as he is pushing out a stack. Mohamed then puts 10 down and pulls back the rest of his chips. The dealer and seat 3 are like wtf and he starts co mingling his bet with the rest of his money so nobody knows how much he had. The floor is called and rules that he has to bet at least 5 dollars. There is no forward motion rule and since you can grab a stack and cut out a smaller bet and pull chips back at the commerce he hasn't finished acting. So he bets 5 the other guy raises and he folds. Good to know since I thought there was a forward motion rule at the commerce.

Then a while later, I raise blind UTG to 15 and everyone folds. I don't even look at my cards and I say to the table "easy game" as a joke and Mohamed gets mad and says you only play 1 hand per hour don't pretend like you don't. I explain I'm joking cause I raise blind and everyone folds I'm not pretending like I play a lot of hands.

I get KJ make it 15 preflop in position and 2 people call including Mohamed. Flop A73r. Everyone checks. Turn Jr. Mohamed bets 25 I call other guy folds. River 8 and Mohamed bets 65 I think and call. He shows an 8. I say "no good" he points like he wants me to show my hand and normally I would except he got mad at me for no reason earlier. So I ask the dealer "whos turn is it to show?" He shows 85ss. I show KJ and win.

Grabbing chips. Woah.

Victor(seat 6 the reggest of regs at 5/5), a nice middle aged Armenian guy is in a hand with Mohamed(seat 5). Vic and Mohamed go all-in on the turn. The board is J4432sss. Mohamed shows AsJc. Vic asks do you have a flush? (thinking perhaps the jack is a spade and being a few beers in) And turns over KsKc onto the table clear as day. He gets up and starts leaving and the dealer is trying to get his attention before he leaves. Mohamed then takes Vics KK and tosses it face down into the muck and takes the ~150 all-in bet in the middle and puts it next to his chips and says "he's leaving i win". I freak out because I saw him comingle chips earlier and I know he's about to do it again so I start shouting "Hey! Hey! Hey!" and I reach over from seat 9 and grab the chips back and put them back in the middle and I tell him to wait for the floor. When floor comes dealer explains what happened and asks if anyone saw the cards and of course everyone did, so Victor ends up winning the pot. That was the craziest thing I ever saw at the poker table I guy grab chips out of the middle that weren't his and muck another guys hand.

Later he starts trying to saying in angry tone "he was leaving I won." And I was having none of it so I loudly cut him off and said "NEver touch another player's cards" while waving my finger at him. That shut him up and I think he got the point. Dealer said later that he's never seen that and I've seen him working there for years and probably ~20 years as a dealer my guess.

Results 6/19: +$515

Was down a couple hundred at first, played really tight and ended up winning in the end.

Lol.

Good luck. Yeah I can eat fruit all day. But I get hungry every couple hours. I kinda just count other meals into my intermittent fasting. I know fruit digests differently. I can eat an insane amount of fruit, I'll count exactly one day.

+1. yeah coming here and not understanding is one thing but coming over here refusing to accept the customs and then insult the people. no wonder people dont like foreigners.

Thank you. =D

Hmmm no I gotta look up "bird anus".

Hell no. I'll eat some spinach and romaine lettuce is delicious. But kale tastes so bad. I'm pretty sure its poison and everybody is being tricked. Not me. And I don't want to ruin my delicious fruit smoothie with greens. I normally just eat a bunch of romaine with my meals every once in a while.

Yeah I'm guessing they just don't have sphincters. They can't control when they ****.

Man LA games sound like they’re full of the biggest scumbags ever. Wp sticking up for Victor.

I agree with Fozzy that your tipping system is stupid but until it changes you should tip accordingly.

Fwiw it’s laughable for you to say about people not accepting US customs Rich as American tourists are widely regarded as loud, rude and obnoxious.

When you are a visitor in anyone´s country, you should try to respect their customs, language, culture, politics, no matter how stupid it might look in your own pov. Unless you´re dealing with ***holes ofc.

There are loud, rude and obnoxious american tourists. And there are nice people. It´s just random. It happens in all countries and nationalities, even mine.

In terms of the Vikings and Britain - A lot of Vikings invaded England and settled there, at one point they controlled essentially all of England before Alfred the great rallied and pushed them back out of Wessex (a prior nation to England roughly consisting of south of London). In the end over the decades, truces, political marriages and the conversion of the vikings to Christianity lead to establishment of England as a country.

So, a lot of the women that were captured by the Vikings would have remained in England.

Thanks. Yeah I wouldn't know how American tourists are perceived but that makes sense. I know the rest of the world thinks our women are sluts. In America, European tourists are widely regarded as very snobby, rude and don't tip.

Agreed.

I don't know. I mean you can see it in their faces. Brits are known for having jacked up teeth. It's pretty much an island of rejects. Obviously not everybody is going to have a crowded mouth and bad skin. Just most of them.

And what the F is N.America then ?

Natural selection in between Brits and Americans happened pretty fast according to Rich

So you are saying French Canadians and Mexicans are similar to Americans in any form or shape!?!
