He shows only what he wants you to know. You may think you're stalking him, but all you're really doing is keeping in his sights.

It amuses me... seeing fools not understand who exactly the Frenchmen works for.
 
The Frenchman works for the Dutchman?

Then, who did the Provost work for? WHO GAVE THE ORDER?
 
You know the answer. We all go a little mad sometimes.

Such great joy I had watching these on first view.
Haven't tried watching any of the new ones a second time, I'll fix that soon.
 
The unfortunate part is that it wasn't a movie. She was talking to someone who saw an evil Leprechaun when she was young. My wife is a therapist and at first I thought she had really gotten into a conversation with someone and was acting out. It's not quite as funny as I thought it was...oh well....I wonder what color Leprechauns really are.....

I did too.

It gave me nightmares.

You should call my wife..... :oldrazz:
 
When a fancy car costs about 10% of the price of a fancy shoe, you know there is something awfully wrong with the shoe.
 
When there are people sleeping on sidewalks, children going hungry, and people dying because they can't afford medical care....and a pair of shoes costs $132,000.....there is something wrong with the world.
 
Imagine if you buy a pair of these and find the diamonds are forgeries.

Funny thing is diamonds are neither rare nor technically all that valuable. It was an artificially inflated market coupled with restricting access to them to make them appear to be in high demand as well as a marketing campaign to train men to use a month's salary for the engagement ring and the women to covet them.

Glad I never liked diamonds as an accessory for jewelry.
 
DJ got those shoes for his birthday but was in a foul mood when he got home after they lost a bit of their perfect white sheen after kicking the dirty orphan on his way home.

There's a quote from one of the big diamond guys that says (Paraphrased) "The only value of a diamond is what people think there is."

Besides being a shiny rock or being used in industrial work then they're pretty damn useless.

Hell, we can make nicer ones these days and you don't have to worry about child labor, blood diamonds or inflated prices.

I made the mistake of buying white shoes once. Now all my shoes are black just like my soul and lungs.

Well, once there is a supply and demand for a product there is usually a value associated with it. Everything is essentially worthless, even the money in our wallets except we've all agreed they have value.

I like the meme that says the Earth is globally in debt for several trillion dollars and then ask if we owe it to Jupiter.
 
Men think they need to buy diamonds to make their woman happy.

Women think that diamonds are forever and equate size and cost to love.

We're ****ed as a society.

I think those men and women are ****ed, the rest needn't be.

It's society as a whole. The vast majority of women who get engaged are given a diamond ring. It's very rare for that not to happen.
