Standard is good behavior, not other people.

One country doing something wrong does not mean that every country gets to be wrong forever.

I am such a mental case that I worked for a company that designs and sells machines to make computer chips. I speak 3 languages, and when I got my superior driverlicense I could effortless use manual transmission. But I am still a mental case according to a "smart" American

Medical advice from an An4erican with their shit and expensive "healthcare"

For about $130/month => Free MRI, free diabetic shots and free ambulances (even our helicopters)

And you can't get fired if you have too much sickdays.

Repetitive statements inability to solve small personal problems. Bipolar would be my guess.

[–] user_AW11 1 points 1 year ago

Typical US arrogance ignoring shit in your own country and blaming others.

You can't deny yourself from stupidity and living in a 3d world country.

Deny this
