I have been looking online, but I cannot see anything about the 25 year import law.


That Ford/Cosworth is an awesome piece of machinery.
It was actually top of the list of I believe Autoblog's top cars to import for 2017. Personally always look forward to what new cars become available every year.
I Have been interested in a Maserati Ghibli from the 90's

or a Peugeot 406 coupe

designed by Pininfarina and would rather spend the coin on a more basic car rather than a newer domestic rats nest electric centric vehicle.
Something about those compact yet powerful euro cars gets me every time.

I can't believe that's a Peugeot. Then again, Pininfarina did the design but it just doesn't look like what I'd think of as a stereotypical Peugeot. Beautiful car.

I checked that Autoblog post and forgot the first year of the Escort RS Cosworth was 1992. I know Jeremy Clarkson is in love with that car and he included it in one of the specials he did in the early 2000s.



The early 90s though is the beginning of the JDM cars I'd bring in...after I get that Sierra Cosworth.

I've never seen the first gen Lancer Evolution before.

Dayum! 406 looks awesome, can't say I saw it around here.

I just watched Goldfinger and I know this scene will trigger sjw

What would be most amusing is their thinking they have to rage against it.
When in reality. They'd be fighting the urge to be turned on by it.

It's nice to finally be back on a healthy, masculine, non PC platform after a pretty long hiatus. Every now and then I'd take a quick browse at the forum but work, school, and trying to improve my life take a lot of time and energy out of a person. I've been browsing Reddit (I blame this forum for even introducing that toxic website to me ) for school and some career stuff and while doing that got sucked into viewing other parts of Reddit as curiosity got the better of me as to how the culture over there really is and if it was the same as everyone on here claimed it was. To make a long story short, it was bad, real bad, with very few exceptions. The culture there is confusing, toxic, and easily contagious if one isn't careful and 90% of its user base is either immature, deranged, deluded, in denial, with an agenda, or any combination of the previously mentioned. Clueless, spineless dudes and girls (both straight and gay) with entitled and deluded modern day attitudes run amok there. On top of that if you're looking for information you have to verify whether it's genuine, false, or mixed with both since users there have such low self esteem they'd rather lie for some upvotes than admit they have no knowledge of a subject. What the fuck?

The forum seems to have gone through quite a bit since I've been gone though and trying to catch up with everything and all available info seems nearly impossible as everything is scattered. Some time back Fisto and Veloce had a falling out. Hopefully they made up as it would be a huge shame to see those dudes not on good terms Most recently I see there's some drama with Mike CF and that apparently he's a video producer now trying to make the mainstream. What's up with that?

Has anyone had to deal with activation locks on iphones? I bought one secondhand without knowing the activation lock even existed, and now I can't contact the person I got it off. The only solution I can see is going into an apple store and asking them to give me the email of the apple id so i can contact the guy and try to get him to remove it.

I went all day without eating before rugby practice today, so after doing a bunch of sprints I honestly thought I was going to faint. When I asked the coach to take a breather I'm convinced he thought I was a pansy bitch, I def need to put out 110% on monday now and get my shit together.

SWEET GODS OF ASGARD IT IS SNOWING IN THE DEEP SOUTH. EXCUSE ME WHILE I GO FUCK MY WOMAN IN THE SNOW

As expected - I read about a mini-ice age starting around the year 2016 - due to a decrease of sun-activity - the scientists who studied those are rather good at predicting global weather patterns. They also say that the sun caused the medieval warming period and the ice ages before. Slight fluctuations in sun activity have massive effects.

Now earth is entering likely something similar to what has been going on in the year 1500 - maybe a bit colder.

Quote:All global temperature data sets confirm that global temperature has fallen rapidly in recent months as the recent El Nino ended.

Guest essay by Dr David Whitehouse, The GWPF Science Editor

Over the last couple of years there have been many articles about how they have been record-breakers in global temperature. It’s often sold as a simple ‘the planet is getting warmer only because of us’ story. As I have discussed before the concurrent El Nino was dismissed by some climate scientists as having an insignificant contribution to that record. However, there is a great deal of confusion and diversity in the assessment of its contribution. Some scientists maintain that it was the recent very strong El Nino that elevated the temperature to record levels.

Where I am now there is 24 degrees Celcius below minus, if I try to fuck anyone in this weather, I fear that her pussy will freeze shut.

You're in Poland in the middle of winter, of course it's cold there.

Even if an ice age was coming due to natural factors that doesn't mean there isn't human influence in changing weather patterns.

So then maybe it will even out.

My first time fucking a girl was on a beach in the Vancouver Area about a few degrees below zero. If its around 0 Celsuis or a bit lower its fine provided you have good clothing to put back on after you are done. It if its 25 below you're going to have a bad time.

Should this warrant its own thread?

I've been wondering how many people associate or even advocate the use of drugs (legal and illegal) with states of creativity and inspiration.
I ,of course, am also implying how many times,I-as a person who does art-been asked what kinds of drugs I took to get inspired and how much.

Even in my worst phases,getting drunk or really high on something was a way for me to numb my mind and "forget the pain" rather than something that enabled me to either be better with my pencils or have a vision of something that I could later draw inspiration from (unless I wanted to write a character in a self destructing loop and then I couldnt do it because I was in that loop and unaware of it).
And if I could use my pencils it was in spite rather than because of my temprary intoxication and in general the results were quite shitty and my memory from being under the influence of a drug is always one of haziness and disorientation,not of creativeness.
What I consider my most twisted or greatest work whether we are talking simplicity,subtleness or complexity comes from a very sober state of mind.

Now, I've known many other artists(all disciplines not just visual arts) and am in al LTR with another artist so I've had a pretty large sample pool to draw some conclusions from.
My bird has stated a similar reflection to mine, and from my own memory dealing with other people in artistic fields I''d say I have a hard time remembering any artist that was excelling at their discipline while under the influence.

A case of a visual artist that claimed to have drawn inspiration from the use of drugs is actually one of my youth's favored illustrators: Jean Giraud (also known as "Moebius") who had used LSD for some time in his earlier years and often worked with Alejandro Jodorowsky, a magnificent bullshit mystic who is regarded as several octaves deeper than what he actually is (him I do believe to have taken drugs in order to compensate for an innate lack of talent).
Still while his alien landscapes are fascinating to look at, I sincerely doubt that his claim the inspiration came from hallucinatory trips was purely sincere.

Resuming,in my experience,it seems as if people who take drugs often use artistic inspiration as an excuse,and the heaviest users I remember also to be the less talented (or more impaired because of the perceptive alteration)


Anyhows, there's a lot of very able and artistically inclined members of this forum.What is your take on the subject?

Disclaimer:I am not trying to make a case against or in favor of the use of drugs or the morality of it but I am genuinely curious to know other POV's and/or a general consensus...

^ There isn't too much I can say about that topic, but I will say this.

My life changed, for the better, once I had my first weed cookie.
If I didn't, I'd still be stuck in a dead-end job wondering when I was going to do something with my life.

For example, I went to a karaoke bar today, and I actually managed to sing.
For the record, I am an extremely shy person.
To do something like that, would be like a muslim deciding to assimilate to a western country.
It's just not likely, it doesn't seem possible.
Yet I did it.

Now I am convinced that as long as your willing to do, you can succeed.
Even if the results aren't great, as long as you try, you will get better eventually.

I'm a musician not an artist but I mostly agree with you. I don't think drugs gives you new artistic creativity or ideas.

I think it comes from being able to enjoy the music, the creation and to relax. The same way it helps to improve sex. It shuts off your conscious mind.

I can completely understand why musicians like Chet Baker eventually got the idea that they "needed" heroin to play, and that it made them play better for that reason. It's so addictive, feels good, really puts you in the moment, makes everything sounds better. Playing sober is just boring and uninspiring in comparison. It makes sense to be as inspired as possible for improvisational music like jazz.

Maybe rock musicians just take drugs because they're bored of playing the same songs, the same way night after night.

I'm not advocating taking drugs, especially ones that will kill you quickly like heroin, to play music. I'm just explaining why I think musicians can get into this state.

@el gostro and @redpilluk

Elgostro I think you should make that a thread, I have lots of input on the matter, as well as personal experience. I do think it deserves it's own thread and I wouldn't want to see it lost in the pages of the lounge.
