So is this different from the other protesting they were doing about retirement? Those were mostly cau-oui,oui-casian Frenchies. They always riot. These are mostly minority Frenchies, at least that's how the media is portraying it, which ironically now makes them proper true patriots of Francais. Pretty sure the victim-aggressor was of Algerian descent.

Ness, they are protesting the police killing a black 17 year old. Or we call it, just another day in America.

My boss just showed me her urn for her cat that died a month ago. I know people who have a bunch of urns displayed for their deceased pets and I just don't get it. We have put down 4 cats and have photos and keepsakes and of course memories, but never once have I felt the need to bring one of them home stuffed or in an urn (you aren't even sure is them). :ugh:

When our dog got put down we put the ashes in an urn. Maybe it's just a way of coping in the sense that they're not truly gone since they are still there. But you're right you don't know it's them, a random collection of other pets or it could just be filled with expired cajun seasoning.

1 or 2 urns. Fine. But we knew a couple people who had like 5+. One lady had 2 Chow Chow's and 2 Himalayan cats at any given time and she had at least 10 urns set out. I suppose urns better than having them stuffed though.

It’s not my thing but I get it , it’s no different than the 100 other conventions out there that people are passionate about. Just features stuff for that specific culture.

Old Car Shows. Really? Same cars every year. Some old dude flexing about his 70s car for the last 20 years. I don't understand why grown men dress up as cartoon characters and stand in line to met D-Grade celebrities at comic book conventions... but they do. Each to their own. Cars tick a lot of boxes. The old dude likely worked on or restored that car, or has had that car since he was a kid. Or for a lot of guys in their 30-50s, they inherited the car from a family member and it unlocks a lot of memories. For many, older cars offer a sense of nostalgia plus driving an older vehicle is also a completely different experience to anything built in the last 30 years. Most of these car scenes have deep communities that run back decades, that's are often part of larger communities. A lot of guys with street rods or rat rods are part of the greater rockabilly or rock 'n roll scenes as an example. And a lot these events also themselves a front for a charity.. don't tell anyone. It's often about getting people out and asking patrons for donations or the entry costs go towards fund-raising. Rod Runs and charity runs, often the guys with the old cars are paying to go on them with all proceeds going to local charities. Bikers often do the same, but often people don't see past the patches and beards and think all these people are unfriendly, violent people. Picture this... it's a nice, warm spring day.. windows are rolled down and there's some tunes playing and the sound of an old engine as you cruise to hang out with some old mates.. there's worse ways to spend an afternoon.

People moving countries doing no research, I feel like I research more for a holiday than someone people who plan to live in a new country.
Have seen several videos of people complaining they moved to Sydney, Australia and can’t find a place to live, two seconds of research will tell you there’s a rental crisis and Sydney’s very expensive in terms of real estate.
Also people that bump old threads.

" or " what they don't tell you about moving to...." What did you expect? Wagga Wagga?
