So, hear this one out a sec:
What if the so called conspiracy of jews flooding Europe with muslims is right, but only because Europe is funding things like the PA, Muslim Brotherhood, Yemen etc.
I figure, that would fund these terrorist groups enough to harm Israel, right?
So Israel drags their balls all over a Muslim country for a few months while Europe cries about it.
So they’re sick of Europe crying about the bodacious balling and giving us a free sample. What better way to validate your argument about these people than to simply experience them?
I mean, that’s a cool theory and all but I guess it follows that if that is true then you’ve got more evidence of the entire framework of our civilisation having been orchestrated, made predictable and then manipulated. Then it doesn’t really matter anyway because we’ve got bigger fish to fry.
…
What do you make of that?

LOL no.
Iran was the primary supplier of the world's pistachios several decades ago, but right around the time of the hostage crisis in the 1970s, it was realized they could be grown in California.
Bonus reason to buy the American ones: the Iranians used to dye the pistachios with red powder to hide how many of them had gone bad.
That was used for a gag in the first "Naked Gun" movie:
Absolute scenes at the poker tonight.
From ~30 got down to the final table. Me and one other guy.
I pull two 6's - solid hand.
Flop - K, 3, 6.
Triple 6's so I go all in. He goes all in.
Turn over. He's double kings, I'm trip 6. He's raging.
Next card, 4. I'm winning.
Final card, 5. FUARK. He's got double kings and a straight.
Still won £75 so GG. But fuck me.
@Victor It's all manufactured.
There was a oversupply of pistachio and so someone came up with Dubai chocolate as a way of selling them.

Perhaps some coinage / carnage will help to clarify… the choice is, as always, yours.
@Typo-MAGAshiv Yeah, it’s mostly just FOMO marketing and people pretending to like it. It’s this weird herd mentality thing where people get to signal how “exquisite” their taste is. But this one’s funny because, like you said, it just tastes mildly interesting, as if nobody’s ever had a fkn pistachio before, and it looks like Shrek’s jizz after violating you for an entire summer.
Speaking of which, if you can market yourself to girls, or society in general, the same way pistachio chocolate markets itself, or really any product that’s relatively cheap to produce but sells at a massive markup, you already have a solid foundation in game. A lot of game is basically the ratio between perceived value and actual production cost.
Thanks. My flexibility is off the charts, so I’m good there. That’s partly due to good genetics and partly due to a coach I had during high school who was an absolute fanatic about stretching. Regarding shoulder mobility; my typical pre-workout routine includes 25 back bridge pushups.

(Not bad for a guy born during the Kennedy administration). It’s weird that I can do those at all, given the angle, but for some reason they rarely give me trouble, and when they do I just reposition my hands a little.
Anyway, I don’t have any chronic pain to work through… it’s only when I apply too much pressure to the GHJs at the wrong angle that things go sideways.
In other fitness news: I set a new DL PR at 360 a couple of weeks ago (I weighed in at 148 that day, I think), and I held a 13:30 plank last Friday. I have to give some of the credit to Danny Elfman for dragging me across the finish line … it’s all about the playlist when you’re holding a plank.
Alas, it was not Just Another Day.
