If you're that depressed you should play a sport yourself and just get all of your anger out. Join a boxing club or something and just beat the living shit out of someone. That's why I joined the rugby team.

Haha say what you want guys but everyone has an escape from the daily routine, even if I painted it a bit bleakly. For some people its the internet, for others its drink and drugs, for some its a religion and for me its football. I don't start riots and I have seen maybe two or three football fan fights in every game I have ever been at, it is not the 70s and the stereotype just isn't true.

Balotelli walking off after a couple of fans shout 'monkey' at him is hardly indicative of a 'race problem'.

No, this is, though -
Euro 2012 should not have been awarded to Poland and Ukraine because of entrenched racism and violence, Sol Campbell has told the BBC's Panorama.

The former England captain's advice to fans is to "stay home, watch it on TV... don't even risk it."

Panorama spent a month filming at matches in both the joint host nations and witnessed Nazi salutes from the terraces, black players being taunted with monkey chants, rampant anti-Semitism and a vicious assault on a group of Asian students.

Larger and larger swaths of Europe are no-go areas for non-Aryans.

1) BBC Panorama films roughly 10 fans throwing the Hitler salute.
2) BBC Panorama pretends that no one ever does that in the UK or elsewhere in Europe.
3) BBC Panorama pretends that it has witnessed a serious problem, rather than admitting that all it has is footage of 10 drunk idiots throwing a Hitler salute.

Besides, football matches are dominantly just places for morons to vent their hatred. They're hardly indicative of wider society. And even the worst of football fans are generally capable of behaving themselves outside of a football stadium.

Good point - more of Europe than just Ukraine and Poland are no-go areas for non-Aryans.

You can pick your friends. You can pick your nose. But you can't pick your friend's nose.

Based on the progression of posts you were either addressing this to nietzsche or Natty Dread.

saw a person soliciting outside of wholefoods today, couldn't read the shirt, either greenpeace or something like that. but anyways, they were taking a break eating their lunch. it consisted of 1 ear of corn, some edamame (steamed/boiled soy beans[?]), and an apple.

now, i understand the whole hippie vegetarian meat is murder thing, but they must realize that isn't really a healthy meal. for 1, the corn is just a simple starch, and the beans and apple provide some nutrients, but enough to keep you going through the hot day?

I don't understand.

Also, something I don't understand that is related is this: who is the first guy who ate corn, shat it out, realized we couldn't digest it, but then continued eating it? did he like corn that much that it was ok that we can't handle it? or did he just like the look of his turds after eating some corn? I don't know, but I'm sure glad he got everyone on that bandwagon, corn is the shit!

Speaking of Honey Graham Oh's (is that a cereal, cuz that's where I'm going with this). Cinnamon Toast Fucking Crunch. Easily in the top 25 foods.
