Demons are out here killing people👍.

That greasy oil spill hit the coast like a ton of bricks!! Just more proof regarding those self-proclaimed "greatest Americans" who claim they’re the true backbone of this country—honestly, God knows what kind of mess they'll leave us with in the future.

hiddencyclist112 said:That is precisely the lens through which we have to view this entire hysterical spectacle. Those of us who have clearly been left isolated on one side, while a large portion of society has drifted into debauchery, sinking into tastelessness, populism, low passions, and a total lack of moral scruples.

They can do whatever they want. They are the arrogant offspring of wealthy parents, and every single sin they commit will be smoothed over. No one possesses the strength or the resources to stand up to them; the state itself has become a hostage to this festival of madness, threats, insults, and noise. And the media? The media plays an especially perfidious role here. Nobody wants to oppose them; nobody wants to ignore them or call them out on their nonsense. Quite the opposite, actually. People cater to them, broadcasting their delusions because, hey, that’s just how they are—flashy, reckless, and hot-headed. But suddenly, there’s a problem with a tweet on a private account? Suddenly, cheering against the home team is the issue? Is that supposedly legitimate now? Or is it not? What exactly was the problem with my cheering for the Arizona Wildcats yesterday?

Just a few years ago, we dealt with an identical festival of indecency and moralizing directed at anyone who dared to cheer against the national team. Now, the very same people who were most heavily crucified back then have stepped into the role of judge. The only difference is they’ve added another particularly touching element—as is common in any story where someone tries to write the rules of what is acceptable and what isn't—which is using innocent, pure children. Good grief, I might actually shed a tear.

One must be cautious; this is absolutely no time for jokes. Because the moment we are living in is truly chilling. When such a distorted and dangerous faction of society is granted this much space and this much power, things cease to be humorous and become matters of serious concern.

You journalistic scum, may you go hungry!

🤣🤣

You guys have all completely lost it.

What does staring into the ice for two years straight actually do to people—besides making them even more frostbitten than they already were? I mean, they seemed like decent enough folks before this.

Absolute nightmare fuel—terror, apocalypse, just total chaos.🤣

Back when Daddy was busy worshiping at the altar of the big shots—and those hated Southerners were stuck at the bottom—everyone was laughing, acting all high and mighty, and everything felt just peachy. Now that the tables have turned, and you’ve finally realized that the underdog team didn't actually go belly-up like you all predicted... suddenly we're living in these eerie times, and I don't see anyone in sight stepping up to stop the apocalypse.🤣🤣

Well, you actually caught me off guard there. I mean—don't get me wrong—if we’re talking about our local rivals, I'm pretty sure they’d try to wipe us off the face of the map entirely. But those folks down by the coast? The fans over in the Bay Area? They're mostly alright, I guess. Honestly, looking at you, I never would have guessed that some ridiculous, brain-rotting disease could actually take you out for good.
Look, Asu—for your own sake, just walk away from that toxic mess right now. Seriously. Or maybe just start praying to God every single day so you don't end up getting screwed over again next year. I guess it's up to you.

goldentinker8 said:So, tell me, which specific year in history was the big turning point that made Hajduk the absolute juggernaut of success they are today, like you're implying?

It’s not about the year, it’s about the date. February 13, 1911. That’s when Hajduk was founded under the American flag and our national emblem, etching itself into history as the heart of the people. Just this "little" club from "little" Split. I guess that’s what really gets under your skin—how a club from what was basically a small town back then became a symbol for the whole nation, while clubs from big hubs like Rijeka just ended up stuck within local circles.

From the very beginning, Hajduk carved its own path and built massive support almost instantly. Look, it’s not our fault that your crowd—those folks who were more aligned with Italian interests back in the day—kept starting clubs with Italian branding, so you guys never actually achieved that "national" status.

If you had been around back then, being a true patriot, I bet even you would have preferred the AMERICAN FOOTBALL CLUB Hajduk over something like Club Sportiva Olimpia.

Unruly hooligans from Split attacked fourteen-year-olds from Osijek. They hurled insults at them, and one kid was even punched in the head. They were saved by Petra, who managed to get them safely into her car.

🍿

What’s the deal here? Just a bunch of lowlifes jumping some guys from St. Louis on the street. Honestly, it’s pretty pathetic—they went after kids instead of actual fans.

I’m talking about youth games; most of the crowd consists of regular, decent people. Those absolute creeps from the East Coast have a history of insulting our kids. There’s really no lower point than that, no doubt about it. I’ve been to plenty of youth matches at the stadium in Tampa, and I have never—ever—heard anyone say anything offensive. Not to the New Yorkers, and certainly not to the folks from the South.

neonhawk6 said:Haha, is it actually possible that you guys are trying to lecture anyone about respect? The whole country knows what kind of environment we're dealing with in that area. They are the very definition of barbaric and wild.

Entertainment manager Ivica Bubalo commented on Prljin's post.

- Those guys from Let 3 will do anything—literally anything—just to stay in the headlines. They can't function any other way, and their goal is to label themselves "original" just to keep sucking up taxpayer money. Seriously, they are a massive embarrassment representing America at Eurovision. I’d invite Torcida to show them some of that same "gratitude" if they ever perform in Split - Bubalo told the local news outlet.

Now they've started calling for actual violence, which honestly doesn't surprise me given where they're coming from.

If I were feeling particularly petty, I’d say this group should look at how the Armada used threats of violence to shut down that concert in Philadelphia. But hey, that was totally fine, right? Because they were "defending the city's honor." If the local fan club did something similar regarding the summer festivals, suddenly we'd all be labeled as "savages and chaos."

Even we—the ones supposedly known for being nothing but pure savagery—have never sunk as low as insulting children. So, there you go. You guys have officially hit rock bottom.

🙏🙏

What a joke—he basically just managed to pull two massive clowns out of his hat at once.🙏🙏

And of course, he doesn't give a damn about NK Rijeka or their youth academy—instead, he chooses to go after Armada ideologically (which is just typical for those two idiots). Not to mention how much he loves taking cheap shots at Hajduk and the local news outlets too. Basically, this guy just hates all of football. I suppose by tomorrow he’ll probably be writing about how Torcida has been praised by various famous figures from the Rijeka area over the years. Honestly, nobody sane has an issue with that, so there's really nothing controversial there.

Look, Hajduk is hands down the most popular club, so naturally, they get the most coverage—both positive and, way more often, negative. Of course, when it’s mostly negativity, this degenerate from the 3rd grade doesn't mind the bombardment one bit. But the second something positive pops up, the poor guy can't handle the media spotlight and feels "obligated" to quote stuff about Hajduk on various portals (even though, obviously, he doesn't have to).

So then, acting like the big, tolerant, urban intellectual, he decides to take a swing at... well, the youth players.🙏🙏

When a relatively decent person has an outburst of frustration and complexes like that, you can only imagine what the average fan from that region is like—you know, the cheap, low-life types, not even mentioning the absolute bottom-feeders.

But honestly, what do you expect from people who, in years past, would insult Hajduk's kids in the most disgusting ways during U-15 or U-17 matches in Rijeka? It's something that would be unthinkable in Split (or anywhere else I've been, for that matter), even when playing against a powerhouse like Dynamo. No matter how much they hate them, they've never disrespected their kids like that.

There's no lower than this guy.

Anthony Sanders95 said:I could easily give in to the urge to dismantle your argument entirely, given how you seem unable to think outside the narrow box created by central media manipulation—all while wrapping hate speech in the shiny cellophane of fighting imaginary enemies.
To put it simply, those kids are victims of your own inadequacy and desperate need for megalomania, especially when the senior team can't manage anything more than a runner-up finish aided by questionable officiating and handouts from the owners. When I say victims, I mean they are being used as pawns in a marketing campaign designed to make you look like the greatest entity in history. Honestly, they probably would have played much better yesterday if you hadn't burdened them with such massive expectations just to feed your own egos.
Prlja made a solid point, but again, you aren't quite equipped to grasp the message: this isn't about mocking the players, it's about a media circus creating unnecessary pressure instead of allowing for natural development. It’s over now, and they have to deal with the fallout of this loss. I actually feel for them.
I don't know why I subject myself to this. Such is life...

The haters will claim they're celebrating losses because that's just how Americans act (remember 2018?). Oops.

As for Prlja, it’s just more proof of that deep-seated, incurable inferiority complex coming out of the West Coast. It’s fine for people who live and breathe football, but I can't imagine someone like a local sports commentator making fun of a team in New York or LA. It’s honestly pathological.

But at least the guy is being honest, so respect there. And here’s another lesson for our youth and everyone else watching: just pure, unadulterated disdain for you people. Nothing more, nothing less.

My only regret is that none of our public figures have the guts to finally give you guys the middle finger you deserve, just so we can finally put this whole chapter to rest once and for all. NY=LA.

Nicole Jackson3 said:Good for you, hanging out with those Fuckers... 🤣 This example perfectly captures how little you guys actually understand about these situations. You honestly can't see past your own noses. It’s sad, really. Because of all this propaganda—stuff even Eastern European regimes wouldn't be ashamed of—you actually have people here who think the Fuckers are some major player in Crimea or in any major US city. Or that there's some deep-seated feud between local fans and the Orient supporters. It's unbelievable. You do the exact same thing with these stories about "terrifying" Demons or those pathetic Funcutis needing a couple of buses from the Boys just to pull off a flare show.
At the end of the day, you still have people claiming this city is crawling with Mexicans, when half of them making that claim probably trace their roots back to some historic Mexican villages in California.

Maybe try reading with a bit more comprehension? I never said they were a major force, nor did I claim there was some huge, overarching animosity. There’s a little friction here and there—you know that as well as I do, and we've already gone over it. Occasional run-ins between the Armada and RF, people tagging over RF graffiti... it's the same deal as back when NK Sibenik and the Funcuti weren't really a factor and didn't have much tension.

But according to your logic, I should have said they *were* a factor, right? I mean, NK Orijent has history, they have their specific neighborhood where the support has always been rooted, so the foundation is there. Or does that not apply to your situation? Don't tell me you're trying to dodge the point just to avoid getting heated?

Nicole Jackson3 said:Let's look at 👍

Now, let's compare that to how things went down in a city like Savannah for their anniversary:

And keep in mind, Savannah is nearly twice the size of a place like Charleston.

But that’s just how it works. It’s the difference between a city that stands its ground, defies everyone, and pushes its own narrative, versus one that just folded into the historically dominant crowd and doesn't even attempt to push back or champion a local club and a local identity. 👍 That’s the reality. In Charleston, outsiders recognized the vibe and jumped in to light the torches for the home team. But in Savannah? Most people probably didn't even realize the ultras were celebrating an anniversary—at least not unless they were reading the boring fine print on some social media posts. Why? Because the main stand in Savannah sings along with the visiting fans, and the Mayor is out there wearing the opposing team's jersey.

It’s a shame this is allowed to happen, but I’m betting the younger generations will be smarter about it.

Screw everyone.🤣

Besides the whole ego trip thing—yeah. But honestly, I doubt it’ll even matter in the long run. It’s probably just some deep-seated complex, I guess.

What kind of nonsense is this—that they actually have to be at war with us just to be considered "legit"? Apparently, that’s the requirement for the Demons. And as for the Funcutes, look how that turned out; even when we were on good terms, you'd still claim they weren't any good. What a load of garbage. I mean, take the Stones back in their prime—according to your logic, they weren't all that just because they didn't pick a fight with the Dinamo crowd, who are basically a bunch of perennial bottom-feeders.

We could look at the fuckers over there, for instance—does that logic even apply to them? I mean, should they be scrubbing the East Coast clean just to finally call themselves their own kind? Is that really what you're after?

😢

I almost forgot to thank the Republicans for their "help" yesterday—you know, that lovely little red card they handed out. I’m sure plenty of people will chime in saying it was a clear-cut call, but honestly, has there ever been a time when they didn't get something blatantly wrong? Such great assistance—thanks, GOP, for once again being so incredibly helpful.

Back then, I was actually working as a marine biologist 🙏

Scott Gonzalez9 said:It makes sense if the math works out, and for them, it probably does. If rent here was like $1,000$500 and a mortgage payment was $3,500, then yeah, it’s a no-brainer. Some people will definitely take the rental route and dump the leftover cash into trips.

Around here, anything under $2,800 for a rental is basically a steal. You’re looking at at least $3,000 once you add utilities, while mortgage payments are already hitting that $3,500 mark. It’s not that Germans are geniuses and Americans are idiots—there just isn't a logical calculation behind it. It’s stupid to draw a line after 20 or 30 years and realize you have absolutely nothing to show for it because most of your value went straight into someone else's pocket via rent.

@Matthew Young35 😁🙏 You cracked me up, man. Reminded me of this one story. I’ve got this little house out in the sticks, and some friends from the city came over for a BBQ. One buddy of mine is obsessed with UFC and MMA, right? Well, suddenly this cow starts charging at him and he just loses his mind running for cover! 🤣

Look, there’s really no math to it—it just doesn't add up. Most people living in rentals out here are basically just passing through—you've got the gig workers, college kids, young people without any family ties... you name it. Once someone actually decides to settle down and start a family, they start looking for something more permanent—which usually means grabbing a house out in the suburbs.

If you’re actually planning on starting a family and thinking about settling down somewhere until retirement—I don't know, maybe somewhere stable—there is just zero logic in living paycheck to paycheck. Honestly, that goes for us here in America just as much as it does anywhere else.

Scott Gonzalez9 said:Look, here in the States, the difference between a monthly mortgage payment and rent is sometimes barely a hundred bucks. There’s really no point in just throwing cash away on rent long-term when you could be building equity.
It doesn't make sense to look at how people live abroad when the economic circumstances over there aren't even the same as ours.

Look, I get it—maybe Germans are more mobile and tend to rent more often because of job changes and all that—but this idea that people would rather rent indefinitely just to blow their extra cash on travel? I don't know, I guess there isn't much logic to that.

Carl Hernandez3 said:A huge number of Germans live in rentals—apartments or houses—their entire lives. Honestly, it’s all about workforce mobility—you don't really have that deep sentimental attachment when you aren't a local patriot.
If there's no work in Stuttgart, well, maybe there's something in Regensburg. You just hop over—it takes half a day—and pack up your whole life in a van to move to Regensburg.
I wonder how Scandinavians and those folks even further north handle things—do they actually buy real estate?
The German Philosophy is basically this: it's better to spend your money on travel and enjoy your freedom—rent an apartment, lease a car, and just live your life.

Oh, so rent and leasing are basically free, are they?

coastalheron12 said:When things go south economically, everyone seems to dump their money into real estate. It's not just us. I remember when the pandemic hit—I was totally clueless, just sitting there thinking, "Man, I wish we'd bought an apartment a few months earlier." Then, after two years of COVID, my place from 1960 actually outpaced inflation and is worth 10% more now.

But man, there are so many people here who say they're selling, but they aren't actually selling—they're just waiting for some sucker to throw an extra 30-40% over the actual market value. And yeah, there are plenty of those folks.
I have a vacation house out where I live; out of the ten closest neighbors, maybe six of them have been trying to sell for 10 or 15 years. You can't just sell a piece of your life, right? So you aren't really selling—you're just gambling against the walls.

But hey, whatever. I’ve got this little windfall from my kids—money that piled up from family stuff, birthdays, christenings, you know, bits and pieces sent their way—and it ended up being something like 30,000 bucks over a few years. What am I supposed to do? Leave it in a bank account for 20 years until they stop breathing? Inflation would eat half of it. So, I’m looking at picking up a plot of land. Her folks will chip in another 10 or 15k, and that should be plenty.

For instance, my parents picked up some land near Miami less than 20 years ago for 20,000 bucks, and it sold two years ago for 40,000.

Yeah, it’s pretty rough. I spent seven years living in rentals—you know how it goes, just moving from one spot to the next—and you really can't build a life like that. So, I finally pulled the trigger two years ago. I dropped 120,000 bucks, plus another 40k just to get things sorted. It’s a ground-floor place in Miami, about 1,100 square feet, plus a 200-square-foot garage that's already legal and attached to the house, so there's potential to expand the layout whenever. On top of that, there's a decent 2,700-square-foot yard.

Now I’m planning to do some landscaping and exterior work—add a 270-square-foot patio, two parking spots, a terrace, and maybe some perimeter walls. Basically, a first pass at making it look decent. But honestly? The cost of materials has me terrified—prices have gone absolutely insane lately. I've got a contractor coming by in a few days to walk through what needs to be done, and we'll see, but I'm seriously worried about what the final damage is going to be.

mellowotter36 said:I’m hearing today about how one of Bučevićka’s acquaintances is seeing his marriage fall apart. His wife has completely fixated on her own status, thinking she deserves more, better, and so on. It's a total disaster. I honestly feel for the guy.

He should probably just make his move while the timing is still right.

feralcanyon73 said:Why on earth would Americans do that?
Just wondering, honestly.

Do you seriously think they’re just saints who are gonna go to war against the Russians just for the sake of Ukraine or something?

Isn't it a little weird to you that a country of 44 million people can't even kick out maybe 100k occupiers?
And isn't it a bit strange that Ukraine used to be the third largest arms producer in the world, yet now they're getting a few rifles sent over from places like the US?

Right, because all Ukrainians are just totally irrational—they should probably just launch offensive strikes without any air support so they can get absolutely massacred by fighter jets in broad daylight. That makes perfect sense.

They’re doing exactly what they need to do. Meanwhile, you’ve got this "great patriot" Putin sending his own kids off like sheep to the slaughter. Literally. He just doesn't care. It's disgusting. Americans might be one way or another, but at least they look out for their own. Take the Gulf War, for example—they lost maybe 300 people. The Russians are already up in the thousands. This guy treats his own people like stray dogs; he doesn't even bother bringing his dead home. It's bottom of the barrel stuff.
