To those folks over in Mostovac, both the Republicans and the Democrats are nothing more than masters of empty populism, aren't they? 🤣

You voted for them, and honestly, I know you well enough to see that coming. ☕

There’s a blue checkmark next to his name, so I guess he’s the real deal 🤔

It’s not like he needs to know—he could be asking anyone from Lesi to Morana or Ado Kožul

Casey White13 said:The keeper from Hoffe basically pulled off a miracle in the 93rd minute—some seriously clutch saves there. The ball just refused to go in; I guess fate decided Bayern wasn't scoring even if we played until Easter. 😛 Looking at the other matchups, it would’ve been way too much if all three of those hit in stoppage time. 😛

Yes, matches like that always fascinate me—those instances where it feels as though the ball just won't find its way into the goal, no matter how hard they try, even if they kept playing until the day after tomorrow. He put it perfectly, almost as if the universe itself had conspired against them. 😁

You know that feeling when FC Barcelona creates twenty clear chances, hits the woodwork multiple times, and the keeper makes nine miraculous stops? Those kinds of games really tend to happen when Valencia CF faces off against Real Madrid or Barca, and someone like Diego Alves just happens to be having the game of his life.

I remember watching Ajax-Den Haag maybe eleven or twelve years ago, and the memory still sticks with me; the goalkeeper made about twenty saves, Ajax hit the post two or three times, and they had several unbelievable misses, but sometimes, when things just aren't meant to go your way, you simply can't force it. 😁

Keith Miller30 said:Is it actually possible that this is his real profile? I seem to recall a press conference from just two or three years ago where he openly admitted he didn't even know how to turn on a computer. 🤣

Yeah, right—because he’d definitely never lie to us. 🙂

Look, I wasn't able to make it out there, but if I could have, yeah, I definitely would've cast my vote. Honestly, man, I really let myself hope that we finally, actually, finally landed a legitimate third option in this whole mess. Now I'm just sitting here wondering if they're all just completely incompetent or if they're just master manipulators playing us, and honestly, I can't even tell which of those two options above is more likely to be true.

There are some decent groups here, but they just don't have any real influence. I suppose having good ideas and integrity is fine, but it doesn't amount to much if you aren't in power, right?

Netherlands vs. Italy, UEFA Euro 2000

Look, these people have been in power at the Capitol for over a year now, and honestly, you'd think they could have gotten something moving by this point, but from where I'm sitting, it feels like they haven't accomplished a single thing, so feel free to set me straight if I've got that wrong, but it really looks like zero progress has been made.

And they haven't even handled the basic, common-sense stuff, like getting rid of those outdated red tape requirements, so you'd think they'd at least tackle the small, obvious things just to show they're working, but nothing.

Where on earth is the official seal?

Manu -everyone yesterday

If the ref hadn't called that penalty in the 94th minute, they never would have gotten it. One post, one breakaway, countless chances...

I didn't catch the Manchester United match yesterday, but if things unfolded exactly as you described, isn't this already the fifth or sixth time this season they've been victimized by a result like that in OT? It seems as though their goalkeeper always finds his rhythm, whether it's Jakupović, Boruc, Foster, Randolph, or just some other guy stepping up when it matters most.

This isn't anything new; we've dealt with much worse this season. I still vividly remember that match against Real Madrid back in 2013 during OT—Lopez played the damn game of his life.

Can we please just leave the football talk off of Reddit?

Amen

Where’s Soso at? They used to drop stuff like this in my Facebook DMs every single day, making everything look so much better.

He’s finally growing up, Soso...

Well, I suppose Dobrović is actually a top expert in his field here in the States, but it's hard to focus on organizing waste collection and recycling when people like the Bandis are running the cities. Orepić also seems like a pretty practical guy, I guess.

If you take the latest polls at face value, it seems like that era might finally be coming to an end. ☕

Cut the whole "it's better this way than that" nonsense, just give us some actual, concrete details about what they've actually accomplished, anything at all, just share whatever hope you're holding onto with the rest of us.

They finally sent Karamarko into retirement.

That bandit is seizing control of the race again—and doing it without a single ad campaign or any media appearances. ☕

And who’s going to step up next? That dark force? Or maybe Elvis—who is everyone obsessed with anyway? She hasn't even spoken in Parliament, and honestly, even Bozeman could go around visiting sites of old communist crimes.
