Riots

That's just the quality of humor I'd expect from someone involved with Robobo.

I think both sides suck compared to Europe, at least they come up for a good reason to fight.

Soccer?

I was talking about this in #tnl the other night. I mentioned how this must have the cabal of Parisian Marxists in the cafes going apeshit. The poor and unemployed rising up and demanding change!? Woohoo! Finally, they don't have to look as impotent and ignorant as they have in the past 50 years.

Of course, I don't expect any of them to go out and try to 'participate' in the revolution, but by god if you step into one of their cafes before brunch you WILL be rudely accosted and lectured. That is the revolutionary spirit, comrades; intellectuals smugly rattling off archaic ideologies while everything else (like say "democracy" or "the rule of law") falls to shit.

It's not the poor and unemployed rising up and demanding change, it's the poor and unemployed rising up and showing why they're poor and unemployed.

As far as I'm concerned, any group of people stupid enough to think that they'll migrate to France and not get treated like shit deserves whatever hardship they encounter.
'OMFG, the french people don't like us and won't give our dumb asses jobs!'
No shit.
They're french!

They should have gone to USA were I heard dumb asses can go as far as president (ok they will never get that far since they aren't real americans).

12th night: 'The Interior Ministry said 814 vehicles were torched overnight, a drop from 1408 the previous night'

I lost count and now have no clue what the car total is.

French cars suck anyway. Burning them is an improvement.

Hell no. That is a character from a British comedy series called "Little Britain", and I think I'm right to say it's the leading comedy series in the UK right now. You should check it out, it's all over bittorrent.
I'm not sure you'd find it funny though in America, a lot of the jokes are more to do with dialects and regions of Britain, although there is some stuff which is more general. Worth watching one episode anyway.

This is me btw.

In relation to the riots, my school has announced that no-one is to go out into Paris at night (that's where people go to drink, clubbing, etc), so it's getting pretty serious.
I also hear that there is a 10.30 curfew, but that was just word of mouth.
