Right. But if I wanted an Omega I'd buy a Rolex.YellowSnow said:
Yes, a Seamaster Pro or Speedmaster costs more than a Tudor BB '58. But @BleachedAnusDawg doesn't have an Omega for the running joke here.Doog_de_Jour said:
But what will @YellowSnow complain about then? 😉BleachedAnusDawg said:I know @YellowSnow knows this, but I'm pretty sure most shitty Omegas cost more than a BB58. Wait for a shit ski season that you can skip out on and then use that money on the next watch.
(Love ya Yella!)
For the record, I'm still intrigued by the Blue Dial Pelogos. -

The MILFs at the country club would love it. -
This thread went from gladiator movies to being in the navy to watches.

Alas, the skiing is on hold until the other side of the year. The radiator in the whip started pissing coolant all over the compartment. FML.YellowSnow said:
It's never gonna happen for me @BleachedAnusDawg . Sad. I'm a loser.Doogles said:

@BennyBeaver we're taking the family to London for Spring Break. Gonna take a choo choo down to Portsmouth to tour the HMS Victory.BennyBeaver said:

Master really stands alone as the king of this genre. I can't think of another flick about age of wood and sail naval warfare that's even comparable. Seems like an underserved marketplace.Swaye said:
Most realistic depiction of "Ships were wood but the men were iron" naval cannon battles ever made and it isn't close.YellowSnow said:But still, this Crowe's 2nd best performance...
Rum, sodomy and the lash first.
We've already toured the HMS Surprise in San Diego- i.e., the boat used for filming in Master.
It's not just Mrs Snow's insatiable appetite for blowing money on travel. This season alone I will spend more on passes, lessons, gear than the cost of a Tudor BB '58. Add in new Mt Bikes, fly fishing gear and the White Wakanda lifestyle gets expensive.
The best I can hope for is to buy another shitty Omega and wait to inherit my old man's Coke GMT Master II.
@pawz where you at Pod? Queef some skiing talk outta that short brunette loving twat of yours.

Blue dial Tudor Pelogos is nails.

The sun set on the British empire 200+ years ago Yella. Those protestant pigs still worship at the alter of their king for Christ's sake. My people were writing poetry when those heathens were still inventing depression in winter caves.YellowSnow said:

People forget that REAL Protestant God punished the Romans for killing Jesus by turning them into greasy, Pope-slobbering Italians who flop at every opportunity.

After seeing the new AQOTWF I’m going to respectfully disagree with you. Also, fuck fighting in any sort of jungle.Swaye said:I cannot imagine anything scarier in war than being below decks manning a cannon and facing a broadside from 50 yards away. You had to have nerves of steel for that shit. I'd rather charge no man's land WWI style than do that.

@creepycoug you ignorant, swarthy half Moorish slut. I'll always defer to you in philosopher king matters, but you gotta leave La Historia to the expurts. Pax Britanica lasted from 1815 - 1914 (i.e., 108 years ago). And the sun truly didn't set until the Suez crisis when it became clear that the Brits were no longer a great power.creepycoug said:

Alas, you speak Engrish and send your kids to elite colleges founded by Protestants. We? won.
P.S. Spain still has a king. -

Decline and rot began before. You know it. I know it. The American people know it.

We? play the game as well as anyone.
P.S. Spain still has a king.
Yeah, but not a real one. -
Yeah, but they do do some things very, very, very well.coronabruin said:People forget that REAL Protestant God punished the Romans for killing Jesus by turning them into greasy, Pope-slobbering Italians who flop at every opportunity.
If I were to ever ex-pat myself, somewhere in Italy would be my comfort zone. I fucking LOVE Paris and the souwf of France, and of course I have an abiding affection for Spain. But I tire of the French pretty quickly, the Spanish ... eh, I've suffered the Gallegos my entire lifetim, and my grandmother, whom I loved dearly and with whom I spent a good chunk of my childhood, was a classically nutty Barcelonian. Probably explains a lot about me actually.
Italy and Italians are the right mix of old and new for me, miles of shoreline, Greek history without having to suffer Greece, relatively inexpensive (for the most part), beautiful women and great food.
Yeah, they're kinda fuck ups in a lot of ways ... at least the southern part of the country. But they're my kind of fuck ups.
I like to think of Italy as Mexico for sophisticated people.
