***********************************************************
There was an anecdote told by my former CO about a debate at the Argentine Escuela Naval Militar several years after their pathetic failure to defend the Islas Malvinas against the British 1982 invasion.
The specific topic was — what mistakes, large or small, did the Argentines make that led to the humiliating defeat? The debate was heated and furious. Tempers were at the boiling point. Finally, one of the participants turned to Rear Admiral Jorge Allara, the first Argentine official that had demanded (Unsuccessfully, by the way.) that the islands surrender. “Jorge,” he said, “you were there. Why did we lose the war?” to which Allara replied, “I always thought the English pirates had something to do with it.”
Quoting to the best of my my memory, our CO remarked ”The moral of the story to be learned about our Argentine brothers are three points: 1. They are their own worst enemy. 2. They alway fail to recognize their own mistakes. 3. They always blame their failures were caused by someone else.
@13 .....And the Falkland Islanders don't forget them, those 3000 wretches are causing mayhem, if only she could have them, every thing would be OK.

Argentina is like the two-star motel in comparison (according to you “travelled” northerners). A manager in that hotel that gets the same level of complaints is actually a success, because he has FAR fewer resources at his command.

Actually I am. I think governments and people are exactly the same. So I have no problem with you insulting Argentines for their government. But what you all do is insult argentines for being ARGENTINE. Slight syntactical change, huge actual difference.
I have said many times here Argentina has no future, and it's not coming back economically, because the people are not capable of doing the things required (studying 24 hours a day, working productively 6-8 hours a day, abstaining from sexual activities with females, learning vocabulary words, and only drinking 4 liters of wine per year).
Chicureo was that “feet” reference supposed to be an insult imply that teenage feet equates to penis size, or something to that effect? I am sure you must be crushed by is savvy and witty, yet juvenile posts.

Sep 15th, 2014 - 09:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0About two or three years ago, Think interrogated me as a newcomer and accused me of being a non-Spanish speaking Gringo. After a brief correspondence in Spanish, he questioned an earlier statement that I'd made how Chilean were physically different from their Argentine sisters. In a very cordial interchange, he agreed that the ladies across the Andes were generally taller with bigger breasts and feet. He agreed. (Despite being on completely opposite political beliefs, I passed the Think Chilean Navy legitimacy test.)
Years later, our boy here, who has repeatedly states that he has no sexual desire for Argentine women, keeps bringing up the shoe size difference...
A coup is in order. Justice will mean the public execution of CFK and fat Maximo for crimes against humanity

Sep 15th, 2014 - 09:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So you are proud that your CFK and her government are a complete failure. Silly of you, but can't argue that they are failure. But what is sad is that already, at your tender, immature, juvenile age , at which your testicles still haven't made an appearance, you are totally disenchanted with your own country and it's future. You see, that is where I, and I suspect, most of the rational posters on here, probably disagree with you. In my opinion, the Argentine could be viable, but first you've got to get rid of Cristina and all her “Peronista” cronies, who for years have been milking the Argentines for their own, exclusive benefit. And don't try to read into this, what isn't here.
Now, as to the reasons why you claim Argentina has no future :-
“because the people are not capable of doing the things required (studying 24 hours a day, working productively 6-8 hours a day, abstaining from sexual activities with females”............Well, well, well, so you're advocating that men should abstain from sexual activities with females.... So, either you want to have sex with other men....or you must be one ugly female that can't find a man stupid enough to “do” you ....You ARE screwed up !!!

I've been resting along the central California coast and I'm shocked with all the otherwise beautiful ladies with tattoos. Not the typical butterfly or discrete flower on the ankle, but massive tattoos. Really destroys girl watching.
We were with a delightful first generation Mexican American student for Sunday's lunch, who could not speak more than perhaps five words in Spanish. She told us that her mother didn't want her to grow up with a “stigma”...

He didn't say that, YOU did. And you are right at least on the shoe size. And some time ago that was corroborated when a person online that works at a major Miami shoe store told me that the Argentine tourist women ask for size 40 and 41 much more than the Brazilian or Colombian women that usually ask for 38. That's a big difference and as I told you my cousin has very large feet for a woman (45), and I have very large feet for a male at size 50. I ALWAYS speak the truth, no matter what it is or how unflattering. I have always said the Falklands should be British, always said Argentina is in irreversible decline... don't you people give me credit for saying those things? No.
So when I say the British are the ultimate hypocrites and along with the Euros the ultimate criminals of history, it's because they are. When I say NorthAmoans are heartless bastards for shooting themselves and their children and kids in schools and universities, and utterly ignorant and monolingual that is all true. I am the descendant of the Truth Telling Troll after all. Truth is intrinsic to my being.

You can't disappoint when you are exercising self-control over your sexuality. I don't talk about sex EVER, as you may have all noticed. Never speak in sexual terms. That's part of the self-control. Unfortunately yes, I have a 50 in foot size as does my cousin a 45 for a woman. Tell me something to write on a piece a paper and I'll take a picture to prove it. As you may have also noticed I also don't find it particularly attractive in women. Anyway, no one is perfect, though I do come close.

Dear Sir,
You do have a tendency to geographically lump collective inhabitants (NorthAmoans?) in order to achieve convenient, but most certainly dishonest generalizations. Although, I will acknowledge that I really didn't know to whom (what group) you were making the comparison; or maybe it was just an observation in general? Regardless:
Argentina's murder rate (5.5/100K) is actually higher than the USA (4.7/100k) and well over three times that of Canada (1.6/100K).
37.7% of Canadians speak a first language other than English (23.2% French; 14.5% other).
58.6 % of Canadians are fluently bilingual (English and a second language).
Cheers,
Manny

Most dishonest police

None of those are true, first because they are lies. Second, because there is not one “serious” international ranking where Argentina is last“, so by nature it can't be the ”most ______” of a negative category.

@63
I am far more repulsed by the thought of entering a “relationship”. I will never risk my current inert emotional state (never too happy but never too sad), by handing it over into the hands of a woman, who by nature is a more emotional being. That would be handing the matchbox to a pyromaniac. I am not against sexual activity. I am against engaging in them for a 5-10 year period in order to build character and to be able to meet your grand goals. My grand goals are well-known here.

And you still don't get that it takes courage to admit your fears. That is something that has been admired in all societies throughout history. I admit my fear. That does not mean that even if I lost that fear, I would want a relationship. I am genuinely not interested in one at this time. Is it a crime to want to be single now too?
It is VERY courageous to admit not to travel here, because it puts me at a HUGE disadvantage when arguing with you all. I could just simply have lied and said I have been everywhere. Do you think me or my cousin are proud of are very large foot size? We dislike it. That's also courageous to admit.
How about telling other Argentines that the Falklands should be left to the British? Do you think that is not courageous?
You people obviously don't appreciate courage, or honesty. You like to be lied to.

Another claims to have seen 48 countries (Anglotino), etc, etc.
You really are quite an imbecile if you believe that I will buy your story that all of that is just “average middle class” UK, US, EU fare. You are so sad for thinking I'm that ignorant for never having been there.
I know that if you tell any average American or Brit or European the things I have been told here, you would be classed as the Bourgeuois, as the one-percenters.
Stop trying to convince me that the average US, EU, UK person has a net worth of over 1 million, owns a yacht and beachfront, has been to 40 plus countries, and on and on and on... it is beyond sad you people have to pretend like that to feel good about your countries.
@77 Let's take that one point at a time.
Sep 16th, 2014 - 03:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You are absolutely wrong to claim that everyone here is judged on their wealth, or lack of it. It is too ridiculous as no one can prove or disprove a person's wealth on this forum. People are judged by the content of their posts; nothing more. It is your inferiority complex and shame at being poor that leads you to that conclusion when in fact it is what you post that causes negative responses.
This is the first time you have admitted to fearing women and rejection. Until now you have just made sweeping derogatory statements about all women. And stated that you are too superior for a relationship. You can't expect kudos for that attitude.
It is not courageous to admit you have never travelled. To pretend would easily be exposed and make you look more of a tit. To blatantly rubbish places you have never travelled to and have little knowledge of is foolish, makes you look a twat and invites more negative responses. Again, you are allowing an unnecessary feeling of inferiority to cloud your judgement.
The big foot issue seems to be huge for you. Why is it courageous? Unless you are four feet tall I suspect they are in proportion to your body and you notice them more than anyone else. Other than having difficulty buying shoes, I cannot see it as an impairment to your life so why should you be applauded for mentioning it.
You have always expressed the opinion that the Falklands should remain British and, until recently, that you dislike the current government. When people attack you for it I remind them. But it is not courageous to post a comment on here. It is just typing an opinion on a keyboard with no impact on your life whatsoever.
Finally, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being single. What is wrong is your attitude to women and inability to form relationships on any level.
Toby, I am middle class and everything I've ever said on here is true. I never said I go to Paris or Milan for a weekend. I said London because its easy for me to get there from the East Coast. I also said I don't do it now because the Pound is too high to make it enjoyable.
Sep 16th, 2014 - 03:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0London is 5 hours its easy and cheap to fly to. Right now I can fly to Oslo for $699 RT. That's my next trip to stay in an ice hotel. I've always wanted to do it and this winter is the time.
You live in a very remote place so you'll never understand. It would take you 2 days and probably a years wage to got to London for a week.
You'll never know what its like and the majority of your life you've lived when your economy was doing well. The bad part is the rest of your life it will always be worse than what you've already experienced.
Sad but true.
@84 I am definitely middle-class and have worked for every penny I have. I was gifted a good education and the wits to use it, nothing more. I doubt anyone on here is a trust-fund beneficiary.

TTT cannot fathom the ability to become wealthy because of the society he lives in. It doesn't want the poor to become middle-class because their government could not exploit them. Maybe if he put two and two together he would understand why people want to go to developed countries. Because the possibility is there for hard workers to have a good life.
TTT, you focus a lot on things that you are sensitive to. You have cherry-picked comments that make you envious and blown them out of proportion. It is not a good way to be. Focus on making the best of your life, be brave enough to risk rejection and failure, and you could make something of yourself.

Sep 16th, 2014 - 04:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Of course people here are judged on wealth. Weathy = worthy, not wealthy = gum under your sneaker. That is exactly the prevalent attitude here. If that was not true, then people here would be praising Argentina in some level. No one does. So either you are lying or you believe in the concept of absolutely negativity (i.e. that something can have no redeeming qualities).
People here ALWAYS make this comparison: Argentina today vs Argentina 100 years ago. Argentina today =bad, Argentina 100 = good.
What is the major and only difference between then and now? Money
So the conclusion is obvious. The fact you are trying to deny it is laughable.
Fearing a relationship with a woman and thinking I am superior for one are not mutually exclusive. I don't there is a woman out there that could reach the same level of honesty.
You really underestimate the power of the internet, and of story telling. I know many people that have travelled, seen many pictures, read books, learned geography, google. I could fake it quite well. I just never chose to. Unlike most of you who claim to know Mendoza, but have been caught in such gross innacuracies and been called out on them that if you haven't noticed almost no one claims to have been here in quite a while, unlike at the beginning of my arrival. And for the record, while I'm not short, I'm certainly not a basketball player, so yes I have large feet for my size, so it is somewhat noticeable when paid attention to. Same with my cousin. And yes we cannot find shoes large enough, there was this place called Hormagrand on San Martin Avenue, me and her would have to go there because we needed women and men shoes way larger than what stores sold. For a girl like my cousin it is difficult her shoes being so much larger than other girls.
@84
Sure, middle class. I'm going to ask a fashion magazine how many middle class homes they have featured recently. hahahaha.
TTT, you really are not as honest as you claim.

You are way too focused on your big feet. I doubt most people would notice unless you walked around in clown shoes to draw attention to them. It is a pity there are such restrictions on imports as there are many online outlets for outsized clothing.
You should try dazzling people with your wit and charm and your feet would be irrelevant.
Really, TTT, try to adjust your concept of middle-class.

Sep 16th, 2014 - 05:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I really am not interested in whether you were in Mendoza or not.

You can deny it all you want but you most certainly do give your ”stories' a slant to fit whatever your point is (Chile is great, Argentina horrible... Europe this, Argentina that).
I'm not discussing our shoe size any longer. I don't expect you to understand what my cousin an I have been through, since you cannot relate. I never said it was life-destroying, but it is quite problematic on several levels.
My cousin is very normal young woman, fairly tall, and plays volleyball and cestobol. She is very social and so she has no problems beyond what I have mentioned.
I choose not to be social, I choose to study, and study some more. I find trying to charm people utterly irrelevant and a waste of time. I detest small talk and the “dating” game. I find it all such a waste of precious time. If people have to be “impressed” to fall for you, then they are no good to begin with. That's why in the western world (I include Argentina for this one time), the divorce rate is between 55 and 70%. That is appalling but exactly the result of what I just said.

One question though, why do you insist on using words that no normal person would use colloquially ? .....asseverations, sublunary, noetic, ribald verbiage, generaliations, obnubilations ?? to sound intelligent ?? the art of writing, or speaking, is to keep it simple while not losing content......you accuse us of “verbiage”, i.e., verbosity....isn't that exactly what you are doing, not to mention that in your frustrated rage, you invent words ?

So, your cousin does not use her large feet as an excuse to be unsociable, good for her. You clearly have no idea how to function in society so you are best left in isolation to simmer in envy and regret. You will never know the joy of loving and being loved, of spending time with great friends or the pleasures of meeting new people. That is your loss and it doesn't make you superior, is makes you strange.
I don't say Chile good, Argentina bad. That is you cherry-picking to feed your inferiority complex. I have said many times that I love Argentina but not the government or that people are gullible enough to vote them in. That is a mile away from calling the place horrible. I am honest about its problems unlike you. Chile has problems too and I have discussed them often here. You don't seem to get involved in those discussions or chose to remember them.
You brought up people visiting Mendoza and I responded that I had visited last year. Stop trying to dismiss it now you have an answer you don't like.
TTT, you have so many problems I sincerely hope you get some help before your life passes you by and you spend old age alone and in regret.
Edit? You tell your stories, and your stories have always the end result of placing anything Argentina-related at a lower level, at a disadvantage, or in an inferior position to something else. That is your MO. Sorry, I just call it like it is. My cousin was made fun of (and she is by no means unnatractive), for her foot length. She suffered over it. I personally never forgive, whether its people or entire countries, I never forgive even if the crime occurred long ago. To forgive is weak, that is the difference between me and her. Why should Europe be forgiven for the Slave trade? or colonialism? of the World Wars? Those are FAR FAR FAR worse than some billion dollars in debt default but the case is made that Argentina is more EVIL for this than Europe for the above. This world has completely lost any shread of morality and sanity it had, with values like those.

Calling me a prick, weirdo... if that's just recalling, then I shudder to think how you treat people when holding a grudge. Well, you are a woman.
It is quite funny you think what you think. I don't socialize because I am learning 8 language, 120.000 words, plus all the other “normal” courses. In spite of all I have said, ultimately that is the reason I don't go out, I just have no time. And I have no time because I have no interest in small talk and impressing others. That's partly why I don't like Argentine women, they like to be impressed: through clothes, shoes, etc. I can't find trendy shoes, and I think the fact I can't wear “nike” most of the time in a way helped me evolve this anti-Brand Name attitude. I have said this many times before talking about my large feet, that I never buy clothes “brand name”. I find it ridiculous. I have also said I'll never buy apple products, same reason. And like that many other things.
It is such a shallow livelihood most people including you all here engage in... brand names, money, image, dazzle. So superficial.

I think the low self- esteem is the key to his stand against sex.
He has such a low estimation of self- worth, “ no woman would want me” (right Nostrils???), that he tries to kid us and edpecially himself, that it is not something he should experience.

Sep 17th, 2014 - 01:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why single me out?
Sep 17th, 2014 - 01:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Based on Spanish and English accounts, some of the natives in Patagonia had extremely large foot sizes. Perhaps that's partly why many Argie girls have big feet: big feet ancestors + European genetics + diet heavy in beef. Also, the largest “big foot” advocacy group in the world is Argentine. The woman at 1:20 is a good example at 43 (US size 12), she obviously is a Euro + native mix:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr76ah5dY8o
So based on all this evidence plus my own observations PLUS the infallible observations of Chichureo (and the fact that Think agreed), yes, for whatever reason SOME argies both guys and girls have quite a larger foot size compared to others (without being particularly tall). One Japanese woman said in Japan it is the opposite and that she was shocked at the sizes of some people's feet.
IT's just the way it is, I tell the truth about my country good or embarrassing. Something none of you can ever do.
@146 Victim, I don't believe a word of your nonsense about your feet.
Sep 17th, 2014 - 02:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As for Argentines being known for having gigantic feet, it is just too ridiculous. You seem to forget many of us have lived in Argentina. It may be that there is a tribe of Argentines in Mendoza with unusually large feet but Buenos Aires, where I lived, it was the opposite. Most people living there are of Italian and Spanish origin and the shoe shops stock accordingly. Smaller than average. Similar in the clothes shops.
I can only say one thing about feet and Argentina. I have a wide foot.....2E or 3E depending on the makers...Allen Edmonds seem to be the most consistent size....but I digress as we all do. I tried to buy shoes in Bs As City and could not because they are all too thin like damned pencils.

@149 “I don't give a shit what you think.” Clearly you do.
Sep 17th, 2014 - 02:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0And BTW, you think you are going to foist that story about sizes?
Sep 17th, 2014 - 03:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0First of all, if you really had lived in Argentina, you would know store clothing sizes are very small, and certainly not the average for many people, especially women. And this has been a major societal discussion for many years.
The fact you don't even know about such an obvious topic to anyone that spends more than 5 minutes in Argentina (the “law of sizes” debate), and that you just dismissed it as “due to Italian/Spanish people”.... is a major “gotcha” moment. Either you live in a cave when spending all those long months in Argentina, or you clearly are lying.
Second, you know why to the British continental European sizing may seem smaller. It's not because you are taller vertically, but rather this:
http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/britain-is-the-fattest-nation-in-europe-8324262.html
And don't even try to debate this away. Everyone knows the British are clearly far more overweight than the much thinner mainland French, Germans, Italians, Swedes, Dutch, etc, even most Brits admit. So of course a shirt size may be small when you need 1/3 extra circumference.
How do you explain such a lack of basic knowledge on current events in Argentina huh? (and really, this is not a current even, as mentioned, the lack of proper sizes in Argentine clothing stores is an issue of the last decade!)

A TOO STUPID ADICTION.
Sep 20th, 2014 - 10:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A few monthes ago i said that although i don't think that the numbers that polls often publish should be ignored, it would be too stupid to make a religion of them. It's well known that the numbers of many of them are usually distorted on behalf of those who pay for them. In the case of management and it, it publishes similar results in relation to c. f. k's imagen every year, even it said in 2011 that in the presidential election, there was going to be a ballotage, however reality in that year was much different, beside, the numbers among all polls are always very different. Anyway, if anybody wants to believe in them, it's respectable, in my opinion, it's a too stupid adiction.
I only believe in the result of elections, which show that even after 11 years of rulling argentina, f. p. v. is still the most voted political force from argentina, as we could see during legislative elections of last year, although some people don't like it, where c. f. k.'s party got the 32% of votes, with ten points of difference with the second one, this is something that not many political parties around the world can achieve.
I know that many ignorants will say now that c. f.k's party lost 32 points of support, in comparison to the 54,11% got by her in the presidential election. It actualy happens because many people who don't know so much about politic, give ignorant opinions about issues which are too different, in fact, most leaders suffer a lose of votes in legislative elections, due to our people don't vote with the same criterion in a presidential election, than in a legislative one, but not many leaders can achieve that their parties continue to be the main political force of the country.
Although it's imposible to know who will win next year, i can only say that whoever wins, won't be able to dismantle everything that kirchnerism has given to people in all these years, because they have already empowered of all the achievements, which is wonderful.
