Wow! Bendy buses and everything! Not sure I want to smell donkey bonky though.

Originally posted by sven They way I see it, in Pyongyang everyone drives a mercedes or a beamer, and in South Corea, they all walk!

They walk and they walk through miles of concrete and neon, up cobblestone alleys past rivers of vomit, dreary leavings of the souls and the hearts of the room salons, noraebangs, and whorehouses.

There were times I would lie awake at night and wish for KJ1's Korea.

Originally posted by spongebob There's a funny documentary by a Polock (I don't know his name) from when he went to North Korea. It's quite funny, and I believe it comes in 12 parts. He poked fun at how there are ZERO traffic problems in North Korea. The North Korea government is actually quite smart. They are KINGS/royalty in their own country AND they get the USA and South Korea to pay their food and other bills for them!!!

I was going to try to say something witty about this, but all I'm thinking is, no sh*t.  They're geniuses, I would work for them tomorrow if they would take my fiancee as a pair.

"the supreme leader" has it really good, but I don't know about the actual people who live there and pay for the extravagant lifesyles of the people in power. Go ahead and take a girlfriend/wife to the PRK. If she is hot, she will most likely end up in one of the supreme leader's love brigades

I think that the US is repressive and brainwashes Americans to be "sheeple" but I think it 1.000x worse in North Korea.

Wow, so degrading on America. Yet I see almost everything here is usually American. American tv, American music, American clothes, etc. I'm not tooting my own horn, being an American or saying we are perfect. I was just surprised to see this love with our culture when I got here. I was expecting to be absorbed in Brazilian culture and now everyone wants to speak to me in english, play me horrible American music and point out every McDonald's we see.
I'm not saying America is without flaws, but I do sometimes long for the days of orderly chaos, semi-bad drivers, and politicans at least trying to hide the corruption.

Tark, when you file for the RNE make sure to get a letter from the PF saying you can work. Then you can go get your working card. Don't worry about the crap they are giving you, I waited until I started the RNE to work too. If you can afford it, there is no harm in waiting. Just be prepared to keep yourself busy.
