Here is the full speech it is incoherent and crazy just like P and R !
Bro, bro, listen to the kids. Jeremy, I got to put it down for a second, it's beautiful, Jeremy Scott designed... First of all, thank you Taylor for being so gracious and giving me this award this evening. And I often think back to the first day that I met you. Also, you know, I think about when I'm in the grocery store with my daughter and I have a really great conversation about fresh juice, you know, and at the end they say, "You're not that bad after all." And I think about it sometimes, like it crosses my mind when I go to a baseball game and 60,000 people boo me. It crosses my mind a little bit. And I think, if I had to do it all again, what would i have done? Would I have worn a leather shirt? Would I have drank half a bottle of Hennessy and given the rest to the audience? Y'all know you drank that bottle too. If I had a daughter at that time, would I have went on stage and grabbed the mic from someone else's... You know this arena, tomorrow, it's gonna be a completely different set up or something like that. This stage will be gone. After that night, the stage will be gone, but the effect it had on people will remain. The problem was the contradiction. The contradiction is: I do fight for artists, but in that fight I somehow was disrespectful to artists. I didn't know how to say the right thing, the perfect thing. I just... I sat at the Grammys and saw Justin Timberlake and Cee-Lo lose. Gnarls Barkley and the Future Sex album... Justin, I ain't trying to put you on blast but I saw that man in tears, bro. And I was thinking like, he deserves to win album of the year. And this small box that we are in as the entertainers of the evening. How could you explain that? Sometimes I feel like, you know, all this *** that they run about beef and all that, sometimes I feel like I died for the artist's opinion. For the artists to be able to have an opinion after they were successful. I'm not no politician, bro. And look at that. You know how many times MTV ran that footage again? 'cause it got them more ratings. You know how many times they announced that Taylor was gonna give me the award? 'cause it got them more ratings. Listen to the kids, bro. I still don't understand award shows. I don't understand how they get five people who worked their entire life one sold records, sold concert tickets, to come stand on a carpet and for the first time in their life be judged on a chopping block and have the opportunity to be considered a loser. I don't understand it, brah. I don't understand when the biggest album and the biggest video... I've been conflicted, bro! I just wanted people to like me more. *** it bro. Two thousand and fifteen. I will die for the art, for what I believe in. The art ain't always gonna be polite. Y'all might be thinking right now, "I wonder, did he smoke something before he came here?" The answer is yes, I rolled up a little something to knock the edge off. I don't know what's gonna happen tonight. I don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow, bro. But all I can say to my artist, my fellow artist, just worry about how you feel at the time man. Just worry about how you feel and don't never... I'm confident, I believe in myself. We the millennials, bro. This is a new mentality. We're not gonna control our kids with brands. We're not gonna teach low self esteem and that to our kids. We gonna teach our kids that they can be something. We're gonna teach our kids that they can stand up for themselves. We're gonna teach our kids to believe in themselves. If my grandfather was here right now he would not let me back down. I don't know what I'm finna lose after this, but don't matter though cause it's not about me. It's about ideas bro, new ideas bro. People with ideas. People who believe in truth. And yes, as you probably could have guessed by this moment, I have decided in 2020 to run for president. So here's a question to ponder. A friend of mine and I had this conversation the other day. The situation is hypothetical, but could be possible.
So this friend, let's call him Jesus. (Side note he briefly changed his name on Facebook to Jesus Christ and it pissed off some people, lol. It was all in Serbian Cyrillic, btw.) Ok anyway, Jesus' mom lives in Germany. Jesus is a Serbian citizen. Birth of course. Ok so he's looking for a better way to make some dough and finds out that he can work in Germany for 3 months then has to return to Serbia for 3 months and repeat. This is due to some EU laws, etc. Now if he decides to get an actual job in Germany, rather than working under the table, Jesus would be responsible for reporting his income and paying taxes to Germany. Now if he decided to say screw it and not pay taxes, since Jesus is working on the books, there's a high chance they could eventually catch him. Now if he gets caught he would have to pay a fine. However, in some cases he could be banned from entering the EU for life. They would also deport him to his home country when he's in the EU. Now here's the conundrum. If he happens to get banned from the EU and say in 2022 (big if here as they keep pushing the date 2 years every year) if Serbia joins the EU, what would happen to Jesus?

That's not how it works. 95% is the standard for a lot of experiments, but Floppy seemed to be referencing the entirety of anthropomorphic climate change research as if it were a single hypothesis with 95% confidence. I highly doubt that's the case. To the defenders of the religion, that's nearly 100% (97%), while us realists understand that it's more like 17% (97% x 63% x 28%). Point that out to the zealots, and you suddenly become a denier. Offline

I'm not sure I'm drunk enough to respond to a Jesus living in Serbia !
I'm sure there are benefits for Serbia joining the EU though. While you think about it I got to write a short article (250-300 words) on the debate over the geographical origin of Aryans.

Don't know about EU tax law too much (just the basics and intermediate level, only things pertaining to US citizens), but if there is a statute of limitations on such things, he only has to pay back taxes (plus interest/penalties) for the years he earned income. Meaning if he only earned income in 2016, and Serbia joins in 2022, statue of limitations is 6 years (in the case of fraud, which is what the US statue is), they has about a year for them to bring it up before the statue expires (again, in the US, the expiration date is April 15th of the following year, the day the taxes are due). Highly unlikely they will pursue it... Long story short, pretty much nothing. Offline

It was mainly about the Vedic and Harappan civilizations, archaeological evidence, and Indigenous Aryan theory versus the Indo-Aryan Migration theory. Had to toss Indo-Iranians in there too. Talk about fact cramming.
You say the salad tastes like *[bark]* and the potatoes were very *[grrrr]*. This reads like it was written by a dog.
Predictions on when Hillary will eventually crumble and have to bow out?
I think right around Iowa, maybe a week or two after. Despite what's going on now, 14 months away from the general election, statistically it's unlikely there will be another Democrat as President this go around.
Trump as the candidate, ~10% chance. Too early to tell though. According to statistics that I don't even know if they exist, and if they do I didn't read them, Trump has a very high chance at becoming prez.

Valefor.Sehachan said: » According to statistics that I don't even know if they exist, and if they do I didn't read them, Trump has a very high chance at becoming prez. No he doesn't. Trump does not have the appeal to reel in your independent voters. He does have a high chance of running as a third party candidate and undermining whoever the (R) turns out to be. The (D)s currently are scrambling to either retrofit Clinton II: Electric Boogaloo or take their chances on a candidate with little broad appeal in Sanders. It's a shitstew in both camps right now. The mainstream (R)s don't have a candidate to throw money behind as Jeb is beleaguered by Trump, Christies in a bodybag, Rubio lacks broad appeal and the (D)s are looking at Biden because Clinton II is looking piss poor. Everyone else on team (R) is currently looking bad and I have no confidence in a Biden presidency. He's the guy you want running support, he's got tons of that experience being up on the hill for decades but as the frontman? Naw bro. Woosh..!!
