Interest in European Lifestyles

[derek]

I'd say it's pretty awesome. I'm not an OMG SCANDANAVIA metal fan, though, I just happen to like it.

There are both up and downsides with Sweden, allround it's okay I guess.

 

[Dead Winter]

I wouldn't recommend Italy unless you're just fascinated with Italian culture.

 

[DarkNoise]

I wouldn't recommend the USA unless you're an invalid. Like myself...

 

[Galiral]

half of my bosses at work are ex-metalhead

 

[Dead Winter]

Haha, not for the metal part. If you want to be around a bunch of metalheads, then by all means come to Italy!!!

I was saying that it's kinda hard to just up and move to Italy if you don't know the culture, language, and way of life. It's not like moving to Canada or Australia.

 

[Captain Beard]

Who the fuck moves to Australia?

 

[Dead Winter]

Just about everyone now...it's quite literally the greatest place to live on earth as far as quality of life.

I'll pass, though. Too many fucking dirty hippies.

 

[Captain Beard]

And privacy laws worse than ours. Not quite UK yet, but god damnit, they're trying.

There's also the near fact that EVERY FUCKING ANIMAL THERE IS EITHER POISONOUS OR VENOMOUS.

 

[Dead Winter]

Calling out their privacy laws is like being afraid of a mouse when there's a rhinoceros in the room. They have great universities, great jobs with great pay, a great social system, and it's every bit as modern as the US. I don't know about you, but I'll gladly allow the government to take a peek at my personal history if it means just about every other aspect of my life is amazing. They pay high taxes, but the government actually helps them out and makes their lives better.

But I agree with you on their wildlife...fuck those gigantic fucking spiders.

 

[Captain Beard]

My personal style is "Leave me the fuck alone, you'll get your taxes and that's it."

I even make sure nothing directly shows up about me online in case potential employers get snoopy.

I should move to New Mexico, they're all like that there.

 

[Dead Winter]

I've been to Roswell...that place is fucked up.

 

[Captain Beard]

I have too, didn't like it. I meant Albuquerque. They were all really nice, the people I met.
