As a child growing up in that beautiful country that was called Yugoslavia elders had many nice sayings that I also found later in ancient Roman expressions that ring true for all eternity. One was "Lijepa rijec gvozdena vrata otvara" or "Nice word opens iron doors". I see some of your can not control your balkanoid genes and have to resort to crude words as soon as you get a bit emotional (which basically to me means child-like) and resort to crude words. Whatever your opinions are you have not adapted them or created them over night but over time. If you are projecting your ideas upon others they will not absorb them (if they ever will) instantly (as neither have you). Resorting to crude language will only bring a mental block in the viewers as it represents child-like behavior and not something to be taken seriously. Thus even if serious points were made previously such crude remarks will effectively erase the importance of any reasonable assessments as the angered person will just become more defensive and thus more emotional (and again, more child-like themselves). In other words, GROW UP AND WRITE LIKE AN ADULT(regarding the manner in which you express yourself) PS: Also some common courtesy would not hurt. For instance, lets say you are walking down the street and and see someone you do not find visually pleasing. I doubt you will approach them and state your observation. Rather, you are far likelier to keep it to yourself. Here another one of elders expressions comes to mind "Ispeci pa reci" (=Think before talking). Wow, its like babysitting here.  |

I know, who wants to be a civilized adult when you can be a perpetual child.
Seriously, Hellboy, it is long time that you were a teenager.

Hellboy I will delete your responses here since they don't serve in any way the message that I have posted.
I am repeating, I am TIRED freaken babysitting adults. I am not asking for too much. I want people to act like adults and be responsible for their words. I am not interested in baby-sitting kids but only in dealing and seeing adults write here.
I would rather have ten adults here then 10,000 kids.

To be honest with you, the reason why I come here is to not-control my Balkanoid "gene". Better we go off here, then anywhere else if you ask me, then again I don't live in the Balkans. If I did, I probably wouldn't bother with this forum.  |

I am old enough.
I am not saying to control the balkanoid gene and become always pleasant but to be more thoughtful in the manner in which one expresses themselves versus simplistic and crude one liners.

Where exactly? This always baffles me when I hear this opinion. I grew up there in the 80's too and I never felt really connected to the entity known as 'Yugoslavia.' I hardly even knew what Yugoslavia was and when my people would talk about other Yugoslavs we always used 'oni' and 'njihovo' instead of 'mi' and 'nase.' I'm not saying we hated Yugo but we didn't think much of it, at least in the part of Slavonia, Croatia I was in.
I talk to other Ex-Yugos and they ask me ' Remember the good old days of Yugo...etc etc' as if this was some universal shared sentiment among all average people in Yugoslavia. It wasn't. A lot of us could care less about it but we didn't really make a fuss because it would've been dangerous to do so. We merely accepted the situation as it was but that's a far cry from being proud of the Federal government.

LOL when has hellboy87 cause s**t in this place? He's pleasent character from what I gather.
@ priso; what the hell man. All aadmin said is that he grew up in a beautiful country called Yugoslavia, is that wrong? Actually that's more correct in saying he grew up in a beautiful country called Montenegro or Serbia, actually by you saying you were born in the country of Croatia is wrong, Croatia (as a country) did not exist back then. So are you taking a shot at him for being specific or is this another one of your "yugoslavia-sux" rant, you saw the oppertunity and took it. Sometimes I wonder whether you are the one who is Yugo nostalgic. You seem more effected by that idea than others' here.
