It's an ambiguous statement that can be interpreted in various ways. If you don't want to explain what you meant, fine.

Plisbardhi, What exactly am I confused about? I just don't think you can comprehend the level I'm trying to take this conversation to. Toskali earlier on stated so eloquently the issues HE SEES around him; You guys can talk about your democracy, where the bar is and where we as people are headed. But what most of you seem to forget is that this has been the same for almost a thousand years. Our lifestyles have no changed, and technology has only made it more complicated. So again I am going to ask; In the above quote, what exactly has changed over, say 800 years or so? I think lifestyles have changed dramatically over the last 30 years, let alone 800. I think the stress that comes along with todays capitalism has made people become more for themselves and less family oriented. I see it when I go to Gostivar let alone the states. I remember as a kid, it seemed as if every relative would come out of the woodwork when we arrived to see us. Its just not like that anymore. The only way you get to see everyone now is at a wedding. Its like people have become mentally worn out and don't want to be bothered because of their own problems.

Its like people have become mentally worn out and don't want to be bothered because of their own problems. The "stress" of todays capitalism is thanks to our advancement in technology. No one has time anymore b/c everything is now moving so fast. Banking, social networking, the information sector- these things have changed, but the meanings are exactly the same. If the internet didn't exist these talks would be done in kafanas, or one of our homes, out in the streets, in the local bar/pub, etc... This forum is an example of what I mean. Technology sure has hell complicated things, but complexity is not necessarily a bad thing. We just need to know what to do with it.

I remember the good old days of no cell phones... what a joy it was ... no stress... Now I get anywhere from 50 to 80 calls a day.

lol, now we got "smart" phones. We have no excuses anymore for not replying to emails, and missed calls/texts or facebook updates. We are officially on-call 24hrs.

My cell is a company phone... if I say something is wrong they tell me to send it in for inspection and to get another one.The only thing I use ... is when I go deep into some buidings boiler rooms and it's 40 feet below street level... I get no signal... so I tell them I was out of range...even though this new phone they gave seems to work everywhere...

I only really use it for emergencies... I look at the phone and if work or anything else I find trivial is calling I don't answer..

Canaris is just trying to tell us how popular he is.

Actually he is telling us he has a job, how about you. You find one for yourself?

Ah, uz is dissing me.
I barely know who you are and you ignore some of my questions to you, so don't expect me to answer to such inquires. Don't think for a second that you're special. Intellectually, you're mediocre.
Besides, we already knew that Canaris had a job.

You are too simplistic to be bothered with. If you really need to know.

If so, then why bother with me? And no, I never asked you what you think of me, so your response--if I really need to know--is misplaced.

If I had to judge you from this forum I would guess that you have no woman, you may not have a job, your ugly, and that your mom was romanced by a hairy, swarthy Greek man. We all know that is not true, at least we think it is not true. Clearly Annitas your struggling with the concept of reality... this is an internet forum and it is pathetic to attempt to gauge someones intellect based on what they write here.

GTFO of the Greek forum if all your here to do is act like a jerkoff. I can't even read this forum anymore because it is turning into a bich fest for the past 2 years. Bring something real to the table Annitas! Give us something worthwhile you waste of sperm.
