North Korea: The never ending comedy show

http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/28/asia/n...ier/index.html

First of all you do have to be a bit crazy to visit that shit show. So here we go again another Western dumbass gets himself arrested for reasons that make no sense in the real world. This kid supposedly left his room to steal a propaganda banner and got caught..

Here is the best part

The official says Warmbier put on "quiet shoes" he brought from the United States and just before 2 a.m. on January 1, 2016, entered the staff-only second floor of the hotel intending to steal a sign or banner with a political slogan.

LMAO.. NK officials found his "quiet shoes", apparently they take sneakers quite literally in North Korea...

That's what he gets for not packing his American invisibility cloak.

Why would you try to steal something from them and get caught? Unless they just snatched him and made up a story to make it legit.

I'm Korean and have no thought to even go close to there although I've been to the DMZ as a kid and it was still crazy enough.

Obviously the cover story is made up. I'd love to see pics of the "quiet shoes".


Similar story here bro.. I saw the Berlin Wall in 86 when I was a kid, expect it was from the Eastern side of things.

His story was that some girl back at home made a deal with him to steal a sign and take it back as a trophy. Also his family, who is dirt poor, would be given $200K. haha I'm sure he cooked that one up while laying in his cell talking to his new rat friend.

Whatever morons are in captivity over there when war eventually breaks out, are in for a world of hurt.

I know how he feels. I got an e-mail from Prince Al-Bin Sheik saying he'll deposit $500k if I send him $50k. Seems legit.

I know Americans who've visited NK. They come back with a bunch of amusing stories but many of them are, as expected, very depressing.

During their visit, they visited a museum which was about how terrible America is and how NK defeated America at war. Not that hard to go there as an American, just need to be very careful.

Interesting story. Please do tell. I was there right after the wall came down - visited Berlin, Potsdam, all that good stuff. Saw the Trabants on the side of the road. Lived in Germany for about a year, but spent most of my time while in Germany in Nordrhein Westfalen or Hanover (for a chick, of course). Then traveled all of over Europe. Your story sounds way cooler.

Hahah yes that is a rare breed indeed,
But More of the above specimen will be spawning around the globe soon enough.
Bunch of ball suckaz

The forgot to on how to be a man on their way out of the Vagina.

Here is quick cheat sheet for those who rushed out

How to be a man cliff notes.
-Respect yourself
-Respect others
-Treasure Real Woman
-Pump and dump hoes
-Stand up for what you believe
-Have some fuken balls and dont be a f4gg0t

For the easily offended virgin f4gg0t out there: F4gg0t has nothing to do with sexual orientation. Its a matter of attitude, Everyone sticks their dick where they please. Whatever you do, do it with dignity.

I lived in Poland. My aunt lived in a town on the NW border called Swino Uiscie. It was right on the sea. She worked in a hotel and East Germans would sometimes stay there. She was close with this one lady that used to come in the summer. Eventually my mom became friends with her because we use to go to the sea every summer. And then one May we went to visit her. She lived outside of Berlin but we went into the city. I was like 7 at the time but I do remember seeing the wall and the huge fence in front of it.

Very cool... thanks for sharing. That must have been a very interesting transition to make - from Poland, behind the iron curtain, to where you are now.

Edit: To be fair, I have been to NJ and some parts look like Communist Poland ca. 1980.
