I am Z and I am a flirt-oholic  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

We've met in a crowded room and her smile (or was it her ROTFL?) temporarily blinded me. I don't know why I find her so ubercool - maybe it's cuz I met her in the middle of winter and she’s such an all-around solar experience.

Happy Dia de (los) Muertos!  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

I hesitated for one day before writing this article and telling you this story. Maybe that's cuz here in Canada we went back to regular time, "losing" one hour.

Zamolxis guide to Herta Müller I  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , , ,

I am EXTATIC!!!! N-am auzit de ea inainte sa fi castigat premiul Nobel, cum n-auzisem nici de francezul care a castigat in 2008, dar cu cat citesc mai mult, cu atat ma excit mai tare! E musai s-mpartasesc ce aflu cu cei 2-3 oameni care ma citesc, poate iau si eu un Hertzer sau un BlogIdol. Voi incepe sa scriu acest ghid prin a face mai mult spatiu sub birou.

EconomistStiglitzDebateLumea arde si eu mi-am pus sablon nou. Au aparut o gramada de probleme dar, din pacate, nu am timp sa le rezolv. Asa ca merg inainte, urmand sa corectez problemele in cateva zile, cand voi avea mai mult timp. Pan-atunci, sa ne-atintim privirea-n lume.

Don’t Fear The P(T)SD  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

Long time ago some band came up with a song that was supposed to dissipate fears and bring back the magic of the enchanted evening: don’t fear the reaper. It seems that my friends are now afraid that PSD will bring the amnesty law.

Ioan Pop, Losing My Religion  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , ,

After writing about the sexual assault complaint about Ioan Pop on September 13, I was even considering going to the October 15 court appearance. It turns out that a court appearance has already taken place before I had a chance to wake up (and I’m still on antibiotics).

Dacia, Gypsies and Romanistan  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , ,

I’ve hinted before on my personal struggle with answering such philosophical questions as “where are you from?” or “where were you born.” As I started answering with “Dacia,” more and more of those asking me, unsatisfied with this answer, started to look it up. One such acquaintance, a Brazilian dude, was kind enough to let me record our conversation. So I made a movie to share it more easily (like the Jens interview).

MH17, again  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , , , ,

Discussing the tragedy is inescapable. I had started doing this a few days ago, focusing mostly on Andrei Anghel, but didn’t have the time to say all that I wanted to say, which is why I’m continuing here.

also sprach nietzsche I care estem  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in ,

Am fost intrebat de unde vine titlul blogului si n-am raspuns, pentru ca raspunsul ar fi fost mult prea lung. Dar la un moment dat ceva, cumva trebuie sa ofer ca raspuns. Am decis sa-ncep c-un articol mai mult sau mai putin enciclopedic despre Nietzsche, Also Sprach Zarathustra si – intr-un viitor apropiat - Zamolxis.

Decat o revista, numai una / maine?  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,

Un proiect interesant al catorva mari tembeli ai (anti)culturii romanesti care s-au strans laolalta si s-au gandit sa faca un proiect oarecum dement, fatal si totodata lebadaios: o revista care s-apara intr-un singur numar si cateva exemplare. Si o propozitie fara predicat.

mestecau (chewing gum) as currency  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , ,

Ever since I have decided to focus on English language blogs, I find every now and then news about Romania that beg to be commented. I never have enough time to do so, but today, as I read about the chewing gum thieves, I shall make an exception.

Fumeile care fumeaza II – viestul verminin  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

In Vest, reclamele de tigari pentru femei sunt poveste veche, inceputa pe la sfarsitul anilor ‘60 de catre Philip Morris cu reclama pentru Virginia Slims: you’ve come a long way, baby, reclama care impletea produsul respectiv cu emanciparea femeii si feminismul acelor vremuri (vezi clipurile din surse si din ).

2 girls, 1 cop (PLM XIX)  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Were the two girls, of each at least one lives in London and was traveling back home, subject to unwarranted aggression, or were they able to transform their own arrest into a long-winded drama, at the expense of the image and reputation of the Romanian Police?

Titi Aur vs Cyclists  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , ,

In a recently published article on Euronews (en-roadfat), Alice Tidey asks the question where in Europe are roads deadliest; the answer is posted even before the question: Romania. We decipher a recent “ProTV News” news segment (spt-victime) where Titi Aur, a “defensive driving instructor”, reveals a deeply seated murderous misunderstanding in terms of the rules of the road, a misunderstanding that he shares.

Romania veche  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,


Anul trecut, Romania a sarbatorit 20 de ani de la muoartea dictaturii. Si odata cu aceasta moarte, o gramada de alte stiri ne-au umbrit conacul.

Poverty and Sadism (Radu aka Ramsay)  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , , ,

It’s been a while since we haven’t talked about poverty in Romania and solutions. A recent “debate” caused by an over-the-top article on not giving money to the poor gives us a chance to look at it again and also address our reticence with BDSM practices.
