Aww the road just opened.
fun's officially over people, go back to your lives.
Oh wait, this is facepunch... Nobody here has a life.
All I saw was a huge advert for a chicken and bacon sandwich in mac donalds.
Feed is offline, NOW it's officially over.
Nothing of intrest is happening.
Damnit. I hate 3's stupid cellphone commercials :saddowns:
*Hey our country is having problems with money, let's break stuff and riot to make things better*
It's more than that you massive douche.
America and the UK are far too up their own ass's to protest these days. Hell even if we were being lead off to a fucking gas chamber I'm sure we'd still be waiting for the next episode of lost and a god damn fuckin' cheese burger.
The situation will only get worse for the Greek people, as the government is majorly screwing them over.

The pension age in Greece is 58. Life expectancy is 77-81 years.
EU average is about 65. Average life expectancy around 78 years.
Most taxes are far below the EU average.

As you see, birth rates have been decreasing since about 30 years ago. Everyone below 58 will have to "feed" those over 58, which might hardly work fine now, seeing as the greek are taxed pretty low. But, in the future, the supposed age pyramid will have turned upside down and there will be more people taking money from the state than giving money.

This is one of the reasons why Greece is going down the shitter, they just lived way above their budget. The Greek have stronger social financial support and lower taxes than most of the EU but a weaker economy with a GDP below EU average.
This is not a deal of the Greek fighting against an oppressive government, this is the Greek being pissed that they can't live on the high standard they were used to.
