I used to love this forum.....
Now it's all cut and pastes from one poster...
Villa rentals from others...
Spam , crap and bitching!!

Yes... the friendliness and interest has gone...
maybe it's just a phase... maybe not.

I'll step out for a while.

actually, the sparkle has always been there - its just overshadowed by the negative stuff, a bit like one rotten apple in a barrel of lovely apples !!

keep smiling

I hardly post here anymore but it is getting kind of boring to read. I think if more actual Egyptians, both men and women, participated it would be much better. Plus all the Egyptian bashing kind of gets to you after a while as well.

Hello mamasue!!

I can't remember a time when this place was without fighting or taking sides or full of "secret" identities. lol
It's definitely good for a laugh now and then, and I do occasionally find an interesting news link.

I know a lot of people wander away from ES but they ALWAYS come back. Kind of like Hotel California eh? [Big Grin] You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!

This forum does get a bit silly but its still interesting some days.

I have been around ES since 2006 so its a popular forum seen lots of ppl leave and join.

If it was not for ES and all my followers that support my views I would have to find another platform to publish my factual points and views of Egyptian life and their laypeople.

I don't know what people expect from this forum other than the daily practices and crap life has to offer..each member has a special way of dealing with life and expressing their views, we mustn't expect anything more from ESers other than what we read and experience on this forum since nobody here was born to be a rocket scientist or a saint.

تم طرح مناقصة لصيانة سور البيت الابيض
تقدم مقاول امريكي و مكسيكي و مصري للمناقصة

الامريكي اخد مقاسات السور و تقدم بسعر 900 دولار للمتر
سأله مسئول البيت الابيض: ليه 900 دولار؟

قال : 400 دولار مواد + 400 دولار عمالة و 100 دولار فائدتي
و المكسيكي اخد مقاسات السور و تقدم ب 700 دولارللمتر للمناقصة
لما سأله قال: 300 دولار مواد + 300 دولار عمالة و 100 دولار فائدتي

اما المصري بدون ما ياخد أي مقاسات راح لمسئول البيت الابيض وهمس في أذنه:
أنا سعري 2700 دولارللمتر
مسئول البيت الابيض صرخ فيه: انت مجنون ليه 2700 دولار؟!!!!

رد عليه المصري بكل برود وبهمس شديد:

طول بالك
لك 1000 دولار...... و1000 دولار لي ...... و نخلي المكسيكي يعمل الشغلانه بـ 700 دولار.

وفاز المصري بالمناقصة

i bet u would run a great cult... me i like different views and i like that not everyone sees everything the same as i do. i get new responses and view and opinions on some things.some make me think like wow i never knew that maybe what they are saying is right.. but i would never change myself for anyone...
