Taking out a personal ad:
 
I have come to the conclusion that America and I are not compatible. We have been exclusive for 21 (almost 22) years now. Or at least I have been exclusive.

You know how people are complaining about mexican immigrants coming into the US and "takin our jobs"?

well I want some role reversal here. I dont care about poverty. In fact, I think some third-world countries would be nice to live in. At least there, everyone is poor and accepts it.

Point I'm getting at, is I want to move to central or south america. I want to fall off the map for a few years, just get away from the wal-marts, mcdonalds, microsofts, etc.

Here is what i am looking for in a country:

Rain
Hot (really hot) summers
beautiful landscapes
Lots of farming
and access to music is of course essential.

darwin? bris vegas?

these are obviously not in central or south america though.

you know you can almost totally escape the walmarts and the mcdonalds and what not just by not going, and turning off the TV, right?

If access to music is essential, my pick is Thailand.
If not, go for southern Vietnam.

Argentina.

Stay in patagonia for the days you're sick of people, and move it up to buenos aires when you wanna be apart of that big city hustle.

Rob Instigator 02.11.2009 04:35 PM

Move to India. everything and anything goes in India.
the funkiest place on earth

there is music everywhere. you might not be able to buy the latest hipster vinyl record with your 3rd-world farmer's wages, but there is music in every culture-- well, except under the taliban...

Rob Instigator 02.11.2009 04:52 PM

and the music in North Korea sucks the dear leader's shrivelled peen

!@#$%! 02.11.2009 04:54 PM

Rob Instigator 02.11.2009 04:58 PM

I havent had cable in almost 4 years. I'll watch The Office, Heroes, Adventures of Pete and Pete, and various cartoons (mostly the selection found on adult swim) online.

Argentina was one of my top choices. The thing about India as opposed to south america though, is that im literally on the other side of the world, and I am at least familiar with the spanish language. I cant even remember the name of the India's native language.

and let it go

i only believe in one 'we' and i'm yust one of the 5 billion peoples
i have my life and others have their life, i have nothing to do what other peoples are doing
