  • Sorry but I don’t think any country at this moment would be too happy to welcome fucking genocidal rapists maniac ex-convicted murderers.
    The fact that at some point along the way they went “aww this is so cold and they’re shooting back at me, I’m off” doesn’t make those bastard war criminals something one would want as neighbours. And paid for it too lol. No thanks.

    Not everything can be sorted with a cost-expenses spreadsheet.
















  • The way I got my full A was… interesting.

    So, in Italy (where I’m from) they changed the law two months before I got my B licence, in 1991.

    Before then, a B would allow you to drive any bike, whereas after the change you had to take a written and driving test for the first A (125cc I believe?) then another for 600cc etc.

    Long story short, I couldn’t drive bikes above 50cc with my B.

    Fast forward many years, I moved to the UK, converted my B to its British version, stayed there 12 years, then moved back to Italy and made the conversion again.

    I didn’t pay any attention to it, until a couple of years later when I walked to a shop to buy a scooter.

    They needed a copy of my licence, so I picked it up, turned it around and noticed that it included the A as well.

    “Hold on a second, what can I drive with this?”

    "The guy has and look and went “EVERYTHING”, so I said to forget about the scooter and bought my first bike instead:)

    Basically someone at the licence office fucked up when they converted from British to Italian, I never took any test. Oh well.
