That's a lot to write mate to simply cover up a multi.

Sorry for the off-topic here mate, but did you know a banned, easy-to-anger poster named @Whistlin' Dixie used "Einstein" as a weird insult on a number of occassions ?

Big fan of NGO work though.

You can call me Doug. (Not real name tho, I don't like revealing my identity on the internet even though I am not a pirate or something).

I am Turkish, (is it still allowed here to be Turkish citizen after the on-going [Poor language removed] posts from my fellow countryman ) traveling around the world's (mostly to non-touristic countries) with my Irish and hardcore Everton supporter colleague while working with humanitarian organizations.

Premier Leauge used to be and still our common ground to talk about, discuss for hours and hours without electricity, internet or any modern technology except a bottle of local beer. I have a passion for Premier League football since mid 90's and trying to watch nearly whole fixture every season. I cannot say I am an expert but have a reasonable knowledge to discuss things about every team. (Including relegated ones since 90's)

To avoid biased opinions on me I can say that I like Cenk, I appreciate how he served for my beloved Besiktas and wish he can do the same for Toffees. However, he is not the reason why I decided to sign up to this forum. Not sure how it is gonna be as I've been reading the posts for a long while and now decided to be a part of it because time by time I want to add my own opinions on the discussions but still I am planning to be more like reading posts, try to keep updated and save some Everton information to discuss for our next trips.

Well, these long paragraphs cover all about me I guess. It does not require a test or filling up an application file to sign up but still thanks for having me here in advance and wishing the best for Everton. My eyes on you Blues!

(Oh and if you still haven't realized, I love parentheses.)

Hiya, Doug. Welcome to GOT.

thanks mate

Welcome Doug. Enjoy the forum.

Also, I've been meaning to ask this of our Turkish supporters, so I may as well ask you (other Turkish members here can also chime in). The other day my friend told me a Turkish proverb, which I thought was hilarious.

It is: The umbrella that enters the ass cannot open.

He said that it means something like "things might be bad, but they can't get worse" and this made me think of Everton, in that things are quite bad (losses to Burnley and Watford--that's the umbrella entering the ass part), but they probably can't get worse (we are not likely to get relegated--that's the cannot open part). So, I'm wondering if this is a true Turkish proverb or is my friend joking around with me. If true, does it mean what he says it means?

Hey mate, thanks for welcoming and HA HA! Yeah, that is an exactly known proverb, he is not joking around. Also, i can say according to your post, his explanation is also accurate. I do also think that it fits Everton's situation right now. In my opinion, Everton is an underperforming team but don't think will be in the relegation spot so, it can not do any worst than this.

I did not say that I am constantly living abroad, I am not an NGO worker. Catch what I say, "while working with humanitarian organizations." Not, "working for..."

So smart boy, if you are aiming to accuse a person, a person you have no idea who he is, be a little smarter. Get more details gently. Wanna more details on what I do? I'll give you a little bit more info Einstein, I am a program manager, in an IT company working with NGOs around the world. Usually, a longest term I am allowed to stay in a country is 1 month, not more than that. So, I am spending my lovely time-off in my country, having my beer and whatever racist thought you have on what we do in Turkey, I am more likely doing that.

I have no problem what my IP shows. Are we still on the same page Mr. Einstein? Good now, let me see what I think about you if we are just being Smart here.

But I know your type, you are just another inspired racist baldhead who can not clearly express his thoughts on a public forum about foreigners or races and accuse them of lying. A good profession to have, so who you are really? What do you do? A full-time unicorn dreaming spotty [Poor language removed] when you are not busy with your investigations?

Let's talk about you a little bit more while I am waiting for my next assignment. Talk about IP a little bit more maybe, how to fake it for example? Talk about cash payment systems and how data security can be managed for humanitarian organizations and why this is important for United Nations, independent organizations, church foundations? Funds, donors, fundraising, charities, Samaritans... Are you up to?

Woah

really straying out of my comfort zone here, but what happens when turkish proverbs meet internet rule #34?
