“Siavash” should be forced to stick to one name. Not create endless aliases to troll these boards like “Mister You Know Who”.
We get it. Some young Iranian supporter beat him upside the head long ago and he’s been wounded since. Sad.
After people overthrow mullahs, we’ll have you cleaning up restrooms in Glatt Kosher Restaurants (there are a few in Stanford) as punishment for all these years of spreading hatred and barking like a rabid dog, last week it sounded like a جغجغه.
And so we come back to the same old unanswered queries.
Were raised in an Orphanage?
Are you an Orphan?
Were you raised by dogs?
Or infectious monkeys?
What do you think about Lacanian Psychoanalysis?
Wanna try it out?
BTW, the Banana Peel says Hi!

I am the people of Iran and the people of Iran are me. I think you’ve been saying this for 40 years just to collectively punish Iranians. It’s evident in the last 4 years of your actions, which you will pay for shortly. Not me. 😀
Louie XIV used to say “L’etat c’est moi,” though no one had elected that a..hole as such.
And now a Made in Israel, Hezbollahi Cyberbasij scum a..holes, repeats a similar claim.
But you forget that unlike you, We the people of Iran are human beings; not hate mongering, perpetually barking rabid dogs, that seems to have been raised by infectious monkeys in an orphanage.
(At this junction you ought to look into mirror, to see what I mean).
We, Iranian people will put you and every other Hezbollahi scum on trial, for Crimes Against Humanity in Iran.
Note: There are no statute of limitation for Crimes Against Humanity.
However, in you specific case and file, both your verdict and your sentence are known at the present.
You are guilty, and sentenced to washing restrooms in Kosher Jewish restaurants.
So far you sentence if for 15 years, equal to your years of hate mongering and barking on this site.
Your dedicated, personally designated Banana Peel also says Hi!
I stick to my name Siavash and never change it. I am proud of my name and I am proud of my nationality which is Iranian. Unlike Unshaved, smelly Islamic parasites who are hiding behind fake names, there is no reason for me to hide behind any fake name. Islamic criminals are hiding their names because soon they have to stand trial for crimes they committed against our people for last 4 decades. Have you taken shower today ?
Apparently according to some sources (WFUV Radio) this is the number one song of 2020.
You be the judge.
This is actually a better version of Ave Maria in German.
Another review of Auerbach’s “Mimesis” from NY Review of Books:
The Book of Books
Erich Auerbach and the making of “Mimesis.”
No one knows how he came to Istanbul: whether he caught the Orient Express in Munich or drove from Marburg to Genoa and boarded a ship for Athens.
We know that he arrived in September, 1936, and was joined, two months later, by his wife and thirteen-year-old son.
We know that he hadn’t wanted to go, and didn’t think that he would stay long.
A year earlier, he had told a colleague that Istanbul University was “quite good for a guest performance, but certainly not for long-term work.”
As it turned out, he stayed nearly eleven years, three of which were devoted to writing a book that helped define the discipline of comparative literature.

This is a reckless White Supremacist brainwashed reading of Iranian life.
Western culture is non existent trash. Get real, White Supremacist cave ape moron with your hundreds of yesrs of human slavery and massive Epstein pedophilia networks. 😂 The zoo monkeys have typewriters.
A Note to Hezbollahi Persian Chauvinist scum, who are at the moment ethnically cleansing Iran of our Kurdish Turkman, Arab, Baluch,… sisters and brothers, and all other non-Persian national minorities we have in Iran.
But f..k them, we’ll kick their ars and shall prevail.
Another testimony to an advanced stage of Schizophrenia in Hezbollahi scum is how they bark like rabid dogs about “the West,” and “Amerika,” but they can’t wait to open their banks accounts in the US and move their children to American schools.
BTW, who raised you?
Were you educated in an orphanage? Are you an orphan?
Or were you raised by rabid dogs and infectious monkeys?
Hints of QAnon propaganda in your tone.
Second and last BTW,
BTW on the topic of Western civilization and its worth, in my humble yet expert opinion you may simply GF yourself.
And after you’re done doing that, for a good and generous portion, the you could look at this below:
(in you weren’t so utterly obtuse and churlish you could have written a synopsis on it, but then again you’re juss toooooo f..king stupid.
Mimesis:
The Representation of Reality in Western Literature
(German:
Mimesis:
Dargestellte Wirklichkeit in der abendländischen Literatur)
is a book of literary criticism by Erich Auerbach, and his most well known work. Written while Auerbach was teaching in Istanbul, Turkey, where he fled after being ousted from his professorship in Romance Philology at the University of Marburg by the Nazis in 1935, it was first published in 1946 by A. Francke Verlag.
Mimesis famously opens with a comparison between the way the world is represented in Homer’s Odyssey and the way it appears in the Bible. From these two seminal Western texts, Auerbach builds the foundation for a unified theory of representation that spans the entire history of Western literature, including even the Modernist novelists writing at the time Auerbach began his study.
Talking about good new songs of this year, this is probably the newest and one of the last songs of this year, by Taylor Swift.
She’s definitely maturing and getting better.
you be the judge.
Here’s another great new song from this year, incredible cool grove music combined with uplifting, thoughtful lyrics; reminiscent of the 60’s music, in its best.
Sunshine don’t come without rain
And that’s okay, that’s okay
Love ain’t magic without pain
So we keep trying, we keep trying anyway
Please don’t forget what you’re living for
Please don’t forget what you’re fighting for
Time means nothing without change
So don’t waste it, don’t waste it
Hate is fear that is not tamed
So we keep trying, we keep trying every day
Please don’t (don’t) forget (don’t you forget)
What you’re (what you’re living for) living for
Please don’t (please don’t) forget (don’t you forget)
What you’re (what you’re fighting for) fighting for
Don’t forget what you’re living for
Don’t forget what you’re living for
And don’t forget what you’re fighting for
Don’t forget what you’re fighting for (don’t forget)
Don’t forget what you’re living for
Don’t forget what you’re living for
Don’t forget what you’re fighting for
Don’t forget what you’re fighting for
How about the power of music to end an incredibly bad year.
This is the best song I’ve heard this year.
In my humble opinion its lyrics capsulate the entire year.
Enjoy.
