My daughter who is on a student exchange in the US called me crying yesterday "Dad, we have a problem. My landlord raised my rent by $300" I chuckled "We have a problem? Who is we?" I said "Dad, please, my scholarship is only $600, can you wire me some money?" "I cannot. Outside of the EU borders you are not my responsibility" I said and hung up My wife looked at me shocked "What the fuck? That's your daughter" she said "I don't have a daugther. She died the very moment she landed on American soil" Had she stayed in Germany, she would already be halfway her unpaid internship at Siemens But no, she wanted to "go to Harvard" I have zero sympathy for people who betray the EU, regardless if they are family or not
