Title: I'm moving to the USA! (April fools)
Post by: CNGL-Leudimin on April 01, 2016, 05:11:44 AM
Edit (April 2nd): This thread was made for April Fools' Day. Evidently, I'm not moving to the USA, and I wouldn't do so unless it goes metric and gets a taxpayed healthcare system. As it stands right now, chances this will happen are the same as University of Zaragoza at Huesca winning the NCAA tournament (better known as March Madness): zero. Below is what I originally posted.

Title says it all. I started taking steps on December 28th, and now I have all paperwork done I can finally announce I'm crossing the pond. If things go as scheduled I'll be moving sometime in July. I wanted to go to Wisconsin simply because of I-41, but finally I'll be settling somewhere in the Twin Cities area. I'll have to face much, much colder Winters than those I have currently, sure, but at least I won't be seeing more of those boring rectangles. So look forward to see me in any road meeting soon!

You would be a fool to move to a specific place just because of the number an Interstate has.

He can't help it, because he is a roadgeek.

Welcome to the US! You moved just in time to experience an election year! :-D
Let me know if you ever come through my area though.

Congrats. I hope everything goes well for you down there. Currently, the US is one of the better countries of the world, and while I won't comment on the politics going on down there, I will say that the US has a great road system that I would like to (one day) drive on myself, and that won't change.

Watch what you say. We could always change our minds and build a Giant Wall on the Canadian border too!  :bigass:

EDIT: And I almost forgot, Canada will pay for it!

Heck, I thought more forumers would fall to this. Even though in Spain the fools' day is on December 28th, I was pretty aware of the April Fools' Day so I made up that, taking advantage of my time zone (I would post while most of the forum is asleep, so the fool would be up by the time they get awaken). I'm editing the first post.

I thought about that..., though I admit, you hooked me!

I tend to be a little gullible though.

Don't kid yourself:

Scott Walker is long gone now though. 9000 km of wall would probably create tons of jobs too  :bigass:
