I can tell you nobody in the West is going to believe that a 23 year old can lead a credible anticorruption campaign . <| sep |> Yeah I ' ve personally never given a shit about XP or badges . The sales give me a discount on games , that ' s all i need . Sure the fluff stuff was fun the one summer sale with the teams especially but in the end it ' s all about the games . <| sep |> Haha back in 1989 I was living in Zagreb , Croatia still Yugoslavia then . The US Marines guarding the Consulate at the time were forbidden from fraternizing with locals . They couldn ' t even go shopping locally alone , always 2 Marines together , to make sure none of them was having any conversations with the shop girls other than yes please and thank you . The Consulate encouraged visiting Americans to register their passports there and provide a local address and contact information . The Marines figured out that this was a golden list of the only people in Zagreb they could hang out with . They had their own house in Zagreb and used to host parties there and invite local Americans . They also used to make regular supply runs to Aviano , Italy to shop at the commissary at the air base there . A huge white Chevy Suburban with US license plates , regularly coming back to Zagreb loaded with Doritos and beer and other snacks . Those Marines used to run a little side hustle too , bringing back American goodies for US expats in Zagreb .
