Title: any french speakers in the house? looking to translate this woman mad at nora.
Post by: cloudy on January 03, 2019, 06:59:28 AM
0:50 - what's all this about? how could anyone be mad at nora? i'd like to think that the guy defending her is saying something like, "do you have any idea who that is?"

a few people mentioned how pissed she looked in the clips from adidas's "bomba" video (which this jenkem edit is basically a rough cut of). since she's usually skating park, i'm thinking she might not be used to getting so harassed for street skating.

Very curious as well.

I don't think I have ever seen Nora upset, it's actually pretty sad.

The woman : -We will see… We will see…

Hadrien Buhannic (French guy with the cap)- Come on, stop blocking her or I swear, you gonna get hit

The woman: -On the Mecca Coran*, I dare you to touch me! X2

Hadrien: -Come on, I'm not gonna hit you, just leave her alone

*usually overused as 'I swear'


They were skating the Slanted Brickhouse/natural transition spot just in front of the Gare du Nord. Super crowded and also notorious hangout spot for crakheads

this, also for what it's worth Hadrien is the French TM for Adidas so I guess it had to be pretty serious for him to intervene, but the whole interaction is taken out of context (as you'd expect), he also mentions that the person kept blocking Nora for whatever reason, I don't even want to start thinking about the kind of lecture Nora was getting. the spot is right in front of the entrance of one of Paris' main train stations so it's always crowded as fuck and sketchy, just a day in a life where people suck.

If you’re American you’re getting the large value meal, and those come with fries so no need to order separate freedom fries.

this makes me wonder why some people are so triggered by the sight of skateboarding. does it make them feel territorial, threatened, annoyed, jealous, angered, or what? if I walk by someone doing recreational things outside I just look at them and judge them somehow and keeping moving on. I have never wanted to berate and cockblock the person as much as possible. that's a really weird reaction to have. maybe some are concerned citizens but the majority of the people that react this way have some other issue with skaters that's hard to understand.

She seemed possessed. How badass did that woman feel for being a chode to a 20 something year old girl wearing bell bottoms lol
