  You know nothing about what I know. And I do know about Slovenia’s living standard but that is NOT the same as being happy. Luxembourg (and Switzerland) also have very high living standards and quite low happiness, you’re just helping to argue against your claims. As for Croatia, firstly is having a beautiful coastline (certainly not everywhere) an accomplishment for a population, I guess it is for someone who feels proud because his fellow countryman worked hard and achieved something but you know what, there isn’t a person in this world who can’t pretend to be proud by your standards.

  Sorry, that kind of argument isn’t valid. Firstly, a few minutes over 80-85 hours is peanuts, secondly the gaps are staying more or less constant meaning others are improving by similar amounts just not catching up, thirdly, not uncommon (though more in the past I feel) to have similar gaps in one day races so it’s no big deal over 3 weeks really. What troubles me more is there’s almost never a bad day anymore, max one per year, that’s the fishy part.

  You know nothing about us. Slovenia has one of the highest living standards in Europe, we in Croatia are not as high, but we're getting there. But we do have one of the most beautiful sea coasts in the world. Ad acta!!!

  Been to both, several times, never saw more of any of that than elsewhere, definitely not anywhere near as much as Italians, Spaniards or Greeks. You’re more like the Portuguese. Strange if we believe you that you don’t score better in happiness rankings, where everyone outside brainwashed parts of the US instinctively answers knowing money doesn’t mean happiness.

  I was born in Cleveland, Ohio and lived there till my 19th birthday, then my parents moved back to Croatia, Split. Now I,ve been living here for 26 years, and since the second Trump term, I started to hate America. I mean, really hate the orange orangutan and the stupid Maga Trump supporters, they make me puke. Anything else you would like to know?

  Didn’t you once tell us about being in Ohio (Cleveland? Cinci? I forget) for many years and that is why you understood America so well?

  'Wins by minutes, not seconds' - that's almost exactly what Vingegaard said before the final week in the 2023 Tour (the Tour will be won by minutes, not seconds), when he turned his lead of a few seconds over Pogacar into an advantage of several minutes in just two days. That's how confident of his ability he was then, when he could more than match Pogacar. People talk more about Pog because he wins different types of races too.

  I live in Croatia, and I have relatives in Slovenia. I never lived in the West. I'm a Balkan "boy." You Westerners have no soul, no feeling for life, no real happiness, you're like robots... except the Italians and Spaniards, they know how to live. We in the Balkans enjoy life, it's not all about the money. Capish?

  I had a long answer with evidence of what has changed for Pogačar in the past 5 years, but decided to delete all that. A question: would any evidence answer your questions or will you just raise them, without evidence or answers, no matter what people say? I ask honestly. An answer would help all of us know how or whether to respond to you. Thank you.
