Person 2: Yeah, it was pretty rapid.

FC Rapid Bucureşti was one of the oldest football clubs in Bucharest, renowned for its anticommunist past and for their fans.
Rapid doesn't have an important trophy shelf. The explanation is simple: the club was not appreciated by the communist regime, who preferred to fund Steaua and Dinamo, both communist teams, founded by the communists. Also, their fans were known dissidents and were one of the very few who had the guts to go publicly against the commies. Poli Timişoara fans, their besties, had a similar past.
After the fall of communism, Rapid had a similar fate. The club reached its peak in the 2005-06 season, when they reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup, being eliminated by their fiercest rivals, Steaua. They won their last major trophy in 2007.
In 2013, George Copos, their owner, decided to sell the club. In 2013-14 season, because of the financial crisis that lead to insolvency, Rapid was relegated to Liga II. They were the runners up of the 2013-14 season, playing their last season ever in Liga I, 2014-2015. Before going bankrupt in 2016, Rapid had a last successful season, winning the 2015-16 Liga II, after being relegated again for financial problems in 2015.
In 2017, two football clubs were founded: one by the Sector 1 mayor, and one by the T2 ultras. Peluza Nord ultras will follow mayor's team. The first one will play in Liga IV, the second one in Liga V.

Starts out as passing a little gas or silent trouser sneeze and quickly develops into mass poop flow from the anus area, usually wet and very unpredictable....
After eating the wet Sancho at Taco Casita, I experienced rapid shartation in the car on the way home.
