TET: Sinful and splintering beyond the vapors

[Lordieth]

Scotland. It's the second referendum debate between Salmond and Darling over whether Scotland is in or out. Salmon floundered last time over the question over what currency Scotland will have, and over the value of the North Sea oil, and now he seems to have all the answers. He's been seriously prepped for this debate, and Darling is on the backfoot in this one.

May I ask your take on all of this?

I think Alex Salmond is more interested in running his own country, rather than what's in the best interests of the Scottish people.

Looks like Alex Salmond has the upper hand in this referendum debate. Pity.

I had to google him. He's Scottish National Party's leader, right? I take it that it's the independence referendum? Or am I completely wrong

Got it in one.

Wonderful! My parents have confirmed they will not be coming back home (where I live) this coming 2015 because my father is still needed in Mexico City (where they live) for at least 6 more months. This has made my day ^-^ They will still be about 2000 km away

I take it you're not overly fond of your parents.

Meh.. they're not overly fond of me. I mean, I don't care much anymore. I've had maids (I guess that's what you call them. Old ladies that take care of you?) that are more parent-like than they ever were, so.

I see you got your old flag back. ^^

It's sad, when some parents have such a distant relationships with their kids...

I love that flag. ^^

Some websites take it too seriously, like the Dragon City Wiki. When I posted a joke image of a "Gaudi Dragon" with a picture of the famous sculpture by Antoni Gaudí in Park Güell, Barcelona, the admins over there told me to stop posting images of unreleased dragons. It's not an unreleased dragon, it's Catalan humour!

(Image)

They might not realise that Dragon City itself IS from Barcelona.

It happens when people do not know

[Kiruri]

Aha. That was called for sooner than I thought it would be.

If the Scots actually secede, I expect clan warfare to erupt within less than five years.

There's still such a thing as clans?

If his dream becomes reality, I'm afraid Scotland is going to get the leader that it deserves.

Alex Salmond should play NationStates if running his own country is his dream.

I agree, but I would rather see the best for the UK, than cut off our nose to spite our face, as Alex Salmond seems intent on doing. He's being disingenuous to the Scottish people.

Of course there is! By birthright, I own half of Co. Meath! :p

Got it in one.

C'est politics and politicians I suppose. Perhaps Alex Salmond should look into nation management and simulation games instead I think there's one called Geopolitical Simulator (3). He should check that one out.

I'd form my own opinion, but I feel I lack the needed knowledge to formulate a proper one.

Of the one I do know of is the España vs. Catalunya. Regarding Catalonia, I say independence.

If I'd have been tired I'd have read that as "Co. Meth"

And then have him join NSG

That'd be a boon to the tourism industry, no doubt. :p

I think my interest in this is fuelled by how Alex Salmond is skimming over the risks to the Scottish economy. At the end of the day, he can't lose. If the No campaign wins, Scotland will still get more devolved powers. Something he wanted as a third option from the very beginning.

Las criadas?

Yeah. I translated that as maids, but I wasn't sure that's the right term. I've also heard nanny. Heh... I at least hope I was understood.

Wild-eyed Irishmen hocked up on methamphetamines? Couldn't think of a more terrifying holiday.

It's rather foolish, throwing all their eggs into one limited resource basket.

That works so well for African nations, after all.

I mean it. I'm all for self determination. I just don't know that Catalunya knows why it wants independence anymore.

Want something just for the sake of it, you know...
