Suggestion: change 'nice' in the last line to 'great'. It's smoother

I think "we commend Haiku" sounds better. :)

I think "thus commends Haiku" makes more grammatical sense and sounds better.

Fabulously bisexual.
Note: I do not use NS stats for my RP, instead I use numbers I made up one evening when writing my factbooks.

Perhaps you should learn what you are talking about before you post. You have made several posts over the last few weeks, and all of them have been wrong. If you don't know what you are talking about, refrain from posting.

Haha I love this. Your proposal has my support.
Vanq commands a quiet respect that carries its own authority. He is the Hitler of NS.


"I took away Vanq's YB for deliberatly ignoring me"
"I know Vanq is a very good writer and this is how he treats someone of lesser skill?"
"I would love to have a writer of your caliber along for the ride"
"neo and vanq do a dbz fusion to form 1 big shitposter then get erased from NS by kyrusia"
"Which is the level of memeing I expect from Vanq"
"brigadier general comes on, pulls a vanq and calls us all autistic"

I love this a lot.
But, why not submit
with Warzone Codger?

It's no problem though-
for we will support any
that Commends Haiku.

Representative
Trevanyika walks into
The SC chamber.

"I know not how this
Region's literature earns
It commendation.

I love poetry,
Haikus can be beautiful,
And art is precious.

But the Assembly
Has far greater concerns than
Commending poets.

Wallenburg will vote
AGAINST this resolution
Good day, gentlemen."

Trevanyika walks
Out of the chamber, alone.
"Foolishness, indeed."
While she had no regrets about throwing the lever to douse her husband's mistress in molten gold, Blanche did feel a pang of conscience for the innocent bystanders whose proximity had caused them to suffer gilt by association.

A refreshing change
From all the junk recently
I will support this
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23
