#636: Going On The Cyber Offensive [Noahs Second Country; ed:Candlewshisper Archive]
#634: Bullet Time [Rubyna; ed:Candlewshisper Archive]

Randomly noticed these typos here, from the table of contents.

  • I could not find any mention of a change of #928, but apparently option 5 is not seen for Socilist nations - only capitalists have "private clinics" I assume.
  • Also, #1250 got a third option. Why did that go by unnoticed so far? Trott's list has 3 options, but nobody bothered to post the option text so far. :eyebrow:

    Validity apparently: has compensation law suits (i.e. similar to #302 and #1147).

    3. “Had an injury that wasn’t your fault?” interjects lawyer Harriet Wonka from the compensation claims firm SoSueThem. “We can represent you on a no-win, no-fee basis. Our... oh, sorry Leader, I thought you were the punter. Uh, injured claimant, I mean. While I’ve got you though, maybe you could look at some deregulation of my profession? The best way for you to create better safety standards is to empower lawyers in the noble crusade to promote medical accountability! Let the free market save the day!”
Edit: I guess the name is random but only saw it once so far.

What the bleep? I have a feeling this was inspired by the unicycle one.

#1344: Ups and Downs

The Issue

Trampoline parks are springing up all over @@NAME@@, with legions of playful children of all ages leaping off raised platforms and bouncing off mats. Perhaps predictably, large numbers of injuries are occurring with a multitude of sprained ankles, a not insignificant number of broken limbs, and even a bizarre incident where two amorous braces-wearing teenagers became entangled and required urgent medical intervention.

The Debate

1. “One person per trampoline, no talking while jumping, land only on your feet, do not jump between trampolines, wall trampolines are for decorative purposes only, and the company is not liable for any injuries,” recites Kendra Wynne, CEO of Twist-and-Scream Jump Park. “That’s what it says in our three minute mandatory induction video, and on the waivers that we make all customers sign, and on the big signs above the steel-spiked climbing wall. We don’t need a nanny state telling people what they can and can’t do, and if people hurt themselves then it’s due to their own carelessness. Trampolining is actually great exercise for kids. In fact, you should subsidise schools who want to incorporate our play parks into their school PE lessons. It’ll be fun and educational! Er... funducational!”

2. “Nobody is trying to stop kids having fun,” snaps sour-faced parent Quincy Eko, pinning his four-year-old son’s arms down to stop him touching a nearby balloon. “There just ought to be more stringent regulations of these businesses, and no legal weight to waiving responsibility for children under their care with a disclaimer. Fine them for each injury that occurs under their watch, and our children will be safer.”

3. “Actually, stopping kids having fun sounds like quite a good idea,” observes algebra teacher Newt Onslaugh, decorating a pile of x hundred-question mathematics test papers with a total of (sin2(x) + cos2(x))(e2ln10)x red crosses. “Maybe if the government banned trampoline parks and replaced them with mathematics activity centres then these idiot children might be able to raise their academic achievement levels a little.”

I'll take that as a high compliment. :)

And also, it was written and submitted long before the unicycle one.

I imagine Onslaugh is supposed to be pronounced like "Onslaught" but without the "t", which would eventually make it Newton's Law.

Issue Master List 1320 – 1339


A little overdue, and I got a lot of help from Jutsa for compiling the later issues! By another changelog, I should be able to finish Tal's huge list, then to move on to other bits I might have missed! ^^

Personal note: Stopped at Page 248 still. Revisit here from Issue 1000 for the next check. Fix more stuff!

#1345: To Each According to Whatever’s Left

The Issue

Multiple state warehouses that were supposed to be stacked high with sacks of freshly harvested crops were recently found to be empty, leaving many to speculate about bureaucratic mix-ups, corrupt black market reselling, or alien potato abductions. Investigations are ongoing, but in the meantime a lot of people are getting hungry.

1. “We need to immediately direct our workforce toward producing more food,” insists your Minister of Food Distribution, sitting in the corner and sharpening a sickle. “If we don’t want our citizens to starve, we must move them into agricultural communes and put every shoulder to the wheel, regardless of profession, age or ability. By sharing tools, grain and livestock we can offset this disaster as soon as possible. Sure, it’ll be hard manual work, but at least our comrades will be nourished.”

2. “We must assure our populace that everything is going to plan,” says your Minister of Propaganda, brushing dust from your desk into a jar of kvass. “Just keep the shelves stocked by using cheap fillers in our food for a while, and don’t let factory staff tell anyone. I’m not suggesting sawdust here; just add extra water, and bulk food with a little chalk or alum. Try some tea made with thrice-recycled leaves!” He presses the lukewarm cup into your hands.

3. “You know, I’ve heard from some East Lebatuckese pals that smoking helps people eat less,” whispers your brother, who smells subtly of burnt dignity. “Ergo, we wouldn’t have this problem if we legalized smoking and encouraged everyone to take up the habit. We could even add extra appetite suppressants and call them Comrade’s Choice.”

4. “The true socialist is independent,” shouts your Minister of Agriculture from outside your window, where he is hammering chicken mesh to a fencepost. “From each according to his ability, to each according to his ability. We should make everyone grow their own stinkin’ food. Good comrades don’t sponge off of the system, at others’ expense. We shouldn’t have to worry about freak logistics problems. If everyone rose or fell, ate or starved, alone and entirely on their own merits, we’d all be truly equal.”

I'd like to point out that Comrade's Choice is italicized, and also that the listed options are 0, 1, 3, and 4. 2 has yet to be discovered, as I, too, have banned smoking. :P
