[The Princes of the Universe]

BOOM.

I do want my representatives to be well educated yes, but that doesn't mean that they absolutely have to have a masters degree in a hard science.
I'd rather my representatives simply be smart enough to listen to their scientific advisors.

Would it not be better to just have the advisors run things directly, then? That would free up labor resources, and politicians could be employed where they actually belong: stand-up comedy.

[Kraylandia]

People taste moose urine every day in Canada. It's called, "Molson Canadian".

[Cresenthia]

NONE of the options give me the option to simply recall the misprinted maps and reprint the map with the missing Peninsula restored on it.
WHY isn't that option even there?

Because that would be obvious and boring.

[Idzequitch]

You might say, you're having Heart PalpaTETions.

*** Warned for overuse of puns* ***

I'm sorry, that's a mod privilege. I earned it.




*this is not an actual warning and will not hold up in a court of law. Luna Amore is not an actual judge but merely plays one on an internet forum

We've got a new actionable offense, guys. I suggest Ifreann and our other humorous posters beware.

[The Orson Empire]

This..this is just amazing:

We'll Make China Great Again.

Our country is in serious trouble. We don't have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don't have them. When was the last time anybody saw us beating, let's say, Rome in a trade deal? They kill us. I beat Rome all the time. All the time.

When did we beat Persia at anything? They send their chariots over by the hundreds, and what do we do? When was the last time you saw a Chinese chariot in Babylon? It doesn't exist, folks. They beat us all the time.

When do we beat Xiangho at the border? They're laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they're killing us economically.

China has become a dumping ground for everybody else's problems.

Thank you. It's true, and these are the best and the finest. When Xiangho sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing weapons. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

What's cute is how he assumed Thalasinos- as a Messianic Jew (read: Christian Zionist, not a pure Jew) would instinctively know krav maga like how Chinese are supposed to know Kung Fu and how Japanese are supposed to know Karate or Ninjitsu.

Oh, those are horrible assumptions.
<sarcasm>
Informed people know that Japanese people automatically know judo if they're mostly samurai-class descent, ninjutsu if they're descended from a ninja clan, sumo if they're fat, and karate otherwise. (Aikido, being of recent vintage, has to be taught, it hasn't been bred into any major sub-population yet.) *sage nodding* And saying that Chinese people all know kung fu is a gross oversimplification, like saying that all Chinese people speak Chinese - every Chinese person knows the appropriate local strain of kung fu based on the geography of their breeding, and those different kinds of kung fu are as different from one another This is why kung fu movies always bring up who is whose father, uncle, et cetera - China spent hundreds of generations carefully breeding for genetic knowledge of the best form of kung fu, the way that the AKC carefully breeds for funny-shaped skulls and bad posture.

[Lunatic Goofballs]

I truly don't think my friends are despicable.

Evidence indicates otherwise.

Dyakovo's last post.

[Hardened Pyrokinetics]

Evidence indicates otherwise.

Dyakovo's last post.

Dammit, I was going to go do the same thing.

Such a... Typical and normal Dya post, too.

[United Marxist Nations]

Wait, I just Dyakovo is dead? How? How did we find out? I assume that, since a mod is posting it, it isn't just wild speculation.

[Galloism]

Wait, I just Dyakovo is dead? How? How did we find out? I assume that, since a mod is posting it, it isn't just wild speculation.

A few of us were contacted by Dyakovo's family.

[Soldati Senza Confini]

Wait, I just Dyakovo is dead? How? How did we find out? I assume that, since a mod is posting it, it isn't just wild speculation.

I'll take this to TET since this is not the thread for it.

A great shame. The forum will be different without him, that's for sure.

[Grenartia]

Dyakovo's last post.

Dammit, I was going to go do the same thing.

Such a... Typical and normal Dya post, too.

In a way, that's what makes it quite fitting. It reflects who he was, arguably more so than a long, involved farewell post would.

[Wallenburg]

The right wing allows for lift in combination with the left wing. Without wings, the plane won't fly.

In the meaning of left and right wing thread.

[Shamhnan Insir]

In response to seeing the family Christmas card photo from CongressAssemblywoman Michelle Fiore

Damn that's an ugly family.

EDIT- Thanks Arch.

[Lysset]

Context: People are getting upset over Benedict Cumberbatch's character in Zoolander 2, who is transgendered.

The quote:

Are Owen WIlson's and Ben Stiller's characters not supposed to be idiots that say stupid shit because they don't know any better?

Seems to me that folks are trying to make a mountain out of an imagined molehill.

"What is this? A mountain for ants?"

[Grenartia]

Standby, cleanup in progress.

Cleanup complete. Common Sense went buh-bye. Dya would be so happy, his remembrance thread got to cause the mods one last headache.

[Singapore Islands]

I don't think so, either. I'm just pointing out that it's sort of messed up people are supportive of this. Freedom of speech means everything from being allowed to say how dumb a religion/party/political figure might be to allowing pictures of Mohammed to allowing bigots to express their views. We shouldn't be banning the person because we find their discourse distasteful. We should be explaining why their discourse is bad and reprehensible.

Freedom of Speech does not mean Freedom of Consequence Free Speech. We are more than able to hear him talking about how he hates Muslims through a television screen.

[Wallenburg]

Kim Kardashian and Kim Jong Un aren't related either.

Well they could be their both fat and ugly and self centered

Hey he's called Kim Jong Swoon for a reason

[Giovenith]

I anticipate that the Prussia-Steinbach method of child-rearing likely involves locking a seven year old in a room with black walls, a single naked lightbulb in the ceiling, a carefully measured supply of psychedelics, and nothing but the novels of Kafka to read.

Are there other ways I'm not aware of...?

[NERVUN]

I was attempting to explain the reasoning behind why assign Romeo and Juliet...

3. It's far easier to adapt to a more modern setting, instead of feuding families, make it feuding cliques (I now have the insane idea of doing Romeo and Juliet with Raiders and Defenders... I'll get Fris to play the Prince). Furthermore, it HAS been adapted. Westside Story for example. Hell, you can say High School Musical is Romeo and Juliet with a Disney ending, again, making it more accessible to students.

Fris would have declared Romeo's killing of Tybalt non-actionable, though.

[United Marxist Nations]

He had a badass coat.

and a stroke

I was havin' me a giggle at this.

[The Princes of the Universe]

I am joining too.
Fapfapfapfapfapfapfap

And people pointed and laughed when the lobuttaryans said NSG was a circle jerk.

[The Princes of the Universe]

You'd be okay with me, say, hanging an effigy of Christ outside a church, then? Because Christianity is backward and outdated?

How incredibly stupid.
The effigy would be gone in three days due to resurrection.

[The Alexanderians]

I can see it now...
"They misogynistic and they distract people with they're trying to make a proper response!"

Natural selection is going to kill off the people who can't type with one hand only.
