Nice. Since NationStates is a wild and wonderful place, we even have a dedicated thread for mentioning the movies that you recently saw. Not the only specialized thread in the Arts & Fiction subforum, by the way.


But that would mean leaving my comfort zone and any opportunity for bizarre conversation segues.

Yeah, I guess they had some decency in that regard. But then they used her bones to decorate their lairs like some sort of macabre trophy. I bet they orchestrated her plane to go down in the first place!

Yes. They're also behind Kennedy's assassination, the Chernobyl disaster, the Falkland's War, the Oklahoma City bombing, and 9/11.

Everything that has ever happened, whether it be Iraq, ISIS, Israel, big oil... global warming has been to benefit the coconut crabs... Once the world has been flooded. It will create an environment where coconut crabs will thrive and feed on the piles of dead human corpses by the different wars instigated by politicians aka. fifth columnists coconut crab allied traitors.
