THE TERRORISTS HATE OUR SHOES, AND WILL TAKE THEM FROM US, UNLESS WE FIGHT THEM ABROAD SO WE DONT HAVE TO FIGHT THEM HERE!

LMNO

But if we just give them our shoes, won't they migrate to the areas where all the hungry people are?

Cain

Yes!

And thats the problem.

Shoeless orphans are the mainstay of the Iraqi insurgency.  If we give the terrorists shoes, they may end up giving them to the orphans, who will turn out to be even deadlier.

LMNO

 :omg:


YOU CAN HAVE MY SHOES WHEN YOU PRY THEM OFF MY COLD, DEAD FEET!

:argh!:

Verbal Mike

WE MUST SUPPLY THE IRAQI INSURGENTS WITH SHOES LACED WITH ESTROGEN!

Thing is - it's not a mistake. War is our natural way of behaving. Doesn't matter what the circumstances we'll find a reason to go to war over it. This problem will nevar be solved so instead of trying to work out why, why don't you just turn on cnn and enjoy it. There's people dying out there ffs :lulz:

Yeah, I'm in last essay for History class mode, you see.

Telling the examiners that you enjoy watching people die doesn't guarantee you a decent grade :(

Unless your examiner is the only NeoCon in the faculty, in which case coming up with excuses to kill people all over the world (as I did in my last exam) will get you at least a 2:1

While this is undoubtedly true, I scored so well with my hippy utopian history essay, that I feel my examiners were not actually NeoCons.

Fuck the system!

Cain

I argued sovereignty was linked to the human rights record and upholding the social contract, instead of de jure having internal control of your country, as defined by international law.

Which basically means everywhere except the Scandanavian countries could plausibly be invaded, as part of humanitarian interventionism.

I hate you Cain. You make ALL the best fun in an academic environment.

So, uh... explain to my why I have to kill any of them?

So far, I don't see it.

The guy with the knife that really wants your shoes followed you into an alley with a dead end.  You tried to run from him so you didnt have to kill him, but now you have nowhere left to run and you are facing him.  You or him? Who will die? 



For fuck's sake, man... they're shoes.  I've got 8 more pairs at home.  If he wants them so badly, he can have them.
Where do you live?  I'd like to drop by and take your car.  You have more than one, right?

AFK

Maybe he just kicks you in the junk and drives off.

So, we've turned this into a "how materialistic are you" thread?
