Fine.  You stand over there and be angry, and I'll stand over here with pie and cookies.  We'll see who attracts more people :D

i disagree. moeny is a huge paradigm shifter, and not inheriently violent in and of itself.

tho without money, a war is always lost.

I'm more interesting in seeing who survives, and unfortunately, I don't think it'll be the people in the corner with pies and cookies, I think it'll be the people who start the shooting first.

don't you get it? we are approaching a seminal moment in western history. those who sit on their couches (or in front of their computers) watching TV will still be sitting there when the knock at the door comes and the men with guns show up, and by then it'll be too late to stop any of it. If we take the fight to them, right now, we might be able to change things before it's so 1984 that we're all convinced that we've always been at war with Eurasia.

capisce?

And of course, money need not be gained only in non-violent ways.

Pies and cookies or watching someone getting a serious ass kicking?!?!?!


Oh Lord the dilemas you throw my way.

* shakes fist at heaven*

I curse the day you ever made me choose between cookies and violence.

* light bulb appears over teh head like the illuminated truth of the cosmos itself  I reach up and pull the light buld down and put it in my coat pocket*

*walks over to get a pie... if given one takes it to watch the serious ass kicking while eating pie... if not given one takes my rage over to the ass kickking to join in*

Now thats what i'm talking about.


*sometime later jacket bursts into flames as the light bulb got too hot in pocket*
Constitution?!?!? Isn't that a D&D stat.

Ok, first I have to say that the very first image that popped into my head was the Three Stooges and any of their movies where they turn a fancy tuxedo and ballgown party into a food fight.  Can you get any more Discordian than that?  Well, that's what popped into my head, now I will try to get through the rest of this. :(

Ok, I am not worried about being convinced that we were always at war with Eurasia.  If you recall, I posted a pic of Rummy shaking hands with Saddam.  I know more than I want to about history.  Whether I like or it or not, actually.  My hubby loves history.  When we sit on our asses in front of the TV, it is often the History Channel that we are watching, and they gt things wrong sometimes and my hubby feels the need to announce it to the room.  Plus, just because we have cookies and pies, it does not mean the gun safe is empty.  I live in Michigan, remeber?  Even my mother has a gun, for cryin' out loud.  I just don't feel the need to start anything right now.  One of my biggest fears is that they will try to takes guns away.  When they do that, we will be in big shit, because that is what dictatorships do right before things get really ugly.  And, sorry, you are not cleared to know what is in the gun safe at my house.   8)

thats alright the government knows...unless you have unliscenced guns... then "they" have the "right" to come looking for them with "force".

No guns here.  Unless you live in the countryside and need them to remove vermin.  And that does worry me.  Carrying a weapon of any sort is illegal yet criminals by definition dont obey the law. This is why I have to spend time in my self-defence classes teaching people how to use pens and other "inconspicuous items" rather than things which would help them survive alot better.

And whats the difference between Eurasia and terrorism?

East Coast Hustle

the problem is that no matter how many guns you have, if you wait until they knock on your door and tell you to turn in your guns before you start shooting, it's already way too late.
