Is that a reference to Ban Ki-moon somehow?
I'm so tired. Can't wait for the week to end!!!

Chiquita? Bananas? Communism? Nuclear War?

Tough crowd.

(ditto on the week thing, though. at this point I'm just waiting for the winter break to peak its head)

Oh are you in Portugal? I thought that was an island state near the Philippines till I met someone from there on this site.. Boy was he upset about that.. Us 'Muricans are very bad at Geography.. even when it comes to our own country! Met quite a few Americans that didn't know Arkansas has mountains.. Most think all the land around here is flat with no hills or trees.. Not all of us central states look like Kansas..

The philipines... what tha... *facepalm* Portugal was born in 1143, we were the pioneers of the Discoveries, we were the only European nation that didnt burn the Templars (The Templars still existed in Portugal until the 19th century), we were the first global empire of the world, from Brazil to Japan, and longest lasted colonial empire from 1415 to 1999, we were invaded 3 times by the French army of Napoleon and we won all 3 invasions, we are the largest cork producer in the work (53%, second is Russia with 12% i think), we have the oldest mutual cooperation alliance still in active with England since 1373, we abolished slavery in 1751 (and didnt made a civil war about that), we were the first nation to abolish the death penalty, we had the longest lasted dictatorship in the world from 1926 to 1974 and made a Colonial War against the independent movement in our colonies (not proud of that), we made a bloodless coup d'etat to finally bring democracy in Portugal in 1974-1975, in 2001 we decriminalized all kinds of small amounts of drugs that a citizen had in his possession (if guilty you would do a mandatory reabilitation and in worst case scenario a small fine, no jail time) and it worked, putting Portugal as the nation to almost win its war on drugs... and the next UN secretary-general will be Antonio Guterres... a former prime-minister of Portugal and former president of the Socialist Party.

I realize you're in an angry rant, but reading this makes me think of those Navy SEAL copypastas being used by someone who is indignant about people saying they have it easy.

EEP! *hides* I sowwy! We lack knowledge of other countries unless it directly relates to our recent history. America is strangely isolationist despite being made up of cultures from around the world..

What's this you've said to me, my good friend? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in conflict resolution, and Ive been involved in numerous friendly discussions, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in polite discussions and I'm the top mediator in the entire neighborhood. You are worth more to me than just another target. I hope we will come to have a friendship never before seen on this Earth. Don't you think you might be hurting someone's feelings saying that over the internet? Think about it, my friend. As we speak I am contacting my good friends across the USA and your P.O. box is being traced right now so you better prepare for the greeting cards, friend. The greeting cards that help you with your hate. You should look forward to it, friend. I can be anywhere, anytime for you, and I can calm you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my chess set. Not only am I extensively trained in conflict resolution, but I have access to the entire group of my friends and I will use them to their full extent to start our new friendship. If only you could have known what kindness and love your little comment was about to bring you, maybe you would have reached out sooner. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now we get to start a new friendship, you unique person. I will give you gifts and you might have a hard time keeping up. You're finally living, friend.

this is one of my favourite version though...

I learned about Portugal through Uncharted Waters, a game about the age of discovery from the early 90s. I think they have an online version now... would play again if there's time.

Luckily for all of you, you didn't live thru the years when General Franks or Powell of DEN (can't remember which, maybe A Moon Shadow can jolt my memory) was still around. He used to post these epic rants about defenders mostly but also about mods and other gameplayers until he got DOS in 2006.

Few have come close to his rant level ever since.

In the CoD Infinite Warfare live action trailer, they have Trump win and Canada builds a wall... O.O
But one thing some Canadians are liking about Trump, is that it may make it vastly easier to sell oil to him! >:D

Socialist = Communist, the definitions are too similar.

False, Socialism doesn't force you to lose all your private property to a single Commune. Also, Germany-- the country I live in, can be compared to a Socialist state, due to its many welfare programs and a net made to preserve each single citizen from poverty, and where-- of course, all citizens are equal, be they rich or poor or of different skin color or gender.

You are clearly thinking of Marxist Socialism, the actual 'Communist Socialism', which is a really bad idea made by a poor person.

Iwaku is a bit too big to coordinate. It's not impossible but gonna take a lot of leadership to do well. Most regions that topped the rankings in past years were either 100-200 regions or puppet regions.

I think Yggdrasil is also larger than what we were last year at this pt in time ...and since it's our first time killing zombies, I'm not expecting a fantastic outcome
