In the meantime, you should get Alpha half nekkid for a shoot to appeal to the pervy femme community out there.
I'm sure his flexible morality would be perfect for such an endeavor.

1. Surveys
2. are lame.
3. Mariah Carey's song was playing in the background between Rumsfeld quotes, which made it considerably more sickening. It would have been funny, but it was mostly sad.  Thank you for weakening my confidence in the competence of my country's leaders yet again. -_-

The US gives billions and billions of dollars a year in aide to other countries, meanwhile we suffer with a junk economy. I have been looking for a job over a month now, why? because we would rather help the people in India or China by outsourcing work there.

You honestly think we're outsourcing to India and China to help them and not out of greed?

1. What do you think of Roger's behaviour, and would you do the same thing in his position?

Roger's behavior is common here out west, especially in seats of authority. A person in his position should be concerned for those outside the boat if he had the privilege of being in the boat himself, as I'm sure he'd want sanctuary from the waves if the tables were turned and the woman stood at the helm.

2. Do you think this metaphor is accurate? Why or why not?

It's accurate in illustrating the reader's view on the western dynamic... A view that I share in many ways, but have to point out that if one of the people in the comfort of the boat fell out for some reason, although part of the intial crew, they'd have been left to die as well. There's not just a general lack of concern for the people on the outside, but for those on the inside too.


3. Would you do the same then?

Heh, no. Selfishness is as dangerous to the captain as being in the water, with only one difference. The woman in the water has the chance to survive, where Roger and every fat face that didn't stand up for the woman, will ultimately have to submit to universal justice. Eventually, somebody is going to stand up and knock the captain out of his seat in order to bring some sort of sanity to the situation. *peers at America*  The heart of the revolutionary would see the evil destroy itself, leaving the boat, the rations AND the booze for the women outside of the boat.

Suggestions & Ideas / Re: RP Groups and Family Based Rp Group

« on: May 09, 2008, 07:28:08 pm »

My extremely abridged opinion on the matter is this:
I don't think we need an RP group for every family in the 4D's.
It's pointless clutter to an already roleplaying-starved environment.
The ones that are already existing are here whether they have active members or not, but like Molly said, we're at a point where we have more inactive roleplaying groups than we have players. If you want to roleplay a certain family, just do it. You shouldn't need a flag to motivate or remind you to do so.
