These are the jokes folks.

I'm enjoying them.

For now, until I turn your den into a forward communications post to support revolutionary operations against the Cincinnati Bengals.  LOLZ BAY OF PICKS

The worst part about inequality is that wealth is now concentrated into so few hands that only an equally lucky few will get a chance to drag them from their beds when the revolution comes. :(

Um, you do realize that more than 85 people in the world possess wealth, right?

Monoriu

For plebs like me, I don't really care if 85 or 8 people have half the world's wealth.  That's not really my concern.  My concern is to have the opportunity to live a reasonably comfortable life if I work for it.

You know, I appreciate the implied compliment, but not every little thing I say is meant to be an expression of or taken with grim seriousness.

In the grim future, there is only Nationalization.

Miniature wargaming is a bourgeois affectation.

At Games Workshop prices, it sure is.

I applied for a store manager position at one of their stores, just for shits and giggles.   :lol:

I am confident I possess the knowledge, skills and experience to succeed in the Warhammer universe. 
Except for Eldar fans.  Fuck those faggots.  Space Legolas-fuckers.

Space Marines are fascinating, but if I were ever hardcore into WH40K miniatures, I'd have to go with Orks.  They're like the Red Army '45, but more disciplined.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
