The Birth of the American City-state

[grumbler]

Siege is doing better at his trolls than average this past week or so.  this is the second thread in which he has posted some absurd position held by an on-line nitwit, and then basically walked away to watch the board squabbling as members agreed with one another.

Well-done, Siege!  i always said that your "I'm just a big dummy" shtick was just a shtick.

It's nice if Siege's trolling can move on to something the board is actually vaguely interested in responding to.

God, that sounds wonderful.

Sorry, no Frenchified Normandy chateau owners allowed.

By 'Frenchified', do you mean that he's gone native in France, or that he has syphilis?

I think it would make more sense just to have one centrally-run dictatorship.

I'm fine with it as long as I am the dictator.

What? I didn't walk away from this.
I think city-states are a valid idea.
It just comes down to adding more States to the Union by dividing existing States.

And I am indeed a big dummy.
Everybody knows that.
My intelligence level is below average, as proven by my posting record and inability to hijack Timmay's and Monkeybutt's threads.

[Eddie Teach]

Monkeybutt no longer exists, but anyone can hijack Tim's threads. I'm sure you've done it before.

Does Boner ever start threads?

The Ohio one.  We hijacked it good.

[Ed Anger]

I started running out of ohio material.

I don't know. That post you made a few days ago about a jewish plot against the white man by introducing the concept of diversity was brilliant (albeit insane).

Isn't Southern California (I'm thinking Los Angeles here) famous for diverting water away from rural counties that actually need it? Disappearing rivers and lakes and all that?

It's more like southern California steals northern California's water. 

It's not really a rural/urban thing: agricultural water usage is famously subsidized in California.

Hell, it was the plot for Chinatown.

[Josquius]

I never said the British system was best.

What is the best system I wonder?

Germany maybe.
The Netherlands are a contender but  they overdo it a bit (albeit not by choice) and their trains aren't as good.

I agree, the threads generating the gif responses have been wonderful
