STM, you traitor! Get back in the fucking naughty corner and sing God Save the Queen.

I heard this great joke the other day.

What did the man from The Netherlands say to the cow?

Nevermind. I forgot the rest because it was about the fucking Netherlands.

It was Havoc's however. He's hoping that because no one gives a shit about Denmark that we won't remember they also still have a monarchy. Edit: My bad. Netherlands. That's even worse.

Lorne Lanning wants his faggotry back.

Denmark? Really?

I'm no fan of a monarchy either. It serves no purpose at all. In fact, the only thing our king is supposed to do (as far as law making goes) is sign laws that have been thought up, discussed and approved by our government. Then should he for whatever reason refuse to sign the law, he will be fired and the new king has to sign the law.

Eat some cheese because that's probably what they do where you're from!

Wings of Fire · #37 07-23-2013, 01:03 PM

Get back on topic otherwise I'll be pissed I bothered to make this its own thread.

The next person to listen to anything Havoc says gets a warning. Even if he's on fire.

OANST · #38 07-23-2013, 01:14 PM

My heart only has room for one Monarch, and that's our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Varrok · #39 07-23-2013, 01:33 PM

He died. Pick another one

I love how these things turn to complete shit as soon as they get their own thread.

Crashpunk · #43 07-23-2013, 01:45 PM

It would of turned into complete shit regardless. This is the Oddworld Forums after all.

Post! Post in this topic! Do it now! And don't forget to breathe and tell me how stupid I am!

It was complete shit long before it got its own thread.

OANST · #46 07-23-2013, 02:29 PM

Sure. But they get noticeably worse every single time.

Strike Witch · #47 07-23-2013, 11:10 PM

Dictatorships can be great if you get a really driven, intelligent, nice due who improves society!

But then when he dies you get the chance that his replacement will be some lazy sadistic egomaniac twat.

Viva democracy.

OANST · #48 07-24-2013, 06:37 AM

Lenin begat Stalin. So on and so on.

STM · #49 07-24-2013, 08:13 AM

Lenin was a cunt though...

I think political parties should be made illegal, just elect individuals to positions so they have no allegiance to anything but their own personal ideologies. That way you get more choice and you don't have to align yourself with a party of cunts because the one you like is in it.

MeechMunchie · #50 07-24-2013, 08:15 AM

Won't you just end up with a government completely at odds with itself that never achieves anything?

Nepsotic · #51 07-24-2013, 08:32 AM

Or a prick who fucks everything up worse than parties.

STM · #52 07-24-2013, 08:43 AM

No because you elect individuals to every position. Your local MP, your PM/El Presidente, your health minister, your...you get the picture.

Riiiiiiight. Have you heard of something called 'the current government'?

WolfensteinOdess · #53 07-24-2013, 08:58 AM

No liberty

STM · #54 07-24-2013, 09:04 AM

Well shit, you sure opened my eyes.

But he really wasn't! He put an end to the pogroms, stated that Jews had as much a place in their society as anyone else (not a popular belief at the time) and worked tirelessly to better the lives of his people. He had a difficult time keeping the hard liners who followed him to power in check, but the man really did try to create a utopia. His failure doesn't diminish his intent.

STM · #56 07-24-2013, 09:51 AM

He never wanted to create true blue (or red...) Communism, he was a power hungry arse hole who started a civil war that killed millions. Forced peasants to hand over their bread in the middle of a famine so that his Red Guard could eat. Sent a lot of the intelligentsia to Siberia and began the organised destruction of the Kulaks, the same line that Stalin would later follow.

Trust me, I studied Russian history for two years, the legendary Lenin is not the real Lenin.

Bullet Magnet · #57 07-24-2013, 10:17 AM

I think the existence of monarchies is a huge fucking problem in the twenty-first century. We're supposed to be living in the future!

We'd have been better off if America hadn't pushed for independence and the revolution simply... continued.

Nepsotic · #58 07-24-2013, 10:34 AM

Yeah, it's America's fault we have a queen!

Slog Bait · #59 07-24-2013, 10:55 AM

Ur welcome

That's completely correct. If it wasn't for Wallis Simpson, there's half or more chance we'd currently have a king.
