B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

@RomanAria
I also rather wish judgement on age wasn't so prominent. One always hears about how the young folks don't have any respect but who's supposed to teach them respect? If they're constantly underestimated or categorized because they happen to have been born later by sheer chance, then wouldn't that cause some resentment to the whole "respect your elders" deal? Part of why the qualifier arises is because elders can't stand to think that the youngsters are doing better than they themselves.

Not exactly good for your college tuition if you die before you can use it.

Chaegon Empire

The Kalpian Expedition
News soon reached the Emperor of the Kalpian Expedition to Siragusa. While there was of course, reasonable indignation of the Kalpians' explanation, he was relieved that Siragusa was receiving help. He began to compose a letter to President Karlht Mariath.

Esteemed President Karlht Mariath,
While we may have had our differences, I thank you with true sincerity for helping my people. As you no doubt know, the Pozzouli have complete naval dominance which prevents Chaegon from sending help on our own. You have my utmost gratitude and respect for this expedition. As long as you allow us to take over garrisoning our colony once we can send supplies, then this could be the start of a beautiful future for our two nations.

While you have denounced my annexation of Tarania, I would remind you that most Taranians wish to join Chaegon. As such, it is Chaegon that fights for democracy in the current war, not Pozzouli. It was the monarch of Tarania and his supporters who wished to stay free. Pozzouli fights not for freedom and democracy but for trade interests and selfish motivation. In the wake of the Terrible War, I merely wished to ensure Tarania's well-being in case another global conflict should break out and other nations see them as easy prey. Tarania and Chaegon have always been one in all but name. As such, Chaegon has the best interests of the Taranian people at heart.

Let us not be rivals working against one another but allies and friends working together for a brighter future for the world.
-Sincerely, Emperor Giannelli

GAME: Crush A Wish

Granted but it's because you were there through a time machine that ran out of fuel, thus leaving you stranded and now you are long dead of old age and a variety of other factors.

I wish I could fix all the world's problems with a wave of my hand.

Hello humans,

Who said we're human? I'm obviously a magical dictator of a fantasy world with an insanely diverse family tree. Welcome, non-spider!

Thus far, it looks like there are only going to be four players. A few people who expressed interest in this thread haven't posted yet.

If anyone makes an application after this Saturday (3/12/2016), they may miss a voting opportunity. But I know there's primaries and politics-related TV going on in the U.S. right now, so I don't blame people if they prioritize that over the roleplay. At all. Just keep in mind that you may miss a few clan-related votes if your CS comes up after Saturday.

If I've missed anyone's application, please let me know, though I'm pretty sure I didn't.

It's a little late to say this but.... You sold me faulty goods.

<Snipped quote by Mardox>

You get a thank you? I thought we were supposed to be MORE polite down here in NC.

To be fair though, it's always in the morning and nobody is awake.

So lemme just say: It's really fucking annoying when someone holds the door open for you but you're too far away to make it within what you think is a reasonable time and it's all awkward and shit. Especially when you're a heaping mass of blubber like me, because I end up running and I'm really ducking self conscious about my body. I can just sort of feel everyone in the vicinity thinking "Hey, look at lardasse's belly jiggling". So basically, don't hold a door open for someone far away. Have fun trying to judge that, and forever thinking that everyone you hold a door open for hates you on the inside.

@Keyguyperson

I only hold the door open if I get there a couple feet before them.

@Nevix
XD, I just get a "thank you" and I never get called out for singing the praises of someone who held the door open for me. But really? You saved their faith in humanity?
