i love my new avatar

hawt

Star Wars>Star Trek

Jared, that avatar definitely is one of your best.

I agree with Vince, but Geordi or whatever his name is was the shiz.

He was.

Mostly because he was the guy who did reading rainbow. That **** was awesome.

I just like being contrary and divisive.

Ok, time for bed.

so the guy staggers to his feet and goes back to the girl

she smiles, looks him right in the eye and says "just try that in hyperspace!"

Its funny because he can't look back, because he's blind.

Did you get the message on myspace about the albums?

hells yes i did i'm going to download those tomorrow because i've spent all day today playing twilight princess

The Issue

Due to the recent capture of a foreign terrorist in Holy Spartania, high-level military officials want the government to authorize torture to extract information about other terrorist activities.
The Debate

1. "Torture is the only way that we can get these idiots to tell us anything," says General Buy Hanover of Holy Spartania's special forces division. "After all, violence is the only shared language we have with these scum."
[Accept]

2. "Are you kidding?" states political activist Jean-Paul Bush. "Torture never works. If anything, it should be outlawed. What do we want to become, genocidal maniacs?
[Accept]

3. "There's nothing wrong with torture, but we can't make it too obvious," says Secretary of Defense Fleur McAlpin. "How about we simply ask them nicely, and then, if they don't tell us, we kill them? That's better just from the intimidation."
[Accept]

i can't decide between #1 and #3

edit: i went with #1

I just wasted 4 hours playing Supreme Commander. And it's 2:18 am wtf.

:(

Off to bed.

Hai Jared/Seth.

hi qt

Criminals are executed and their property seized, Hahnfleck's army is full of two-metre tall super-soldiers, the country has been 'going shopping' by annexing nearby nations for their resources, and women who display their ankles are shunned by society. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Hahnfleck's national animal is the sasquatch, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the brick.

My country rules.

The Empire of Holy Spartania is a very large, devout nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 123 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 97%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.

Motorists' locations are constantly tracked by intelligence and law enforcement agencies, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, citizens must pay to enjoy Holy Spartania's pristine beaches, and the nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Holy Spartania's national animal is the Hydra, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Emperial Grecki.

I have to be up in less than 6 hours.

Farewell travelers.

The Most Serene Republic of Alphane Moon is a very large, economically powerful nation, renowned for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 94 million are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources." The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic morass -- juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.

Nursing mothers are often arrested for indecent exposure, birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire, billions of drommens are being blown on orbital weapons development, and shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Alphane Moon's national animal is the sphyxian sabrepike, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the drommen.

Alphane Moon is ranked 1st in the region and 714th in the world for Most Corrupt Governments.

The Rogue Nation of MX pop-punk
"Cigarette Smoke Contains Carbon Monoxide"

UN Category: Liberal Democratic Socialists
Civil Rights: Very Good
Economy: Fragile
Political Freedoms: Superb

Location: The North Pacific Regional Influence: Minnow


The Rogue Nation of MX pop-punk is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 5 million love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass -- juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 44%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Cheese Exports.

Crime is well under control. MX pop-punk's national animal is the hooded lab rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the cigarette.

i used to be in the top 10 best nations on that ****, but i havent played in like 2 years

That game got boring after a while when the issues repeated themselves.

I watched The Life Aquatic yesterday. Every single freakin time I watch that movie I tear up at the end.

i hate that movie.

wes anderson is OVERRATED

What the fu[size=2]c[/size]k is wrong with you?

That movie is too good. Im not into anything else hes made though.

that movie was irrelevent and unfunny

It's easily one of the best movies ive ever seen.

They shouldnt have marketed it as a comedy, since it really wasnt one.

[QUOTE=cobert;14284841]That game got boring after a while when the issues repeated themselves.[/QUOTE]

i haven't had one repeat itself yet but there are people writing new issues every day

[QUOTE=Iscariot;14285269]i haven't had one repeat itself yet but there are people writing new issues every day[/QUOTE]

I havent played it in a long time, but after a few months I kept getting the same few issues.

I don't understand what's going on here.
I won't join in, for fear of supreme embarrassment.

[QUOTE=CommieCanada;14285074]i hate that movie.

This man speaks the truth.

Bye.

irrelevant to what

The Life Aquatic is a very good movie.

The first time I made a nationstates country, I got repeat issues pretty quick after I started, that's one of the reasons I quit.

But I havent gotten any repeats yet on my new country.

[QUOTE=Eliminator;14286552]irrelevant to what[/QUOTE]

I think he means irrelevant to itself, like it was pointless and went nowhere.

why do i get along so well with girls on the internet and they all don't like me irl? :(

because you can say whatever you want or portray whatever persona you choose because there's no fear of physical rejection or judgement online

haha probably. =\

i don't think i'm that different in person though.

not that i'm the best judge.

but i srsly care very little about what most people think of me...which tends to be what most people dislike about me ironically.

I treat girls the same way I treat guys. Apparently most women don't like fart or poop jokes, and don't like being referred to as "cockbreath".

Imagine that.

you just have to find the ones that do

Exactly. It's harder than you'd think, but I know they're out there.
