SirWilliam Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 That is some truly awful, awful singing...I love it. [OOC] Even though the fiancee wouldn't let me listen to any more than 30 seconds of either video. [/OOC] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippy Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 While I generally find the Tabloid Tribune to be relatively tasteless, I must admit I was mildly entertained by this edition. This part in particular: [quote] Regardless, the NPO has finished funding GOD and now with GOD now ending their participation in the Kollateralized Amalgamated Reinvestment Mutual Assistance Program, Pacificans are focusing their efforts to help the Viridian Entente. Maturity of the K.A.R.M.A. for GOD is expected in one to four years with an estimated yield of 1300%. ----- Written by Sir Paul Signature by Red The Tabloid Tribune - One Step Ahead of the Truth Proudly Part of PNN[/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Wallace Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 [quote name='Sir Paul' date='16 March 2010 - 07:59 AM' timestamp='1268744675' post='2227247']as even peasants can see that the "Pacifican" Jackboots Archon wears are made of cheap felt instead of fine baby-leather (probably imported from former initiative backwater like VE).[/quote] VE only uses the finest cow during the production of our boots my good man. And I for one am anxiously awaiting to see if the Pacifican diplomat corps has been hard at work during terms or if we're going to see the Pacifican version of the Flying Wallendas going heal to toe while sweating it's way over the abyss.

Alterego Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Good read as always. Although you are wrong about one thing. NPO would have been the 2nd Hegemony. The 1st would have been the original GATO/Legion types. That would make MK & Co the fine baby-leather jackboot wearing 3rd Empire/hegemony.

[/quote] The GPA managed. Don't tell me Pacifica's military is less capable than theirs. In any case, I meant that they shouldn't have been required to decommission, except maybe nukes and navy.

Il Impero Romano Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 [quote] This would free up G15 resources to prosecute their current active war as well as removing what has become a disparate burden on a few alliances.[/quote] It's not a burden, but a pleasure Seriously though, we enjoy blowing things up. I only wish people would wait and grow a little bit before they go rogue on you all because this 100ns stuff just isn't half as much fun.

legalluc Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 One step ahead of the truth; and one step behind the lies, diligently cleaning up the mud that the prevaricators throw against the walls of truth. Brilliant analysis; hidden depths of meaning; and, unfortunately, really lousy singing. But the verses on side B, especially the refrain... Great writing, purposeful writing, timely writing. The prototype of the CN journalist. /Sir Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is a serious offer or not but if it is the G15 should definitely accept it. Overall good read. Not your best. [/quote] Sir, I am the Imperial Clerk of the New Pacific Order. My reports are factual and if the G15 agrees to allow the Order to rearm themselves, then we would take responsibility for the defense of the Order from non-hegemonic actions against our alliance. While offers can be made in public, agreements don't happen on the OWF. I would encourage the G15 to take the matter to vote at their next meeting and the Pacifican Delegation is ready to answer any and all questions about our bold proposal. As for not being my best, after 157 issues, it's tough to keep topping yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
