Sardonic Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) [quote name='Captain Flinders' date='08 July 2010 - 12:06 PM' timestamp='1278608756' post='2363545'] I still don't get why people get so upset about GOONS wanting them to write short stories or draw funny pictures. You must not care about your alliance very much if you can't write a comedic short story to save its life. [/quote] Well, that's the problem with /b/, they can't generate any content. All they know how to do is take content from other groups, memefy it, and repeat the memes endlessly. Either way, have fun in Athens, /b/.

[/quote] To be quite honest, you're not that bad for a /b/ member. You must see how you're just providing tears for our enjoyment by producing threads like this, however. You're putting a lot more effort into crying about how GOONS ruined your day by making you decide between eating a small slice of humble pie for our enjoyment or merging your alliance into another one. Every individual that has successfully completed our terms comes out of it with an entry on our 'do not attack' list, and most come out of there with a smile on their faces. All it takes is 5-10 minutes of creativity and a sense of humor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
