Doitzel Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 [center][b]Bob Janova, Diet Vladimir[/b][/center] Concern has been growing across the globe in recent weeks about the deteriorating health of one of the world's greatest political orators. Many medical professionals have expressed their consternation that, in his old age, he is showing the early cognitive signs of Vladimir's Disease. As alliance populations age, some analysts project that thousands could be affected in the next year alone. "It's a very aggressive disease," said Dr. Shant Anamanmanamanman. "It targets the oral and linguistic part of the brain in the frontal lobe, causing a unique form of aphasia wherein the patient loses all verbal comprehension and overcompensates with excessive and nonsensical verbiage. People with Vladimir's tend to ramble on, frequently contradicting themselves, losing their perspective while remaining completely ignorant to the fact that nobody has a clue what they're talking about. Because of this, delusions of grandeur are not uncommon." The prognosis is poor, Dr. Anamanmanamanman says. The disease was first identified in 2007 and named after its first victim. Professor Vladimir, once venerated in intellectual circles, became increasingly prone to cognitive dissonance. His lectures grew longer and longer, while losing all coherence to their topic. When others began to express confusion, Prof. Vladimir stuck his nose in the air and retorted that his mind simply operated on a higher level. Eventually, he became unable to form a single sentence without eliciting laughter, and soon after went into retirement. Mr. Janova has already entered the second stage of Vladimir's, according to Fleet Doctor Admiral Electron Sponge, an expert who specialises in treating people who talk too much. The disease is on the rise in recent years, according to the Fleet Admiral Doctor, and the prescribed treatment of witty one-liners and "no, u"s is becoming less and less effective. Fleet Admiral Doctor Electron Sponge and other researchers at the New Polar Order Ministry of Science are working tirelessly to find a cure, but progress is slow and under-funded. Bob Janova was once a leading proponent of the moralist agenda in the popular media. During the height of the New Pacific Order's dominance, he frequently spoke against the unwarranted, [i]realpolitik[/i] aggression of the Goon Order of Neutral Shoving, the NPO, and others who professed to be eliminating "possible threats". Bob Janova spoke vociferously and fought valiantly in defence of Ordo Verde, one of the last such victims, who were attacked for accepting covert intelligence unsolicited in 2009. However, just two years later Bob Janova has been quoted as saying that accepting such information unsolicited is "a ([i]casus belli[/i]) grounded in definite and discrete action". "It's a shame," says Dr. Anamanmanamanman. "Bob was always someone you could rely on to do the right thing. It's tough to watch him turning into a self-caricature like Professor Vladimir."

supercoolyellow Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) This begs the question, will people care more about what Doitzel says, or more about the fact that Doitzel is back?

Schattenmann Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I weep to see a man I once put so much faith and confidence in fall into the hopeless depths of this vile disease. I can't even visit Shady Pines to say hello, the contrast is just too stark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I think VE is a bad alliance for him to be in, as he has no control over the decisions they make and finds himself trying to defend actions they decide on even if its not something he would normally support. I still like Bob Janova, although I think he should find an alliance with better principles who doesn't support alliances like those in Doomhouse just to put themselves in a strong position.

Monster Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) It'd be the same in any other alliance, except one that never does anything. As for the op, not like this is the first time he's been called out. I don't really care if he posts x or y and I say that as someone he is going after currently.

Vladimir Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) So much for doctor-patient confidentiality. Janova is just one of many who have shown themselves as insatiable hypocrites over the past month, but he is nevertheless the outstanding example, and perhaps one of the few whom I would have expected to avoid being so obvious about it all.

The MVP Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I never did have much respect for Bob. He may have been the one to speak out against aggressive actions yet he was also the one who stood by and threw his nation to support the aggressors for so long. Like how WickedJ speaks out against the horrors of Doomhouse and still fights for them by proxy taking on many wars. Talk is cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
