Yeah didn't think you could
Oh okay lol, well hows life for ya?
Yukona
Tu parle?
Yukona
Oui, je parle francais (pretend the cedilla is there)
Yukona
srsly how do i know "so much" about this region?
Fantastic, mi amigo. Living life.
Yukona
To be frank though, since I'm not in the middle of personal crises, with stress up to my eyes, I don't care.
And how is life treating you?
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia
Ah bien!
Russian Fedration, Baxten, Yukona
Life is treating me like a prized potbelly pig. I'm fattening up now but surely I'll go to slaughter eventually.
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, The Vidnoye
Mate, I've been to that slaughter house.
It ain't fun my dude ;-;
Je suppose que non...
Jaslandia, Yukona
I think you know how
no, i dont. all i know is whats posted on the wfe, and what ive read on the rmb. i dont think either of those count as arcane
How are you, Mr. President?
Nah, I think you know man
well tbf mr president - wth have you been on this? you let tserra hold an election after a cte. is he a citizen at that point? and now this other guy thinks he can walk right on and be a judge.
uh..... no. seriously. please tell me.
Oui, un peu, pourquoi?
:^)
Je demandé le troll parce qu'il phrase nationale est français.
u wont tell me because im right. i didnt say anything that requires special knowledge. you just dont like me
Just had Sushi, and watching anime. Am I Japanese? Or are there more steps?
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Didn't know you had sushi out there...
Russian Fedration, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
If you would like to challenge me, please, do send me to court. They would absolutely love a trial
The dread Demon Ruclax...Thats a great name for an evil monster lol
I mean, Tse had a bad illness before he CTE'd and likely had better things to do than...you know...troll around with us. Ignoring that, he came back before any actual motion on removing him passed and most of the people wanted to just let him...you know? stay?
By all means, the argument "It's just a game" isn't worthwhile normally, but a middle-aged man can be given slack for a bad illness...especially when he resigns soon afterwards too.
In the end, it really is just a game.
Jaslandia
Drink some suki and put on a kimono and you're sorted.
Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica
I want Sushi :( ...Oh, and what anime?
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
well i see. i must say i am quite disappointed.
y do u even bother?
Don't know TBH.
It's like Nur and talking to stay supporters, we know you'll just ignore our points and scream :P
Nah but really it's because I'm in a chill mood right now, so it's hard for you to make me mad, actually.
lol i feel so bad for you
I know a few guys. :p
Penguania And Antarctica
The future diary. Not completely appropriate, but it's good.
Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica
je comprends
Bien
Yukona
Nah, it's just I can't be arsed and you know why you have so much knowledge about the region. Don't need to explain water to a fisherman unless he's a very stupid fisherman and I don't particularly want to put that on you bud
>more obvious bait than Auld Lang Sine at a "Leave" rally
TBH it is.
Ru tried to be a demon monarch to, too bad it failed when people realized they could just leave.
Andromitus, Yukona
what? please, act like im stupid. i truly dont know what u are getting at.
if its bait, why did you respond? this is part of the reason why you are the worst, and why i feel bad for u.
You immediately jump on Kal, you immediately know a lot about the Justice System, you know about Tserra and I'm pretty sure you came from Montaris. It's pretty obvious you're either Ru or someone similar - again, why you don't actually just try and make peace with the community instead of trying to wave about your schlong from outside the window of our cosy house is beyond me, but you do you. You know how you know so much - you've been lurking and since you follow the trend of the numerous puppets that drop in here on a bi-monthly basis that just rip into the region and Kal, it isn't exactly rocket science. Probably would be better to just cut the sh*t wouldn't it?
Because I don't care and neither do the others?
Again, bad bait because it doesn't make people mad...if you want to be ignored though, sure, anything for a buddy :)
Now then, into other matters, Oel's a weeb.
Oelesa, Yukona
https://youtu.be/zlPyIRd5TNM
you are so desperate to be clever and smarmy
what? this is all bs. i just look at the oath of citizenship on the WFE and tserras telegram about his cte and the list of the judiciary. how is that knowing a lot about the justice system?
and yes, i immediately jumped on kalaron because he is the worse.
and yes i came from montaris, because that place is dead and this ones not.
so if you think im trying to trick you.... sorry? im not.
Lets just mellow out. Enjoy some sushi, enjoy this anime clip from Tokyo Ghoul - https://youtu.be/1wx-hWSTN6k
Penguania And Antarctica
Ask and you shall receive
Ew tokyo ghoul.
Such weebage ;P
Oh! By the way y'all, I'm feeling better now, the cold's pretty much gone :D
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Glad your cold is gone, but if its not Tokyo Ghoul, how about some Soul Eater? https://youtu.be/yEQtcUDNLPs < and this is how I feel when i don't study.
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
So, I guess blind people are equal to Hitler in terms of racism now, according to Oxford University.

Who really knows anymore ?
All that's missing is someone screaming how they hate the Discord because elitism and we'd have the usual case of the trollies.
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Well, apparently not making eye contact with someone and asking someone where they come from is a racist micro-aggression.
What sort of snowflakey bullsh!t is that?
Russian Fedration
Ill tell you what its over sensitive hippy Crap thats what it is!
Friedensreich
I hope this sensitive hippy crap ends soon... it's getting annoying waking up to a new list of phrases that are "racist" and "misogynistic" because some random person somewhere took offense to it.
Russian Fedration
Yea i understand be nice and compassionate and all and you do you and all that stuff...but now people are abuseing it and giving everyone else a bad name like i agree its getting old
Friedensreich
I actually just made a meme for this bit of news....

Actually, to be completely honest, its kind of painful on the "protected" end...I'm an Atheist IRL, and my friends know and accept that; but I'm still subjected to the "Im to afraid of offending you" bull and its hurtful, however unintentional. I even see nervous faces around some of my best friends when anyone, not even me, brings up religion and I'm in earshot :-/
What I don't think people realize is that instead of trying not to offend anyone, you should instead learn the specific tolerances of the people around you, yea you should watch what you say, but that doesn't mean avoid any potentially aggressive topics.
Russian Fedration
I think I missed the discussion how the Discord is elitist. Could anyone please explain lol
Penguania And Antarctica
LOL NICE!
means to approch those topic in a different manner not be a Prick about it but not afraid to stand up for your self.

Every day I thank Jonathan Taylor Thomas that I came back right when people starting to ask if this account was me so that I could dispel that notion.
Although, I will say that I'm still hurt that any of you would suspect this is me. I may type rapidly, leading to more than my fair share of typos, but I always capitalize my sentences and use the correct form of your and you're.

I know that song! Donald and Douglas sing that song all the time! Gordon doesn't like it at all, but I don't mind it. Not sure if Donald and Douglas have ever sang that song at a "Leave" rally, whatever that is.
Jaslandia, The Vidnoye, Penguania And Antarctica
Donald: We huvnae yet, but that's nae a bad idea.
Douglas: We'll hae tae see if there's a "Leave" rally comin' up nearby. It coulds be interestin'.

You know you have found an awful debate opponent about trade when they try to discredit the Harvard Business Review by citing the Cato Institute and the Huffington Post.
Jaslandia
I HATE THE DISCORD. EVERYONE THERE IS AN ELITE, NONE OF US LITTLE PEOPLE CAN GET A CHANCE WITH THEM AROUND!!!!!!
RAAARGH!
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
That is a bit odd. Cato is a libertarian-leaning think-tank, while Huffington Post is a liberal site, so those two usually aren't cited together. I'm guessing your opponent looked for justification after the fact, and Cato and Huffington were the first two sites he/she found.
Like surely guise I'm curious
Penguania And Antarctica
Well its not, but the joke if you want to call it that, is that it seems like every month or two months like clockwork, people show up, call Kal the worst piece of human detritus that has ever existed, and then proceed to lambast the users of Discord, and how we apparently have secret cabals, and schemes to take over the region, and run it like a dictatorship.
It has kinda become funny with how common it has become.

I have a bad feeling about the upcoming snap election. I feel the SNP may lose quite a few seats to the Tories. I also have a bad feeling about a second referendum (if we ever have one.)
A sinking feeling tells me Scots will end up voting No. But we still need to see how Brexit pans out. I dunno. Just a bad feeling.
Penguania And Antarctica
The Oracle of Glasgow has spoken.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Continental Commonwealths, Yukona
I hope my awful vision is wrong.
Penguania And Antarctica
OK, so the term "Elitist" has been used in the regions since before Discord was a thing.
Back then, if I recall right, it meant that the politically active people tended to know and support each other, and would thus vote for each other over the "Common Man".
When Discord came around, it took on a new meaning since Discord is best described as a subcommunity of NS.
So called "Discord Elitism" refered to Discord being more important than NS, with the politically active normally logging as much time there as on NS and moving more of their random posts or rants there rather than the RMB, as well as some of their political activity when we had recordings.
As for this Region's use of it?
Well...what meaning do you think they were using?
We have, humorously, more definitions and no one ever clarifies.
To be specific, there's been one person who attempted to state that there was a Discord Elite comprised of me and Tim and that we wanted to keep this ill-gotten power, one person stated that it was merely peope who talked and thought similarly and most people just thought of it like a voting block but less coherent.
TBF it annoys me when people even say it, since it's the biggest catchall ever.
