Re: Article Deconstruction (vol. 7) (4.00 / 8)

I'm losing the will to swim upstream again.

The fucker lost despite owning all the media and being a slimy little shit and running the country further into the ground for his own benefit. Would the FT ever get a clue? Prodi is pretty centre left. It's not like they just elected afew and DoDo.

DoDo and I would like to make it clear that, if we were not elected, it was because we were not candidates.

Why the hell not?! I'd change nationalities to vote for either one of you.

DoDo, I think we may have the beginnings of a political party...

Would you consider forming a coalition with the authoritative left, represented by NearlyNormal and myself?

Nothing personal, but authoritarianism is like, so-o-o-o petit-bourgeois.

What do we have here, rebellion? Your flight leaves for Novosibirsk in two hours, comrade. Once you get there you will be assigned to a camp in which you will work 30 hours a week, with full benefits and 6 week holidays. We will break you, you'll see.

Your Stalino-nostalgia would be picturesque and even refreshing, my friend, were it not so hopelessly mired in a sclerotic past the people is busily forgetting on its way to Western plastic goods and sausages in supermarkets.

(Oh, by the way, DoDo just took over the GPU, so you're in trouble... Just thought I'd tip you off... ;))

Re: Article Deconstruction (vol. 7) (none / 1)

Right. People will call us the snarkistas. They will associate us with Lewis Carroll and feel warm and fuzzy about us. We will win.
