What if we handled world politics like the school yard?

Pig pile on North Dakota!!! :D

I know this is in Random Thoughts, but what brought that on?

As you said random thoughts. Pulled the state out of the air.
If is offensive to anyone I certainly can have the whole thread removed.

Don't we already?

Say little terrorist organization gets a brand new ball from the basket... The big group of friends who always collect them get angry and try to take the ball away. But then they find that the terrorists passed the ball away.

I don't agree with you. People like George W. Bush (and others, but he's a nice example, right? So please don't reply on this one, I know America's divided in a part that likes him and a part that doesn't...) treat World Politics like the school yard, we should be thinking instead what the effects of our decisions will be and try to minimize the negative ones.

No, it's not offensive. Was just wondering why you chose N.D. (I had figured one of their congress-critters did something dumb, but hadn't seen anything on the news).

It was my 1001th post. Thought I'd start something we could all joke about.

*** Politics*** <--- What was I thinking!!!??? :rolleyes:

Politics is the world's biggest game, so the school yard seems appropriate :)

Should have just stuck with the changed avatar. I made mine today to celebrate 200 posts. I think you can tell that I built it at the pixel level in Paint. :)

Hey buddy, watch it with those North Dakota jokes, OK? I was there once, man, and let me tell ya, I bought a snowcone. It was great.
2 bites into it, and I suddenly remebered that I never really liked snowcones.
But that doesn't change how I feel about North Dakota.
So you better watch it, buddy!

:D

I guess you haven't been watching Gruff then, eh?
He changes his avatar every 100 posts or so.
The one 2 avatars ago (the one of the racoon spitting it's toungue out) was my favorite so far.
