an election is anymore legitimate?
Woman: I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.
Dennis: You'rw foolin' yourself! We're living in a dictatorship. A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working class...
Woman: Oh, there you go bringing class into it again.
Dennis: Well, that's what it's all about! If only people would...
King Arthur: Please, please, good people, I am in haste. Who lives in that castle?
Woman: No one lives there.
King Arthur: Then who is your lord?
Woman: We don't have a lord.
Dennis: I told you, we're an anarco-sydicalist commune. We take it in turns to be a sort of executive officer for the week...
King Arthur: Yes...
Dennis: ...but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting...
King Arthur: Yes I see...
Dennis: ...by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs...
King Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: ...but by a two thirds majority in the case of...
King Arthur: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
Woman: Order, eh? Who does he think he is?

Help! Help! I'm being repressed!I thought we already covered this...
see the violence inherent in the system?
Uh....like that isn't how the real world is? Of course people favor their friends. If a total stranger and my friends both keel over in front of me and needed a kidney transplant to live and I could rip one out and hand it over, do you really think it's going to be the stranger who catches a break? Most likely not.
And besides, if they're your friend then that implies a reason, therefor it's not arbitrary.
^^ Mmmmmm logic....^^
Ouch! Well played, sister!
You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
But I know you just don't care
CHORUS:
And I said what about "Breakfast at Tiffany's?
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it."
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got."
I see you - the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now? It's plain to see we're over,
And I hate when things are over -
When so much is left undone

For the first 5 seconds after the next hostile corporate takeover.
irate2:This is not a Democracy
This is not a Therocracy
This is not a Dictatorship
This IS a fly by night business cartelocracy
.....Currently selling us all into easy credit debt so we may be sold into bondage in a RM sweatshop making cheap Walmart bikes for Aarons amusement.
I was going to use the word "unfairly" but I figured "arbitrarily" was less offensive.
Summers Eve has a product for you.
WTF are you talking about??? He is a a Summer's Eve product. As a matter of fact, they should make his title "Summer's Eve".

For the first time ever, we are in agreeance.
I feel dirty.
Couldn't you just rip out the stranger's kidney and donate it to your friend? I mean, the stranger obviously has no need for it any more...
I like the way you think! Kudos for you.
I wouldn't recommend that. It can actually increase irritation in extremely sensitive vaginas.
Post of the day.
What would you suggest to flush him out? A fire hose and a toilet brush?
I suggest YOU flush him out.
irate2:
Using "unfairly" wouldn't have been offensive because adult type people shouldn't get offended over things said on internet forums.
But misusing words like arbitrarily does offend my sense of using words correctly.
