R.I.P. State of America

Recommended Posts

Guest Kotzenjunge

Well, I didn't expect the reaction I got from the death of the fascist regime, but it's nice.

 

I'm just wondering what people thought of the whole thing. Did I do a good job holding it together until I met my untimely death at the hands of the Praetorian guard and part of my Cabinet? Did we seem imposing as a gang on this board?

 

Didn't the pictures RULE?

 

Just leave your own thoughts, feelings, whatever.

I think it ended WAY too soon... and it also shot your post count from around 500 to levels approaching myself.

I think this thing still had some gas left in the tank; I didn't expect it to end so soon.

I had fun with it for a while there but, in all honesty, I was never going to post anything substantial in that thread ever again. Still, it was good stuff while it lasted and it allowed me to articulately express my hidden desire to be a jet-setting international playboy.

Kinetic's post reminds me, Kotzenjunge, that what you said in that PM of offering me a higher position in hindsight was truly appreciated, but I wouldn't have accepted it. The reason I wanted to be a puppet to begin with is that I wanted very little to do with the actual running of the government. Sure, I liked giving out advice every now and then, but I was in no place to plan out wars or running foreign lands.

 

Also, my proudest moment in the Ask the Dictator thread was my response to Kinetic's response to my proposal for the orgy in Italy, but, sadly, the tragic events of 6/19 erased that forever.

 

::sighs::

 

We had fun, though.

I never got to read that response, unfortunately. I was trying to create this undercurrent of hatred between you and I, actually, but then you requested that we patch it up so that kind of went out the window. My original idea with the Chelsea thing was create the notion that I go after women who are connected with powerful men. Then I'd do the thing with the mob boss's wife and would eventually attempt to steal the First Lady from Kotzenjunge. That was the idea, anyway.

No, stealing the First Lady wasn't obvious...

 

Ehh, she started going out with someone a week or so after I brought her to the board, so I'm not as defensive anymore about it. Probably explains why I stopped caring about posting stuff mentioning my love for certain Australian Pop queens too.

 

Erica's in Italy right now actually, I got an E-mail from her from an Internet Cafe in Florence. I can't stand that she gets to go places and I don't. I'm still debating going up to Washington before the Summer is out, because it'll suck if she's still going out with Kyle or whatever his name is, but it'll be great if she isn't.

 

For the record, I'd want to go up to Washington even if she didn't live in Herndon, 15-20 miles outside of the city. I love that place, and fully intend to move to Arlington one day.

Oh, also, I must commend all regulars here on creating a nice atmosphere that I didn't have to think twice about inviting people to. SodomusChrist and Intimacy Goblin aren't wrestling fans at all, neither is the First Lady, and they all said how nice and stuff everyone here was. I tell people this is one of the best boards out there, and since I have little to no basis for comparison, I stand by that!

Oh, hey, I got to see Radiohead in Florence about two years ago. Read the Kid A review on Pitchfork...I was at that concert. There was a totally authentic shooting star during "Pyramid Song," which is fitting and right on a lot of levels. It was fucking awesome.

 

No real point in mentioning this, actually. But anytime someone refers to Florence, I bring it up.

Okay, you've plummeted from "Great Guy" to "I HATE HIM" with that little story.

 

No real point in this either.

My response to your response attempted to help further along the tension between you and I--it included some sideways slagging of Chelsea, for instance--but I gave up on it after the board switch a couple of hours after I posted it. After seeing all my contributions to the thread up until that point erased, I figured I should start afresh.

I had a plan set out to pull a Jimmy Carter like run through Africa for the state and while being the worst official of the state, being the best ex-official everywhere...so much for that :)

The state ended? When? Why? Dammit... I was about to finally post my belated Abbey Party Convention speech today, which I guess was my major flaw with the State... I just couldn't keep up. I could barely keep up with any topics and the OAOAT (which I'm already starting to fall behind in) without going from "Oh, I'll just take 5 minutes to check on the board" to "WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'VE BEEN ON FOR 6 HOURS?! ARGH! I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO THINGS TODAY!"... that's just how I am. But it WAS fun while it lasted...

 

a toast to the ex-State of America! Strike up the synthesized bands for one last go at the dance mix of "Imperial March"!
