*plots a coup*

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

*plots a coup*

Post by Brendocon » Mon Jul 25, 2005 8:46 pm

Following the weekend's revelations, I have realised now is the perfect time for me to mount my successful takeover bid!

Computron is never here - and is rubbish anyway.
Poppa S is blatantly too busy doing "manly things" with the Crafty one to pose any threat to my bid.
Whilst Besters don't got game, son.

I think that, given these circumstances, I can take control with minimal effort.

Now, all I need to do is raise some arrow fodder. I mean gather the troops, yes... gather the troops.

Who's with me? I offer the following benefits:

- A state funeral
- An inexpensive space-efficient communal afterlife facility (mass graves, I think they're called)
- A full pension should you survive the takeover attempt and I think you're worth it
- A bullet in the head if I don't
- A signed certificate authenticating that I made you do it and absolving you of all blame should the thing fall through

Who's in?
Grrr. Argh.

Any benefits for my family on event of my death? Dental would be nice too.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

I wanna lead the suicide Squad on the Ivory Tower, on one condition: I get to hand-pick the team.

I think you should give me a demonstration of how you plan to commit suicide before I start considering your application, let alone making concessions.

A solo successful kamikaze mission should be proof enough.
Grrr. Argh.

I'm young, earnest, pretentious, stylishly unshaven, callous, willing to die for a noble cause, a habitual liar, can supply my own weapon (catapault) and am up for a bit of ideological brainwashing.
If not selected for the Glorious Massac- uh, Takeover of '05, I shall only become a miserable bank-clerk and a terrible poet. Sniff.

Many have tried (no, REALLY). They all underestimate how thick my skull really is.

Besides, I'll just sit back and pick off the remaining survivors after the smoke clears.
That means I'll be having your stereo, Brend.

Your plan is clearly based on false premises and thus destined to fail.
