    That doesn't change the fact that his goal was indeed acheived.

    Also, watch closely, Arkasas, this is how the MoA deals with people.

    *boots GG into the nearest Hate Pit*

    I'll let Marcian explain in greater detail, he was the one who inadvertently started that meme.

    Best part is that she can say anything she wants, but the fact is that she didn't post for ten minutes, so you succeeded. Good job.

    I was up late last night watching an LP. Can't go into more detail here. You know how it is. Also, one of the local cats that gets let out at night wandered into my backyard and my cats got freaked out, even though they were inside. It was gone by morning, so at least it knew how to get out after getting in.

  6. I would totally get a tatoo of M. Bison, if I weren't opposed to permanent alterations to myself that I might regret years down the road (I mean, yeah, the chance is slim with that fellow, but you never know).

    Also, pink guns are just silly. Which makes them AWESOME.

    And I don't think that everyone's a misogynist. Some people insensitive? Ignorant? Mistaken? A hat trick of yes! But, by my count, misogyny takes an active intent. A looking at a person that identifies as female and feeling an invocation of negative feelings. And most people here don't do that. Not by a long shot.

    Realms of reasonableness, dear hearts. The first step of the last step of a debate is errant summation and assumption.
    The problem is that people will say things, and then she'll say it was misogynist because of meaning she attributes to what was said. The speaker determines their meaning, not the listener.

    Okay, at this point I'm more or less obliged to claim this thread, because it has become essentially The Spartan Thread Part 2. I guess this really is a time for new beginnings.

    Rejoice, friends, for the golden age has come once more!

    *psssst!*

    Don't forget to remind her that acceptance of our authority is immaterial to its power. The only reason she doesn't follow our commands is because we don't actually want her to.

    Remember, we always have additional layers of plot going. Nemesis? He's a Ministry of Awesome plot.

    Well, somebody's aiming for Employee of the Month. It's so nice when employees show some enthusiasm and initiative. Keep up the good work. But I think you mean "et's ki Goden Gir", under your proposed "No More Ls" campaign. Not sure whether to support it or not, but I'll see where it takes us and pass judgement later. I try to always give independent projects like this a fair shot, keeps morale up.

    No! Bad Undersecretary! "Please" is for people who don't control everything! And you most certainly do NOT ask of those possessed of such great unawesome, as any boon the grant you is of poison and tainted with moronic smileys.

    But you're new, so you shall be forgiven. Next time, remember you place (that being high above your average poster). You want cookies? The Ministry of Awesome produces the greatest cookies possible under the laws of nature (when you include the secret laws that only the MoA knows about). Like Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip (REDACTED INGREDIENT) cookies. I remember a cop who once ate one, he later quit the force to become a bounty hunter and also participate in intergalactic races. Now he owns his own private island in Port Town.

    Except I'm not paranoid that the opposite sex is out to get me. The fact of the matter is, it's gender-, race-, and creed-based paranoia like that that allows our corporate overlords to remain in control over us. The more divided they make us, the easier we are to control by playing us off each other.

    KM can be in as long as she can accept that at the end of the day, the only men trying to oppress her are the ones on Wall Street, and they're trying to oppress everyone.

    Can I be a member of the uppercrust, like a duke? Y'know, someone who has no actual power, but loves to throw lavish parties, spend frivilously, and be the first killed in a rebellion?
    Yeah, your post count alone qualifies you for a prestigious position.

    Also, while KM can be entertaining at times, she often shows a painful lack of perspective in a number of topics, which lead her to make thoroughly unawesome posts.

    I keep a roster of Undersecretaries of Awesome, my team of sidekicks. Bitt_Player, Bureaucrat, and SuperSean all volunteered back in The Spartan Thread (the legendary former home thread of the MoA), while Marcian Tobay used his position as one to launch his illustrious forum career (his rank has thus improved some, to a title that we've never actually used in a thread, so he'll have to decide what it is, exactly).

    Anyway, point is, feel free to name yourself an Undersecretary of Awesome. It puts you above most posters and you can choose what Department of Awesome you head up (arguably the most fun part of the process). Also it marks you as my ally, and being on my side is its own reward.

    We had this problem a few years back when I listed top forumites on the Awesome List. I miss a couple entries and they suddenly think I hate them. Of course you're up for consideration. Feel free to demonstrate why you should be picked.

    Well, that's really the only benefit of being the pretend ruling class of the forums.

    EDIT: Well, actually, there are other benefits. You get to make up your own fun title, and claim various superhuman/supernatural powers, and claim credit for pretty much any event in human history. Not to mention never being wrong except when you're out-godmoded by another member of the forum pantheon.

    No, no, I got plenty of those. Both literal and figurative. I'm trying to think of good candidates. LiquidX comes quickly to mind, as do BafflingBeerMan, CaptainFoamerang, General Knowledge, Father Xmas, Eisreigen, Blood Spectre, and a few others. But I don't know who remained after the purge, and they really need to be willing to claim authority over other posters when it would be funny to do so.

    But the ShoNuff/Man of many chars/LoT/Marcian Tobay Coalition (which, I think, should be the official name now) have my vote. *Nods*
    Well, Marcian is one of The Ministry of Awesome's most valued associates, not to mention his independent work, which is to be admired. And Lord of Time, while not officially affiliated (though he can be if he wants), has our support due to his skills of link fu. Now, we need a fifth person, because five makes a team. Is anyone else really prominent (in a good way) around here?

    Heh. Fool. All those that are Awesome are part of the Ministry. You just listed three of those you now oppose.
