  1. If you had a REALLY good person in charge, then I think a monarchy (with some other government offices, of course,) would be the best form of government. A true good ruler is going to do the same thing as a democracy, in making sure that the wants and needs of the people are met. A monarchy is also going to skip over all the arguing that happens in a government with multiple leaders, making it more efficient. But since a perfect ruler is impossible, and good rulers are basically nonexistent, other forms of government work better practically.
  2. Yes. That one exactly.
  3. My favorite strip is the one where Calvin has an existential crisis while staring at his reflection in a puddle.
  4. Straff the Danish Pastry was quickly devoured by chickens.
  5. I HAVE eaten a dandelion! They aren't as bad as you'd think. (And I didn't have a phone until 10th grade. It was fun being the only person without a phone at my school for a while...Do you feel the same way?) NHIE seen a kangaroo. (Supplied by my ten year old sister who is sitting next to me as I type this.)
  6. Granted, but it's bugs. I wish that entomophagy was acceptable in modern US culture.
  7. What's the opposite of chortling in the center of the room? *Chortles in the center of the room*
  8. So Butt Venture was once again left as the only Butt in the world. Meanwhile, Straff Venture had reappeared and for some reason had sworn vengeance upon his nephew Butt for bringing dishonor to the family name, because Butt had never been good at Atium economics.
  9. This has not...exactly happened to me. Once, when I was fourteen, I knew in my head that I was fourteen, but I said I was thirteen for some reason. People around me were incredulous but I kept insisting I was thirteen until I realized I was saying thirteen instead of fourteen. So whoops. NHIE run out of battery on my phone. (I think I said this before on this thread, but I don't know what else to put right now.)
  10. Here's one: Semantle It's very difficult. Unlimited guesses. You have to try to find what the word is, and depending on how close your word is to the definition of the actual word, your guess has a higher rating.
  11. Oh look, a bee just stung you. Why do I feel like something creepy is standing right behind me....
  12. Would you go and climb on that gigantic scary monster? Beware the wicked moles...
  13. Why do you need to know?
  14. The Selffalfrednahgs got on a spaceship with a hyperdrive taynix and teleported away. With the ability to control their sneezes, the universe was a little bit safer. Bookwyrm was getting confused with two people named Butt running around the thread, so he changed Butt Less's name to Ttub Less, and kept Butt Venture's name Butt Venture.
  15. Minds was very angry about this. But instead of hiring a consultant like everyone thought he would, Minds began coming up with an evil plan to get back at these now very skilled Selffalfrednahgs.
  16. This was a tropical moon. Bookwyrm taught the Selffalfrednahgs there to control their sneezes. They were soon able to sneeze on command, and then direct the energy where they wanted to destroy only the planets that they wanted to. They could also now sneeze without blowing up a planet.
  17. Bookwyrm, who had created the Selffalfrednahgs and was somewhat fond of them, freed a small group of them and took them to a secluded moon orbiting a distant gas giant.
  18. This can of worms was eaten by Found the Kitten, who hadn't appeared in a while.
  19. The relatives of the dead Selffalfrednahgs were very, very sad, and angry. Especially because the two species had just been in an alliance. The Selffalfrednahgs hired a consultant.
  20. Because nothing overly exciting had happened in a while, a horde of Selffalfrednahgs sneezed simultaneously.
  21. Welcome to the Shard! I have told many people this before, but I'll say it again: the Cosmere is definitely worth your time. Hope you have fun exploring it!
  22. Bookwyrm appeared randomly. He took a copy of Secret Project #7 and multiplied it by another copy of Secret Project #7, to make Secret Project #49. Which was his lucky number. He then left.
  23. Butt Venture did not know which side to join in the war. So he went home and began baking cookies.
  24. Suddenly, a pineapple grew in a place that the cabbages had missed.
