Now we all know that nationstates is a nifty little gimmick geared at selling some
more books. We all gathered that Sharkey would have as the national pet, "Sperm."
What I didn't expect was the following issue:
Flemwas Decides:
Ernest borgnines on the Dinner Table?
The Issue
In a bid to provide a new revenue stream for Flemwas's Beef-Based Agriculture industry, it has been suggested that ernest borgnines could be added to the menu.
The Debate
1. "The fact is, the ernest borgnine population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Billy Mistletoe. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have ernest borgnine kebabs, ernest borgnine pies, ernest borgnine-on-a-sticks--the possibilities are endless! Let's not pass up this golden opportunity to provide a feast, if you will, for our economy."
2. "I agree that something needs to be done about ernest borgnine over-population," says random passer-by Peggy Summers, "but eating them? That's kind of gross. Let's just shoot the ones we have to and shovel their bodies into ditches like normal."
3. "I am shocked and appalled!" declared SPCA President Dave Fellow. "If anyone needs to be culled, it's us humans. The ernest borgnines were here first, remember? We need to take this as a sign to get our industry--agriculture in particular--to back off. The ernest borgnine is part of what makes Flemwas a great nation!"
In case you missed that, lets see it again in big, bold letters.
Let's just shoot the ones we have to and shovel their bodies into ditches like normal.
