I have changed that. I really am just too lazy..

[Jaffa Cake]

Can somebody tell me why the hell this was started?A couple of reasons, briefly outlined here. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_Revolution#Causes)

[~Shard~]

I have changed that. I really am just too lazy..

Ah, okay, as long as we have that cleared up... Yeah, budgeting $20 for an entire year is quite steep, I mean, a lot of things have to be sacrificed to afford that kind of money. Sheesh, that's like giving up 4 Starbuck's coffees over the course of an entire year or 5 meals at McDonald's! :eek: That must be why the majority of us Demis are independently wealthy. :cool:

:p ;) :D

Your mac explodes in 3...2...1...

Sorry, but one of the perks of being a Demi is receiving an anti-explosion kit for your Mac. As a result, my Mac is impervious to any such attacks. Nice try though. :cool:

I have to agree with ~Shard~ on this one, the anti-explosion kit is a great perk. :D ;)

[Kingsly]

Couple of cartons of Marlboros, a few pair of Levi's and I'll be off that list.

:eek: Bloody Menshevik! :eek:

Down with capitalism!
psst... how much for five pairs of levis, ten cartons of marlboros, and a few cases of leggings?
I have to agree with ~Shard~ on this one, the anti-explosion kit is a great perk. :D ;)
Oh yes. Its saved my life countless times.

Well... there is, of course, my Spetznaz team. They have saved my life a lot too.

[~Shard~]

Yep - the thing has paid for itself countless times over... :cool:

One could even say that it is the gift that just keeps on giving. ;) :D

Come now, in this time of capitalist onslaught, we need to promote peace and harmony within our ranks...otherwise our very system is prone to collapse! :eek: ;)

[Tanglewood]

Sorry I've been vacationing with Trotsky in Mexico.


Yes maybe if we institute some reforms like glasnost and perestroika we'll be able to keep our way of life from collapsing.

Sounds like a plan, perhaps our glorious system can be saved after all. ;) :D :)

It has been reported by undercover agents that certain individuals have been engaging in capitalism :eek: in a mysterious area called the "MacRumors Marketplace". It's been operating under the radar, but now that word has leaked out that people are trying to make profits by making others pay for goods, the authorities are sure to investigate. Something will have to be done very soon or else this free-market thinking may infect the whole website and, before we know it, we'll end up with a Buyer's Guide, a Shop page, free and open discussions, and other results of western thinking that we must avoid. :eek:

Unbelievable! I have also heard rumors that there is a site out there which allows people to engage in such capitalist behavior as well - "iBay" or "uBay" or something along those lines... disgusting... :mad:

Those capitalist pigs, they will ruin us all! :eek: :mad: ;) :D

[Sun Baked]

Nope, the rest of the world will experiment with spices and cooking methods -- because people do taste like pigs after all.

And the capitalist pigs are just grown on a dirtier less sanitary farm than the rest.
