Intrepid Homoludens Posted November 10, 2004 A world education fund system or other, particularly for underdeveloped countries. Not just in terms of basic math and reading skills, but specific lessons in geography, theology, and cultural studies. The idea being that it is absolutely vital that children grow up aware, curious, and respectful of differences and similarities between peoples around the world (especially today, in this age of communications, commerce, trade, and technology), a potentially effective measure against misunderstandings, racism, intolerance, and basic ugly hatred. Older students can apply for grants to fund studies abroad, and subsidized independent studies mingled with travel would be highly encouraged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lechimp Posted November 10, 2004 OMGBUSHNOTPRESIDENTLOLOLOloL But seriously, I guess superpowers for everyone since that's cooler than magic, unless your superhero name is Frog Man, then your superpower probably sucks. Or I'd get rid of Canadian music, one of the two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tanukitsune Posted November 11, 2004 I'd give myself a damn job, I can't even get a job at Mc Donalds, that's how bad things are here... Or I'd just give myself a truckload of money.... I do remember that the local (and currently closed) game store offered me a job, exactly at the same time I was about to start another one, one that was horrible, in more ways than one, and I never got made part of the permanent staff (Thanks God! We all hated it there), they didn't renew my contract when it ended, I feel like kicking myself every time I remember I refused my dream job just because I was afraid of the consequences... Now I don't care even if they sued me for leaving them before even starting to work... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

b0b Posted November 14, 2004 Seeing as I'm currently at a massive fuckoff LAN party, listening to Kittie with a frosty pint of beer, a little hash, a big box of penne arabbiata and Monday off work - I wouldn't change shit Except I'd maybe like, summon some more people to the Joint Ops : Escalation server I guess my beer could be one of those neverending beers. And it could be Samuel Adams instead of Kronenbourg 1664..!
