Cultural Hegemony

Once again the influence of cultural behemoths hits home here in a formerly safe and isolated little hamlet. What will it take for some countries to understand that the world is not their own, that battles can be won through mutual exchange of ideas instead of brutal conflict, that weaponry is not an aid but is in fact a hindrance to freedom?



Where Canadians could once rely on a friendly game of hockey to resolve grievances, today the little ones think nothing of the fate of the crowd around them as they seek redress for imagined slights by swinging a +1 halberd. When will it end? How long before a sick society finally quaffs its healing potion?

I think you need some sort of ultimate weapon, like a ring...or a curling stone?

Having spent the week packing and sending out honey gifts I checked out honeygifts.com and there was nothing there about bees. Or hockey.

There is, however, plenty about honey.

If glaive-guisarmes are outlawed, only outlaws will have glaive-guisarmes.
