3-word game

Ok, so we make a story but we can only use 3 words each and you cannot post directly after your post; only when somebody else has made a post after you post, then you can post again. Just make the story last a long time and be creative!

Krellin...Did You Appear On Piers Morgan Recently? xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=AtyKofFih8Y#!
I kid (though for as much of an ass as I am you DO sound a bit like that sometimes, Krellin) but WOW...that was hysterical. xD Pro-gun people...see, it's people like this that make gun control people eye you and your position as if you've said something so ludicrous as...as, well, "1776 will commence again!" xD When of two people, Piers Morgan is the less self-righteous one in the room...!

Alex Jones, another intellectual American, the country is literally full of them ...... that is funny. He makes Piers Morgan sound rational and that is not easy because he is a dickwad !!

Alex Jones, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck--

We could have The Beatles of Bullshit right now, the Fallacious Four!

This is a moment to cherish, truly...lol...

Which isn't to say Piers is great--i think he's middle of the road myself, I definitely get the criticism he receives for being pompous, but then, I'm arrogant myself, so maybe I'm more tolerant of that--but wow...I mean just wow...

Alex Jones couldn't have made the gun lobby look worse if he tried.

What I found confusing is that Alex Jones repeatedly uses evidence from the same government he condemns for fudging data. What an odd man.

Wow... when he did a British accent at the end (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-tsHlDviuA, 12:25 onwards) he sounded genuinely similar to Sir Patric Moore!

Out of interest, is this what US political debate is like?

"Out of interest, is this what US political debate is like?"

No. Alex Jones is a nationally syndicated radio host who pushes the Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory. He not only thinks 9/11 was a government conspiracy, that literally every other world event is also one. He's a joke who nobody takes seriously.

Our political culture has degenerated a great deal, but thankfully not to the point that Alex Jones is anything more than an entertaining joke. He's basically a more loud-mouthed and less New Age-y George Norey.

I can't believe I watched both parts of that 'debate'. What a waste. I don't have the stomach to watch this, but look Alex Jone's YouTube response if you happened to enjoy his insanity:

Lots of "Left Games"? Offer buy-in discount on left games?

I've noticed lots of games with where players have left. Would it make sense to offer discounted bets to join "left games" to make it more enticing and faster to fill "left games", such as a 25-50% discount? I'm new here, so maybe left games are not a concern to experienced players?

In Defence of North Korea

With the recent successful missile test of the state of North Korea, many casual viewers of Korean affairs may wonder what motivates the relentless aggressive foreign policy of an impoverished and struggling third-world country. Why does the North continue to spend vast amounts on a nuclear and ICBM programme while large swathes of its populace are in starvation?
