YAY or NAY the thread

My point is that we, as humans, don't have it in us to share. That's why Communism fails when you try to apply it in real life. Therefore, my favored solution is to get people to stop having so many children that they can't take care of (especially in dangerously impoverished regions) and begin mining other planets for their resources.

Yay, occasionally. But some things are incredibly quick and easy to cook, and are infinitely tastier and more nutritious than ready meals, so I rarely bother with the latter.

Nay. I'm barely even aware of what it is.

Also, the Priscilla: Queen of the Desert musical is brilliant. Saw it in London a few months ago and couldn't stop laughing.

Hate to sound nihilistic here, but I do believe Earth to be something of a lost cause.

a: MEH
b: Fallen, fallen is Babylon! It used to be awesome. Then, of course, it was murdered.
c: Yay, like everyone else.
d: Yay! More power to the people, long live the revolution! Now if only all the tyrants on Earth were overthrown, we would live in a much better place. Chop, chop; North Korea.
e: Vintage musicals, Yay. Modern musicals are mostly garbage.
