Good luck!


it's a GAME you all titbrains, i think i mentioned that somewhere above, sort of inspired by lurker's book thread-- why would i waste my time asking for advice or help here? -- it's a fucking game, but no, people keep missing the point, talking as if i was *really* asking for help writing something, so why would i ask for help or advice from people who always miss the point of pretty much anything? no. it would require suicidal tendencies which i lack

see, this guy gets it:

A: Voyeuristic pleasure in watching another cry.

Q: how is this exchange organized?--
A: The recipient of the payment (the voyeur) meets privately with the one paying them (the crier), where they can view their weeping for an agreed upon duration of time. Public tears are the equivalent of tossing money into the air.

Q: what sorts of structures does it generate in society?--
A: Structures that are German in nature. Cry booths. Sad movies that one can pay for simply by attending them. The funeral industry usurping the wedding industry. Spanish women become powerful entrepreneurs. Onions become geese that lay golden eggs, replace that Chinese cat statue that has one paw up, and constantly exponentially increase in value. All clowns are shot dead, except the sad ones or the scary ones that upset children. Bright Eyes becomes an economic power. Scrooge McDuck replaces his money bin with massive concentration camps. Women are viewed as having value. A 'Cherokee trail of tears' refers to a person's spending binge, assuming that they are of Native American origin. Littering in front of the very same redskins is profitable.

Q: what sorts of individuals does this society generate?
A: Germans eager to offer their services. Total queermos. And powerful Spanish women (which just boggles the mind. Like, a Sipowitz level of boggling.)

amerikangod wins the game with "Structures that are German in nature. Cry booths". ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaa. yes!
