What is a Mobster | Started by: Hogan on Feb 04, '13 20:04 |
Ladies and Gents i come to you all here tonight to ask a question that has been on my mind lately dudes! See, the other day i caught up with a few guys who basically told me that i am no mobster. At first i was not offended. Then i saw how they laughed at it. How it meant nothing to them. How my life runs around in yellow tights giving people entertainment and yet its nothing to die for. So my compadres and compadritas i want to ask you a very important and yet simple question. You may answer whenever you feel the time is right for you. There is an answer but i think at the end of the day it is only a matter of opinion. The hulkster then lays down a gun and suit infront of him. What to you is the definition of a Mobster? If you have an answer to that and are willing to give me or others tips on how to achieve such a feat then please feel free to tell amigo! |

Kilgore lets out a chuckle of genuine amusement. It wasn't directed toward the oiled-up leather man in yellow tights, his feelings toward that were more along the lines of, we'll say, disdain. No, the involuntary convulsions of giddiness were brought on by how people will try to quantify any damn thing and claim it makes them superior. Easier than proving actual merits to stand on, he figured. Saying you're more of a mobster than someone else in this business is like saying you're more bipedal than someone else, provided the person you're addressing isn't a disabled war veteran or a wart hog. The simplest and, indeed, most accurate definition of "mobster" is any member of a group of violent criminals. That's it. Being a mobster is a fucking occupation, not a fashion statement. Do you steal for a living? Do you work with other people who do? Ever use physical attacks or threats thereof to further your interests? If so, you're a mobster. If you've ever run a smash and grab, picked off a mark, or knocked a few heads together for profit while working with at least one other person, congratulations. You're as much a mobster as anyone else in the Society. Dressing like a dick and running around town doesn't make you any less of a mobster. It just makes you a mobster and a dick. Kilgore scoffs one last time at the idea. In our world, a man's worth isn't measured by "how much" of a mobster he is. It's all about who you know and how you go about conducting your incredibly super-mobster dealings. The biggest success stories in Our Business are of those who saw opportunities, executed solid plans to seize them, made friends with influence, then stabbed them in the back and survived through the fallout. We can make a big deal of Family and loyalty until death, but cold fact is that it's a selfish world. Regardless of how good a friend they are to you or how reliable a soldier you are to them, no one is going to forfeit their own wealth and prosperity to you. That's why, if you're serious about your ambitions, when you see someone occupying a position that you want as your own, you must take it by force. Loyalty until death works from both sides, remember. Your friends are the ones who are always watching your back. When we're all living in shit, it's easy to help each other get a leg up. But the higher you climb, the broader a target your back presents to those watching it. Satisfied with his point, the man grins. It's a beautiful life, Our Business. Love your friends, but know where to bury their bodies when the time comes. |
