| King for a day | Started by: Brick_Pollitt on May 07, '09 10:38 |
|
Brick strolled through the streets as usual that morning. He looked around and felt something different. Was the morning air fresher that day? Maybe. It had been raining for several days. But what was different was the fact that he appeared to be the oldest crewleader of the community about at that particular time. And that made him feel...old. Yes, really old. But it also made him feel like he should impart some wisdom on the younger members of the crewleader fraternity. And after determining that he had no wisdom to impart on this particular day, he decided he would talk about what he would do if he was, in fact, the most powerful member of this community. If he were king for a day, what would Brick_Pollitt do? Well, self, the first thing I would do is stop talking about myself in the third person. How annoying is that? Right? I'm king for a day, you better answer me! He looked around as the crowd stumbled for answers Nevermind. On to the point. What I'd do if I was king for a day. First of all: I'd compell every member of this community under the rank of Made Man to send me a letter. That letter would tell me how great I am. It would describe, in detail, why I am loved, and it would make me cry. After all, I'm sensitive. And, frankly, I need my ego stroked. So, that's number 1. And, by the way, these are in no particular order of importance. Second: I would abolish the notion of the 'sub'crew. What is that? Why do you need sixteen subcrews when your crew can only hold 50 people? No more subcrews. Third: I would construct statues of me in every city. I make quite the bella figura, so I imagine many of you would like to stare at me as often as possible. And since I can't be in every city every second of every day, well, you need the next best thing. A very life-like statue of me in the center of the city. That's just the kind of king I am. I want to make sure that all my subjects are loyal. Fourth: I would make Dr Pepper the official soda pop of the underworld. There is far too much discussion of other drinks. It hurts my ears. There is one true soda pop, and that is Dr Pepper. In fact, I would take it a step further and banish everybody who didn't have an "I Love Dr Pepper" sticker on their ID badge. Fifth: I think I would abolish the -48 hour rule. I would certainly take the time to weigh the good and the bad of such a rule, and ultimately decide to abolish it. I don't have a particularly good reason other than to spurn some debate. I think it's probably a necessary rule to make sure that those new to these cities are given extra protection above and beyond, but I like a little bit of debate and since I'm king for a day, I decide what we talk about. Sixth: Guns will be taken from all members of this community who have not yet earned the rank of Made Man. Seriously, how long does it take to get to Made Man? I've made the determination in the ... looks at his watch ... five minutes, that all those under the rank of Made Man are not yet responsible enough to carry a gun, let alone use a gun. And besides, I'm tired of hearing that there's too much competition. And so, I will limit those who have guns, and restore order to this world. That's what I would do so far. I may have some additions later in my reign. And I'm curious, what would you do if you were king for the day? |

| The next thing I would do is shoot myself for spelling compel incorrectly. Yes, I am well aware how to spell compel. Other words, more difficult words like dog, I have trouble with, but I should at least know how to spell compel. So, yeah. I'm also well aware that I've made errors in my rant. Leave them be. I will punish myself later. | |

| If I were king for a day, I'd make the official food of the mob hot dogs and hold a huge barbecue in front of the Saint Louis arch. There's not enough hand-holding around here lately, that needs to change. | |

NewBestFriend...you are not my new best friend. That is blasphemy, and you sir are banished from my kingdom. Unless, of course, you'd like to ammend that statement to say how much you love Dr Pepper. Hedgetrimmers for Rourkey's beard. Noted. That, my friend, will get you nominated to be my jester. Oh, and it goes without saying but I'll say it anyway - Pepper (don't you love the name) shall be Queen in this kingdom. She will thump all those who say something bad about Dr Pepper in the head. |

Ah, Pepper. Goes great with parties, ice cream socials, and just about anything else when you need a good swallow. I personally endorse Dr. Pepper as the official drink of the underworld. |

If I were king for a day I would do the following: 1) I would have every business in New Orleans burned down with the exception of Peppers and Chrome Magnolia's. 2) I would shamelessly and consistantly plug The Pelicans games which can be found on http://mafiareturns.com/comm/thread/51868 3) I would make it a requirement to worship the ground I walk on... I know most of you do anyway but still come on, now it would be a rule. 4) I too would make it so that no one was allowed to join a "Family" or "Crew" they had to turn Earner... Remember everyone come get a new exp while hanging around this world and visit: http://mafiareturns.com/comm/thread/51868 |

If I were King for a day... I'd quickly return the crown and royal garments to RourkeyRourke, the self proclamed true king of the world, with a brief note of apology for briefly borrowing his vestments. I would then, very quickly, seek a long bath in an anti septic solution, or possibly bleach. This would be required to ensure that the long term effects of having donned the garments, even for a brief period of time, do not prove fatal. |

Ha ha! If I would king for a day?? Well to start, all of you would be working for me, so I would have to set and plan out how each one of you would carry your weight. I'd ban Dr. Pepper and force everyone to drink the off brand Dr. Thunder. I would do that, just so I could be the only one that drank Dr. Pepper because of my power and you all are just less than me. Marc would be my personal errand boy, Deimne would be Rourkey's personal errand boy, but I would cut his beard so that he loses his strenght and bows to me. I would make Brick the manager at a small Sprite factory and Waylander a Dr. Pepper taste tester. Cash would become a human ATM, just walk up to him and he hands out cash. Money-B would be the fire chief, in charge of buring everything day and restoring building with my name on them. Mississippi Cleaners, Mississippi Groceries, and so on... NewBestFriend would be the local alcoholic. I would stand him on a corner with a bottle in his hand. Vicodin would be in charge of all slumber parties. And at the end of the day, you would all bow to me, and song country westerns. Chemical would be the garbage-man. That the worst that could happen. Ha Ha Cav would be the former king and that's his role, simply because it was his land I took. Michael would be my toe nail manager and be in charge of maintaining my toe nails a day. Which the day before, I'd redefine the word 'day' to 'eternity' Mwhahahaha. :) Everyone else would just give me money. Now that's a true King |

Pepper thumps Mississippi on the head and shoves him out of the way. Well, Brick, I'd gladly take you up on your Queen offer, though realistically, we all know I'd be King. You're obviously a better Queen. And I say that with all the love in the world. But if I were to be Queen for a day, I'd take a bottle of Dr Pepper to the skull of the people who write me mail and spread around these street flyers who routinely misuse you're and your, and of course their, there, and they're. Once or twice is alright, but any more than that and I want to crack open a six pack. Over some heads. Also, I'd make myself Don. Because Mr. Pollitt seems to forget that everyone can get to Made in a day, except for his queen. He doesn't let me out of the basement long enough to go rob the post office. But I should, because then I could steal all the letters that are tainted with their/there/they're misuse. PLUS, I'd get new shoes. I inherited NikkiPhoenix's wardrobe when I came over here with nothing. The girl had impeccable taste, but Brick was cheap and never bought the woman new footwear. She even went so far as to consider a proposal by JimmyTheLionHeart. Seriously Brick, unclench your lump of coal to diamonds fist and give me an allowance. |
