Favorite things in Civ

Comrade Dan, are you a communist?
Am I (The original) not alone in my quest to impose a new govt. type?
Quite frankly, I'm actually an anarchist...
But communism is the closest thing so far!

Alien Infiltrate

[Comrade Dan]

The Foriegn Minister "chick" has a name: she is a talented actress called April Cantor.
I believe that those sick enough to want to make love to someone on a stragety computer game better get a social life - there is a huge world outside the Internet and your job/education.

Communism and totalitarilism go like cheese and wine - prevention of sick people and prostituition leads to a happy society.

LONG LIVE THE SOVIETS.

BUMP!
This thread is nearly 1 year old, but Orcus' song is still beautiful!! You should read that!

Jesse,

I must also shamefully admit that I enjoy
that "aspect" of Civ 2 also. We are sad. ;-)

So when is the "adult" version of Civ 2 coming out? Tyra Banks will be my "happiness" advisor.

[Orcus]

Mrtemba, put a bug in my ear, I'll see what I can do.

[mrtemba]

I love parodies, espescially the ones in MAD. But if you have any more I'd like to hear them. Espescially if they are about civ!

[Orcus]

That's funny! I like her best in a Toga. "...there will be time enough to betray them later..." Rrrrrrowf! Rowf! Oh, ahem, sorry.

[Jesse]

(inspired by Orcus, Jesse tries in vain to write a song...)

Units that aren't orange
And bombs that.... CRAP!

Oh well... so much for my song... My favorite thing is actually (looks down in shame) the foreign minister chick on the city council when she has a russian accent...

[Orcus]

Werefox, thanx :-)

Dom, about ten minutes to actually compose it. Had the show tune in my head all day, but I don't know the words so I started thinking, hmmm....

Theben, ummm, my dreams are pretty weird, dude, that would get me into trouble...

Senor Temba, have at it. If there are any requests for further parodies, I've got about a thousand under my belt from my teenage years, I'd be happy to do more (provided I know the song you're talking about). If they're not about Civ, I'll have to move to the off-topic forum.

[mrtemba]

thats the most beautiful thing I've heard in quite a while... *SOB*... Can I post that on my page??

[Theben]

As I read this, I am moved to tears(snif)...

Orcus, your talents are wasted as a consultant. FOLLOW YOUR DREAM, BABY!

[Dominikos]

I say, that's pretty good.

How much time did you spend putting that piece together Orcus?

[werefox]

that's beautiful! ^_^

my favorite things are the sound of tromping feet as i march into a captured city, and that special, magical moment when the city's name appears half in the enemy civ's color and half in my color. especially if it's the capital of the most powerful civ and contains nine or ten wonders. ha ha.

[Orcus]

(Sung to the similar tune from Sound Of Music)
Cavalry charging, and howitzers blazing
Infantry marching, and stealth bombers razing
Seagoing transport ships full of marines
These are a few of my favorite things

Fortified legions, and wars for peace keeping
City improvements, and nights without sleeping
Citizens crying out, "We love the King!"
These are a few of my favorite things

When the walls break,
When the bombs drop,
When the air-raid sounds
I simply remember my favorite things
And hope my AkAk...
Has rounds

Pyramids, Lighthouse, and Great Wall all pending
Republic governments increasing spending
Manhattan Project and all that it brings
These are a few of my favorite things

When the nukes launch
When the globe warms
When the Celts are dead
I simply remember my favorite things
And face the workday...
With dread....

Merry Christmas all
