Let The Crowd Decide
All the fireworks launched over the 30 minute period of the planned show or all at once? | |
Before every fireworks show the announcer should do that
vote thing where they use a decibel meter to gauge the
crowd's reaction.
"Ok, who wants to see the show as planned? It's about 30
minutes and set to various classical music pieces, carefully
choreographed and beautifully executed."
Crowd:
"Yaaaaaaay!"
"Ok, got the reading on that. Who wants to see us shoot
'em
all off at once?"
"YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY! ALL AT ONCE!!! ALL AT ONCE!!!
ALL
AT ONCE!!!"
"Allllll righty then, I don't think we need to check the meter
on that one.
Ok, let 'er rip!"
Now it might not turn out this way every time, but it would
be nice to have the choice.
And as that is probably my last idea for 2015, wishes for a
happy New Year to all the wonderful Halfbakers. May most
of
our ideas be bunned in 2016.

As a group, or one by one? (Happy New Year doctorsoandso.) |

[Ian] I think that's what's called overreaction. |
|
| |
Besides, you haven't even annexed Austria and the Sudetenland yet ... |
|
| |
So the poor old ostrich died for nothing ? |
|
| |
//you haven't even annexed Austria and the Sudetenland yet// You don't have to wait for that, do them all at once why not? |
|
| |
//Okay, now who thinks we should invade
Poland!// |
|
| |
Actually, now that you mention it, it does sound
quite tempting. I mean, I can sort of see how the
Germans, after a few beers, would have seen it as
something to do. |
|
| |
On the other hand, if we _did_ decide to invade
Poland, is it one of those things we'd feel
embarrassed about the next morning? Or would
we just be faced with a bunch of very pissed-off
Poles asking why we'd invaded, with no really good
explanation? |
|
| |
Ah, fuck it. THere are some things that you just
have to do, even if they're going to look like a bad
idea the morning after. OK, I'm on for invading
Poland. Anyone else coming? |
|
| |
Wait. Which way is Poland? |
|
| |
Over there, just follow where the barrel of your panzer is pointing. |
|
| |
You have to have enough forces - infantry, armour, artillery - and the corresponding logistical support. Not as easy as you might think. |
|
| |
If it was as simple as getting together your mates from down the pub, handing out a few armbands, camo jackets, and an AK47 each, well, everyone would be doing it. |
|
| |
That is where you are wrong. |
|
| |
We've hatched a cunning plan. While all the Poles,
Syrians and Eritreans are piling up against the fences
at Calais, we're going to nip in and occupy their
countries. |
