The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy.

The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akura! te speling.

Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

Und efter ze fifz yer, ve ! vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.
That was wickedly brilliant. I want to make you my ambassador to Germany. Erm, with Acally's permission of course .

In the meantime, well done Midge on the questions!

And Acalewia as well.

Although... is it entirely fair she can answer questions her own running mate put up?

Of course it's fair. I made sure to make all the questions ambiguous enough. And I'm not opposed to someone else putting up their own set of questions for the candidates. In fact, I'm ALL for it! Please, somebody do write another set of them.

Besides, I posted the questions BEFORE I became her VP.

You massive liar. You accepted a half hour before you posted the questions. Everyone can click "page 4" of this thread.

I have to say, though:

Quote:
#9. Short essay question: Who is your favorite Tolkien character? Explain why. Explain how this character has inspired your decision to run for president, and why this character's ideals are right for everyone.
This question is sheer genius.

Everyone knows that can be explained By the meddling of the mods. They rearranged my posts and time stamps. Simple as that.

Okay candidates, listen up. The first one that makes a platform where admins can do that, will get my vote.

Oh wait, I'm not supposed to vote.

Dang.

I still want that power!

I thought it was Hitler, in 1635? I'll have to consult my history book.


Come now, candidates, you're slacking on answering the questions .

I'm sorry, but I don't speak that language. I speak Geometry and Food-in-Mouth, though! The latter one is an oral language only, with no written component.

You're acting as if Acally were neglecting her duties. She is, in fact, formulating her answers right now.

Is Food-in-Mouth as dangerous as Foot-in-Mouth? If so, I gotta try it.

Teacup Table Gazette Special Report!

Shocking news has just surfaced about one of the current candidates for Entmoot office!

A gold bag has surfaced on Lake Mootya early this morning. It contained a list of the names of all the mooters involved in last year's vile Chocolate-For-Mods scandal. Investigations are ongoing. Stay tuned.

WANT TO STAY YOUNG FOREVER? TRY NERMODEXTRO. NO NEEDLES, NO PILLS, JUST AND EASY-TO-DRINK LIQUID THAT WILL MAKE YOU STAY YOUNG FOREVER!
Please consult your doctor before using NERMODEXTRO. May cause extreme gastric pain, altercation of the muscles, and violent seizures. Do not try NERMODEXTRO unless you really really want to stay young.

All I can say is...wow

And I wonder who it is!
