My friends,

Every great people requires a great cause. Some choose the path of national pride; others of religion. Yardistan, too, requires a cause. And I propose to you that this cause should be that of Inquisitance.

What, you may ask, is inquisitance? It is nothing more or less than a campaign in which the participants inquisite others. This funny little word, "inquisite", is one that has been made up to denote a particular kind of questioning, different from "inquire" in that it denotes something far less polite and, sometimes, slightly more threatening. For example:

Inquire: "Could you please tell me where the mustard is?"
Inquisite: "Could you PLEASE tell me WHERE the friggin' mustard is? HUH?!?"

For a people who question even the basic fact of government, it behooves us to question everything else as well, to be in a state of anarchy of knowledge. And this questioning must be done literally, forcefully, and with incredulity. If there is something you do not know, or believe is wrong, do not simply accept it! Turn to your neighbor, greet zir politely, and then demand to know WHY the sky never falls (not even ONCE!), even though Chicken Little SAID it would! And if zie answers, determine how the answer is wrong, especially if it sounds too logical to be true.

But note that an Inquisitance is not the same thing as an Inquisition! For an inquisition, though similarly harsh and brutal, is designed to get a particular result, or focus on a particular subject, and to terrorize a certain group of people. Not here! For the Inquisitance is not so limited. It seeks not one fact, but all knowledge; in finding it, it does not accept, but reject it! And we do not repeatedly target individuals of a group, but hit anyone we meet with one question!

I challenge you, the Yardistani people, to do this. And in this spirit, I also ask of you:

If windows are supposed to be so clear, WHY CAN WE STILL SEE OUR REFLECTIONS IN THEM, huh? Riddle me THAT!

Why the FUCK am I even listening to you, BITCH?

What the HELL gives you the RIGHT to talk to Shyriath that way, MOTHERFUCKER?!

ASSWIPES, shut your DAMN mouths!


Chicken-wusses....

*Savagely backhands Greg across the face.* That's a slap in the face, BITCH! Why the FUCK would you use that kind of FUCKING LANGUAGE?! Just like that FUCKOFF, EDWARD II! Do you know who Edward II is, HUH?! DO YOU KNOW WHO THAT IS, MOTHERFUCKER?!

Mothfucker, I KNOW who that is!

...shit, I don't know...






...


maybe we should stop swearing?

Hell no! *Smack.*

Fuck... this is really lewd. I'm glad I put that motherfucking warning on there. This is also really fucking immature. *smack*

You fuck cows in retrospect.

Translation: Seriously, you can do better than this, Shyriath.

Besides, inquisitance sounds like a term from electrical engineering anyway.

Well, I wasn't aiming for profanity in particular.... or anything; I took the first odd thing that popped into my head and ran with it. I wanted to try something random rather than premeditated, but I suppose that's not my strong suit.

I'll see if I can come up with something better. In the meantime, does anyone have other suggestions? Shall we invade one of the other Duchies? Rebel? Invent our own religion? We could worship the almighty Iguana Sandwich with Extra Cheese...

I'd suggest invading another duchy and being as annoying about it as possible. Don't just make a single thread about it, actually invade, declare superiority, makes decrees, supress resistance, etc.

THAT would be a bit more satisfying.

Yes, with the war against Antica coming up soon, you'd make a perfect internal disruption.

Nah, we do it just to be annoying. In fact, we might consider not doing it after all just to annoy you for ruining a planned part of your recwar. BECAUSE THAT'S HOW WE ROLL.

It wasn't planned. I t was spontaneous, MUTHAF*CKA!

Pardon me. I know I'm not Yardistani, and I am fairly new here, but whatever happened to the great and legendary Yardistani Annexation Corps? Has that institution been disbanded? And why are you just using profanity instead of acting like real Yardistani? I expected more imagination and inventiveness from you guys.

*liberates Yardistani inventiveness"

My apologies, baroness. I'm not even Yardistani, myself..what am I doing here? *Wanders off*

The fact that Yardistan is "alive," if that's what you can call it, is nothing less than pure chance and a name change. This really isn't Yardistan, as much as it's trying to be.

Maybe if this place starts acting crazy proper the YAC will rear it's head again...

I haven't seen a good annexation in a while...

Invasion? Hmmmmm. Right then.

Edit: The party is now in Vorpmadal. They shall be annexed into our loving embrace! Yardistani and Yardistani-minded, follow me!

That's more like it!

Yay! Yardistan is back!

They're trying to resist. Make more threads about the Yardistani occupation and make it clear that you won't back down just because they don't like it, and maybe, just maybe, you'll get my support.
