That’s a CURSE. That’s CURSING.
When I was a boy, my “evil sister” was pissing me off …

THAT was GAME THEORY.

Commies talk about the “state withering away” at some point, and this is great …
What the commies DON’T tell you is that the human race also withers away …
200 years in the future of communism? – you have 2 people, huddled by a fire, covered in tumors, being yelled at by a third person dressed in tore up Stalin style pant suit …
(that’s the state withering away)
