Those Too Dumb to Live can choose between sterilisation, exile, or a quick and painless death.

Although I believe in the separation of Church and State, Proselytizing in religions will be illegal. Anyone can believe what they want, but no force-feeding of religions!

Loophole Abuse can get you a life sentence.

Burning books will get you the death penalty. If the book is truly awful, you will become a Hero of the Nation.

No more Final Fantasy games, only because there cannot be more than one FINAL fantasy.

Regulations on corporations-they are no longer allowed to screw you out of anything that isn't reasonable. I would go into great length about this, but I doubt any of you would care to hear it.

[up][up] Fuck no, that's even more generic.

I mean, like, maybe seeing the Prime Minister of Japan come to international meetings in a kimono and stuff like that.

It's basically me saying, "Hello, Western Europe, tunic exist and depending on the make they're perfectly acceptable for formal or casual wear. You don't necessarily have to wear suits and ties. Just saying."

They've never been allowed to screw you out of anything that isn't reasonable. Fair practice legislation, and all that.

It's just that "reasonable" is one of these nebulous terms that's always the subject of legal dissection.

When I said casual Friday, I mean where damn near whatever the hell you want. You want to wear a suit and tie? Go right ahead, but all the other cool people will point and laugh at you.

Is wearing, say, a hanbok considered acceptable by the cool people?

  • I will establish an official (peaceful) army and navy of linguists and assistants to travel about the world and record endangered languages before they are lost forever.

[up] Aren't they?

I'm glad they're still being worn for festivals and traditional occasions and such, but it kind of saddens me that Western fashion has pushed fashions like the hanbok to the wayside.

Rock music is now enforced as the norm for pop.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

^That's kind of really open to intepretation, though, because a lot of pop these days is "rock", for certain definitions of "rock".

In contrast I will mandate state-controlled faith-offs every month.

On the subject of religion, I'll fund the restoration and reconstruction of dead religions, and the campaigns necessary for telling the masses, "Hey! This religion exists! You can worship it if you'd like!"

All news reports about a person/people killed in an accident/hurricane/etc. will start with:

"And X amount of people, who are sadly, not Glenn Beck, Rupert Murdoch, or Steve Jobs, were killed in an..."

At keast one witness or guest on the news show must say: "AND IT WAS THE BODY OF A DEAD GIRL/BOY/CHILD/ETC.,... WHO WAS NOT Glenn Beck, Rupert Murdoch or Steve Jobs! HOW COULD SUCH HORROR BEFALL SOMEONE WHO IS NOT THOSE PEOPLE?!"

On the topic of religions, they will be made an intensely private matter. Proselytizing of any sort (aside from state supported atheism) will result in being strung up as a scarecrow on the capitol palace.

I will either force religious organizations to be completely non-profit or dissolve them entirely.

I'm glad that's popular.

The next step will be to make sure that endangered languages stay alive—set up programs and schools that teach the language so that the next generation of children is learning that language alongside the lingua franca if necessary. And make a little more exposure, too—publish traditional songs and tales, dictionaries and grammar books, and maybe even get a newspaper started.

Everyone will have perfect looking toenails, and as a result, will be required to wear open toe footwear on every Sunday except whenever Easter is.

If you use a pen, you must put the cap back on.

Everyone must pee inside the toilet bowl, all who don't will have to stand in someone else's pee and poo for 45 minutes, while singing "My Heart Will Go On."

  • Trying to be a smartass is now banned
  • Evangelism is allowed, as long as you don't tell people that they are going to hell. Unless it's a smartass, then you do whatever.
