Varak:You tell the mangy, pointy-eared gortok, in sirihish: "What, girl? You say the sorceror-king has fallen down the well?"
Ghardoan:A pitiful voice rises from the well below, "I've fallen and I can't get up..."

9. So that once the Imms stop smoking meth long enough to get my account woes cleared up, I will have some new people to harass and molest.

4. Knowing that because of you, there are more people in the world to mudsex roleplay with.
"Last night a moth came to my bed
and filled my tired weary head
with horrid tales of you, I can't believe it's true.
But then the lampshade smiled at me -
It said believe, it said believe.
I want you to know it's nothing personal."

1. Because, by living under a system of government, you are, very personally, the author of that government's deeds, and therefore intimately responsible for everything your government does.
There is no general doctrine which is not capable of eating out our morality if unchecked by the deep-seated habit of direct fellow-feeling with individual fellow-men. -George Eliot

Unless you have awesome stats and are a ranger.

Not the weiner ones who always ask you if you have a bow on sale that your grandma could pull.
"When I was a fighting man, the kettle-drums they beat;
The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

Tis went out of order!   :o

That's only because #5 doesn't make any sense and Tisiphone probably tried to google something clever to add to the conversation, so when she finally found something, she thought we'd be at #1 by then.

No, it's because she's reading Hobbes right now, I'm pretty sure. And she doesn't play by the rules. (Top ten reasons we love Tis, #s 8 and 4.)

But if you, while living under said system of government, found or join an organization having as a principal goal its violent overthrow?
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

I've always justified my absence at the polls through a commitment to revolutionary ideals and active participation in political organizations. 
I voted for Arm today. Despite not playing much.
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."

"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.

"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
