Workshop Booze Up V - We're going to the future!

[Jubal]

I approve of this post. A lot. 

[Gen_Glory]

so what are going to be the biggest changes with bannerlord?

[Cuddly Khan]

The map? Maybe the graphics improved a little bit, maybe character creation too. I don't know. I feel sieges can be improved quite a bit.

[Silver Wolf]

From what I've seen, everything has improved a lot.
Especially graphics. Which is the hardest part to follow.

This is really quite cool, puts ads on your new tab page but they autodonate to charity every time you open a tab.

Ok, it's time for a new Word of the week..

And it's debauchery.

I know, it's a fairly common word, but this time I'd like to give my own twisted personal view of this beautiful assemblage of random armadillo letters.

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines debauchery as:

- extreme indulgence in sensuality
- bad or immoral behavior that involves sex, drugs, alcohol, etc.

But why is debauchery always presented in such bad manner?
Let's see the list of related words:

bad, badness, blackness, evil, evildoing, ill, turpitude, villainy, wickedness, wrong; atrociousness, evilness, heinousness, sinfulness, unscrupulousness, viciousness, vileness, villainousness; devilry (or deviltry), fiendishness; corruptness, debasement, degeneracy, degeneration, depravedness, dissoluteness, dissolution; indecency, lasciviousness, lechery, lewdness, looseness, perversion, pervertedness, wantonness; abomination, anathema, taboo (also tabu); criminality, reprehensibleness; baseness, despicableness, dirtiness, lowness, meanness; lousiness, miserableness, wretchedness

But how come not a single thought was given about presenting this wonderful verbal expression in at least some kind of positive meaning?
That's why I'd like to share these two (possibly fictional) stories and let you decide.

Let's look at our pal, and let's call him Johnny.
Johnny is a 30 year old guy, works in an office, has stable incomes and his own personal apartment. Way to go, Johnny.

Now lets look at our pal, Super Johnny.
Super Johnny is a guy who appears to be around his early thirties, but you can't really tell due to his debauched lifestyle. Super Johnny has seen things. He's done things which ordinary Johnny will probably never experience. He works in an office, and it's one hell of place, some would say. Indecency and corruption on every step. Fortunately, Super Johnny has had his share of such experiences, and manages to accomplish things quite effectively in his own way, no questions asked. Why? Because he is Super Jonny, with this psychopathic charm and this is his natural territory.
His apartment. Now that's a whole new story. Let's just say that this place has seen it's share of indulgence, sin and immoral behavior.
Super Johnny, you're one sexy beast and one of rare creatures worth knowing, no matter the cost.

I hope I have proved my point.
Thank you for following this second part of "Word of the week". I'm Silver Wolf and I don't like turtles too much.


Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

[Jubal]

What's your stance on other reptiles? 

[Silver Wolf]

Well I'm fine with reptiles.
Turtles are okay, I guess. But I'm not crazy about turtles. They look funny when they eat. I guess that's a plus.

Also tortoise sounds so much better. Turtle sounds like turd.

[Jubal]

I found a baby turtle in Cyprus. Unfortunately it was dead and decapitated; they have a difficult start to life :/

[Silver Wolf]

I had a pet turtle for one day when I was a kid. Then the next day I took it back exactly where I found it.

I didn't do much. I fed it and it still didn't look even remotely happy.
