I can see it now. "I want a goblin!". "Go get him another kid shorter then him and paint him green," *sigh*
Wikileaks Exposes North Korean Dictator's Son as Gaming Nerd

As it tends to be,there is a bit of a purist sense to dictatorship.I may be wrong but that is what I have observed.
Oh damn. Someone mentioned "Homefront." Now I can't stop laughing about that. I can only imagine cutscenes concerning the strained relationship between the siblings and their father who openly criticizes their potential dictator standings.
"And every box comes with a free tissue!"
Somebody whip out the Hagan-Daz, boys; between the firefights this is going to be an emotionally bumpy ride.

And I am taking no leaps in logic. South Korea has roughly 500 modern planes. It stands to reason that with a public declaration of intent the airforce would be used to respond to any attack.
Yes I assume the South Koreans have contingencies. Yes I assume they use the airforce extensively. This is not a leap in logic because they have told us this is what they will do. I am not making vague promises I am assuming the South Koreans have contingencies because that is what military leaders do. They plan for eventual conflicts. Of course I can't offer specifics I am not a South Korean general.
Also I have not said they have it all sorted. But the silly questions you proposed are simple logistic's that are the job of the South Korean leaders to prepare for. They will have it covered. Any military leader that cannot calculate the fuel usage for his Jet planes is grossly incompetent and wouldn't be allowed to remain.
My original point is still valid. But a better word to describe you is facetious. Oh and yes you are overreacting, pathetically so.
That's just funny.
Oddly enough, one could argue that people who play online games are MORE prepared for real life in some ways...People tend to surround themselves with like-minded creatures in the physical world. You can't always do that online, what with most people being impeccable proof of the Greater Internet Fuckbucket Theory, so us gamers tend to learn quicker how to deal with people we don't necessarily agree with.

At the peak of the cold war Houston, my home town had 100 nuclear war heads pointed at us. And not a single fuck was given. Right now it's purported that there are still 100 war heads designated just for our little port city. But then again Russia isn't as crazy as NK. But additionally I think that the US has its missile defense line set up near Seoul although I doubt it could stop a barrage of conventional bombs...Xombee said:
Well hey if he's playing games online (anyway) he will most likely run across 'his eneimies' from the south at some stage. Who knows he may even decide not all people from the other side of the border are evil.
North Korea vs South Korea in the Iron General Challenge 6 hours of non stop starcraft lunacy, no cigarette or toilet breaks, only the bravest will win. Now that would be interesting..... peace through gaming could it happen?

I"m not exactly surprised when the country below them is possibly the most competitive country when it games to competitive gaming.
But I some how doubt that this kid playing on games is going to help him be a dictator. He's a bit... um... chubby, to do anything in videogames.

Nah, that was the caught-in-Japan-with-fake-passport-trying-to-visit-Disneyland-with-his-mistress-and-who-lives-and-gambles-in-Macao-because-he's-not-wanted-in-North-Korea-Kim.GrizzlerBorno said:I saw on the BBC once, that one of the "Evil step-brothers" (hehe) was infamously quoted for saying that he "didn't agree with his country's Hereditary Rule system. he wasn't against his family, but he didn't support the system", or something like that? Why do i have a feeling that it's THAT guy, because he's a gamer; and I'm prejudiced.
Except the work camps... and testing chemical weapons on prisoners... and, of course, the general "you looked at our dear leader in a weird way" type of reasons to arrest people AND their family members.Jabberwock xeno said:
