That's right.

Wheat!
I hope I inflected that correctly, I have trouble pronouncing foreign languages.

Close.

It's actually "wheat", not "wheat".

Oh, thank you.

Hm. After my scathing insults, I thought you would have been more upset.

Wheat, wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat, wheat wheat wheat. Wheat wheat wheat. Wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat, wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat. Wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat! Wheat wheat wheat wheat wheat.

Lily Canon: each wheat is pronounced in a different accent, and that’s how you get meaning. Rich Central African wheat means everything’s good, but mix in a little cockney with that and it becomes a silly.

You do of course understand there’s no real war in this game, yes?

Okay, suit yourself. I’ve better things to do.

Exactly, and these filthy penguins are coming here and stealing our jobs!

But this way we can cause havoc and blame them. This is always why you get low scores on the long term planning category on our yearly performance reviews.

Tsk, tsk.

You never did get good marks in profiteering and masterminding.

By making it illegal for new penguins to come in or live here, the penguins who are here and have lives here will go to great lengths to stay rather than return to a home they have never been to or have to money or family in. They'll be willing to work for low wages as virtual slaves, unable to resist lest we ship them off. Without money to be able to make a life elsewhere, they become trapped. We then blame all of our problems on their cheap labour driving prices down, making for an easy at-home enemy without making ourselves enemies on the world stage by blaming others for our issues.

With low wages and substandard living conditions combined with more favourable international relations leading to lower tariffs here and abroad, our profits will soar, allowing for short term rapid expansion as we overtake the market until eventually we slow down growth to a more manageable rate to fit the market itself as it grows, having successfully established a virtual monopoly on the pebble and penguin meat markets.

hey i'm back

So we went to lunch and while I was standing in line these two guys were behind me and apparently they were looking me up and down. Getting stared at while on lunch barely phases me anymore cause I'm usually in scrubs, covered in fur and dog crap. But these guys were being gross about it. So my grandma (we work together) comes over, gives them the dirtiest look I've ever seen and stands behind me until we get back to the Jeep 😂

Sorry to hear about rude behavior towards you.

Oh. Real War? Of course there is.

Verbal War.

You try and tell Auphelia that Dark Chocolate with mangoes is the supreme flavour of chocolate.
