Cool Looking back at SYM 1000 years from now...

Okay, I was just thinking, (dangerous I know) but do you realize what would happen if 1000 years from now, the only record left of our culture was SYM?

I mean look at it, what would the future think our lives were like?

A society of drunken, barhopping spam worshippers who followed a Diety named Thorin, who lived with the constant threat of BANNING (what hell could that encompass?).
The society had an all consuming thirst for togas and mini-skirts, so much so that it was seen as a badge of honor to steal them.

They were split into 2 factions, Spammers, and Lurkers, until a communicating Weasel brought forth Communication.

The constant preoccupation of the day seemed to be the number following their name which seems to have been some sort of status symbol.

The only law was the law of the mods, which could be bought and the law of flame.

They existed soley on cookies and alchohol (Guiness being the most prevalent)

This discovery has spawned a new SYM cult here in the present day.

And thus it will begin again.

P.S., life was cool then!

The SYMmers were a polytheistic people. As well as the aforementioned god, Thorin, the spammers woshipped at the shrine of Weasel, and there seems to be some evidence that they revered the devil, whom they knew as Buck Satan.

Those who gained power often sat upon the Throne of Weasel, and were entertained through grande encounters of Fish-fighting. they were protected by the powerful Anti-Lurker Cannon. All over the place, boudoirs and bars littered the lands. Powerful people, knowen only as Pre-SYMer's seemed to hold the most power, but there were those who worked their way up...

Anti-Lurker canon!!!???!?!?

I must consider this carefully.

Also, there were rummors of several animal cults(mostly sheep) and the constant threat of the resident militia, the Pantsless Marines.

You never saw the anti-lurker cannon?

The most dangerous creature in the whole of SYM, though rarely seen, was known as the T'raptor.

Sick members of the community were treated by a medicine man, Doc Waverly. It is unknown whether his purple pills did in fact have medical benefits.

Maybe you could sacrifice a few of your people? Nobody will notice they're gone, after all...

that only happens under extreme circumstances. I don't care what you heard to the contrary.

Besides, I would miss them. If it came to it, I would take the hit for my people

*puts on a brave face*

damn, I think Aegis's measels are catching
