Still, though... Burger King.

Best name for Nord Kore'er? Or bestest name for Nord Kore'er?

A bit insensitive to name a population that's basically been starved to death by it's rulers after a fast-food icon.

Any more insensitive to the South Koreans to name their rival Best Korea? Or even insensitive to the North Koreans to name their oppressive government Best Korea?

It's the government, not the people, that's Burger King. The people are Korean. Even after 60 years.

Nukes aside, what sort of stacks could Best Korea plausibly support? Their tech is relatively shitty, so probably just about all their neighbors have at least double their number of regiments and far more than that in terms of unit effectiveness and leader skills. The only thing Best Korea could really do in a ground war would be to scorch the earth and hope the invaders get bogged down in sieges.


This is far more fun than it has any right to be.
Well, NK is pumping pretty much their entire economy into their military. They're pretty much in a constant state of Total War, without much to fight against.

They're like a balloon. Poke them lightly and they'll pop. Except there's a chance that the pop will drop and active grenade at your feet because Kim's a fucking lunatic.

Best Korea is an ironic name, kind of like calling a tall guy shorty, or America America and not the United States.

Everyone knows it's not what it implies. In this case the only think NK is Best at is being cracked in the collective noggin. I don't even know what kind of government they're running anymore, it's not a communism, it's not fascist, Dictatorship implies more freedoms than the NK civvies have...

I figured that Descan was just poking fun at Kim Jong-Un's weight with the Burger King crack.

It's pretty much an example of the worst excesses of Monarchy in all but name. You got the king, who rules through divine right (Born in a volcano? Out of a butterfly? I don't even know the myth any more, I just know it's insane.) You got the hereditary rule. You have basically all power vested in him... It's a kingdom, basically. Just not called a kingdom.

Also, what MZ said, and the Best Korea -> BK -> Burger King, plus the King from the above. SEE IT ALL SLIDES INTO PLACE.

Plus, the King is fucking creepy. Which NK is. SO EVEN MORE SLIDING.

DAMN SON I'M ALL UP IN THE SLIPPING AND THE SLIDING ALL AROUND THE WORD PLAY TODAY.

Remember Iron Sky? It was originally about how Best Korea is secretly relocating everyone to the Moon. They'll invade on whatever day in 2025 is supposed to be the REAL END OF THE WORLD SRSLY GUYS.  :P

Stop it Facebook, this is getting weird.  I don't mind the gay advertisements with shirtless men, but now you're advertising shirtless men in various kneeling positions of supplication.  I don't care if you call it "gay Christian dating" or "gay Christian social-o-matic."  Sure that's something people are into, but not me.
