Save the Oranges Foundation

Unread post by Zammorak » Sun Jan 03, 2010 10:47 pm

Save the Oranges Foundation

It is time that we bring up a very important issue that may effect Paradox as we know it. The Paradox orange is becoming endangered. This problem has gotten so far out of hand that the closest thing you can find to a Paradox orange in the local market is a piece of orange necklaceless candy, quickly followed by a carrot. I assure you that this is not to be taken lightly, as global warming in the region of Paradox has lowered the orange population to one, and that one is my chat avatar. So please, do your part for the community and help bring back this delectable fruit.

Thank god this issue has been raised!!

I thought I was the only one that lost sleep over this highly emotive issue...........

We need a think tank, and a blender of gender generated solutions now! :idea:

Perhaps if we are able to save the endangered orange, our scientists can find a way to bring back the long-extinct lemon as well.

You're wiping out an entire species from the face of Paradox! This is genocide! D:

It never existed. Maybe in a few million years the orange will "evolve" from other plants :P

Yeah? Well... your mom!

But more on task, we need someone to build an Al Goreesque slideshow about why we should save the oranges. It would certainly show those genocidal dev's that the near extinction of the Paradox orange is in some way related to Al Gore's sister dying of lung cancer when he was a child!

Oranges aren't herbs. Herbs are for (leaf) enjoying hippies.

But my pills make the oranges go away... is what I would say if I were completely insane, but in this case I believe it to be more effective to ask you why oranges? Why Godd, why?!

I'd love to examine the brain that jumps from "damn there's no sheep around" to "hey why don't I fellate some paper"

If the world were in the shape of the taco, there would be different parts of the earth with different gravitational attractions, so the Olympics would have to be in the same place every 2 years.
