Here in the underburbs of Atlantis, we are drowning in despair because our great country/continent was allowed to sink into oblivion a long, long time ago. As best we can ascertain, it happened because we did not have an international benefactor so wise, knowledgeable, charitable, honest, sincere, energetic, helpful, respected … oh, I give up.
Truth be told, we could not find a self-absorbed world wannabe leader anywhere to send us a life boat in our time of crisis. They were all so absorbed in crying in their own towels that they had not a dry eye available to help us mop up in our time of desperate need. Sorta reminds me about a place I have heard mentioned in a few rumors recently — another island jurisdiction that has apparently all but been forgotten in public pronouncements from it purported leader.
We have long since given up on any expectation of receiving any help from those we thought were leaders of friendly, neighboring population centers. In recent centuries we have descended even below bottom-feeding status in our national aspirations. All that we ask is that you not dredge our name up in a vain attempt to fish for more salty swashbuckling servitude from your serfs.
Oh, and by the way, we are so pissed about the publicity you have given to the great nation of Nambia. We can’t imagine how you could imagine to give them credibility when no-one would sink half that low on our behalf.
Oh well, thems the breakers!
