Save Your USDs: Science Fiction
Sep. 24th, 2012 09:50 amSave up all your USDs to go to British University if you expect to be able to have a job in the future galactic. Yeah, I know, it wasn't what we were expecting. America is the biggest, loudest, best! Or China or India, because they're the most populous. Possibly the Netherlands because they're oh-so-socially-advanced. Some impoverished African country that's only a country on the maps, if they wanted to really take over an area. A polite, well-mannered country a bit past its prime, stuck on a tiny island, with a relatively small population, that has its own problems? Not so much. The only reason the galactics gave was that they "liked their attitude." Some of us figure that means they were really tickled by the Dr. Who series sent streaming out into the galaxy! Others think it's based on the colonial history of England, which is a much more sinister interpretation if you think of it. Of course, this announcement has prompted some ridiculous attempts at copying Everything British, as people try to figure out how to get on the galactics' good side.
