POMPOSITY LIMITATION
A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.


Category: The Furtherment of Democracy
Strength: Mild
Proposed by: Xenonium

Description: The proponent sees the world as an all together too sad and too serious place and theorises that this isn't aided by the perpetually grey authoritarian mask worn by the UN.

To counter this the Empire of Xenonium proposes..

1) All delegates speaking, proposing, chuntering, grumbling or expounding on whatever subject in whatever manner be obliged to do in attire including:

i)humerous headgear( eg hat with flapping seagull wing or clapping hands) or blatantly obvious hairpiece (preferably with raising sidepieces)

ii) wacky false nose

iii) oversize footwear

iv) bowtie (either spinning illuminated)

v) trousers on humerously elasticated braces

2) That particularly sombre delegates be allowed to expound only after inhalation of helium

3) That all UN assemblies be concluded with custard pie fight to suitable musical accompaniment (suitable custard substitutes to be added by ammendment later)in compliance with all regulations on dairy product arms limitations treaties

4) That all further UN documentation, dictates and circulars be released in comic strip form with a free whoopee cushion.

5)That all member states be obliged to appoint a Minister for Humour to post at least once a day, regionally or gloablly for the amusement of all.

6) That all limitations on imagination and a sense of humour be outlawed and any such attempt to impose any such limitations be met with most severly (electric hand buzzer, fake dog excrement, water squirting flower or soap that turns your face black.)


I have seen this in the UN proposals list, and have decided to back it as delegate.

In the hopes of its passage; the Constitutional Republic of Tekania has already asked George Carlin to be the Republic's Secretary of Humor.

I would not support this if it came to a vote, but I do approve of the sentiment. I just think it would be mean to make Dan Hillaker look and sound like a clown. :D

Whilst I find the proposal amusing, I would vote against it :-)

How does it raise democratic freedoms? Really, it looks like a spin off of Freedom of Humor. Probably belongs in Political Stability, oddly enough.

Well... everyone looks equally ridiculous, which removes stature and clothing as class separations, meaning all speakers are presenting from a point of equality, which would make things more democratic as the nature of the arguement would have to be considered, and not the trappings.

Roman Delegate Furitina Millenia stood up. "I will NOT wear some stuffy, oversized hat! I'd like to think we had more class in here!" Then she sat back down.

Millenia stood back up with a smirk on her face. "Okay...who put a whoopie cusion under my chair? Who did it? C'mon WHO?!"

She looked around, hoping to get back at whoever did that.

93% is an A, I'll take it.
Either way, dealing with incontinence would be a crappy hand.
