@Tchaikovsky, thats a missquote.

Question: Did Ben Franklin say "Beer is proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy?"

Answer:

The short answer is no. There is no evidence that Franklin ever said this. Well, no evidence aside from that quote being attributed to him on tee shirts hanging in the gift shops of 90% of brewery gift shops and that this misquote is trotted out every time a journalist is assigned a beer story which he researches only as deeply as Wikipedia.



To be fair, there are so many sources that use this quote that it is easy to understand when someone believes it to be true. Besides that, it is such a lovely idea and who else would have said but our beloved founding father who also told us to fart proudly.

Franklin did write, "Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, there it enters the roots of the vines, to be changed into wine, a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy."

It is sort of the same sentiment and it is understandable that someone some time back was trying to remember that thing Franklin said about some alcoholic drink and, without double-checking her source, came up with this misquote.

Monokuma said the most Zeph like line I have ever heard:

“So warm and wet, so wet and warm... I bet you guys - [REMOVED TO CONFORM WITH LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL CENSORSHIP LAWS] - all over her, didn't you?”









Monokuma discovering emoticons




Oh, I've just recently discovered the power... of emoticons! Like, no matter how awful something is, if you toss in a smiley face, it turns positive!

For example...You're at a picnic and you find a dead body! XD

[...]

And how about the reverse? No matter how great something is, if you put in a sad face, it makes it look super negative!

For example...Do you have a hundred friends? T_T

[...]

Now then, please get on the elevator! o_O

I'll see you all down there! <( * - *< ) ^ ( * - * ) ^ ( > * - * ) >
