THANKS THIS IS GREAT

maybe this has already been said about hchangeri and her affinity for atlas shrugged and john galt...just throw pointy objects at me if it already has, but it really pisses me off when people use ayn rand's philosophy or whatever to show how smart and super awesome they are. i've read both atlas shrugged and the fountainhead and the whole thought process behind them is so elitist for lack of a better term. only people that fit specific qualifications of super capitalism and intelligence and particular aesthetic principles need apply. minus the super capitalism, what does hchangeri bring to the table? there's no way she would be one of ayn rand's chosen...

I don't know if it's been said, but I have certainly thought that too.
*NB* I haven't read any Rand, only about her so this is from an almost completely uninformed position.
The philosophy seems to be that the highly skilled and able (self diagnosed "betters") should be completely devoid of altruism and philanthropic tendencies. Her incredible ego encourages her to use this philosophy to justify her selfishness but I fail to see how what HChangeri does qualifies her for this and the level of recompense she expects exceeds her abilities and contributions by such a degree as makes her love of Rand more laughable.

Quote from: "Enelar"
Using laws and guilt? Kinda like Paysite owners?  :roll:

Ah, but the law isn't actually on the side of paysite owners, so all they really have is guilt. I, however, as a black-hearted pirate, have no guilt.

That is the basic premise of The Fountainhead.  However, HChangeri seems to identify more with Atlas Shrugged, different book whole other set of ideals. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_Shrugged

Its not an ideal of elitism or being the "elitist chosen". It doesn't matter if you are Bill Gates, a blue collar worker, or a granny who bakes and sells pies.

We didn't get a proper killmark for those because we have to be implicated in some element of their closing. In this case, the shirt gives us the credit.

If you've got a free simshost acount you can download all the pay stuff for free until it closes. So it's kinda worth getting a free account now.....
