Trotsky or Stalin?

Which would win at The Price Is Right? :p

Hey, if there can be fifty-odd shite threads about supermarkets...

Trotsky, hands down. Even though both were pretty hardcore about ideology, Trotsky definitely had a better grasp on reality when it came to prices and the economy.

How much is this ICEPICK?

Trotsky had what it took to modify Lenin's policies (e.g., the NEP) toward a better direction, but Stalin was such a hardliner that the country went to shit real fast. That said, Trotsky would win PIR.

Easy... Troksky.

He was a brillant man. Stalin was a power hungry asshole dictator.

Leon would play too fair..... alongside uncle Joe anyhow. And as Rocket Mick pointed out, once they would get to the frozen department!

He'd get an earful?

It's got be Stalin. Stalin would be more in touch with the common man so would be more likely to know the price of goods, before sending the common man to the Gulag. Whereas Trotsky was an intellectual so probably wouldn't know the price of a pint of milk let alone what would be on the Price is Right.

Stalin. trotski was too intellectual for his own good. Sure, he could bend Marxism to fit any situation but he was not smart enough to stay alive. Lenin was fucking clueless. He was lucky to be in Russia when the revolution hit, others did all the work. Stalin made not pretenses about being an intellectual aloof asshole. He was able to use his office as general secretary to build power and held on to that power until his death of natural causes. Being a filthy Georgian bank robber he probably had a better grasp of the price of goods.

Yes, but Trotsky could better articulate the bourgeois dependency on shopping as being simply a crux upon which the aristocracy control the populace while the proletariot suffer. And he would totally kick Joe's ass at Plinko :p

Bob: "What is your bid on the Hawaii vacation package, Leon?"

Trotsky: "Not for all the rubles in Russia, Bob. It is but another way for the proletariot to be abused."

Bob: "How about the Camry and Jet-Ski package, Joseph?"

Stalin: "Yuri, slit the tan man's throat. He's obviously plotting against me"

Sancho Panza

"...and then she said, 'You're sitting in it!' Ha-ha-ha!"

"That is a real knee-slapper, Joe..."

Lenin and Stalin: The Voice of Their Generation

"Comrades! Imagine no possessions..."

"Yeah, like possession of marijuana..."

:D

I'm like a wild stallion, babe. You can't fence me in...

Okay, more like a horse's ass :D

Anyway, I'd love to, but my imaginary wife Denise Richards might have a problem with it. Not to mention my fake man-crush David Hasselhoff

Wait, boyfriend? Does he know you go around proposing marriage to Commie strangers that you barely know online?

And also, does he mind paying your bus fare to my part of the country? :p

haha, no, he doesn't. besides, he's working in BC right now..and if he found out that I was proposing to a stranger (note: singular, not plural ;)) online, I'm sure he's prefer a Commie stranger than anything else!

As for the bus fare, I'd just have to switch my airline ticket that I'm supposed to use to visit him next week to my new destination

Who knew starting a BS thread about two of the leading lights of Soviet culture would lead to the love and happiness I've sought all my life!

hehe well, now that you've adequately distracted me from my homework, it's time for me to get back to making Russian phrases plural and agreeing russian adjectives with the nouns that they modify..

unless you want to do it for me..?

Note to Tabbsy: She's hot. Not "hot" as in "still has a body temperature and a pulse" hot; no, she's "hot" as in "The Continental would be all over this" hot.

If you get my drift....

I'm sorry, I don't follow

Erm, never mind. It's nothing.

Now, smoking jacket? Check. Shampanya? Check. Tabbsy mask? Hell, where'd I put my damn Tabbsy mask? Can't keep her waiting....

guess I lost his interest already..poor Victoria. :(

I've got the Barry White cranked up, the lights down low, and the finest store-bought wine-in-a-box out of the fridge and poured into my collecter's "Episode One Pod Race" glasses from Burger King...:\pimp:

Oh yeah...

You see Tabbsy? She doesn't want some cheesy Tabbsy substitute in some cheesy rubber Tabbsy mask. She wants the real deal! That's you-- Tabbsy, the Real Deal.

So stop looking for the damn Tabbsy mask already. You don't need it. You ARE Tabbsy. Now go out there and give her what she wants!

Do you follow my drift?

yet I do have to admit that I don't really like star wars episode one.. though I practically grew up on episodes 4-6..and burger king has really salty poutine but you guys don't even have that down there anyway, so I guess I can forgive you this time ;)
