Hexnet Falls Flat in Singing Contest
Last night, in the finals of popular reality TV contest Lazarusvision, the Hexnetian representative lost, despite giving what almost all critics in Hexnet have declared to be a superior performance. The enraged masses have inexplicably decided that the best course of action is to storm your office to voice their complaints.
I’ve encountered with 5 choice
1. “It was rigged!” chants real housewife of Hexburg, Palutena Turnbull Karsprintian, who is so angered that she is speaking at a pace you’re having trouble keeping up with. “Half the judges looked to be Maxtopian to me, and you know what those people think of us and our culture. The contest must be rerun, this time with more unbiased judges from Hexnet. If the rest of Lazarus doesn’t agree, threaten trade sanctions, heck, maybe even outright war. Our national pride depends on this!”
2. “Clearly, the rest of Lazarus are just uncultured idiots!” crescendoes Giuseppe Clarke, who was recently voted the country’s most-eligible bachelor. “If they can’t appreciate us, who needs them? The government should sponsor its own patriotic song contest! Call it Hexnetian Idol, only let native-born Hexnetians compete, and let Hexnetians vote for a winner. A song for the people, by the people, to the people, from the people. Or something.”
3. “For sure, everyone knows that Lazarusvision always has every nation giving top marks to their favourite historic allies,” intones reality show survivor Geoff Probes. “Maybe instead you should be asking why other nations don’t feel inclined to treat Hexnet that way. Maybe you should be investing more in diplomacy, in mutual-backscratching, in favorable trade deals traded for agreeable song contest votes. This is how the world works, and we should be learning to play nice with our neighbors.”
4. “If you ask me, these low-brow shows are making your average Hexnetian no smarter than a 5th-grader,” croons your apprentice, after finally clearing the rabble from your office. “If only more shows on TV were serious, like 60 Clock-ticks, or informative, like Will Zeke the Science Geek, then television could actually help create a smarter, more refined populace.”
5. Dismiss the issue
