So... uh. I have a pretty easy job, but I'd like to get a little help If I can... They said I'm a figurine of our great leader, and I have to make 12 slogans by--uh--Thursday! Could any of you help me come up with a few? So far I have "There is no greater comrade to the hammer than the sickle" and... "Russia is a home for the free worker and land

Well they have me actin' in propaganda movies, an' the script is pretty much tha same over 'n' over. Just, like, mix up tha same words ta make new phrases! Like, "glorious", "proud", "workers", "capitalist pig", "motherland", an' somethin' about how delicious and prolific our supply or food is.

[Give him a minute, he's writing all this down. And he leans back a little to hear the phone better.]

You're an actor...? I didn't know they were making movies.

[freakinblur]

Yeah, I kinda won the shitty job lottery! Been pretty easy compared ta what some other people got. The hours are long an' the film crew is a buncha jerks, but whatever. I figure I can ride this out.

Yeah, that's sounds pretty good! Some people have to do things like find yaks. Do we even have yaks??

[0n_a_yo_yo]

... I guess that's a decent slogan for 1950's Russia.

[on_a_yoyo]

... are you all right?

[motheringnation]

I th..think I can remember some if you would like.

[Lived through it already....]

[on_a_yoyo]

Really? Aw thanks, that'd be great.

[motheringnation]

Y...you're welcome...

Ah....[trying to think back and translate them]

"Working men of all countries, unite"

"The only church that enlightens us is the church that burns"

....er..

"All power to the Soviets"

[on_a_yoyo]

Wow, those are all really good--I'll take 'em, thanks!

[Froooown. This job sucks. He doesn't like the whole 'helping the town spirit' thing at all.]

[rlynotapervert]

"We love the Russia?"

[on_a_yoyo]

... That might be a little too simple, but I'll write it down anyway.

[rlynotapervert]

That always worked for the Hamachaya.

[on_a_yoyo]

For who now?

[rogue_pineapple]

I could shave your head?

[on_a_yoyo]

...Uh, I don't have any hair, sorry.

[rogue_pineapple]

Then what do you have?

[on_a_yoyo]

Uhhh... plastic.
