On the day of final Judgment, Republicans will be redeemed

I am speaking, of course, of the final Judgment of

THE INQUISITOR!

Note: This thread inspired by the following thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4290758

If you haven't seen the Red Dwarf episode, you'll need to see it before calling me a freeper.

:hi:

Ok, ok I'll explain. Each person is judged, not by the Inquisitor, but by themselves. In the episode, the two worst characters get to live on, because "By their own low standards they have acquitted themselves" and the two best characters are 'deleted' from history "Because you have failed to achieve that which you could so easily have become".

Make sense now?

1. The two worst characters?

Smeg.

Although I will say I developed a profound dislike of Rimmer in the last couple of seasons of the show. (And wound up liking Cat slightly more.)

3. Sorry, didn't quite mean it that way...

but I had to oversimplify for those who had never seen the series.

Guess I'm going to have to catch up!

edit: I have a friend that named his fishing boat the SS Smegma.

4. Oh, my friend. I've seen 'em all many times.

If you haven't seen the Inquisitor, PM me. I think I may be able to send you a vcr tape...
