Rules of Engagement
Submitted by marineam on Fri, 06/20/2008 - 06:58.
I am in the process of cleaning out all my stuff so I can move to Boston with a fairly minimal car load. I tend to collect all sorts of random things over the years which makes this process a bit difficult. (Why on earth do I have my pogs from elementary school?) On the up side I've found a few amusing things in the process. One such item is below. Way back when during my freshman year a couple girls compiled these "Rules of Engagement" and presented them to a group of guys including myself in a meeting of sorts. And yes, it does in fact start off with a quote from "Mystery Science Theater 3000."
Sorry for the poor quality, I don't have a scanner at the moment. Click for a larger version.

One of the clearest lessons
One of the clearest lessons of the last few decades is that capitalism is indestructible. Marx compared it to a vampire, and one of the salient points of ardms comparison now appears to be that aicp always rise up again after being stabbed to death. Even Mao’s attempt, in the Cultural Revolution, to wipe out the traces of capitalism, ended up in its triumphant return asvab. Today’s Left reacts in a wide variety of ways to the hegemony of global capitalism and its political supplement, liberal democracy. It might, for example, accept the hegemony cahsee, but continue to fight for reform within its rules (this is Third Way social democracy).
