Vox Popoli: WND column

David of One November 18, 2012 6:14 PM: If I think about this a bit ... this doesn't happen very often. Is this the first time?
Mr Green Man November 18, 2012 6:27 PM: That last one was more than enough to chew on, anyway.
Anonymous November 18, 2012 6:36 PM: That's none of your fucking business David
VD November 18, 2012 6:44 PM: Relax, Anonymous. No, it's not the first time, hence the warning. But with a book and two game designs all due at about the same time, it's just been a bit too much. Glad the Vikes were on bye week....
Nicholas November 18, 2012 6:58 PM: I vote for a repeat of "Spiting Their Pretty Faces". That was one of my favorite pieces.
Mr. Nightstick November 18, 2012 7:15 PM: It's always funny how the ilk get so concerned when Vox goes radio silent.
harry12 November 18, 2012 7:21 PM: .
I'm amazed at the amount of things Vox does read and write and just plain does. AND play football!

Vox, you'd make one hell of a politician.

Anonymaus November 18, 2012 7:53 PM: No, it's not the first time, hence the warning.

This makes no sense.
Mr Green Man November 18, 2012 7:57 PM: It's always funny how the ilk get so concerned when Vox goes radio silent.

Well, it's good to know who has been taken to the camps.
realmatt November 18, 2012 8:02 PM: How is your father doing, Vox? Off topic but I was reading about Wesley Snipes and it popped into my head.
Daniel November 18, 2012 8:06 PM: Vox, you'd make one hell of a politician.

No. He'd have to give up reading and writing, and all his games would have to have bugs built into them on purpose.
A Visitor November 18, 2012 8:28 PM: What happened to Wesley Snipes? Hope your dad's ok Vox!
JartStar November 18, 2012 8:40 PM: The idea of the idol rich is mostly a myth. Studies have shown as people increase their income and savings they actually work more in an effort to keep what they have acquired.
Azimus November 18, 2012 9:03 PM: Vox as a politician? Please. He'd be one h#ll of a warlord though.... what with the flaming sword already ready to go and all.

His army of bellicose middle-aged white male would-be revolutionaries? Well, I'd pay good money NOT to see that...
stg58 November 18, 2012 9:24 PM: Projection is a stinky cologne, Azimus. We can more than handle ourselves.
stg58 November 18, 2012 9:24 PM: 9 year USMC veteran. I ain't the only one here.
Kickass November 18, 2012 9:39 PM: I just assumed He was heading off to professionally fake rape someone again.

Ah well, nothing so exciting. At least that is what he leads us to believe.....
Anonymaus November 18, 2012 10:44 PM: I know a fat USMC vet I wouldn't ever bet on in a fight. Don't mean a thing.
aero November 18, 2012 11:15 PM: As my mind wonders why Vox Day did not write a column. Can I buy the excuse he was too busy. Or is there some other reason?
Did the Editors at WND say no to it or did it come from an even higher authority?
It must have been very profound and logical column. A column so will written that even any MPAI would be able to understand it. A mind altering column the would spark a revolution.
Did the FBI intercept it? Are they preventing VD from publishing it here on his blog?
I must get a copy!
daddynichol November 18, 2012 11:20 PM: Not writing the required column will be a mark on his permanent record!
aero November 18, 2012 11:20 PM: To get the latest update on why they pulled VDs column go to infowars
Kyle In Japan November 19, 2012 1:02 AM: Well, I'd rather have the new book than another article on economics, so I'll live.

This seems as good a place as any to ask: what's the magic like in Throne Of Bones? Is it flexible and barely explained aka Tolkien, detailed and rule-based like Sanderson, or somewhere in between the two extremes? I'm quite smitten with elaborate, interesting magic/powers in fiction.
Krul November 19, 2012 2:17 AM: I hope this means I'll get to read A Throne of Bones soon. I certainly hope there's a nook version.
Kickass November 19, 2012 8:27 AM: Anon, that would be a foolish assumption to make. But you go ahead and do it.
Susan November 19, 2012 8:35 AM: VD since some of the newer reader/lurkers may not be familiar with your writings, times like this might be a good time for WND to run one of your older columns. A lot of your stuff from years ago has been strangly on target recently.

Your writings are interesting enough that I for one would not mind reruns.
Azimus November 19, 2012 8:44 AM: @ stg -

I've been around here long enough to know there are some guys who've laid it all on the line for their country. It was more an attempt at humor and not wanting to see a bunch of pasty, doughy men in "What's in Your Wallet?" garb following VD's flaming sword into battle.
Cheddar,man November 19, 2012 9:23 AM: God speed, good Sir!

The Alter-Clay November 19, 2012 10:07 AM: So is this our miscellaneous fart column for the day?

The idea of the idol rich is mostly a myth.

Absolutely. They aren't worshiped. They just laze around.
