Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
I think most people would picture officers being held at gunpoint etc, rather than just walking off base.
Hmm you’re probably right.
The mutiny on the Bounty is probably the most well known example, and they had it all. Tying up the captain, officers forced into a boat at gunpoint and cast off, stealing the ship, kidnapping women, you name it.
That’s a lot like how when pirates attack a ship there are always a few confused people picturing parrots and peg legs instead of speedboats and semiautomatics.
