Repeal "Max Barry Day"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #223
Proposed by: Omigodtheykilledkenny
Description: UN Resolution #223: Max Barry Day (Category: Education and Creativity; Area of Effect: Educational) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: These here fine United Nations,
Commending Resolution #223's laudable purpose, to recognize truly great men and their achievements;
Duly congratulating this resolution's intended honoree on his many titles from coed beauty pageants throughout the NS world;
Expressing its concern, however, that this resolution breaches the reasonable limits to which this body has traditionally held itself;
Chagrined that amidst the many serious problems the world faces today, including war, terrorism, poverty, oppression, corruption, pestilence, disease, famine, malnourishment, starvation, taxes, illiteracy, substandard education, substandard sex education, imperial measurements, necrophilia, space junk, nations not labeling chemicals correctly, shortages of computers for schoolchildren, invisible tree people, shortages of computers for invisible tree schoolchildren, rampant ecclesiastical self-defenestration, and reluctance to eradicate the Arctocephalinae, the United Nations would actually pass a resolution declaring an international holiday for some dude who started a Website suggests that this institution's priorities are somewhat out of whack;
Randomly kicking ambassadors in the nuts for even thinking this proposal was a good idea,
Hereby repeals Resolution #223: Max Barry Day.

As humourous as this repeal is, I just don't support it. |

It looks like this could be a close run thing. Current voting stands at 713-709. |

I wish more people would realize this is a *GAME* - maybe go outside and do something useful... finish homework (I'm guessing most everyone on NS either has been at some point, or is currently in high school or college)... attend a public meeting... consider getting a life. |

As do I, along with most of AO. With a 2-5-0 majority, we have decided to vote AGAINST this repeal. Unfortunately, it's no longer a close run thing as the Ayes are outnumbering the Nays by 2 to 1, so.... no Max Barry day for us  (unless we feel so strongly about this we decide to hold our own).
