You know, there's been a lot of craziness on these pages lately, and the primary byproduct I've been noticing is that the Aesopeans have been placed up on some sort of pedestal as the 'best' Tale group.

Now, I don't want to stir anything up - the Aesopeans are a perfectly boring nice group of Tales. Some of my best friends are Aesopeans, I swear!

Don't encourage him!

Make Tale Love, Not Tale War!

This is all incredibly ridiculous. But I have to agree: why does there have to be a 'best' Tale group?

[neigh_sayer]

Precisely! We should all stay safely united in our awesomeness.

A house divided against itself cannot stand!

[thatrapscallion]

That's why us Arabics are all about unity.

[neigh_sayer]

Uh huh. Then what's all this, then?

[thatrapscallion]

Well, unity within our group.

[windmill_tilter]

Absolutely! 'Cuz what better way to apply several lifetimes worth of experience?

[thatrapscallion]

Oh please, Moderns are SO last week!

[takingmemos]

[thatrapscallion]

So Arabics get every second week?

[takingmemos]

[thatrapscallion]

Oh please.

Europeans don't even factor in!

Well, we're not the ones trying to buy affection by offering up our Librarian on the Compendiums, so

Really, what are you trying to prove? That 1001 Nights is full of good stories? We already accept that as true.

What's with the one-upsmanship?

There's too much Aesops love lately. Not enough Arabics love.

There needs to be balance, man!
