Meaning of culture

Well, I had a really interesting discussion with Jezzie about culture and the sorts of cultural events that we can organise on New Hope. Having really agreed pretty quickly that nationalism isn't really what we are about, we're looking at ideas such as:

  • Meaningful events such as Remembrance Sunday (my suggestion) as this is both international and current
  • Quirky things such as Guy Fawkes Night, which is really rather bad taste if you think about it
  • Festivals to explore cultures like the Aztecs

Jezzie's feeling is that culture is about what we eat, how we live, daily life and so forth. If you include arts and crafts, I really couldn't agree more.

On a slightly less serious note, bizarreness on Cichlid.

Having been harrassed by a moronic griefer, who has now been both banned from Cichlid and reported. I met the brother of said griefer the following day! He came to say that he was really impressed with the way that we responded to the incident, and apparently the attacker is alledgedly 11 years old. Certainly behaved like an 11 year old, I must say.

This elder brother appeared as I was talking to a random German from Berlin via Babbler and a tiny furry from California. Only in SL. :)
