For most people of character and intelligence, the answer is obvious:
SWORDS.
Swords are totally sweet. Let me break it down for you:
- Swords don't need to be reloaded. Swords don't run out of ammo.
- Swords look awesome, and you look awesome using them.
- Swords don't need a silencer - they are the silencer.
- A guy that chooses to use a sword in an age of guns is clearly someone you don't want to fight.
- Swords can remove heads (and other limbs) with style.
- Swords have a history, harking back thousands of years.
- Swords are precision instruments - innocent bystanders are rarely killed when a swordfight breaks out.
- Swords, unlike most guns, are excellent medium-close-range weapons.
Then there's guns.
- They're lame. And also loud.
Think about it - how many totally sweet gunfights have you seen in movies? Outside of Equilibrium, not many. How many totally sweet swordfights have you seen? A crapload.
What's the first weapon every boy forges from his surroundings? That's right - pick up a stick, and it's a sword. See? It's instinct. It's in our blood.
Swords are awesome.
I'm going to try and post some course listings and a bookstore-front thing in the next few days. Stay tuned - the you you always wished you were awaits!
