THE MAJORITY REPORT: DECEMBER 22ND, 2015

DRUNK RECENT HISTORY
As seen initially on BlueTube, where the footage was leaked, before all major news networks picked it up:
Cell phone video footage allegedly depicting a barroom brawl between imPorts went viral after it was uploaded to BlueTube last weekend. The video, recorded at The Cantina in Heropa on the night of December 12, begins with a shot of broken glass and a man's voice shouting, "It just exploded! It just [EXPLETIVE] exploded, dude!" The video goes on to depict bottles shattering on shelves behind the bar and general chaos as patrons begin to flee the building. The video fails to capture the faces of the imPorts in question. Witness statements point to the use of some kind of telekinetic power. In addition to glasses and bottles, there was significant damage to the bar's furniture and interior. Police claim no injuries were reported but the suspects are being sought for destruction of property.

HO HO HONESTLY THEY NEED A DRINK LET THEM LIVE
As seen on Lulzfeed and heavily featured within popular Rumblr posts:
A picture depicting two thin, unshaven Santas enjoying beer has gone viral online since earlier this week. Many have manipped the picture to include jokes about SANTA PLEASE DON'T GET DRUNK THIS CHRISTMAS and WHAT MRS. CLAUS DON'T KNOW WON'T HURT HER with a few jabs thrown at various charities most commonly associated with ringing bells at Christmas. A second picture, depicting one of the Santas vomiting in an alley while the other Santa pats his back, has gained the same amount of attention. No one has yet been able to determine who these drunken imposters are, though some claim they must be imPorts. There is a subset of people who are devoted to discovering their identities, as thin Santas are apparently a Christmas wish for them!!

(NOTE: Anyone familiar with Will Graham or Edgar may, after a little squinting, catch onto the charitable culprits.)

DOG'S BEST FRIEND
As seen on BlueTube:
ImPort, zombie survivor AND teenage heartthrob Carl Grimes has made his first post on BlueTube, imploring everyone to consider the responsibilities of adopting a furry friend before taking them home for Christmas, as many of these "gifts" are soon return to shelters not long after adoption.

His fangirls, popularly known as Grimey Gals, furiously support his cause.

CALL IT VISIONARY
As seen on the internet as well as all imPort city newspapers and any television talk covering the matter:
AS PROPHESIED BY THE CLAIRVOYANT --

Now that you've seen the truth of my words, the fires that came to pass, there should be little doubt of the legitimacy of my claims. Unfortunately, once more, I do not come to you bearing good news. An ominous nightmare has been plaguing me for the past several nights.

I've foreseen darkness, so thick and cloying, it swallows everything in its path. Within this darkness, hide and seek becomes dangerous, but getting caught in a game of tag is deadly.

Take great care of yourself during the holiday season, fellow imPorts. For this is the calm before the inevitable storm.

(NOTE: If any players want their specifics foreshadowed by the Clairvoyant, remember to hit up the permissions post!)

DEFINITELY NOT TRUE, DON'T LISTEN
As seen in the 24-hour national news cycle:
Rumors of Lachesis reincarnated as a Russian continue to circulate. An anonymous source in Cyprus claims that he has seen Lachesis himself, and she is much younger than he would think a Fate to be. Another source in Norway contradicts reports of sightings, claiming that Lachesis is not a reincarnated human being, but instead she is a human-looking robot.

GIFT THAT KEEPS REGIFTING
As seen on BlueTube:
Popular video channelists (ages 15 to 35) have made their mark on this season by sending exotic (and sometimes ludicrous) gifts to imPorts. While not all unwanted gifts have been accounted for, a tallied list has been circling Bwitter of people "Port Claiming" imPorts by giving them some "holiday cheer". The up-to-date list is as follows:

XXXSANTOXXX gifted GEORGE O'MALLEY with a George O'Malley ceramic doll.
BAEWATCH gifted KANAYA MARYAM with a set of porcelain forks.
2HOTHOTDAMN gifted BILLY KAPLAN with 2000 black rubber duckies.

WRONG MALE, MAN
Children who have the misfortune of spelling "Santa" as "Satan" will probably have their letters delivered to Lucifer. Stay in school, kids.

CODE SWITCH
The Homeland Security Advisory System has moved from VIOLENT VIOLET to PLUM because in the wake of the recent imPort-related domestic horrors and the chaotic holiday spirit, a couple national newscasters plumb forgot to send their reports through the government censors, thus fostering mass delays. Those newscasters have been sent to reeducation camps.

So... we're not supposed to listen to rumors of Lachesis? Maybe we really should be looking for her.

[She's not even going to comment on the rest, but rest assured, she is popcorn.giffing.]

Whoa, whoa, no need to get drastic, it doesn't need to go to charity.

But uh, if you're looking to offload those to make some quick cash, and you're good at not asking questions... I'm not saying I know a guy, but I'm not not saying that.

worstever: (having positive emotions is so last year)

[So Bumblebee Caboose is terrible at not asking questions. Noted for the future.]

Hey, you don't hear me asking what kind of life you lead that someone thinks a good gift is ten grand in apple currency, do you?
worstever: (the red's decor really sucks)

[personal profile] worstever 2015-12-23 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't help you. It's a mystery to me too. Hoping it's not just the tired state joke.

[It's definitely the tired state joke.

Also wow what's this it's PRIVATE.]

that would be cool. and it's a great concept idea for a comic.
oldstandard: One acquainted with some primal forces of the universe. (He's probably a pikachu.)

yeah yeah totally private not at all shady dealings~

[personal profile] oldstandard 2015-12-23 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Let's see. Assuming most of them are actually in sellable condition and not bruised up like you dropped them down the stairs... and for a batch that big... carry the five... Yeah. Yeah.

You're looking at about seventeen hundred bucks, easy.
worstever: (*stands in one place with gun)

[personal profile] worstever 2015-12-23 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
Jesus. I thought apples were about two bucks a pound.

How much do you want out of the earnings to make this happen?
oldstandard: cover the sins of Neanderthals too? (Does the blood of Jesus)

[personal profile] oldstandard 2015-12-23 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
[There's a slight pause, and then a noise that might've been confusion that quickly turns to consideration.]

I think thirty on my end's fair enough, though if you want to spot me some gas money too I wouldn't turn you down.
