No longer has to look for food, safer in mouth of larger creature

Look the point is we should all have tongue isopods that definitely don't tap into your brain and control you, it'll be for the betterment of the human species.

No you aren't supposed to eat them, they help you by having little arms, haven't you always wanted a tongue that has little arms? it can get food out from between your teeth, 5 out of 5 dentists think tongue isopods are simply the best

No, you fool, that's the genius of it! It's Trump loving up the rhyme, because he's an idiot. That's why it works so well. Picture a spontaneous musical number, where all the characters are magically singing in tune, in time and rhyming, and there's one fucko who keeps screwing it up. It's genius.

You don't taste things you've eaten, you taste things that are currently in your mouth. That louse lives in your mouth. "Does it taste good" is a pertinent question.

If anyone doesn't know about this, it's literally what happened in Civilization 1. Gandhi had his aggression set to the lowest possible value. A civilization discovering the necessary technology for nuclear weapons would decrease their aggression rating, to try to simulate the concept that nuclear armed nations don't want to start wars with each other, to avoid mutually assured destruction. So if you decrease what's already the lowest rating, you get integer underflow and suddenly Gandhi becomes a brutal warlord.

Almost.

That was the basic idea but it wasn't nukes that caused it. Gandhi was a total peacenik in the game and those leaders tended to go for democracy. Any civilization that picks democracy has its aggression turned down. That was around the point that nukes started to show up so it wasn't long after Gandhi went democracy that he just declared war on everybody. The aggression number also influenced how the AI would behave in wars. Nukes were to be avoided as they seriously damaged the cities you used them on (better to take them in good condition) and cranked up world pollution, which would cause global warming and gently caress up the terrain.

Each value of AI personality was a byte whose value could be 0 to 255. Generally speaking leaders only had personality ratings between 1 and 10. Gandhi's aggression was 1. Basically he'd only fight people that attacked him and mostly just sat back and kept to himself. However, democracy has a -2 modifier to aggression which then made his aggression wrap around to 255. Even the most aggressive leaders didn't nuke everything in sight. Gandhi's aggression got cranked up so far he turned into a nuke-it-until-it-glows psychopath.

It then became a running gag in Civilization. This hasn't been a technical issue in later games and his AI is generally set to be peaceful but the devs deliberately cranked his "likelihood to use nukes if he gets in a war" AI value absurdly high. So now he's generally pretty peaceful but does, in fact, back his words with nuclear weapons. Lots of them. Connected to a button he'll push at the slightest provocation.

Moral of the story: don't piss off Gandhi.

Gotta nuke something
You must be the nukes you wish to drop on the world.
The weak can never nuke. Nuking is the attribute of the strong.
Belligerence is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in dischord.
A nuke for a rock only ends up making the whole world your servant.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow; drop nukes as if you were to live forever.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you nuke 'em.
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few nukes in the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become radioactive.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the nuking of others.
Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from ballistic MIRV's.
A man is but the product of his thoughts; what he thinks, and who he nukes.

Ah, my mistake. Democracy turns Gandhi into a psycho, not nukes.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
