Bioshock in a nutshell.

I just had to pass this one on to you:

 

eeKnight sums up Bioshock in a nice little paragraph:

I’ll certify that Rapture’s self-destruction had nothing to do with political/economic philosophy and everything to do with nutrition.

I’ve played through five major locations now and my poor character has had nothing to eat but potato chips, cream-filled pastries, and “pep” bars — washed down with vodka, gin, whiskey, wine, beer, and a thermos of coffee now and then.

When your entire population is hung-over and constipated you’ve got to expect some amount of civil disorder. They’re deep under the sea, so everyone’s got year-round Seasonal Affective Disorder from lack of sunlight, and I bet that because of the close conditions all the women had their menstrual cycles sync up.

Even Plato’s Republic will end up with blood on the walls under that kind of stress.
