I am not sure about being a prophet or a pharaoh but Raphael said it was nice being a puppet.
That was for you Mr. C.

14How old must one be before one is no longer just a minor prophet?
Chicagoboy, of the second generation of the hobby board, prophesied also about them when he said, "Two Rules of Holes

#1 – If you find yourself in one, stop digging.
#2 – If you are unable to obey #1, at least try not to shovel the muck onto your own head. Originally Posted by dearhunter

It got me thinking: is it better to be a pharaoh or a prophet? At first, one seems to be better off as a pharaoh; you're the top dog in the whole country for at least 25 years with an option to extend it for another 25 if you pass a physical in front of all priests (if not they kill you on the spot, but that's another story for another time). You don't take shit from no one, you get to fuck all the slave woman, and you're a living demigod. On the other hand, if you're a prophet, sun will eventually shine on your ass; the question is what will happen until that moment? Some prophets did OK, like Moses; he did some great shit like exact revenge on his enemy with 10 plagues, but then had to wander around in the desert for quite some time before reaching the promised land. Some did great, like Mohammed, who farted around for 40 years then saw the light, kicked ass and took notes (GWB II, anyone?). But some were really shit out of luck like Jesus, who was a carpeneter, lived with his mom and died a virgin on a cross. About the only sure thing that you can expect from being a prophet is that mothers for generations to come will name their firstborns after you.Rare that a post requires or heaven forbid demands thought, but this one had me thinking all day. It's every bit as sage as the f'ing Prophet's post and the fiery words of Ezekiel 25:17 seen though the eyes of a stone killer looking for some redemption.
So which one would you rather be? A pharaoh or a prophet? Originally Posted by obiwansalami
