Globalization is the inter-dependence of nations on one anothers' goods, resulting in a global economy. One may argue that such has occurred since civilization began, with the thing we know as commerce, but that is more wrong than right.
There are perks of globalization, such as:
- The ability to travel internationally easier.
- A wide variety of goods, differing in quality and price dramatically.
- Forced peace between inter-dependent nations, which results in less war.
- More universal measurement, arithmetic, and language, making it easier for people to communicate internationally.
Of course, globalization has serious draw-backs, too:
- If one economy declines, the rest do, too. This is much like a farmer using one variant of one crop, which will result in the destruction of most of his crop, if a bad disease hits.
- If a universal currency is not used, some, smaller nations will have disadvantages in trade.
- If one nation so chooses to withdraw from the global economy, the entire thing could collapse.
- Those countries that offer less valuable products than others will get fucked over.
- The richer nations profit more than the smaller ones.

A sexual position common in Minnesota. When you are in a walk-in fridge with a girl and are about to bang, you put her legs up over your shoulders (replicating field goal posts), call an audible and start jerking off until blasting through her legs and on to her face. At the point of impact you smack her in the face with a dead salmon and either yell "he splits the uprights!" or "field goal!". Traditionally done while wearing a Vikings helmet.
Sven: Hi there, can I get some banana peppers on my turkey club?
Shantrelle: Uh, yea, you see I can't get that for you right now. You see, we is all out of them up here and I can't get into the walk-in fridge cause Lars is in there about to kick a Norwegian Field Goal all over Monique's face.

Get the Global Hoe mug.Free to play MMOTPS with some mild RPG elements. Features single player content to level 15 or so, then requires you to team up with other players to progress beyond that point. There is PvE in the form of 4-man missions that consist of fighting your way to a boss and defeating it; and goal oriented PvP including modes similar to capture the flag (in this case, a robot you must get inside and drive to your spawn without getting destroyed), capture/hold control points, and payload, which is similar to control point but the point slowly moves along a track.
There are 4 classes, Assault (Heavy DPS/Tank), Recon (Stealth and Ranged DPS), Robotics (Pet DPS and Support) and Medic (Healing and light/moderate Poison DPS). These classes can be improved with skill points, earned every other level (to a max of 13), which are placed in one of the three skill-trees available to your class.
As of July 2011 the level cap is 50, but as with any MMOG, that can change later. Supports standard WADS + Mouse control scheme as well as controllers (although menus require mouse control).
Available through Steam for free, also as a stand alone download from the developer's website.
