edit: You wouldn't believe the number of papers I've graded that had that as the end of their papers. Like, more than five.

No, the prompt isn't bad. It's the insincere 150 papers I have to grade. Some of them feel like they pulled it right from Smokey the Bear. "Only you can stop bullying!"
should've made it
'what have you learned from video games'

That-... not bad, actually. Well, I could see some of them not being able to write anything. I could have included online social network sites, though.
Make them play a game as homework and then write an essay on it >.> Give them some RPG they can play on the computer and give them a week or two to complete it and then write what they've learned from it

The borg would be a terrible example as they never progress further than that which they can assimilate... they lack any kind of creativity or culture... they do not advance in tech other than to assimilate and incorporate what another civilization has already developed... It's possible you could argue that they use a small portion of that tech more efficiently but even then... in the end they always lose because they lack humanity... they lack the capability to think outside the box and reason... not to mention they destroy,assimilate and enslave anything they come into contact with... yes something to strive for...
but ultimately as I stated they create nothing themselves... they advance only on the backs of others... the borg are parasites...
but ultimately as I stated they create nothing themselves... they advance only on the backs of others... the borg are parasites...
I didn't say we should strive to be more like anything so don't even start Flavin. Individuality and imagination are very special traits, it was just an example of efficiency without any distractions. Oh and risking sounding like a Trekkie, the Borg Queen effectively controlled the drones and displayed individuality, creativity and emotion.
Sagi is the Borg Queen

Sagi is the Borg Queen
How did you know my secret Drac D:!
YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED DRAC.
So...if Sagi is the Borg Queen. And Borg's are parasites that assimilate others... then...does that mean sagi wants to assimilate the rest of RT into his subligar parasitic world?

I should assimilate Magnuss and his technology into the subligar collective, then all my drones will develop janitorial skills.

You take that back! Oregon Trail had the most compelling and emotional story I've ever known.
WHY TIMMY?! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE OF DYSENTERY?!

Borgs don't play Oregon trail... They play Star Wars: Old Republic!

Meh I only meant the efficiency of creatures that are not inhibited in there ability to perform by emotions, that all perform to one single purpose. There would be no war, no conflict, no need for tribunals or councils, just progression with nothing to halt it.
The borg is a terrible example of that as they only progressed through war and destruction... that and they never produced anything themselves...
As for the queen she did portray somewhat of an individual nature... the queen of the hive to give directive and maintain...
