The Golgafrinchan way of life

Description
The Golgafrinchan did what every civilized society dreams off:

They put all telephone sanitizers, account executives, marketing analysts and other people of this useless middle management caste onto one big Ark ship and sent them off to a planet far far away telling them they'd need their service when they arrive with the other ship.
The landing computer broke down during the landing which caused the ship to land in a swamp, not many Golgafrinchans survived it but the few who did, are already organizing their new society in anticipation of the coming workers who will execute their great plans!


Of course they didn't land unprepared, they couldn't save much from the sinking wreck that was their Ark Ship but they could at least save the most important items like the expensive Alpaca Armchairs and even a giant TV that only took two marketing analysts and a telephone sanitizer lives to be rescued.


PS: If you are interested behind the story of this mod, read the Novel "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe", it's a wonderful book from Douglas Adams in the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy series.

You should also arrive with a few corpses. Because in the book lots of them die almost immediately. Plus it would be an emergency food source, in the true spirit of RimWorld.

I saw the Golgafrinchan and thought, Yes, this looks good. Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy = Life
