I don't want Charles on the back of all my coins and on my $20s.

Could be worse. Could be Camilla on the money. A very sad day for our British cousins. Stiff upper-lip and all that across the Pond.  :'(

Mixed to failing grades, hmm...that is pretty crappy. I thought regular folk liked him for dipping his wick constantly.

And I forgot about the new PM!

I see Elizabeth held on just long enough for Boris not to be the one to speak at her funeral.

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

And she and Paddington Bear were best Buds.  O0  I used to be friends with Barney the Dinosaur. But he skipped-out on me one night sticking me with his bar tab. Bastard.  >:(

Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

^ Well, if we have to go back to being colonials again at least it'll be big English breakfasts instead of running out the door with a company-logo travel mug and grabbing a breakfast burrito at the truck-stop drive thru on the way.
