What have you learnt today?

[pat grimshaw]

I found out there's a show called The Maury Povich show.

It is SO Racist!

I've learned that Pat tries really, really, really hard.

 

[pat grimshaw]

I've learned ....

I've learned you've been slacking off. You'll have to hand in your badge.

You're just jealous that Belamo embraced me.

 

[pat grimshaw]

^ Maybe. It won't last, you know. He's a very demanding man.

No correction...4 am Pacific Time. If you think about it at 4 am Pacific Coast time 99% of the rest of the world is fully in daytime at least the major population centres.

OMG who cares about resolution, as long as there is enough resolution to recognize and drool over these two

 

[pat grimshaw]

^ Only a blind man would consider that resolution as satisfactory.

First, I already have something like at least four dioptres in every eye, as far as I can recall right now

And then, only a gaybillie would prefer any HD Ricky Sinz or Zeb Atlas to those two in that resolution... as far as they actually are from my ideal ho

That HJ has a pinhead['s] skull, unlike my own whole, uniformly rainbow(not intended, but you can count it as a pun)-rounded melon shape.

The Star Spangled Banner is the only national anthem in the world that contains references to blood, terror and bombs.

'And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air' [Verse 1, Line 5]

'Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution' [Verse 3, Line 4]

'From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave' [Verse 3, Line 6]

'Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just' [Verse 4, Line 5]

Musa Cerantonio says this is appropriate considering the USA is the largest employer of bombs upon other nations in the world, and the only nation to have ever used an atomic bomb to kill its enemies.

 

[bankside]

Oh I don't know about that. Ours contains a great little subtle bit of theocratic warmongering in French, but with swords instead of bombs:

Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!

"As your arm deftly carries the sword, so too it carries the cross..."

Your problem is with violence or merely with bombs? do you have in mind La Marselleise?

It may be a republican, revolutionary thing, the stepping stone of all bigger, developed Western nations... except for the British, who, until about forty years ago, had been more sedate, wiser.

Kinda hints at the difference in when they were written?
