I see Horace is teetering on the brink....

I hope someday to have the courage to never take a side and sneer at everything just like you, phibes.

Yeah, you only sneer at folks who quote history or travel. It's important to take a stand when you finally find something to believe in, even it is Donald Trump.

If I think something, there's generally a specific reason that I'm willing to defend specifically.

And if you don't like or understand something, you sneer?

There's lots of things I don't like that I don't sneer at. Even more that I don't understand. The history quoting and travel thing are long considered and observed by me, so I'll sneer a bit. To the extent they go towards people's ideas of heirarchies, which we all must participate in. Mostly of course it's just idle thoughts, posted idly.

And yet you claim that I sneer at everything.

You do. I'm surprised you're even arguing the point.

[Doctor Phibes]

There's a difference between sneering and poking fun. I'm genuinely disappointed if this doesn't come across in what I post.

@doctor-phibes it’s very British humor.

In England we call it taking the piss.

Fucking yanks (j/k)

Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn't. But it's you, and that's ok. Sometimes I'm a nice guy. Sometimes I'm an asshole. That's me. And that's ok. We all get to take a piss sometimes. Most of us walk away still friends.... And then there's Andy.....

The most unfortunate thing really is that they're crapping up the word "patriot."

Samuel Johnson got it right.

Fortunately we can rely on patriotism from the military.

Seriously? Pertinent? Jesus. Who the asked for martial law? Twitter fellatio.

Supposedly Flynn.

He retweeted this:

[jon-nyc]

It’s worse than that, George.

He went on Newsmax and did an interview playing it down like something not particularly out of the ordinary. Apparently we’ve declared martial law some 64 times in our history.

[jon-nyc]

But to your question, Loki the Secretary of the Army felt it necessary to make that statement. That’s not some twitter rando.
