Agiel Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 @Raithe An English friend who has emigrated here has relayed to me that he has grown the urge to stick a letter-opener into the temple of every person he sees that has a shirt with some variation of: "Keep Calm..." on it. Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling

ManifestedISO Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 Love that Jaime's 30-minute meal cooking show, even though I don't cook a damn thing, and for damn sure don't have an herb garden. Theme song strangely mesmerizing, too. Very often, I also say 'excuse me', when what I really mean, is, exactly what #29 says. GTFOOTW! All Stop. On Screen.

Malcador Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 I like #10 in that list, about track pants being expensive due to chavs. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

She carried it off incredibly well, both the look and the singing. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
