Forget a mortal's 9 months of pain, now for barfing a 6' tall flying figure -mazel tov!
Oh wait.. you're talking about Greek Philosophy?... Ooops.

Well, we'll just boil it down to this.
  • Socrates was a legend, but thought books were stupid -despite being an educator.
  • Aristotle was a stupid person who led the world to believe it was flat for thousands of years to come. Leading to countless actually smart people being treated like the flat earthers of today.
  • Everything Spartans believed in was stupid
  • Athenians were full of themselves, which their writings proved
  • True democracy always fails
  • By voting with stones, someone who dissented against the majority effectively was asking to be stoned. (okay, so maybe no history books mention this. But this had to have happened at least once right)
  • "I know he would not be a wolf/but that he sees the Romans are but sheep." (oh wait? Thats Rome? Eh, whats the difference)
  • The masses have the intelligence and mannerisms of sheep.
  • Having independant city states was a stupid idea
  • Again, Aristotle, no the galaxy does not revolve around you -let alone us. Sorry not sorry.
Thus concludes, history, english, civics and whatever with Mr. NKCM you may now voice the numerous "flaws" in my lesson which are clearly non-apparent as it is 100% accurate, and everyone deep deep inside knows such. Such thoughts and baseless complaints can be directed towards Kipper from here-on as she takes the role of the impromptu principal.

That'll be all

                      You had me believing it all until you typed principle instead of principal. Now I see it's a bunch of trumped up fables. Sorry not sorry.

                      thank you, Professor; may we please have another?


                      errrrrrrr ... on second thought, maybe that's not such a good idea ... y'know, the "be careful what you ask for, since you may actually get it" premise ...

                      this cartoon dates from probably 1989, but it's still really telling

                      I was in Atlanta Terminal B SC last week and had hot cheese pasta while I was there. They also had Indian food available and a tablet which spelled out the menu and nutrition ratings for all food.

                      The club was MASSIVE and seemed brand new. It was on par with LAX or JFK as far as I'm concerned.

                      How ironic.

                      There is that infamous photograph I took of you sleeping...

                      ask me tomorrow morning when I'm waiting to board the 0550 BWI-DTW

                      I'm still noodling on whether to call and ask about SDCing to leave from DCA (yeah, I know, I'm just a PM, and realistically it doesn't change my wakeup or Uber/taxi pickup by more than 30-40 min; it just cuts the Amtrak and the terminal shuttle bus out of the transportation loop)

                      You can't get much more authoritative than that!
