Marvellous. I'm reminded of the great Adlai Stevenson quote:

Quote:I don't want to appeal to intelligent voters. I need a majority, goddammit!
I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty. I must not be nasty.

Worst defence of Theism? How about: "Would You Drink Your Dad's Sperm"? The original video is YouTube infamy. I shall link to The Quran Reloaded commentary on it:

ATTENTION, ATTENTION:  VORLON HAS BEEN SHOCKED. 

I REPEAT:  VORLON HAS ACTUALLY BEEN SHOCKED.

DO NOT ADJUST YOUR SETS.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

PLEASE PROCEED TO THE NEAREST EXIT.

REMAIN CALM.

ACT IMMEDIATELY.

TELL NO-ONE.

Should we evacuate the forum or something ??

Probably should do something, but this is just as novel an experience for me as the rest of you.

That's historically the best way to check for sharks before the men get in the water.

That's why I specified lifeboats.  The guys can play with the sharks.

In the event of an emergency, we evacuate the women and children first so the men can think about a solution in silence. Naughty
