Henry Sugar's abilities may make him one in a billion but if he was a cephalopod, he'd be sub average.
I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

The phrase I fear for the future of our nation when looking at Common Carrie is silly. Because it is unlikely Common Carrie, smacking gum on the corner, is going to end up in a position of power for the nation.
We should instead be looking at the elite who are grooming the next generation for those positions they are guaranteed.

It is interesting watching earlier television where cell phones were around but everyone on screen was not yet obsessed with them.

Didn't work on me, still don't cell phone. But since everyone else has got one I can usually get one of them to cell phone for me when needed.
Kinda of the same reason I don't wear a watch, timekeepers are everywhere.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

I wonder how much you get paid for working at an internet troll farm.

It's amazing to me how many people we get on this forum who are completely tone deaf.
Serious topic? Let's throw in a dumbass meme. People's feelings, issues, health concerns be damned. There's a meme somewhere that needs to be posted.
