Let's be honest; everyone would be happier if Nixon resolved the Vietnam War with cards instead of bombs.

I maintain that the members of any governing body (or at least the US legislature) should be divided up into 40-man groups (evenly divided between parties) and forced to work together to take down a WoW Classic boss before taking office. If they can't cooperate well enough to defeat Ragnaros the Firelord, then what chance do they have of collectively drafting economic regulation?
(Any congressfolks left over after the 40-man groups are allocated are grudgingly allowed to bypass the filter, but they are encouraged to run a 5-man instances in various configurations.)
On-topic: X-Men Apocalypse. Might makes Right is wrong...except our conflict is resolved by having an even more powerful mutant crush the might-makes-right advocate single-handedly.

Sexually harassing underage girls is the coolest thing ever, especially if you're chugging a bud lite while driving a BMV and listening to Kanye West on your Sony AAAA sound system.Captain Crimson wrote: ↑Mon Apr 20, 2020 2:49 pm Bayformers: Peeing on bad guys is okay, and so is farting if you're really, really old.
The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us. And our lives slip away moment by moment lost in that vast, terrible in-between.

Stop making me agree with you, you horrible wanker!clearspira wrote: ↑Mon Apr 20, 2020 11:59 am Harry Potter:
You can abuse your students for 7 years, up to and including making them cry, but as long as you were doing it in the name of a cause, the main target of your bullying will forgive you to the point he will name his son after you. Yes, i hate Snape.
Also, love (read: rape, read: magic roofie) potions are hilarious and using them will not get you in trouble as long as no one takes it as far as Voldemort's mum and it is a girl using them. Even if the Head Girl has foreknowledge that one of Harry's fangirls spiked some cakes that eventually ended up in the mouth of your future husband nothing will happen.
Also, permenantly scarring a girl with acne that reads "Sneak" is both hilarious and justified because she... tattled on an illegal dueling club.
