Congrats. Indeed, getting a marriage-that's-not-called-marriage now only means that if you get a chance to upgrade, you can throw a big party all over again and maybe some of your friends will feel like they have to give you gifts again, sounds like a win-win all around.


Thanks. :)

The problem is, that merely puts you on the same footing as every Irish male. Hoodies are the default position. The hoodieless are at a disadvantage.

Considering the last time I tried to take an analogy seriously and make it a P2TM RP, it flopped because I forgot about it....

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

True. Using that one runs the risk of becoming "the stupid foreigner" though.

I've managed to pull a semi-convincing Irish accent once. Really, having more than one is always a plus.
