"There was this assistant principle back when I was a high school student. I swear that she walked around during lunch just looking for excuses to put students in detention. She accused one of my friends of being high all the time. And she called his parents and said that she thought that he was selling pot to the other students. Never mind he wasn't high that day, he was just tired because he stayed up late doing his fucking homework like he was fucking supposed to. And never mind all the other times he was high and she never noticed. And now it's her fault that that his parents searched his room and his computer and got rid of all his porn and sent him to fucking counseling.

You kids have it so easy with your fucking free streaming sites. Do you have any idea how hard it was to get obscure fetish porn, especially when you're underage?"

“[…] There is a widespread tolerance to infanticide and abortion. The local qadi easily brushed off charges of child-murder and presided over the funeral of dead toddlers without any question, although he denied any instances of injustice on his part. Rumors abound that some corpses are ritually crushed and sowed around the farmlands owned by the qadi to fertilize their soil. It is said that such casual disregard of the children’s life is rife throughout the realm, up to the secluded quarters of the Imperial Harem in the Garden of Abode. Here children are treated like domesticated animals—they are nourished, freed from menial labor, their future determined and prepared accordingly, and might be disposed whenever the elders see fit. They carry little social obligations, however it is incidentally also a rule of thumb in Darussalam that those with little obligations correspondingly receive little rights.

"It is not proper, to claim that you have any such right, as to dictate to one individual or another, what they may or may not do within their own person, regarding their own person, or to their own person. The very suggestion of such a thing is tyranny at its finest, to claim you have some exclusive right to demand others act a certain way, even dictators are above you." - King Charles IV

"Oh, I told the Americans a bunch of stuff I shouldn't have about the government. I was in France doing... Erm... 'stuff', when the Soviet Union collapsed, but as it turned out, the Federation had something against me and wanted me dead. And the frogs were going to give me up, too, so that's cool.

"Gravy isn't a part of Spaniard cuisine. How did it happen here? In sandwiches and in meat?

Supposedly, after the thorough interrogation of captured British pirates. Though the Palmerans did spend about 8 or more generations living off rations and what they could find; so eel pie and pound cake with seagull eggs are considered decent and complete meals, a real treat would be a few vegetables and one meat component cooked in a clay pot with whatever else was around. And they're not exclusively British, the eel pie at least...what's so bad about eel though? I can't find any reason not to eat it."

"The answer to the moral challenge of the failures of colonialism is supposed to be to learn humility and respect for diversity and human sovereignty. You aren't supposed to say 'yes, previously our government was exploitative and failed to live up to its professed ideals of spreading what we consider civilization, so we've decided to go back and do it properly this time'. Have you people learned nothing?"
