        You jest, but I honestly always wondered about that… does Xavier only have telepathy and no telekinetic abilities at all? I feel like he should be flying around all Magneto-style (in an upright position, rather than planking like Supes)

    The funny part about this is it legally shows a mens rea of intent to harm. So if your argument for running down protesters is you were in fear of your life, this sticker completely destroys it and gets you put away.

    The metre flows better that way.

    If you can’t stand,
    Feel free to stand
    Behind our troops;
    In front of my ram.

    Why are so many NoSafetySmokingFirst’s found on the backs of oversized pickup trucks?

      Car size is proportional to car owner’s stupidity. The dumber you are, the fancier the idea of mindless communication on the road is for you. And stupid people want their message to be the biggest around, but you can’t do that while writing normally, so, you get what you get.

      At least that’s my theory.

        I think it is more that the appeal of forms of communication where you can exclaim things without having to worry about pesky things like responses increases the dumber the things you want to say are.

    Instructions unclear: I’m a troop who sat down and got rammed by this ram. Now I can no longer stand and got rammed again.

    “[P]atriotism is a word; and one that generally comes to mean either my country, right or wrong, which is infamous, or my country is always right, which is imbecile.” - Patrick O’Brien

        No, the full quote starts off with “But you know as well as I, patriotism…” and I feel the preface dulls the impact of the statement.

        But if you want the full meaning then you should read all of the books over and over again. At least that’s what worked for me.
