Still better to sink a tanker than to own one.

Partially here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nero Note the contradictions between his alleged reasons to light up the city and that they’re all based on hearsay and not too convincing while the only fact-based argument states he wasn’t even in town when the fire started.

Fake news. Nero did not burn Rome. Nor was he actually crazy or fanatically prosecuting Christians. Nero was mostly smeared by his successor’s family who also happened to have him assassinated and needed at least nominal justification for their coup d’etat. Not even they caimed, however, that Nero set the city on fire. This urban legend mostly was spread by 1950s Hollywood dramatizations of “history”.

I honestly think it’s some weird plot to take humanity back to a puritanical society.

When would that have been? Humanity never was puritan and it never will be. The UK were and some hicks in their former colonies think they still are but humanity or civilisation are not limited to the area between Texas and Alaska. Actually It has barely arrived there.

I was an owl extinguisher!

I haven’t bought a single TV in my whole life and I haven’t missed anything important. Whenever I am somewhere where there’s a TV and I’ve got nothing better to do or I’m just curious I zap through the channels whithout finding anything remotely interesting or entertaining 99% of the time. I really wonder what people want with these ad-infested, annoying trashcans. Aren’t you dumb enough, yet? Try heavy drinking. Preferrably methanol or break fluid…
