Sounds more Socrates than Shakespeare, his would be more like "Tolerance will reach such heights that are only tolerable for intelligent beings so nary an imbecile be found."

Then there'd probably be a witch, a clown and a guy that should know better probably impaling himself on his own sword whilst jumping from a castle cause "I wanted booty and got a bit ahead of myself".

He's quoted it as Dostoyevski. I don't think he ever said that though.

Given he's Russian, fair call that it probably wasn't in English.

Correct. He did however say “Girl you're hot and cold. That makes you warm.”

What about "To the window, to the wall, till the sweat drop down my balls"?

No thinking takes place here. The place is flooded with emotional boomers, fart videos and concern over Hawthorn beating us this weekend.

Real saints fans aren’t concerned about the hawks beating us. Real saints fans are expecting it to happen and have embraced our fate.

How stupid would a cop be to taser a 95 year old woman.

What's his defence going to be?

At least I didn't shoot her?

The real cost of membership is the $50 I slip on our opponents every week just so that I can watch with some semblance of calm.

Admittedly, I just wanted an excuse to link to the Propellerheads.

Okay.
Given her passing.
This is a true story about Tina Turner.
In 1990, I am in the corporate world and on my first visit to Europe.
I am staying in Frankfurt at some up market hotel.
This hotel is surrounded by gardens and, for whatever fortuitous reasons, it is afternoon and I am wandering through them.
Walking toward me from the opposite direction are three people: older woman, younger woman and youngster.
The older woman is clearly Tina Turner.
I go into star shock, thinking of what witty comment I might make with this superstar.
I settle on: “You have a very lovely child “.
To which Tina replied: “Oh honey, you’re so sweet but this is my grandchild.”

Vale Tina.

I’m 36 but have an undying love for Tina.

I’m a rugby league man and the “simply the best” promo remains one of the all time great sports promos ever made. I still think of it when I think of the NRL.

Goldeneye is the Bond movie that defines Bond to me and her theme is absolutely epic.

She did both those things in her 50s, incredible life, incredible entertainer.

My thought it, what are you driving that you hit a pedestrian with enough force in a parking lot from a standing start? 0-60 in 2.5 seconds after you shift gear to go forward and the car doesn't crumble like paper or spin itself out almost immediately at any sense of torque?

Most sportscars can go 0-100 in 4ish seconds no issue, supercars are pushing the limits of 3, electric 2

So, you're a yank, that means big truck or SUV type, you're also at an Applebees so low socioeconomic generally, standing start from parking space I can't see any of them immediately planting to do that sort of speed. I can see them dicking around with bags and such, having a bit of a feed, mounting curbs and not exactly using the road properly home.

If it was Wendys they probably left the drink on the roof as well.

No even at the best of times he doesn't make much sense.

A life of Sunbury Dominos pizzas will do that to a man. Sad deterioration.

Ahhhhh Yeah
