Yeah, famously, the US doesn’t oppress minorities because of all the guns.

He’s a less likable version of Rimmer.

Mediocre executives loathe it with every fibre of their being.

So, I get what you mean, but for me, it’s this kind of fluff that helps make it feel like a community, rather than a curated RSS feed.
