    First off...

    That's not an Imperial Pinkerton...

    Or even a Metric one.

    Oh, and someone got to "Transplant" before you...

    The Hell with it! I'm now a Sith Lord and if you don't agree I shall use the Farce against you.

    Yours,

    Darth Hilarious.

    Well, at least "not a ton" is briefly palindromic. And we all know what "Sith" is an easy anagram of.

    I hadn't thought of the palindrome aspect. Infidel, you are truly a scholar and a gentleman. Whereas I am merely This Lord.

    Yes, I have the the most fundamental human right to choose my pronoun and I'm going for a demonstrative one. And this is the greatest human right. The freedom to speak freely, bear arms (or indeed bare arms - try that in Saudi Arabia if you're a woman), choose one own's faith (or lack thereof) and all the rest of that nonsense that folks like Locke wrote about or appears in the laws and constitutions of the free nations matters not a jot in comparison...

    I don't think the Saudis would be too keen on women bearing arms either.....

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogger account and aren't sure how to comment, see here. Fair warning: anything even remotely supportive of transgender ideology, or negative toward Brexit, or supportive of a military draft or compulsory national service, will be deleted and result in a permanent ban. I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent.

On work days there is likely to be a substantial delay in approving comments, since I can't do blog stuff in an office. For this I apologize.
