Even if you live by the most accident prone major airport in the world, a plane crashing into your house or hitting you is far far down the list of probable dangers to your personal wellbeing.
If you're 15 and you're not in education or an apprenticeship/training of some kind, the state has failed you.
The general public has been poisoned against any form of intellectualism, and have no interest in factual information.
I mean, they're huge, they're some of the oldest human built structures in the world and they look good on a postcard.
If the Egypt thing was a myth, then how did the Nazis find the ark of the covenant in an Egyptian ruin? (And why were there so many snakes?)

Uncritical support for their national liberation!
The Cornish languages speakers can take turns having each government job, though some of them will need to double up since there aren't enough to fill every office otherwise.
I feel like if you're going to eat meat, you should be up for at least trying dog meat. Otherwise how can you justify your dietary habits? What makes dogs special?
