whenever i try things like this i end up saying things that only make sense to myself, and it comes across and condescending and without social understanding. I said recently we need more "Eisen und Blut", in an english conversation, and failed to elaborate, and that was a mistake. I'd say stick to the Bard or do something like >>19123927
which is still funny even though I don't get the reference.
