<p>Why do you know so much about the Irish and the English?</p>
<p>Really? You’re going to argue the subtle differences between ‘vs.’ and ‘v.’? What’s the point? I think you are incredibly pretentious like Fallen Angel said.</p>
<p>
I study history. Ireland is one of my favorite historical subjects, along with Rome. The English have been oppressors in Ireland for a long time.</p>
<p>
Actually, we wrapped that up a while ago.</p>
<p>
Boredom. And spreading knowledge.</p>
<p>
All of us pretentious poor people getting on your nerves, haha? And I was just relaying something a judge told me. And I don’t think FallenAngel9 called me pretentious. But I like how you’re feeling superior by calling me pretentious.</p>
<p>Furthermore, Freddie Langdon.</p>
<p>Feeling superior by calling someone pretentious. Irony.</p>
<p>Freddie Langdon. Freddie Langdon!</p>
<p>He played the fiddle. Like Nero, who fiddled while Rome burned (in the fire he lit to clear the area for a palace). But that might have actually been a lyre, not a fiddle. Hermes/Mercury made the lyre. He was also a liar.</p>
<p>Word play is fun but I suck at it.</p>
<p>This thread is off-topic.</p>
<p>I write obvious statements obviously.</p>
<p>Nero was crazy. This was because of his genetics and the environment in which he was raised, by the murderous mother that he murdered. There, back on topic. For now.</p>
<p>No, we are brushing by the topic very rudely. Unless the topic is actually the off-topic topic we just approached. But I agree, Nero was an ass.</p>
<p>Yes, it’s more of mocking the topic. Nero moved the Olympics to Rome and competed in like 13 events. Everyone had to let him win, under fear of death. When he fell off his chariot, the other racers turned around and stopped behind him, so he won.</p>
<p>lol I would have just trampled him and gone “Whoops!”</p>
<p>Haha, that would have been nice.</p>
<p>Its called Facebook guys hahaha…</p>
<p>Don’t have one. This is good.</p>
<p>You know what I do have? A bird. He just made a noise, which is why I thought to mention him. And we needed to get off the Nero topic, it went on dangerously long.</p>
<p>Poor birdie…set his ass free man, like free Willie</p>
<p>He’s been outside, flown in big circles, then landed back on me. I don’t do this anymore, though, since I’ve seen hawks take down birds of his size around my house. He’s never locked up in his cage, the door stays open (he can open it, anyway).</p>
<p>Yeah I was afraid Nero would smight me from the grave if we continued demeaning him like that.</p>
<p>I’m glad your bird made a noise, it saved my life.</p>
<p>Haha, I’m pretty sure the Romans took care of him. Though he is the Anti-Christ…</p>
<p>Your bird is the Anti-Christ?!</p>
<p>j/k. SNL is on right now.</p>
<p>Ah, thanks for reminding me.</p>
<p>No problem. It’s pretty funny; still not as good as it used to be, but it’s funny.</p>
