Fending off the wolves! Clare Danes in Homeland playing Counter Dependent Covert N Carrie. They say that actors play themselves.

I wonder how the World might have been different had JFK been a Fragile N instead of a High Functioning N? Manic Depressive Peter Sellers in Dr Strangelove comes to mind. Strange - Love. Get it? Ideal love? My mother told me how anxious everyone was during the Cuban Missile Crisis! My dad served with the British Army in Germany. I was conceived there. Which probably explains why I'm such an crypto fascist! Apparently all exercise scenarios invariably led to nuclear war. I've told her she worries too much. Codependents like her and Bertrand Russell do! Cryptic buggers aren't we!

It's good to be the King! Golden Child Rex amusing himself. His girlfriend entered the House later on and the fireworks really started!

Necessary evil!

British warships are frequently named after Greek gods and heroes. The reason is that naval officers from high ranking families used to receive classical educations at high status universities. Ivy League, they would be called in the US.

Oh, I completely disagree with this. Narcbolan here seems to be invalidating someone else's feelings. Telling someone else what is or is not hurtful to them seems wildly inappropriate, because no one can truly know what is hurtful to another person. And Narcbolan also says that he was in the right? That is a highly Narcissistic thing to say. I really think we ought to question whether this individual is appropriately suited to be a mod on this sub-forum.
