Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

He might not think creeping exploitation of every square inch of his country is a good thing.

I think they have exploited all the exploitable resources. It's just there's only so much use for sun-dried platypus.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Note how he doesn't deny the facts of my statement.

Oh, your 'facts' hardly need a rebuttal. If you wish to stand by them there's little I can do but shake my head in pitying fashion.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You're so American. I didn't say anything about resources. Just the land. Let it lie.

Pfft. This is the kind of thinking that has lead to Jamaica being the leading industrial force which it is today.

Are you ready to be strong?

Does no one know the answer to my Scots question?

I cannot speak for the Scots, but it seems to me I've heard them speak of "uni" also. It being a UK-ism.

I have friends in Scottish universities who call university "uni", but none of them are actually Scottish. Unhelpful, I know.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Didn't you see that picture of the electrified zones of the world taken from outer space? There's a thin ring of civilization on the outer edge of Australia and a vast wasteland in the middle. Which contains their capitol, I think.
