I could have sworn I heard unimportant mumbling just now.

And again :D

Interesting how, after I've just joined this thread to make a few on-topic points (and post a few nonsense links while at it), it's once again someone else who's trying to bring in older feuds...


Makes me think of a classic moment in the Russian poem "Ruslan and Ludmila" by Pushkin:
Ludmila is abducted from her husband by the evil sorcerer gnome, who holds her captive in her castle and tries to make her fall in love with him by giving her beautiful clothes, delicious food etc.

But Ludmila looks at all this and gives a dramatic, hammy and demonstrative monologue assuring that she'll never touch these gifts and, if so she must, will rather die and starve than betray her love... and then...

"so she thought... and began to eat."



LOL!
