Thoughts of Tragically Deep Depths

Be careful about people who use the saying "double edged sword", because quick history lesson- most swords were double edged. 


Historically, the sword was developed in the Bronze Age circa 1600 BC and in the most narrow sense, consists of a straight blade with two edges and a hilt. And yes, Dad, I realize the kitana, scimitar and sabre are all single edged swords, but they are the exception and not the rule. So please stop trying to steal my thunder. Being British doesn't excuse you.


I feel like you shouldn't trust someone who doesn't have a basic knowledge of weaponry in Antiquity. That's like trusting someone who wears a puca shell necklace, loves Nascar, and always stocks up on Yankee Candles when they visit the Cracker Barrel. That's 3 strikes right there, and that's not even the tip of their Danielle Steele complete collection iceberg. They've already made poor life decisions, do you really want to follow them into that? I didn't think so, but then again, you were ready to take unmarked chocolate from a stranger.
