Don’t be so smug. It’s only a matter of time until you are conscripted. I was drafted totally without warning and am still serving my mistress 8 years later.

They control my wife.

Awwww. There never was any doubt about who is in charge.
Only reason I’m allowed to live here is because I have opposable thumbs, and know how to use the can-opener.
