regimen....unless you meant they change monarchs or presidents during typhoons. :)

ha ha. you ever been in about 100% humidity and near 100 degrees F? That "regime" is more absolute than any monarch. If every blade of grass were a pen, and oceans filled with ink, 8 billion scribes could not write legislation and rules enough to be that oppressive. . . . well, until you learn to just love it for what it is.

moreover, my wife has a regime that far surpasses all that, though fortunately, if I care to consider the matter carefully, she is commensurately more lovable.

I reject the "regimen" suggestion as sounding too much like a weight-loss diet. . . . nope. . . the word is indeed "regime".
 
The British work the other end of the scale quite effectively. . . .

typically called "British Understatement".

it would seem to some that the upper crust is entitled to expect intelligence in their subjects, and if it's just not there it's time to thin the herd.

I see this joy in my dogs, when I open the gate and step out of the way, with nothing to stop them within the four horizons. . . . .
 
How?

“Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays

"the song?"


Well, obviously. . . . this imperative is merely a vain attempt, in this specific case, to rattle the shackles of a particularly obdurate progressive. . . . .

though, generally, political ideologues as a generic class are folks who have embraced their particular cause, whatever it may be, with a cadaverous clasp while continuing to speak in a sort of death-rattle that informs the experienced observer that cogitation has ceased.
 
My children and I are now Whobies. When I come home, and mom goes to bed, the kids come to my room and we watch Dr. Who.

Your mention of "the song?" reminds me of the Ood. Some of the nicest non-people ever imagined by Sci-Fi writers. They have a song of their own.

I think everyone should have a song of their own.
