    Fencing 101 Classic Quotes

    I couldn't find this in the archives so....

    I propose we post those quotes that archive the more colourful comments on the board. For example, those comments about Soldier's Chickens.

    Feel free to post the best (and worst) that you can remember. Preferably with a link to the thread they appeared in.

    Like this:

    "Those comments about Soldier and the chickens in his room"

    If it's stupid, but it works, it's not stupid.

    Any of Cornflower's "In Soviet Russia..." quotes.

    Brings to mind the great Yakov Smirinov quote:

    "In the United States, you can always find party. In the Soviet Union, party always finds you...."
    Why sabre? Because you don't take heads with the point.

    Some people are like slinkys. They serve no useful purpose, but it sure feels good when you push them down the stairs.

    This is not from these boards, but the most recent issue of "Physics Today" contains an article which states: "A brick does not fly because it was not designed to fly."

    I don't get these russian 'jokes' but I'll try for an american version of them:

    (Not really funny eh?)
