"Five villages over" could be 50 miles. Those villages might have been able to spare five to ten men each - if they'd been willing to send any at all. After all, they're not here, not yet.
And "just taken longer" doesn't work when you have to carry your food with you; beyond a certain range you'd have to set off with more rations than you could physically lift. Again, that's assuming you have sufficient suitable food to spare.
Jump forward a couple of millennia, with all the improvements in technology & agriculture that entails, and the entire kingdom of England, with its very existence threatened, was only able to put about 7 thousand men in the field.
The designers thought that the tried-and-true rail standards were obsolete, so they created something new that was up-to-date with the standards of the aerospace industry.
I thought the aerospace industry made things that fly, rather than running on funny-sized rails?

And while you're stuck in a massive traffic jam because everybody else took your advice, you can smile smugly that you avoided the taint of communism.

It's like having a piano that's now in tune, but he's still hitting the wrong keys.
If by pure chance he hits the right keys, he hits them in the wrong order.
Yup. Just them, the bastards, with their "manifest destiny" and "master race" concepts.
Stupid fat cunt.
A queue is "first in first out", unless you're in France. It can't, by definition, be out of sync.
It has a load of crap that I can neither change nor remove. That's not the case with something like Fedora, Debian etc.
Kernel schmernel already.
It totally is - right among all the dark satanic mills.

I didn't think it was actually possible to flunk Marketing 101. Until now.
I tried that, but I find it difficult to keep my knee against the steering wheel.
Virtual reality has always been almost here.

Are you talking about Adams, or Trump?
*Golf clap*.
I know how to read & comprehend English. You, it seems, don't.
He was telling the truth. None of them speak English at all.
