| Jul 28, 2016 at 4:35 | comment | added | Rincewind | Great answer, very comprehensive. I agree but to a point. Brian\Pollution and Pepper\War would be the "low hanging fruit" (Crawley and the Garden of Eden), however, I just don't see Wensleydale being equated with Famine. Sable operates outside of the realm of forced attrition and relies on self-denial; whereas Wensleydale takes in knowledge like people take in burgers and fries. At this point, I'm thinking its a British cultural reference (I'm a colonial) or it's a small and overlooked trait that ties them together. Just that one thing, for me, throws it off but it's not a big deal. | |
