[@gonufc]

Bertrand Russell told a story of a philosophy student who wrote an extremely long essay explaining why he felt it was unjust to send him to fight in the 1st World War. He researched it for weeks, put a huge amount of effort into his arguments and eventually sent it off. At which point someone said "You know, all you had to put down was 'Quaker' under religion to get out"

[@spongebob8222]

One gets the feeling from his stories sometimes that Larry David would have a harder time pretending to be what many people would consider 'sane' than being 'insane'.

I dont understand why he joined the reserve. I too graduated in 1970. The first draft lottery was in late 1969 and based on Larrys birthday his number was in the high 300’s. Mine was 204 and for 1970 198 was the highest number used for that years draft.
