I just saw this as the opening on a documentary on Prime.

quote:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Why would Peter be trolled by this? He's the man in the arena.

Also, what was your previous handle here before Wwarmouth?

He would use the man in arena meme to disparage any richt criticism...can't criticize right if you never played blah blah blah

They didn’t troll me. It was their only play. The donation troll of CHD was good though.
