Ha, ha, nice. Looking at contemporary Grecians compared to ancient Grecians is far worse than criticizing America's empire for being "lame" compared to their ancestors' British one. I mean, no one really talks about America's navy the same way. And you guys don't even have a king, or a Duke of Wellington laying the smackdown on Napoleon. You guys didn't even catch Osama bin Laden.

I say if the ancient Greeks didn't wear pants, then no one should have to. Real men don't need pants.

But for the record, I'm all about clothes, even at home. However, I don't claim to need them; I just prefer them.
