Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves…We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed.--Ada Louise Huxtable, "Farewell to Penn Station", New York Times editorial, 30 October 1963 X-Ray Blues
"This cult of special forces is as sensible as to form a Royal Corps of Tree Climbers and say that no soldier who does not wear its green hat with a bunch of oak leaves stuck in it should be expected to climb a tree"
— Field Marshal William Slim 1956

It is just a drawing! You are all hopeless flatterers, you know; I am humbled by it. But my thanks for the compliments regardless, and I shall nod my thanks once more to the brilliance of the artist who created such a masterpiece (for it really is).
As for the title... That, friends, is to be guessed.

So what your saying (showing) is that you look like Admiral Dalaa? Is your hair really that long, I imagined shorter?
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

Well what do you know, I was pretty close in my head (if that's close to how you look), though I had your hair at being slightly shorter, and the skin not so pale (though as it's you as a Vampire, I'll put it down to artistic licence )
Um, Cuddles, you do realise that Gözde has 2 meanings in Turkish, the more modern interpretation and the older Ottoman meaning. Now the Modern one fits nicely, the older one casts a whole new light on you
Ah well, old or new, you'll always be Cuddles to me.

Copy and paste the below into the Search bar of Google
"Gözde" "means"
In the first two hits you should find one message that holds the modern meaning, and a link to its use in the Ottoman Empire, for the older meaning. Happy hunting.
