Rooks, if the Uruk Hai were coming to assault your lands would you cower in Helms Deep or ride out to meet them in battle?

Whichever option I determined gave me the best chance of success.

In the heat of an Uruk Hai invasion you don't have a statistic on win or loss percentages!

Well I'm not going to consult a spreadsheet, no

But looking at their/my numbers, available weapons, etc - if I think we stand a better chance by hunkering down and whittling them down/waiting them out, sure - it's not just about me and my honor, my entire kingdom's lives depend on the outcome. I don't give a ***about my reputation if it means a couple more children see their 10th birthdays.

But if I think we have a better chance fighting them in the open field, then sure, WE RIDE

I don't think anything is going to turn you into a moderate, certainly not an immigration crisis

Ultimately, it's self-interest. Can't be a king with no kingdom.

But they are cheap labor! Just feed them a couple towns full of peasants and they can clean the bathrooms cheap!

Completely possible, and actually pretty healthy if you ask me!

Sometimes though, you just don't know Rooks! Theoden didn't know that the Elves and Gandalf would some to his rescue! You would lead your kingdom to ruin.

Which is hardly surprising to anyone who's visited this site in the last year, but thanks for the update, Cronkite

Naw, you aren't leading this website to ruin.

More like a revolution, but still, not downwards, more sideways.

I'm obviously not Rooks but this is a bit outside of his territory so I'll give you the gist of Scragg's explanation;

Basically, Scragg can and has turned off video ads and ads with sounds, redirects, etc. but they tend to make it in sometimes and depending on how the ads target you (based on search history, page content, etc.) they may be fairly common. They shouldn't be there but they are and we can't really do much as it's on Google's end.

Stop using an operating system that ended support literally years ago. I know Pale Moon has moved on, can only guess other browsers have as well.
