Drachisms of the Day: 16:00 "That's the first I've seen a battleship on Ebay." 28:54 "Which is full of torpedos and guns and shells and other kinds of explosive things which make the pyromaniac in me very happy."". 35:45 "They're just a little bit 'glass cannony'". 42:47 "Unlike an active sonar, which is where you hear the 'PIINNGG'". 45:43 "Because this is a 3-inch steel cable. There aren't that many sharks out there that are gonna gnaw that off." 46:07 "So it had to be a slightly different type of cable-cutter. One that effectively went "Nom. Nom. Nom. Nom." If you imagine a gigantic, underwater mouse or hamster that eats steel, you've got pretty much the right idea." 49:55 "The Conqueror was able to snip thru the cable, clamp it to it's side and make off with it with a low laugh." 50:20 "So perhaps the kleptomaniac tendencies of the British Armed Services were needed in this case." 55:35 "You ended up with a shell pattern that was ... ahhh...it would impress the Italians. On a BAD day of their shooting." 01:30:58 "And had a rather interesting habit of either not listening to them or not listening to them and then killing them. Because they obviously knew best." 01:32:24 "REALLY? You want me to pronounce that?" 01:38:10 "So you're not going to get the decisive leadership except possibly for orders to withdraw." 01:38:50 "It also has, apparently, divine protection from being hit." 01:51:25 "Which is a bit weird. But then the phrase "Well, that was a bit weird" and "Imperial Japanese Navy" get conflated an awful lot more than is common for most other navies when it comes to the Second World War." 02:04:27 "Pick your particular flavor of poison when it comes to that particular, um, treacherous pit of discussion." 02:18:32 "Oh boy. I need a drink now."
