That's a good point. I think everyone being sold on Perl 6 fixing Perl 5's issues and then
I'm waiting for the Perl 7 release. Then I can really talk about the string of Perls.
(Honestly, it just popped into my head)
See, this is the thing. We let you on the last Internet we built, the one we started with 110 baud modems, and you messed it up.
So we already built a new Internet 2. It's here, it runs on 100 GB/s ports with 40 GB/s campuswide at all the top research universities.
And we're not letting you on it.
Now you can keep your spam and we'll go solve the mysteries of the universe while you post hate speech at each other over meaningless twaddle.
Pshaw. Call that an internet? Here on Internet 3 we have 10 Tb/s ports and 600 Gb/s installation-wide. And we get a headache when we have to think down to your level.

I'm in two minds about that.

America is vastly more democratic than Iran.
Tut now. Unless I miss my bet (and I'm not in the states, so I may will miss) you folks aren't a democracy, any more than any other country in the world. You are an elected oligarchy, in that you vote from a presented group of other citizens to have them represent your wishes, etc, within the governmental system of your country.
Of course, once elected, they're not obliged to behave according to the wishes of the people that elected them.
I suspect Iranian government is much the same - but maybe the choices of oligarchs are more
Have you ever eaten squirrel? Stringy, gamy as hell and hardly any real meat to speak of.

Successful people are those who fail and don't give up.
Nonsense. This sounds like one of those take-aways from a life coach seminar. Successful people are those with good ideas, don't give up, are lucky, are in the right place at the right time, and
Cue people responding with bad, successful ideas. (Seriously, I'm interested).
