To quote nobel prize winner Xaviera Tuigamala 'Man's greatest enemy is complacency with regards to personal and political hygiene.' This quotation leads me to suspect that he was not unaccustomed to Friend Genius. It speaks volumes. If I may be as bold as to paraphrase, he was saying that 'political ideals are built on the solid cornerstone of Friend Genius.'
Since the Renaissance, Friend Genius has become more and more prevalent. May it continue.
What can we conclude? Well, Friend Genius has, and will continue to be a major building block for the world in which we live. It questions, brings glamour to an unglamorous time and figures show it's a winning formular.
One final thought from the talented Justin Clooney: 'Oooh yeah Friend Genius shoo badaby dooo.'
