I’m missing something here. Admittedly, I’m making the assumption that blowing up hospitals is a bad thing to do.

    You get hours to plot trajectories and line up a shot on an incoming missile or drone from those rsnges.

    Is that because Iran, Iran so far away?

          It’s a line from Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran, which is what the above guy was referencing with “Iran so far away”

          Not racist lol, just an 80s band joke

            “appearance of impropriety” and that, though I’d point out “too close to hide” would be both more pertainant a reference to Hungry Like The Wolf lyrics in a discussion about dodging missiles/drones and more difficult to read as an out-the-blue bigoted comment about Iranians.

            I wasn’t sure what you were going for as, as “the above guy” I am quite confident in asserting I Ran is a reference to a song by aFIockOfSeagulls so I wouldn’t think non-sequitus reference to something or someone smelling would be lyrics to a different band’s song. Especially when nothing about missiles (to my knowledge) smells anything like missiles or drones sound…

            They aren’t even the same genre. Duran Duran is post-punk–influenced pop-rock and aFlockOfSeagulls are firmly New Wave.

              Got my bands wrong ☠️

              I get deeply lost on musical genres that sound too similar.

              Either way, not my best comedic attempt for sure, but I own my mistakes so I won’t delete it.
