Slow quote

Not being one to mince words (or meat), I found an apt quote to help justify my prudence. Here's some hell, written by one of my favourite Italian writers and fellow Gemini, Dante Alighieri.

There dwelt a race, who slow their eyes around
Majestically mov'd, and in their port
Bore eminent authority; they spake
Seldom, but all their words were tuneful sweet.

Hell, Canto IV

What the hell is this? Where's the inciseful commentary? Where's the extension of the introduced idea? Where's the LOVE? C'mon! Let's see some action!
 
What the hell is this? It's hell, Foomy, it's hell! It's just a hellish quote. The extended idea will remain obfuscated until exposed.
Ask the Peas for some love and Dan for some action.
 
Action Dan! I'll stick sticks in your probable region and then you'll know the name of action! There is no logic so profound it can't be reduced to flaming cowdung with rabid invectives!
 
You wanted action and I gave you action! I'll bet you didn't even go the Peas' website.
Then again, I wouldn't have bet on seeing cowdung and invectives in the same sentence ...
