Not sure about never been done in real life - some of the Provos and Unionists in Northern Ireland pivoted their cell structures from terrorism to profitable crime when peace broke out.

- eru 4y agoIt's a reasonable common idiom with tongue firmly planted in cheek. (Btw, you've been shadowbanned a while ago. I'm only mentioning this, because your recent comments seem sane as far as I can tell.)
- canadianfella 4y agoThank you. I know my comments are usually short, but I like to ask questions to learn new things. Appreciate you letting me know. I guess I need to try a new account.
- hn_go_brrrrr 4y agoYou should email dang. I didn't bother to review your comment history, but if your new comments are avoiding whatever got you shadow banned, he'll probably give you another chance. Skipping that step, there's a very good chance your new account would get auto-shadowbanned as well.
- canadianfella 4y agoThank you again. I will give that a try!
- HeyLaughingBoy 4y agoTIL. I've only ever heard it on an episode of Monty Python. Wonder if it's just a UK thing.
- eru 4y agoI've heard it in other context, but those people might have picked it up (indirectly) from Monty Python.
