    Don’t shoot until you see the white of their eyes. Or they repost and spam the place.

    I welcome all newbies, so long as they are human. Dated an alien once, she was from X-R/3DY. A cold planet, just like her.

      Don’t shoot until you see the white of their eyes.

      That was the Karolinerna (Swedish soldiers) philosophy under the King Karl XII rule. Get so close to the enemy that you see the white part of the eye before firing your rifle, in order not to miss your target.

      You are either very good at history or you heard it in a Sabaton song, which also indicate good music taste. ;)
