          subtraction rule only allows a smaller numeral to be placed before a larger one if it is one of the following combinations: IV, IX, XL, XC, CD, or CM. The numeral ‘i’ ((1)) can only be placed before a ‘V’ ((5)) or an ‘X’ ((10)).

    We joke about it, but I remember stupid yanks falling for something similar immediately after the World Trade centre attack

    As a country, their ignorance is matched only by their arrogance

      Yeah, our stupid people really broke the mold over here. They are painfully dumb, and trying to reason with them will actually damage your health.

        Homemade falafel and hummus is so much better than store bought and so easy. I just gotta perfect a pita recipe.
