How about giving Laman and Lemuel a break?
[24] And if it so be that they rebel against me, they shall be a scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in the ways of remembrance.
All of this recent 'giving someone a break' discussion is reminding me of this 1980's TV Sitcom.
Gimme a Break!

Ludwigm, it galls me to be in such a position. I've appealed to Shades about this, but he was adamant. It is almost like he is in a penal position (nothing naughty) with his usage of Outer Darkness, which as you know feels like a badge of shame. It is beyond the past realm of Shulem and without comforting the numbing effect of a brisk drink, so it stings even more. I entertain thoughts of abandoning posting here because it makes me feel so bad (yeah, like anyone would notice or care). It is one thing to feel hollow in posting, but quite another to feel shamed in the process.
