Don't get mad because someone insults your religion. If I'd got 10 cent for every time someone insulted me for being christian I would be a millionaire. Religious feelings must be ignored (The poor Hindus-> half of the world finds the idea of holy cows ridiculous).

The Necromancer has a supernatural ability to bring long-dead forum discussion threads back to life. After having been flogged to death the thread may have been deceased for many years, and bringing it back may have scant relevance to the current topic, yet Necromancer will unexpectedly exhume the thread’s rotting corpse, and strike horror in the forum as its grotesque form lurches into the discussion. The monster, instantly recognized by all who knew it in life, seems at first to breathe and have a pulse, but, alas, it is beyond Necromancer’s skill to fully restore the thread’s original vitality.
Pfft those winged hussars
