people are in FreeDC's mentions trying to say this wasn't the national guard (it was) or that it was somehow necessary—friends, the mayor and the entire Metropolitan Police Department shouldn't be getting repeatedly outwitted by not even half a high school to the point of needing the national guard.

In a world where ragebait factories train people to view every narrative as a game of combat to be beaten or outwitted, of course these easy-mode dimbulbs are going to act like they’re being personally attacked when confronted by an unreliable narrator.
i hate how people and even literature sometimes reduces the concept of an unreliable narrator to 'the book lying to you', not 'you are viewing the world through the eyes of someone who does not see an absolute truth'

Another translation
“ They played dirty”
Meaning
They outwitted me using facts”
Up there with
“They have a low IQ”
Meaning
“ I am pissed they are much smarter than me”

Alas, outwitted again!
I have no choice but to admit defeat.
I can arrange for your release, and more than this, assign an escort of ours for your protection all the way back to your base. 😊
A sign of good faith.

It would be nice to see those neanderthals outwitted with dye packets, like the kind banks use.
Fluorescent foreheads and hair would reveal who these cowards are.😊

A bunch of unarmed extraordinarily brave people put on inflatable animal costumes and have humiliated and outwitted a set of hastily hired bullies.

as a foreigner coming here it feels very in-keeping with the general vibe that the thing that make americans feel the best is feeling like they've hacked the system and outwitted others

In Palestinian folktale "The Golden Pail," a prince undertook a quest after his father said, "prove yourself worthy of the throne through hardships." With Ballan, a djinn horse, he overcame grueling feats, escaped murder, and outwitted evil minister, earning skills to be a good ruler.

Do not mistake the U.S. for the world. The U.S. is an aging bully who can still punch hard but is more and more easily outwitted and outpaced by nations who have kept up with science and art.
The loudest guy is not the only guy. The world is rife with compassion and true non-mercenary innovation.

"How to Win an Information War: Sefton Delmer, the Genius Propagandist Who Outwitted Hitler"-Peter Pomerantsev. Read this based on a Ted talk by the author. It's an expanded version of that w/more history, details, citations. Fascinating look at the propaganda war in WWII (both sides). #booksky #204

The FT is a great newspaper but one thing I find downright comical about it is its sincere belief that Trump has outwitted Netanyahu, a belief that dates back to the first ceasefire, one that, notably, was violated

I got lost in a corn field when I was about three and it still resonates (probably reinforced by the picture my parents took when they found me).
Imagine having a searing memory like that but instead it's 3-yo, "I've totally outwitted the claw machine and get to live among toys forever"?

I know what you're thinking and no, that's not how they rescued him.

The fattest, slowest states in the union.
Love to see them get outwitted. Even though it don't take much.
