Awful Archie

[mylodon]

I shall match eglantine_br's Archie with another.

Mine is a dangerous one. Quote from WWI flyer's letter home:

The worst part of going over the lines is the Archie. That is simply awful.

Before you have visions of the little toad taking pot shots with a catapult, an Archie was an anti-aircraft gun.

*groan* I'm going to have to lend you my Patented Pointless Posts tag at this rate! XD

Oi! How can any post about a) WWI and b) Archie be pointless?

[anteros-lmc.livejournal.com]

I jest. Archie, is never, never pointless. Pointed perhaps, but never pointless ;)

[charliecochrane.livejournal.com]

Pointed, pointy, and "a point", deffo.

[eglantine-br.livejournal.com]

Sometimes he is the whole point. And yes, a pointer not a setter!

[charliecochrane.livejournal.com]

The point, the whole point and nothing but the point.

Just saw this again and wondered if you were being cleverly lavatorial. I once saw two loo doors labelled "pointers" and "setters".
