I have a natural distrust of anyone named Vivek. My spell checker doesn't even recognize those letters put together.
not that is isn't the Devil, because he will come to you in many forms

but in terms of the word : Vivek is विवेक, which in Sandskrit means "Wisdom"

none the less, you can't judge a book by its cover

Dr. Vivek Murthy, the US Surgeon General, criticized social media platforms for not doing enough to stop the spread of “misinformation” online.
This ain't wisdom. So he/she is a misnomer at best. A wolf in sheep's clothing at the worst.

I hear ya. I was being a bit cheeky.

Jokes explained take all the funny away. If it was a flop then I'd rather let it be a flop.

In all likelihood the August 31st deadline will come and go, and some Americans will still be stranded in Afghanistan.

Then what ?
Prepare the "white male tears" memes.

some mother named him Wisdom with the best interntions no doubt

that he fails to live up to her aspirations is a tragedy I suppose

but Vivek is short form of Vivekananda

so she likely named him after Swami Vivekananda

What the fuck is happening in OEF? No one is taking charge and sending a message to the Durka-durks that if you lay a hand on a single American or prevent them from getting to the airport, we will execute you and two branches of your family tree?

we don't need boots on ground to blow up homes.

A Trumpless America. Sad ain't it. Upside is that there are no mean tweets.
