Whoa...looks like you win hands-down then.

TB — 4/22/2008 11:42:27 PM (archived)

I personally have started no less than eight wars for fictional reasons, including a nuclear bombardment of Ireland for harboring leprechauns in violation of U.N. resolutions, and firing a lunar catapult load onto the palace of Kim Jong Il just for Generally Being A Dick.

Wait, he actually is a dick so maybe that one doesn't count.
