The "eerily well" was an ironic reference to the claim of wetting my pants.
But your explanation works, too, I suppose. A quick question, though: what type of government do you prefer? _________________ |

I believe Aristotle mentioned something that basically described my perfect type of government but I'm not sure it was him. _________________ |

Actually, it was Plato who envisioned philosophers as rulers in his political discourse, which is rather totalitarian.
Aristotle thought that democracy was the least perverted of the corrupted forms of government. _________________ |

No not that. I meant he had a quote specifically about my ideal government. At least I think it was him. That and I fail to see what is wrong with totalitarianism. _________________ |

Totalitarianism is like totally obsessive.
