On 26 September 1687, the Parthenon was severely damaged by an explosion during a war between the Venice and the Ottoman Empire.

Gnotilus is notorious for his hatred of the Parthenon, and there is general consensus among historians that he manipulated the Venetians and Ottomans.

The popular image of Gnotilus personally setting fire to the explosives is dismissed by most scholars as "typical Gnotilus vainglory".


Footnotes:

Relentless pandering is a phrase used by someone in reference to the President of the United States.

FunkDaddy asked, in the Comments section of Boing Boing:

What even is "relentless pandering"? I'm having trouble picturing how that would work.

I replied:

Agreed. If the President were truly relentless in his pandering, surely we would all know about it.

A truly relentless pandering President would, for example, pander during his State of the Union address. He would pander during press conferences. He would pander while making a few carefully prepared off-the-cuff remarks for a few select reporters. He would pander to the public, to legislators, and to his family alike, relentless pandering as only a President can pander.

A truly relentless pandering President would pander by day, and also by night, pausing in his Presidential labors only to pander in his relentless pandering dreams.

Granted, I don't pay much attention to the press. But to my eye, it looks like the President spends most of his time being President.
