Ronka87: Okay, this is kind of the same problem we started having in the YKTTW before the launch, but I thought I'd got rid of it by retooling the description. I really want to keep in the "military history" angle, even if only broadly, because it's an important aspect of many of the Urban Legends. However, we obviously don't want people to keep accidentally comparing war vets to perverts or insinuating that being in the army makes someone depraved. So I've rewritten the example with Roahl Dahl to be a bit more general and explain a little about why the "served in the army" bit is generally added as a detail (because there is a startling contrast between "killed people" and "makes children laugh"). I hope that makes it clearer that just being in the army does not a Depraved Kids' Show Host make.

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions, cake?
