Saturday morale boost

by chuckofish

Need a morale boost this weekend? Here’s how the students of one New Zealand school paid their respects to a retiring teacher. Watch the whole thing, it’s short.

Lest you catch yourself recoiling from all that “toxic masculinity”, notice how controlled everyone is, and how when they finish they go on about their business as if nothing has happened. That’s not toxic, it’s healthy and great for morale!

As Xenophon observed in his Anabasis,

“…it is not numbers or strength that bring the victories in war. No, it is when one side goes against the enemy with the gods’ gift of a stronger morale that their adversaries, as a rule, cannot withstand them. 

So chin up! Let us face our opponents with God’s gift of stronger morale!
