Squad
2018 Wests Tigers Squad:[4]
gollark: "Life" is kind of equivocation-y.
gollark: We see stuff like mistreating animals as generally bad and to be avoided if possible, but not absolutely disallowed regardless of reason.

gollark: If you look sufficiently confident and/or attractive, you can do anything ever and nobody can hope to stop you.
gollark: You should be less confident. You're very wrong.
