It sounds like the kind of request AI was made for, I can think of a newly elected deputy who might be able to help you. He's a bit of an expert πŸ˜‰

Now that Assad has fallen trying to figure out who the goodies and the badies are in #Syria is a tad complicated. Delighted for them but the future seems very unclear still.

For my entire life, I have never been able to clap to the beat of a song. I always thought there was something wrong with me, but now I know the real reason. I'm an Irishman. This is indisputable and I only need to point to the audience of #latelatetoyshow to prove it

Leo, the story teller, was the best act. This is non-negotiable and I'm prepared to fight anyone who says otherwise. That kid is going to rule the world and I'm here for it. Remember who said it first
