PEACE...
it means to be in the midst
of noise, trouble and strife
and still be calm
in your heart.

Ideology is not reality.
To make good policy, one must consider all ideologies and decide which best solves the reality of the situation. Ideology is afterall, JUST AN IDEA.

Called it mee-lee for a few years until Super Smash Bros Melee came out and I heard it used frequently. Phonetically I think it should be mee-lee, but it must be one of those weird exceptions in English.

So what does Mey Ley sound like? When I say it, it sounds like may lay.

May lay, and anyone who doesn't say it that way is wrong!

lol im a derp.

i quoted wrong person.

I say it more like muh-lay or meh-lay because that's how I read it when I was playing AC at 10 years old.

I know it's may-lay, I just refuse to correct myself
