I know this is a meme, but I always considered Yoda as winning the fight, but without enough left to fight off any reinforcements, being thus unable to finish the job. Winning the battle but losing the war, etc.

I like raw garlic in a number of dishes; gives a spicy sensation. Especially if Mediterranean style (as it was taught to me anyway).
I know; check my nickname, based off my real name.
Probably. Ask a teacher.
Nah, listen to the Behind the Bastards episode on him. He's a piece of shit, and I'll never feel sad on his behalf.
Alright Nixon's head, let's get you to bed.
One of the biggest issues I have with a ton of people is the need to have a "glorious leader", or the assumption that everyone has one. I'll vote against Trump doesn't mean Biden is my "glorious leader", nor Bernie, nor AOC. People are flawed and worshiping someone will always be problematic. Never meet your heroes, etc.
People also seem to act like hating what one country does means you have to love what the countries considered enemies of them do. America has done a ton of shit and still does a ton of shit it shouldn't do, and I think we need to be honest about the impact and work to fix it. I think Russia and China also fits in those roles.
There isn't a world leader today I'd treat as infallible, and I have never pledged my allegiance to a country (at first, for religious reasons, but now that I am not religious, more for ideological reasons). I will still work for the betterment of where I live, pay taxes, etc, but I'm not going to be some jingoistic nationalist nor act like there is some perfect country I'd rather be in. I might eventually want to be in a different country depending how the future goes, but it wouldn't be because I think that country is perfect. I don't believe such a thing exists.
? Meaning of life is absolutely not what I heard about growing up. Mostly Holy Grail. Once I joined reddit years back I saw life of Brian stuff. I'm not sure I heard of Meaning of Life before you just mentioned it. I actually assumed you meant life of Brian until I googled it. I'm also in IT, and have been since '99.
