You''re always at sixes and sevens....

I prefer skill over strength, don't you? What fun doesn't have 5 syllables. What's fevour? I think you're disqualified! What say you M_1?

M_1
clever!

Is this another 'Brit'-type phrase I'm unfamiliar with? Is this a 'good' thing or a 'bad' thing? In either case, I will always object to the word always.

You're right to object. I should have said that six times out of seven, you're at sixes and sevens. Don't you recall your mathematically challenged Haiku? 6? 7?
