Every year I make handmade crackers, and the kid moans about the “dad jokes”, so this year I have decided to talk more directly to Gen Z.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like it’s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster you’d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals won’t talk about their missing kids

Oh, this is a good topic!
There is an element of 'consent' to pitched battles, but it's not the old myth of generals agreeing to have a battle before tea time.
And to the question - a better Roman general would presumably have refused battle at a place like Cannae.
But let's talk about it. 1/

I don't think I really understand "pitched battle." It was once common that opposing armies agreed upon, or knowingly converged upon, a specified battleground?
Polybius says the Romans engaged at Cannae because of inexperience. Would experienced leaders ever agree to the same battle conditions?
