Christmas Eve discussion with crazed neighbor brother #2

I've posted before about a conversation I had with the other brother - casual talk suddenly veered into the New World Order and killing millions. Oh and Planet X that has snuck into our solar system and is creating the rising water levels.

So brother #2 is working in the yard and through the hedges I just say "Merry Christmas" condolences on losing his father this year. His mother has dementia but has in home care. Small talk.

Suddenly "Well the thing I'm worried about is this North Korea". Totally out of nowhere. He said we need some sort of massive first strike then put "people on the ground". I mentioned their artillery and Seoul having 20 million people around it. "Well we need to hit them and then cover the area with some sort of element to stop them from firing". What this "element" would be didn't need to be explored. He thinks some of the guns and ammo are fake. He then went into their "mini-submarines" that can surround the west AND east costs apparently these "mini-submarines" have nuclear capability. I light another smoke (should have walked away) and said that China was our best hope due to their interest in preventing millions of Koreans spilling over the border. He then explained that China has "millions of non-persons" who are unemployed and don't own anything so they can't receive any benefits. So that's China's only concern.

I said I needed to go back inside. Wished him Merry Christmas and left.

Once inside I hear my wife say from up in the kitchen "Well that went well". She was laughing.
Me: " You heard that?"
She: "Some of it. Enough of it. You were very nice."

That I know of. The other one bought a pickup and RV camper and is off who knows where.

This brother doesn't live there but he comes by to take care of the plants.

That's the element that gives the Powerpuff Girls their super powers! I think it stops guns from firing, too.
