One of the more bizarre evil dictators, I'm surprised he isn't brought up more often.

Gotta love the title he gave himself "His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular."

By even mentioning him, you're doing him a big favour.

If I was an evil dictator I would definitely give myself a title like that.
And medals. Lots and lots of medals. :approve:

Perhaps 'I' is the name of Math Is Hard's alter ego. That is one way that the sentence would be correct.

Did he grow up in Rhode Island and Providence Plantation? (longest formal state name in the US)

But wait! I like how he crowned himself King of Scotland, liked racecars and Mickey Mouse.
