One of the lessons of history is that nothing is often a good thing to do and always a clever thing to say.

One thing that great explorers need to develop is a disdainful sneer. Whether faced by a rabid flock of penguins or FM Radio traffic announcers, a good media performer needs an effective pose to inform the world of their innate superiority.

This is what Henry is working on here. I am told that he resembles his father here. I do disdain very well.

Disdain and disgust.
