Dear The History Channel:

In re: The 'True Story' of Alexander the Great you aired last night.

While it is completely true that "They didn't call him Alexander the Spineless" (as per your excellent advertising scheme), it is also true that they didn't call him "Alexander the Strategically Incompetant" or "Alexander the Incredibly Heterosexual", or "Alexander the Sulkily Moronic" or "Alexander the One Who Possessed Many Black & White Elephants Who Charged in Doubletime, circa movies of 1937".

No love at all,
Kali

How about "Alexander of the Shetland Ponies", or "Alexander the Oak-Tag Clad"?

Or "Alexander the Carpet-armored" or Alexander of the Faux Leopard Outerwear" (the latter contrasting intriguingly with Alexander the Incredibly Heterosexual)

Were he not Incredibly Heterosexual, he would have found himself some rather more convincing Faux.
