Title: The greatest tragedy of the 20th century.
Post by: Joseph Davis on January 29, 2010, 07:50:34 PM
ITT we all post up what we feel to be the greatest tragedy of the period 1900-1999.  Provide picture(s) and commentary.  You will be graded on content, presentation, style, ownership of blue dashes, and heterosexuality.  At the conclusion of this thread I will pick the winning entry, by the way here it is:


The death of Andre the Giant.

Technically he failed in the 21st, apparently Texas loved him in the 20th and Randum-Strike for the 21st. So it would be his election for greatest tragety.

Hmmm I would says world wars 1 and 2 but really those wars pushed innovation and things like that and if they had not happened it would have changed the flow of time so much that I probably wouldn't have been born.
 Or worse Jeff Frank would have been born, but because such warpage of the time space continuim had occured wouldn't have cared about turbo honda's at all, Thus causing him to create HomemadeWineCellar.com.
So looking at it that way I'm glad both world wars happened.
  
I would say the worst tragedy would be Rap music.

It's so fucking stupid listening to it puts me into a rage. Country has the same affect. Except for Johnny Cash he was bad ass.

  And going way back lets not forget Typhoid Mary,
Quoted
Mary Mallon seemed a healthy woman when a health inspector knocked on her door in 1907, yet she was the cause of several typhoid outbreaks. Since Mary was the first "healthy carrier" of typhoid fever in the United States, she did not understand how someone not sick could spread disease -- so she tried to fight back.

After a trial and then a short run from health officials, Mary was recaptured and forced to live in relative seclusion upon North Brother Island off New York. Who was Mary Mallon and how did she spread typhoid fever?

Chris you can find tablature and sheet music for that song so it is infact a song and does not suck I listened to it and did not want to break something. My only argument about rap would be that it declined quickly after the 80's.

Haha You know Johnny it's pretty stupid how science has know for about a hundred years that glaciers spread then melt off every 20000 years. They know where in the end of the decline right now. Hippy faggots just like to blame long term processes on short term us.
In a few thousand years if humanity is still around and glaciers start moving into and destroying northern cities they'll blame it on us for driving hybrid cars. They’ll say our co2 emissions could have created a stable global climate.  The cool thing about that time period is that archeologists will get to study Venice Italy when the sea water recedes into the ice caps.
