I hate young people trying to pretend they are old by using antiquated and stereotypical words.

Do they really think we are all fuddy-duddies?
Bah!

LMAO :lol:
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

It was thought to be dangerous to have all them warriors floating around with nothing to keep them interested.

And of course the soldiers believed that they would be happy in the afterlife for sacrificing their lives in service to the gods.

The diseases brought by the Europeans took care of this problem.

The point being, wars and plagues are good solutions to overpopulation, "birth control" seeming to have no real impact.

Um, no. The Flower Wars were about competing and capturing as many of the opposing forces as you could ...for later sacrifice.

It was said the first Flower War was held after a great famine. Warriors were the best sacrifices to send to appease the gods, so ritual battles were held to gather the necessary offerings.

A horrid thing it is indeed.
I expected to be placed in an air force combat position such as security police, forward air control, pararescue or E.O.D. I would have liked dog handler. I had heard about the dog Nemo and was highly impressed. “SFB” is sad I didn’t end up in E.O.D.

I never said I was old!

I must be right around Crackpots age, as a guess. I'm 38 CP, how about you? :nana
Personally, I don’t believe in bros before hoes, or hoes before bros. There needs to be a balance. A homie-hoe-stasis, if you will.

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.
