Re: POINTLESS THREAD IIc: ESCAPE FROM RAPTOR MOUNTAIN
onewheelwizzard:
I literally JUST saw those and logged on to post them. Awesome.
Josefbugman:
... I am not sure wether to be utterly repulsed or very very happy with those historical facts.
Nodaisho:
I had forgotten about Roosevelt being shot. He was pretty ridiculously intense.
Ozymandias:
Technically, he didn't get shot mid-speech, he got shot as he was about to make it. This is important, because he survived due to the fact that the bullet passed through the folded, lengthy speech in his breast pocket. Of course, the motherfucker still stood up there with a bullet in his chest and told the people "Hey guys, I'm fucking Teddy Roosevelt, why the fuck are you still voting for Taft and Wilson, fuck you guys."
Nodaisho:
Yeah. And he decided to make the speech because he knew from his experience hunting just about every animal on the face of the earth that if he wasn't coughing blood, it hadn't gotten to his lung, so why worry?
He's also the guy that created the national parks, and pushed for ethical hunting laws after having seen the bison hunted nearly to extinction. And then in his late 50s he goes and explores a previously uncharted (by white people) river in South America.
Basically, Roosevelt would kick just about any president's ass at anything. Including ass-kicking, seeing as he was an avid boxer and a brown belt in Judo.
