    How come nobody worships ME as a god, huh? I’m at LEAST as awesome as Gen MacArthur

    Also my ankle hurts so I called into work

    Also also, thanks for driving me to look up Ridgway.

    On the day of the Germans’ furthest advance in the Battle of the Bulge, Ridgway commented to his subordinate officers in the XVIII Airborne Corps: “The situation is normal and completely satisfactory. The enemy has thrown in all his mobile reserves, and this is his last major offensive effort in this war. This Corps will halt that effort; then attack and smash him.”

    Fuckin DOPE

    I certainly wouldn’t want to be remembered like or compared to MacArthur in any way at all. It’s funny he’s thought of as a God of War there, probably should be a god of death. Cuz if he had his way that entire Peninsula would have been wiped out by nuclear weapons.

      Sounds to me like pretty standard deity behavior, better sacrifice some virgins or shit to avoid his nuclear wrath

    MacArthur, obviously, because I have a vague idea who that was (it’s the guy from that song about a park, or something).
    I have no idea who Ridgway was, or Grand Admiral Thrawn for that matter ( sounds like something from a Star Trek or idk)

    I don’t want to be remembered at all. If I’m being remembered, it means that I’m dead
