Albert Einstien: Boffed Marilyn Monroe or not?

Albert Einstien: Boffed Marilyn Monroe or not?
You bet your fucking ass he did. Twice.
The first time was in Berlin in 1933. After that, they both emigrated to the United States to run from Hitler and his army of MechaHitlers to the promised land of dirty old men boinking young women. Then she ran off with that cocksucker Joe DiMaggio. The end.

What are some examples of kinky fun time in different historical cultures? I mean, I hear that flogging has pretty much always been popular. What are some kinks that we'd find really bizarre?

You would think it was Buzz Aldrin, but in actuality, it was a monkey named Zimbo that was rocked up there in 1939 by the Nazis. Ever see "Iron Sky"? That moon base is the real deal, they colonized the moon with apes first to ensure that humans could handle it. That and Lithuanians.

Queen Hatshepsut. Remember that beard on all of her statues? Yeahhhhh...

Roger Waters.
QuoteAlso, Marie Curie. Genius? Party girl? Both?
Marie Curie was a member of the Chi Upsilon Nu Tau sorority at the University of Indiana at Perdue in 1989. She was notorious for entering wet t-shirt contests on Sink or Swim Tuesdays, and was known for that thing she did with her tongue, so says the Brother Fraternity members from Eta Epsilon Alpha Delta.

Some cultures enjoyed piercing their genitalia with stingray spines. I'm not making that shit up.
Quote from: Queen Gogira Pennyworth, BSW on August 26, 2013, 09:55:45 PM
Which medieval ruler was the biggest dick?
Pope Boniface VIII.
I could name a bazillion medieval assholes, but that guy...THAT FUCKING GUY. Nepotism like whoa, and would excommunicate anyone who looked at him funny in attempt to be Pope-Emperor. This failed, and he died after getting beaten half to death by the King of France's cronies, and the result was the Avignon Papacy. That's actually true also. Sometimes, the truth is funnier than fiction.

What was on the first sandwich?
Quote from: Cain on August 27, 2013, 02:46:59 PM
What was Albrecht von Wallenstein's power level?
It would be too easy to say over 9000, the correct answer is over 3 million, because Lithuania invented Bohemia, the 30 Years War, and bad Elizabethan neckruffs. They did not, however, invent the Habsburgs. They invented themselves over years of very inclusive, controlled experiments.
Quote from: Queen Gogira Pennyworth, BSW on August 27, 2013, 02:57:34 PM
What was on the first sandwich?
Hot pastrami and brown mustard. The man clearly knew what he was doing when he invented it. Just think, if the Italians got to it first, we'd all be stuck thinking bologna and cheese was the epitome. Gross.

Of course he was. Us historians do not fuck around when it comes to delicious foods. I have his recipe for elderberry marmalade SOMEWHERE...
Quote from: LMNO, PhD (life continues) on August 27, 2013, 03:53:21 PM
Are the costumes as represented in Game of Thrones period?
More period than the Tudors.
The King's Landing wrapped dresses are based on an 11th Century Byzantine design of a court dancer. Clearly the costume designers know their Tom Tierney coloring books very well.

When I was larping in germany this august I saw zillions of these accessories - little religious tracts fastened to armor using wax stamps. Did this come from Warhammer? Or did warhammer borrow it from history?

This is what happens when game designers watch too much anime and other shit and think that scrolls are cool.
Ancient Jews did do something like this, but it was folded and put into an amulet or small bag they wore at all times. They also had to write it themselves. There was nothing like this in the Middle Ages as far as I know.
I think it's cool as FUCK.
IMO, wearing a visible scroll attached to your body like this would make you a target. Because literacy meant you had money, and money meant ransom.
