Badass of the Week
Misc01/02/09Tirinus If you weren't traumatised by history in school you might have caught on that it's awesome, full of heroes, greatness and otherwise badass people ready to prove who is the most awesome of all. However, there is a problem, history is stupidly long and most of us can't be bothered to go through it all to find those choice moments of heroism or acts of supreme badassery.So what do we do? Fortunately someone has done this for us and created Badass of the Week and in an expletive laden style shows us exactly why these men and women deserve the title of Badass. Our author takes us through a little history, the badass' key achievements and lasting legacy while leaving out the crap and otherwise boring bits to bring us distilled awesome.
Who does he honour? Everyone. Legendary military heroes like Alexander the Great scientists like Nikola Tesla and even the common man like John Henry who through feats of determination, grit and raw talent prove themselves greater than everyone and indomitable badasses.
If the full list contains too much purified excellence then a couple more examples are in order. The Viking at Stamford Bridge, who held off an army, Jeanne Hachette, a peasant girl who turned the tide of a battle and, Voytek the Soldier Bear an "alcoholic Nazi-fighting bear" who worked as hard as any soldier and even caught a spy.
These are nothing but a tiny sample of the brilliance that Badass of the Week holds. Go and read it now!
