Superweapons older than your mom

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Something Awful’s Comedy Goldmine yesterday focused on ancient superweapons: the Godendag, Helepolis, Mongolian Whistling Arrows, and the Great Turkish Bombard are the ones that stick out to me. Check out the article for more.

The Godendag is a big fucking wooden stick with a spikes on the knobbed end. Flemish farmers wielded it, defending their lands from the French attempting to take over their properties. The name comes from the greeting “good day,” which the b’dass farmers said to the knights as they bashed her brains to bits.

B’dass is not French for “bad ass motherfucker.”

Going to the beach or pool is a scandalous time for females. Trendy bathing suits barely cover intimate areas. Check out Wholesome Wear for better coverage.

I wondered if Mennonite girls went to pools and got to swim. Now I know! They do!

Are you gonna bark all day, little doggie?
