Columbus Mosaic: Word Cultures Homework in Short

Basically, we had to read this stupid packet for World Cultures about the different countries that landed in America! This was when Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492 with Nina, Pinta, and Sainta Maria. But, apparently, Mr. Columbus isn't the great hero guy that we all sang about in elementary school. He's Mr. Let's Kill Some Indians to Get Some Land! I don't know about you, but that just totally killed my childhood.

So how exactly did the Spanish form colonies in the Americas? Basically, they "mingle" -cough- rape -cough- with Native women and create little Spanish Native children. Aww, now ain't that cute? Here's more. How did the French colonize Canada? They brought over French whores and the guys married the women to reproduce. So they multiplied and multiplied and multipied and died. Fun fun. Apparently, the French marry young and produce tons. Guys, this is what protection is for. Use it!

Then we have the English. Now, the English people decided, "Hey, let's send lots of people over to the Americas so we could dominate!" And guess what? It worked! Two points for the English. But then they killed the Indians. That's fun too? I guess?

But, to summarize it all, our lovely America began with Spanish people tricking Native Americans and killing them for land. Now, is that how we want to view America? When I was a little child, I used to think, "America is like the land for freedom, right? It's the best place on Earth." And now look where we are! We're in a war for oil! You know what would totally save our gas prices? If you people in the trucks and hummers go switch for a little tiny Civic. What's the use of driving those huge cars if you're not lugging around an elephant on a day to day basis? Really, people, small and compact is the way to go!

Also, while I'm still rambling about how stupid humans are, let's talk about cell phones. Did you know that you could get brain problems from talking too much on the cell phone? That's right. All that radiation from the phone can't be too good for you. So get off that little device and learn to talk to people face to face.

Back to cars! I don't know about you, but if it's not blizzarding (Yes, that is a word. If it's not, then I proclaim that it is.) outside, then you should forget the car and just walk! Or bike! Or scooter! Or do some exercise. I'm tired of watching those, "Loose a hundred pounds now!" commericals on TV. Can't you guys just get the point and realize that eating an expensive meal won't help you loose weight? Get your butt off that couch and move! Also, by walking instead of driving, you will save a lot of gas and energy! ATP, not gasoline, everyone!

Lastly, I'd like to say to everyone that, if anyone in this post has offended you, then I apologize. You have your own opinions. I have mine. We don't all think alike, and there are different views on different situations. Go along on your own way and follow your heart. Don't listen to me. And now, I must depart to go to sleep or else I will have to strangle someone tomorrow morning. Good night!
