Forum Game: FMHL

Postby InsaneFool » 25 Apr 2009, 10:39

The latest rage right now is a site called FML (or F*** My Life), its basically a site where people post their embarrassing life stories for the venting purposes/enjoyment of others.

I was waiting for the bus one day and wondered how awesome it would be to have an FML type log of all the historical f*** ups. Hence "FMHL" or F*** My Historical Life.
The object is basically just make up a FML entry for a historical figure (known or anonymous) for their colossal f*** ups that created history as we know it. The next person guesses what it event its about, and then posts their own.

I'll get the ball rolling:

So I was at work today and figured I'd play a prank on my buddy who was filling up the ship. So I took the He canisters, removed the e, and painted it on the H canisters...it was gonna be awesome, but he didn't notice and filled 'er up anyways. I completely forgot about it until I heard over the radio what happened on May 6th...FMHL

I'm guessing that we're talking about the hindenburg, but it was my understanding that german airships used hydrogen intentionally, not by mistake.

And hydrogen was used because it was much cheaper than helium at the time.

Indeed. Originally it was designed to use Helium, but due to trade embargoes by the US (where the majority of the world's Helium came from, and the only country that produced enough to fill a zeppelin. In fact, one of the American zeppelins, when it was first commissioned, was not only the largest single source of helium, but actually contained over 50% of produced helium in the world at the time. So the Germans had to re-design it, and they'd had plenty of success with hydrogen balloons in the past, and saw no problem with it. The extra lift let them put in a couple extra rooms too.


Also: History is made by stupid people.

Okay, so it was a bad example. I failed to do enough research on the matter...but the game still stands...I guess it would be Matt's turn.

Since Matt's not here:

I was doing a spot of hunting. I found a great spot but four people told me I couldn't shoot there and suggested somewhere else. I just love a moving target, it really tests the skills. Bang, bang, bang.

So, I was sick of Austria being the world's biggest douchebags, overtaking Serbia and then having the balls to send their Archduke driving round town in an open-top car, so I shot him in the back of the head, and downed a vial of cyanide. Turns out, the cyanide was shoddy and only made me throw up. I got arrested and now there's a war. FMHL

Here's one...

I was meeting with my boss at a local hotel. She was accusing me of stealing money from her fan club. I don't know why she didn't believe me when I said that I didn't do it. So I shot her. FMHL.
