Bonfire Night & Avatar · 9:23pm Nov 5th, 2015
Oh look, it's Bonfire Night also known as Guy Fawkes Night!
And when I say drunk, I mean moderately sick by eating too many hot dogs and going temporarily blind by staring into the heart of a bonfire for too long.
At least that's how I spend Bonfire Night.
Also, I'll be using the Starswirl avatar during November. Thank you to everyine who voted and have a pleasant day/morning/afternoon/evening.

Sadly, I didn't eat hotdogs today.
I did eat a sub sandwich from Debonairs, though!
I did not sit by a bonfire, but I did... Well, nothing else really... Except exams... Why Britain? Why you make such annoying and bias exam?!
3522880 Because the Education Secretary does fuck all.
3522886 Yep. Sounds about right.
Remember, remember the fifth of November
The Gunpowder treason and plot
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot
Happy Treason Day my British brothers/sisters!

3523131 That last one though. I don't if I should laugh or- ah fuck it. I laugh at Frankie Boyle so I'm already going to hell.
3523150 I'm pretty sure it's okay to laugh at the foolish concept of racial superiority/inferiority that likely led to this military defeat/humiliation. And if not...to hell with it, I'm laughing
3523162 Still, innocent lives were taken. Those soldiers were simply following orders and the indigenous people defending their homes.
3523168 No war is a good war friend. Indeed, lives were lost that should not have been. But in addition to making us laugh, this cartoon could make us think. Make us think about of some people actually believed this and lives were lost because of it. We reflect on it, perhaps even mock it, and in doing so we learn from it and hopefully won't repeat it.
3523178 It was the belief of William Golding, author of Lord of the Flies, that all people are capable of evil. The underlying evil within man in it's inherited human nature. And I can agree to that to some point. We like to think we're a good race and people, saying we always to help each other. Jew, gentile, black man, white. And yet we live in a world so full of recurring evil. Mugabe, Isis, behind the scenes corruption and acts by our own governments, it's abhorrent.
3523207 In this sense I find myself both optimist and cynic. I am optimistic in that I believe in the potential of humanity; I believe in the greatness that we can be, the potential that we all have to do amazing things. But I am cynical in that I know what we are; I know what we are now, what we have been, and what we most likely will be for the foreseeable future.
I'm a juicy contradiction!
