Custer was more arrogant than stupid. he was the only general in the American civil war to beat Jeb Stewart's cavalry . It was pretty dumb to charge into an Indian town and leave the Gatling guns behind though .
So whats your prob? Not only do people accumulate fame for dumb things they do. Thats what the song obviously states. You would also have to be pretty stupid in some way to consider yourself as important as many historical persons did consider themselves. But only this ignorance, arrogance und stubbornness enabled them to achieve their deeds. Just try to imagine a Temüdjin - better known for his title: Djengis Khan - not possessed by the insane drive to conquer the world.
@Nervmichblossnet One of my problems that I may or may not have had just drank like 20 coffees. But that's besides the point.
I saw many true things with the song. The way you said your original comment implied that more things were untrue than true. I realize now that that is not true.
columbus tried to find an alternate route to asia cuz the waterway spain used to use was taken by another country. he tried to sail around africa but ended up going west. either way, its stupid. it didnt benefit spain at all
Apparently people still don't know that Marie Antoinette is NOT the person who said "Let them eat cake." It was actually said by a French Duchess nearly forty years before the revolution, and before Marie was actually born.
Oh well. Those jokes about the dislikes are fun to read, and to write. Sometimes the jokes just don't work. Thanks for pointing that out, anyway (I'm not being sarcastic -- it's good to know which of your jokes aren't funny).
Oh gosh, I have to tell my friends about this song. I want to show it to my government teacher (which I no longer have this year because I was switched to economics this semester), but I don't want him to be even more displeased with me... (I slacked off in his class...) Well, thanks for making me smile with this video!! ^w^
The Arrogant Worms are coming to Merritt in March 2011! I have just got to see them. I know it will be a blast! Love that song and their take on things!!!
It wasn't the gas that was the problem. The Hindenburg was coated with waterproofing that had the same chemical composition as ROCKET FUEL. THAT was what caught fire first. (That was covered up by Germany--- because they realized that hey, it WOULD make nifty rocket fuel....and they didn't want the secret to get out before they could launch a few rockets into England.)
Whoo~ "General Custer's a national hero for not knowing when to run" hahaha, HISTORY IS MADE BY STUPID PEOPLE~ Man, i love this song! SO DO SOMETHING DUMB BEFORE YOU DIE~
"So if your sons and daughters seem too lazy. Sitting 'round and watching bad TV. Just remember you should be quite grateful, at least they aren't out making history." Genius!
hmm do i know any history teachers or historians i could send this to? isnt that something dumb to do? hmm lol lol lol

Actually, saint Brendan was the first non native ti find the Americas
Columbus was still a butt head
America was named after a guy named amerigo Vespucci who proved it's another continent
Columbus didn't even prove the world was round
His discovery didn't prove it and it had been proven by greek mathmeticians
