  The story was so unhinged, Oversimplified became unhinged.

  I feel kinda bad for Pickett honestly. Yeah, he was a bit of an idiot, but most things associated with that came from higher-ups ordering him to do it. Even Pickett’s Charge was General Lee’s idea. Pickett himself said it was a terrible idea, but was forced to do it anyway.

  Oversimplified: &nbsp;&quot;That would be a completely fair compromise that protects the interest of both parties.&quot;<br>Chelzor: &nbsp;&quot;But have you considered GET FUCKED?&quot;<br><br>Chelzor, I love that response so much that I think I may start USING it IRL!!!

  I forgot about the part where he shows how many people live in each country.<br>At first I didn&apos;t believe it, but yeah, there are around 40M Canadians compared to around 330M US Americans.<br>Dang, Poland is just around the corner in terms of population numbers. I was not expecting that.<br>Really shows how you can&apos;t guess the number of people living in a country. I find this fascinating.

  There was also a war that started over a water bucket called war of the bucket. The War of the Bucket is a conflict that took place in northern Italy&apos;s Emilia-Romagna region in 1325. The war was part of a larger, 300-year struggle between the Guelphs and the Ghibellines, and is often associated with the theft of a bucket from a Bolognese well by Modenese soldiers. However, most accounts say that the bucket was actually taken as a trophy after the war, and that the war was declared because Modena captured the Bolognese castle of Monteveglio

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irMsc4eoSng&amp;t=333">5:33</a> That would be B-2&apos;s. They&apos;re the iconic flying wing stealth bomber we created in the 80&apos;s and recently made a successor to with the B-21, though the B-2&apos;s are staying in service since they&apos;re still pretty good and we have invested a LOT into that design.<br>The B-52 is the conventional looking 8 engine brute from the 50&apos;s that has remained in service so long that one has seen 3 generations of the same family serve on it.<br><br>I&apos;m a big nerd for military planes. Cold War especially.

  Somehow, the stupidest of things led to some of the most important wars in human history.
