“Top 10 Pranks That Went Too Far” compilation where #1 is Liu Bang founding the Han Dynasty

People are asking what this means, so:
Liu Bang was a provincial constable (basically a sheriff) in Classical China who one day was transporting some prisoners who escaped. The penalty for allowing prisoners to escape was death, so my man looked at his prospects and said “welp, in for a penny, in for a pound” and decided to go join up with the dudes who’d been his prisoners 5 minutes ago. This kicked off a chain of events that led to him becoming a bandit chief and eventually a rebel general and ended with him overthrowing the Qin dynasty and becoming Emperor Gaozu of Han.
Sometimes i think about like, how many great games would exist if moble games were designed to be good instead of just suck you dry of cash
sometimes I think about what we could do if hundreds of thousands of brilliant world changing engineers had work to do other than making you click on a link so a company pays another company 0.003¢
it’s fucked up that Google has an incredibly detailed archive of basically the most important cultural artefact in history and uses it solely to sell you just whatever random shit right? is that just me?
I realize I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed. I can be slow on the uptake, or things will just go over my head entirely. People have to tell me things I’m too dense to pick up on. It’s fine.
