If you thought you didn't want to live on this planet due to the last few weeks, the hatred looks like it's about to get even worse for you. Why? The Summer Olympics in Rio are about to be underway, of course. With the political turmoil and corruption going on in Brazil right now, what could possibly go wrong?

Oh, boy, this could get interesting. The Olympic Village has been so well-constructed that the toilets are often blocked, wiring is exposed and water leaks are commonplace. The Australian Olympic teams and Hope Solo are among people that are refusing to go anywhere near there for fear of their health and safety.

The part you need to know about is how the mayor of Rio responded. With no sense of irony whatsover, he offered them a kangaroo to make them feel more at home at the Village. Because a kangaroo is going to fix the plumbing and electrical issues the place has.

This may or may not be a complete and utter shitshow, but it's something to definitely keep an eye on in the coming weeks.
 
I'll say this though, I was really surprised by Hungary I had no idea they were so competitive in the Olympics but they always seemed to be on the podium.
Its literally the only proud moments of their nations bitter existance. Roman rule, Byzantine rule, Austrian rule, Nazi occupation, and Soviet satalite.
And also fucking Poland man everytime I saw a results list why yall always in last...just stay home man that shit was embarrassing
Why else do you think the Germans were able to kill so many of them?

When it comes to great Atilla's conquests, the only people of relevence were the Hunnic people themselves, or the people with the big enough balls to fight them.

Are you retarded or do they teach you nothing in history books? Its Mongol Empire, Ottomans, Austrians and Soviets, you dumb imbecile. How hard it is to google really? Romans? Byzantine? Hungary did not even exist 500 years after Roman Empire ended, holy shit Chris chan is smarter than you.

What, will next the Romans be responsible for the genocide of native Americans?

I mean... ROMANS? What the fuck!?!?!?! Holy shit dude, you need to be sent back to school right now! I need a drink. I need all the drinks I can get.

Okey, sorry, that was too harsh. I apologize, I misunderstood the thing.
But really, nope, no romans. Nor Byzantines. Please understand, that is like if I said :

"But the United States was invaded by General Stalin from Mexico in the Civil War of 1861 but president Bush managed to bomb the Mexican elephant riders back to the border with the help of his favourite parrot, Rosevelt."

I'm sorry for inflicting that mental imagine upon everybody. And if I said that about US history I would be totally deserving of 999 dumb ratings from every American on the site.

Also, the connection between Huns and Hungarians is something that divides the scientific community. There may have been relation, but that is more like cousins than descendants at best, and a lot of the hun-hungarian relation was done by romantic writers in the 18-19th centuries that have very little basis in historical fact.
The english word hungarian comes from I think "onogor" or "eight tribes" in I think.. maybe turkish? We call ourselves "magyar" and it is a common and understandable misconception that HUNs and HUNgarians are the same.
But I'm afraid that's mostly a myth. There maybe was some distant relation, but there is no direct descendantness. The hungarians took their land from slavic tribes who lived there.

And if I'm here to educate, I'll also say a few other pieces.

Scientists claim that Finnish and Hungarian people are related, but this is rather disputed because the sentence structure is so different. But it is propable.

There has been a big mess in the last... twenty or so years that hungarians are releated to the ancient mesopotamians because their language structure was remarkably consitant with ours.
But almost all scientists discredit this as pseudo science, based on a coincidence in linguistics. So nope, we are not part Scorpion King, it is just something our far right people yell to make them feel more "anchuent peophle" in Chris's phrase.
