The Ugly Past

The following is a "history" collected by teachers throughout the United States, from eighth grade through college level. Read carefully, and you will learn a lot of incorrect information.

The inhabitants of ancient Egypt were called mummies. They lived in the Sarah Dessert and traveled by Camelot. The climate of the Sarah is such that the inhabitants have to live elsewhere, so areas of the dessert are cultivated by irritation. The Egyptians built the Pyramids in the shape of a huge triangular cube. The Pyramids are a range of mountains between France and Spain.

The government of England was a limited mockery. Henry VIII found walking difficult because he had an abbess on his knee. Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen." As a queen she was a success. When Elizabeth exposed herself before her troops, they all shouted, "hurrah." Then her navy went out and defeated the Spanish Armadillo.

During the Renaissance America began. Christopher Columbus was a great navigator who discovered America while cursing about the Atlantic. His ships were called the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Fe (many of you might not know this, but his third ship is called Santa MARIA). Later, the Pilgrims crossed the Ocean, and this was known as Pilgrims Progress. When they landed at Plymouth Rock, they were greeted by the Indians, who came down the hill rolling their war hoops before them. The Indian squabs carried porpoises on their back. Many of the Indian heroes were killed, along with their cabooses, which proved very fatal for them. The winter of 1620 was a hard one for the settlers. Many people died and many babies were born. Captain John Smith was responsible for all this.Abraham Lincoln became America's greatest president. Lincoln's mother died in infancy, and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his own hands. When Lincoln was President, he wore only a tall silk hat. He said, "In onion there is strength." Abraham Lincoln wrote the Gettysburg address while traveling from Washington to Gettysburg on the back of an envelope. He also freed the slaves by signing the Emasculation Proclamation, and the Fourteenth Amendment gave the ex-Negroes citizenship. But the Clue Clux Clan (this is in no way related to Abraham Lincoln) would torcher and lynch the ex-Negroes and other innocent victims. It claimed it represented law and odor. On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the theater and got shot in his seat by one of the actors in a moving picture show (if you are confused, a moving picture is an animation, so the actor could not have assassinated Lincoln unless he jumped out of the animation). The believed assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a supposingly insane actor. This ruined Booth's career.

Bach was the most famous composer in the world, and so was Handel. Handel was half German, half Italian, and half English. He was very large. Bach died from 1750 to the present. Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this.


I am not responsible if you have stored any incorrect information in your head. The author here apologises for any inconveniences. Perhaps you either try brainwashing yourself or get Yi Cai to sue me.

*Here's the catch : Almost every sentence has a mistake in it. The reds are just a few obscured favourites. You might need an encyclopedia for that matter (or for other sentences). I can't make everything red, right? If you didn't notice that pyramids were called "a range of mountains", or that Christopher Columbus was "cursing about the Atlantic" when he was supposed to be "cruising about the Atlantic", whack yourself on the head. As for Clue Clux Clan, I need someone to educate me.
Academicians, have a good laugh.

WOW. Where did you get such "EDUCATIONAL" information from? It was soooo interesting to know that Abraham Lincoln was killed by a cartoon character acted by a "surprisingly insane" actor named Booth. Wow. LOL XD

Haha. Blame Captain John Smith for that matter. I hold him responsible. =D

And yes, education has never been more interesting. In fact, I find emotional solace to know that there are worst things to learn about than Malaysian education...

About the Clue Clux Clan: It's actually the Ku Klux Klan. It was founded after the American Civil War.
