I am reliably informed by This Very Wiki that the Aztecs considered being sacrificed an honor. So that's something.
Yeah, if I recall correctly,the winning team in their ballgame matches woul be sacrificed to the gods as an utmost honor. Would make watching football a lot more interesting, that's for sure.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.That's not what Road To El Dorado told me!
I thought that took place in South America ? I mean I had the impression what with all the mountains

Nah, the movie was set in Central America. Being fictional, El Dorado has been placed anywhere from Mexico to Chile.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.And some places in Southwest US. Something about the houses looking like gold from far away. The fun thing about a myth is you don't have to be all that accurate, according to filmmakers.
Anyway, I guess I would be making characters based on that golden guy, only I would be more PC on account of not being from the nineteen forties.
Granted, "thousand martyred Aztecs" does sound cool the more I say it.
Hm. It looks like 300 of my 620 Nintendo coins are going to expire soon, so I need to get something. But I don't know what? The cheapest stuff that I'd actually want are Kirby's Epic Yarn patches. There's an Animal Crossing pouch I guess I could use to hold my dice. And a Luigi pouch, but I already have a pouch to hold my stuff. The shirt's the best thing to get, but it's 550 coins.

...Hm. I ordered some Fudge dice, and they came into the mail. The dice are fine, but the plastic tube they're in is cracked at the bottom. Should I do anything about this? It's not a huge deal, but it might be something to ask about.

Probably not worth the trouble.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.Probably. I should find a better way to hold all these dice.
Happy Easter everyone!
Happy spring fertility festival!

Happy get stoned and sleep in a governer's car day!
GUYS. I like rum. It's great. What's not great is the backed up pipes and shit coming up into our tub and shower that inspired the need for rum.
What, by itself?

Ugh. I only just found out about a Cal Arts thing happening this Summer at VAPA that all my friends were going to, and it's due tomorrow at 5. It's 10 now. And I can't complete this application because I'm pretty sure I've never actually done a relevant arts class.
Ugh.
Well, at least now I know where to get the comics. I picked up Saga yesterday. Someone tell me if it's any good.
I've heard its very good but I've only read the first couple issues. I enjoyed what I've read so far.

Forever liveblogging the AvengersSaga is fucking excellent. I say everyone should read it.
Ok so I ordered a 3DS with a special cover. Of the Triforce. And now I need to get an SD card so I can play Pokemon.
I really want a 3DS
I posted a picture of my younger self on tumblr.
ppppppppfeiufiofuiorjfadkfbnjkdflaosigjbkghuiafjkldjnbaghkdAre you downloading as part of that promotion or something?
3DS's are neat. I ordered Kirby: Triple Deluxe because I realized that it's been way too long since I played Kirby and because I just remembered that I like Kirby.

Kirby is awesome and kick ass.
Well, I was thinking of making that part of the story just some stupid or racist shit that he made up and the character who inherits his power has to figure out the real story. Gives me an excuse to use the mythical land of Lemuria, which I can make up entirely since there's no actual evidence of it.
Could still use the "blood of a thousand brave warriors" though. It'd give the magical girl thing a very bloody kick, wouldn't it?
Mind you I don't know much about the Aztecs. I'm thinking the creators of this character knew even less. Did Aztecs even believe in martyrdom? What would count as martyrdom? Futilly fighting the conquistadors? These are the questions doing comics makes me ask, folks.
