I fucking hate Columbus day.

Let's pop open the diaraies of his crew mates and him and do a read a loud, then! Let's talk about it.

I passionately hate Christopher Columbus and the worship of him.

    I also despise the fact that it's a national holiday here in the States. I'm not even sure precisely what it is that we're celebrating.

    I mean if we're going to commemorate explorers why not Marco Polo or Ponce de Leon or Lief Erikson.
