"Spartans, Tonight We Blog In Hell!"
300 was happiness. Spartans were ass-kickers. And notably, pretty much all of the Persian armies wore pants, again contributing to my theory that perhaps this is why they were ultimately pwned by the Spartans at Thermopylae. Except for Xerxes, who in the movie spent his time wearing a very golden codpiece...which might explain why he was able to dodge Ledonias' spear instead of using it as a fancy (albeit fatal) new eyepiece.
So there you have it: pants destroyed an empire.
(I swear, one of these days, history professors are going to hunt me down and sac-beat me.)
Today's Lesson: you can never really trust the prophetic rantings of a drunken, underage oracle.
