Yea...

So I go to this university and I'm about to graduate. For that to occur though, I HAVE to take this particular writing course. I'm a science guy so I sort of brushed this off... ANYWAYS, we're doing a unit on persuasion. In conclusion, we watched Bill Maher's Religulous. This one guy and I were in the corner conversing (NOT KISSING DAMMIT) and laughing at some of the religious nonsense that happens in today's society.

After class was finished, I got my shit, walked outside and started to leave. It just so happens that corner guy was heading out in my direction as well and we walked together. For some reason, we started talking about Religulous again. Just basic banter about the movie. What was odd is that this conversation gave me the impression he wasn't very religious... at all. Maybe it was the fact that he was making fun of it and telling me how stupid it was... yeah. But then something happened, something pushed a button, IDK but he ended up saying he did indeed have a religion. Blown out of my mind, I questioned, "Wut?" He said he was into polytheism... I'm like, "So he must believe in spirits and shit right? I've seen Highlander, this can potentially be badass!" But then I realized letstatdark was also one of those things... That's when I started getting concerned.

Jokingly, I said something along the lines of "Ah, so you believe in Greek gods? HA! If you ever want to see how the story ends, play God of War 3!" That did not go over very well...

I shit you not he looked at me and said, "No, Norse."

My reaction:

I really though he was joking around so I responded, "WTF are you doing at school then, shouldn't you be killing dragons or something?!" Again nothing...

At this point, I wasn't sure what to say. He had a bike helmet with him for some reason and I dug my hole deeper by saying, "Shouldn't there be horns on that thing?"

After that last remark, the guy started debating that horns on 'his ancestor's helmet' was an invention of the modern times and was ,quite simply, never a viking characteristic.

...

How the fuck do I end this? It really just ends there... I don't know what to say other than today I met a viking

Vikings still a live and well , i mean i attracted ALOT of vikings when i made this video unintionally , some of them are arguing about religions.

i seriously made it when i was bored, and some people think i'm a viking for real O_o;

but i've never met one in real life, though i've met , christians , jews, muslims, pagans, wikkans (does that count as pagan?) , hindus , buddhists.

edit : and oh yeah , the horns are just myth, they never wore horns (my source is an angry viking in that video i made )

during especially tense or awkwards moments the best course of action is usually to lean in and kiss them.

Ah, this reminds me of the first time I was maced... Good times

Are you sure it wasn't lestatdark?

The revival of Odinism is one of my favorite religious happenings in the past century.

Just as likely to be right as any other religion. Any other kind of thinking is just plain self rightous.

Hey guys, don't get me wrong

I don't dislike the vikings... In fact, I think they're awesome!

(Don't rape and pillage me plz)

Gotta love Vikings.

Though the guest singer looks kinda retarded in this video lol.

cool story bro
