darkie 143 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 thats an example of "hubris" wich is extreme arrogrance usaully associated with the upper classes, examples are assuming the titanic wouldnt sink,thinking an old fashioned horseback cavarly charge could overcome machinegunners and the french knights at agincourt refusing to belive the english common man could be displined enough to remain in ranks under attack Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scothunter 12,609 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 A yank general when told that there would be no winner going to war with Russia. Statistics would forecast 95% of Russia wiped out, And America 75% he said well we won and I for one would do it now lol. They reckon we came close to it a col times during the 80s, but thankfully they weren't total whack jobs lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
