Since humans have a way of telling stories that makes another group the bad guys, most stories are too good to be true stories, whether they are stories you hear often about triumphant European groups, or stories about the triumph of other groups than Europeans.
If the (American) Indians had invaded and took over Europe, the stories of the triumph of their human spirit would sound like bullshit to Europeans because they would know it was the way the Indians were telling history. The Indians would also know the dehumanized European stories of survival and oppression in the Indian's new world were bullshit too, since any group of humans can tell a too good to be true story, making another group sound like the most inhuman pieces of shit that ever lived, the bible has plenty of them. The reality is each and every group is as human and as inhuman as the next, there is no more or less human group, not the oppressor, not the oppressed. There are no innocent, pure humans, innocent applies only to animals. Groups of oppressed people have also raped, tortured, and killed each other, and members of other groups, even if plenty of bad shit happened to them too, no matter how good a movie/book makes their group or their story look. If an American Indian or an Aboriginie tells a story, their audience shouldn't not question the full story because it was told by a rare living member of an Indian or Aboriginie group because their group is few in numbers, any more than they shouldn't not question a story told by an Anglo-Saxon.

Get the Too good to be true story mug.She was the most dangerous kind of mama's girl, the kind that would cut you, kill you, or even dress up as the superhero on the good guy's side, then kill you, all to prove she was not a mama's girl.

Get the Mama's girl mug.Whether somebody called you a favorite for rookie of the year, or for an unlikely trip to the playoffs, any time an opponent has thrown the game or rigged the system to blow you off course, you never had much of a chance, no matter what you did with the slim chance you had.
When you're going against a thrown game every season, the real underdog was always you. The real favorite was always the other guy.

Get the Mastermind mug.Little did the first husband know he would be the first of 30 for the 30 husband bachelorette. He also didn't know when he moved to the state of Metah that beheadings were the state capital punishment, and that she would have him and 5 other husbands beheaded over time.

Get the 30 husband bachelorette mug.The kind of stand an idiot took instead of taking one when they had a chance to be a freakin genius.
Chris coulda been the next Einstein but he got combative with a guy he knew and it wound up being his last stand. 22 years old, fucked up.

Get the Last stand mug.Emotional repression is a way females try and come off as tough, badass, and charming without coming off as weak. Females who think that kindness is weakness tend to think that emotional repression is the way to go.
The girl child had now mastered emotional repression and was sure that people would quit being mean to her in her new tough, badass, and charming facade.
