When you hate (at least) 90% of the people in your school, workplace, etcetera, and plot with one (1) trusted friend that is also in the same situation to burn them all at the stake in an aesthetic display.
As Charles wrote the lyrics to the "Hit or Miss" tiktok on the board for the eighth time, Nicole and I looked at each other and just said, 'burnening'.
We hated everyone in that place, so we commenced the burnening. Now they're all dead!

Get the The burning of young mug.A period of early modern European history (spanning from the 1400s to the middle 1600s) during which there was an increased paranoia and thus hysteria that there were witches practicing forms of vice to harm the people... and these "witches" were thus tried and executed for it.
Contrary to many pagan sources, the death toll of nine million people, almost exclusively women, who were trying to keep their indigenous pre-Christian religions alive, is about as real as the Blair Witch Project; records show that somewhere between 50,000 and 300,000 people were tried (and about 48% of them executed) on charges of witchcraft.
The loss of nine million people would severely have crippled society. And those tried and executed were, by and large, Christians who asked for God to save them; anybody with strange quirks, liberal views, red hair, suspicious skin marks (freckles, birthmarks, moles, warts, etc), animal companions, or some difference that called attention, you were suspect. You were especially vulnerable if you were a woman, but roughly 25% of the victims were men (virtually all of Iceland's accused were men).
And many countries were virtually untouched by the this frenzy; Ireland saw only four "witches" executed while Russia saw ten executions; Germany, Switzerland, and eastern France saw the most hysteria.

The second most popular book of the Burning Times (after the Bible) was the Malleus Maleficarum ("The Witch's Hammer"), an absolutely humorless and misogynistic guide to "finding witches".
Southwestern Germany saw the worst of the Burning Times; Wurzburg saw several hundred executed through the late 1620s, including several priests and a number of children.
There were allegedly towns, largely in Germany, where there were no women left after the Inquisitors came through.

Get the The Burning Times mug.An inner circle of legend-status figures that fight crime and get laid by the hour. The Bunnings Corp is the tightest brotherhood according to human knowledge and each member is as talented and omnipotent as the last.
"The Bunnings Corp -- even I don't know who the actual members are. Are they financial, political or military leaders?"

Get the The Burning Jungle mug.Easily one of the best and most original history-themed F2P MMORPG games in the market. Taking place during the most glorious hour of pirate history in the Caribbean, You get to choose between a total of four factions (Pirate Nation, Great Britain, Spain and France) and five classes (two for pirates, three for empires). Features historically accurate and realistic sword-fights, naval warfare and economy. Severely underrated because history isn't as appealing as high fantasy.
As a history nut and a big fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie trilogy, I totally digged Pirates of the Burning Sea. How many MMOs out there feature realistic naval battles?

Get the pirates of the burning sea mug.When a man gathers his Best bros and gathers all the stuff an ex-Girlfriend gave him and they have a ceremonial burning. Usually while this happens you tell manly stories or talk about manly topics or talk about girls.
Guy 1: Hey tonight we are having the burning
Guy 2: Who's stuff we burning?
Guy 1: Oh just my ex-girlfriends.
