Author Topic: What was the most destructive disaster in history? (POLL)  (Read 4491 times)

For reference, that's about 100 million people. Over two entire continents. Dead.
A decaRiddler of death.
And it's not even on the poll.
I wouldn't take what is/isn't on the poll to be indicative of anything, as it's a clusterforget of near-random disasters of completely incomparable scales of destruction and time, as well as non-disaster events like acts of war.

It's just a shambles. The real value of the topic is in the discussion.

Chile's earthquake. I felt it in Buenos Aires. That was some heavy stuff.



why are you typing in that font

I find it a bit creative to be talking in another font rather than the normal one. Also, aren't you glad that I don't speak in Wingdings?



this is the worst disaster in history, hands down

I find it a bit creative to be talking in another font rather than the normal one. Also, aren't you glad that I don't speak in Wingdings?
It's quite distracting, and even a little uncomfortable to read such a harder and smaller font amongst the sea of regular font.
It would be quite appreciated if you didn't write in a different font, and found an alternate way to express your creativity.

The "I Have A Dream"speech


The emancipation proclamation was a hip-hop song
