He would plan to invade it during the winter, but it would take him such a long time to get there, it would be in the middle of summer when the invasion actually started
If you can’t beat Russia in less than 6 months, retreat. The winter is too cold, and spring is too wet. This causes it it also be very humid, which is perfect for diseases.

There is what is basically a prayer at the back. A prayer to Timothy Dexter. It was nit written by him since every thing was spelt correctly. So he had some guy write a prayer about him.
@TreeckotheRebel I never said he wasn’t. I just figure not everything has gone right for him. I’m sure compared to many many people he lives a charmed life. But not a perfect life.
Gotta admit Sam does a great job with his ad placement in his video lmao. Makes it funny. Nother good terry video! Props to you watching the mans adds to support his channel. Very gentlemanly of ya
Sad that Mr. Terry missed the dad joke, after making his first boatload of cash it said "[Timothy Dexter] realized that there were a lot of 'bucks' in Malden." Bucks being another word for male deer, which he was assigned to count. I had a good guffaw at that. Also I honestly though the part where the second edition of the book just had all the punctuation at the end with the call for the reader to 'stick them wherever they thought they needed them' was really funny.
@baldawen Unlikeable? No, the other characters would hate him but that’s what would make him endearing to us. The literal definition of an underdog who never gives up; cos he doesn’t know how to. Like Pinky without the Brain.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England from how he was pictured in the video he is definitely unlikeable, unless a golddigger who treats his wife/family like shit and shoots at random people who don’t agree with him is someone good? Of course in a show you can make anything up to fit the story better but this is very far from the mainstream “honest underdog who proved them all wrong” story.
@baldawen Yeah, I'm thinking more along the lines of a black comedy like It's Always Sunny, where it's a self-aware comedy about how the joke is that the characters ARE scumbags and we know it. You couldn't take this shit and make a serious drama out of it, lmao.
maybe someone said it already. I do not see it. but RNGesus refers to a gaming joke/term. Because a lot of gaming elements in a gaming can be randomly generated a random number generator (RNG) is used, most commonly a random value between 0 and 1. That is where that comes from.
I wrote a paper on that book, my teacher genuinely thought I was messing with him when I put in quotes of the book. He apologized to me the next day after I gave the book to him
He was born in 1747. America didn't really have standardized spelling till 1828 unless you were _very_ dedicated specifically to reading to import a Samuel Johnson 1755 dictionary of British spellings. Before then and likely a good bit after then, whatever spelling you felt worked was basically valid.
This man's Wikipedia page is well worth a read "when Dexter heard of people's complaints about lack of punctuation he had a special edition of his book made up with 11 pages of punctuation marks for readers to put in wherever they please"
There's many more stories about the things he shipped and sold. Also,the 2nd edition of the book that included punctuation,out sold the first 8 printings.
RNG stands for random number generator It's a perception (maybe) of how in computer games loot is distributes. Once you loot a chest or a monster the random number generator determines if you get some good loot or just crap. So praying to the lord of RNG once in a while will increase your luck to get good loot (very much like praying to the Lord in Heaven will make your lives easier). Obiviously the messiah of the lord of RNG is his son RNGesus.
@Mr. Turnip They would just print more, which makes the value go down. are you from USA? If so, consider yourself lucky that you have not touched a 1 million note of any currency and said note have little to no value.
RNGesus is the gamer luck god, RNG means random number generator, so when someone says you've been blessed by RNGesus, it just means you're very lucky.
Just found your channel! Im a bit of a history nerd and always have been. Wish I had you as a teacher in high school. You should treat your students to the occasional Sam’O’Nella video if you don’t already.
Timothy's luck has progressed into the modern day, as, if you look up his book now, not only does it still exist it is considered by historical Scholars to be and I quote "culturally important, and is a part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it"
Explanation time!: "RNGesus" is a non-serious deity created by the video gaming community. His name comes from mixing Jesus and RNG, which stands for "Randomly Generated Number". RNG refers to mechanics that add randomness to a game, similar to dice rolls in Dungeons and Dragons. This is a term mostly used by the Speedrunning community, though the most broad part of the gaming community adopted it and turned into "RNGesus", a fickle god that grants his boons to anyone whenever he feels like it.
It's really rare that I get a real teacher vibe from Terry's reactions but 11:14 was pure gold in that regard xD Man the amount of times I got scolded by my history and politics teacher for my spelling mistakes despite getting full marks content wise... That took me down memory lane
This guy telling you to sub and like the videos he’s reacting to is legendary, not once does he plug his channel but he thoroughly supports what he’s reacting to.
Not only do I have respect for fully citing and giving proper credit to the original creator, but immense respect as well for even letting his ad play through to the end. Going to rewatch this video a few times with my ad blocker off just for that
RNGesus is a combination of Jesus and RNG (Random Number Generation) which is used to randomize events in video games. People pray to RNGesus because they wish for good randomization. Just for clarification
4:25 The reason Germany did that is because it was forced to pay damages/reperations to the winning side which ultimately is what lead to WW2. If you're guna comment on something at least give context.
