Why is it that when important historical events are viewed through the lens of the internet and liberally flavoured with TVTropes, they become hilarious?
For instance, when looking at the split between the Roman Catholic church and the Orthodox church of the Byzantine Empire, it's much, much funnier to picture it as a flame war that grew out of hand on the forums and led to mutual bannination, followed by epic flouncing to separate sites, where the wankstorm continues to this day.
I think I'll be giggling about this all week.
