Yeah I'm sure whaling was all fun and games just like in your novels. Truth is, you relish the romance of entering some dangerous enterprise, without any desire to do it for real. Because the whaling ship doesn't have comfy bathtubs, convenience stores, videogames, Internet, porn, soft beds and clean clothes. You may curse these thighs as you clutch them for dear life.

You basically just described the military.

Westerner's would be much more willing to engage in danger I think if it didn't mean being surrounded by half retarded minorities constantly.

It's amazing how much insight you have into another persons mind.
Stop with your fucking cowardly, slave mindset and stop trying to convince others that they have it as well.
Bravery is more common than you think faggot
