Recently, I’ve noticed a lot of pictures showing up online of grave historical inaccuracies. I’m not sure why, but around this time every year, I see a spike in such fallacious images.

Frida Kahlo never spent any time with Abraham Lincoln. He’d died 42 years before she was born, so either this is a photoshop, or someone has created a gigantic hoax.

Lance Bass and Kim Kardashian together? That’s a historical inaccuracy. Lance Bass’s fame came to an end when N’Sync went on hiatus in 2005. Kim Kardashian’s sex tape didn’t even come out until 2007. So then I ask you history sleuths, how could they possibly in the same picture?

This started off as the scariest Halloween that I’ve ever experienced. I’m not scared of very many things. This is a list of things that scare me:

1. Sharks
2. MS-13

Sharks are carnivorous sea creatures. MS-13 is a Salvadorian street gang. Both are known for savage murder. I wasn’t near the ocean, so fear number one was not a concern. Fear number two became a concern, when I found out where the Halloween party was.

The party was at a historic hotel next to MacArthur Park. I knew the park for its lake, and gang-related drug warfare. After finding hearing the location of the party, I developed a plan to avoid all trouble. Run up Alvarado, to Sixth, and dash into the party, without getting murdered. Easy-peasy. But things changed when we were invited to pre-party on Alvarado and 11th.

Alvarado and 11th is the heart of MS-13 territory!
