Columbus, Clark, and Cortes, you got nothing, either.
Sure, maybe you sailed over choppy waves, fought with cannibals, and documented distant lands. Maybe you traded silk with kings, discovered precious stones, and toppled terrible empires. Maybe you even found new technologies and trade routes while helping us realize the Earth wasn’t flat.
But we just figured out cutting through the drug store parking lot saves us ten seconds.
Beat that.
AWESOME!
