Play video games pretending to be awesome vikings, mayans, spartans, samurais, pirates while not actually having to live the shitty life they did.

We need to be burned as demons because we have magic (through technology).

English and Irish Ancestors (IE, before Rome came = the Celts: WTF do you you mean they don't hold women to a high standard? Women create life. Paint yourself blue, child, and go kill them. And then go to Denmark and fight some Vikings (and maybe bang one, they're pretty hot).

Dutch Ancestors:....where is all your pillaging gear? Your boats! Your beating up on Swedes!

Cherokee Indian ancestors: Fuck you. Also, Star Flower, you really need to ignore all this crazy stress and just smoke a bowl with us. You Dutch ancestors will agree. We will enter the land of dreaming. It will be epic.

African ancestors:...you need more tribal dancing in your life.

The Aztecs would take one look at our chainsaws and cry tears of joy. No more cutting up Spaniards with macanas!

The Spartans would probably be a bit ticked off at how they were shown in 300.

Thus inspiring Lord Kikuchiyo, if he were in fact a real person.

Half my ancestors would hate me for being English (at least one of them would, being a Sinn Fein member in the 1920s - he's obviously dead now), whilst I think the other half would treat me either with indifference or delight, being poor Russian Jews escaping during Alexander III's pogroms.

In general however, our ancestors would most likely be mystified with us. We know a great deal more about their time periods than they would even be able to dream of ours.

Not enough pillaging.
We need more pillaging. Now.
Yes, we do. Which is why when I get enough money, I'm building a viking ship. Any volunteers? Free stuff and all the women you want!

Drive.

That would scare the crap out of them. Or at least get me speared.
