Scaws history - the downfall of Liverpool

It's been a while since I've done these, right?
But they're fun to make and for my friend to forget until one day she will be questioned about it entertainment purposes

Today we look how Liverpool got in the state it's in today. It may be hard to believe, but there was once a time that Scousers were normal. Although, some claim there was a already a serious screw loose back in medieval times:

When Liverpool was still Liurpul, inhabited by a folk so fascintated by earth. Until one faithful day, the typical English weather was invented. Thus, their favourite thing got created (note: that this took place a feeeew years before the Beatles) : mud.
After some disturbing rituals all related to mud, it was crystal clear: the little town will be named after these joyful puddles


Why they eventually named their people after stew still remains a mystery but we assume it's because it looks like ... edible mud?

As the years and decades passed, Liverpool (name upgrade: puddle --> organ ) went through the same as most cities. Pirates from Ireland and Wales ended up in the city. They all got a bit too drunk, things started to look like an orgy et voilà:
the Scouse people together with their accent that we now nowadays are born. And you may ask yourself, is it true Liverpool has alcoholism problems? No, ofcourse not! The drinking pattern you may sometimes encounter is simply a tribute to their anchestors












Liverpool was doing fine. Just fineee. Had a lil industrial revolution. Became a grey city. But deep down something might have been missing? Without them even knowing?
And thus on a faithful Wednesday, October 9th , 1940, the hero this city was missing was born














Some say he had magical powers, just like Jesus
- he turned dumb question into sarcasm
- he turned straight boys into gays
but most importantly, he made Liverpool a famous place.
Oh, such joy. Liverpool was no longer a grey industrial even forgotten place (jk, it still was). They became known for their music, their culture. It was a truly special feeling, perhaps even more special than mud?
But all fairytales come to and end. Just like Jezus, John got betrayed by someone he believed he could trust: his boyfriend Paul
and so, the Beatles were no more  ;;;-;;;

the first crack towards a mental breakdown started showing. The John's death :'c
But, no worries. It's alll good
Because Scousers still had their identity and culture to be proud of. People still loved them for their music, right?

Unfortunately, London, the capital and queen b of all, saw this and decided to make a change.


At least they still have alcohol and track suits, right?;w;
