Not like just a smile or a puff of air out your nose, but a full on laugh?

    Listening to a podcast about the race to the South Pole between Robert Scott and Roald Amundsen.

    Amundsen had let it be known that he was actually going to the North Pole before (surprise) turning around and heading south. Then, not only did he beat Scott to the South Pole, he left a letter there addressed to Scott, asking him to make sure it got posted to the King of Norway,

    Amundsen with the Big Dick Energy. While yes, it was also a safety measure in case Amundsen and his team didn’t make it back. But the dick move of “Not only did I beat you, please be a dear and deliver that announcement for me” must have crossed Amundsen’s mind at some point.
