Camo-WHAT?

My first post is going to be pretty deep. So quit reading now if you don't want to your head to explode with the knowledge of a thousand kings. For those brave enough to continue. Hear we go...

Camouflage? A word or a way of life? To truely understand camouflage, you must break it down into 3 seperate parts. Part one! Which came first, the word camouflage or actual camouflage? Some theorists believe that a great man, not a woman (because camouflage is just to amazing to be created by the inferior sex), invented camouflage while he was on an African Safari. Legend has it he needed to be hidden after 3 of his friends were eaten by lions. He wrote about this creation in his journal and is believed to have been eaten by lions the next day. Others believe that the word camouflage was created first and that brings me to...


THE SECOND PART! (I was going for something dramatic there) If the word camouflage was created first, what did everyone do before? Would they say "hey, look at that thing over that that blends in with the surrounding background." That's just dumb. My belief is that if the word came first, people could not see things that were "camouflaged." Once someone said the new word, instantly everyone in the world could see things they never saw before. Powerful stuff.


The third part is a little to intense for my first post, so I'm gonna let you use your imagination and think of your own third part. Kind of like what I did with the first two parts.
