    He absolutely filled this out specifically to fuck with someone, probably his wife.

    Taking this seriously is like taking someone’s Quiplash game seriously.

      Engels didn’t believe in marriage, he called it “legalized prostitution.” He was close to two Irish women throughout his life though, but he was also a serial womanizer. He had an informal marriage on his deathbed with one of the Irish women.

        Huh, didn’t know that they weren’t married until she was on her deathbed. I just know that there was reference to his wife.

        I think my point still stands, that this was meant as a parlor game and his responses are meant to be funny rather than serious.
