The Polish Adventurer.


So I am reading this Atlantic article about Baron Roman Fedorovich von Ungern-Sternberg (who was a White Russian who sort of took over Mongolia in the 1920s) and in it the author Nick Danforth
drops a mention of a Polish guy named Ferdynand Antoni Ossendowski who is described as
an “adventurer and reputed fabulist” and I am left sitting here wondering how the fuck I get that on my business card.

I mean, let’s be honest here, I basically am an adventurer and fabulist, but I have really got to turn it up to eleven if I’m going to get other people to describe me that way.
