The one and only thing that will make me absolutely offended and riled up is that Buddha apparently was not fat. The "biography" in the religious texts, though naturally untrustworthy as any other of its nature, never stated or even put any concerns about the Buddha being fat. In fact, it claimed that he almost starved himself to death at one point.

Damn Chinese and their fat Buddhas!

[Of course I'm not offended. Just having fun.]

Yes, that is true. It should be before we're around though, so we can make it into a game later. I mean, there are great Medieval games, great ancient games, great World War II games, but no good games at all revolving around such wars after WWII!
