Apparently, if you turned up at an enlistment office during WWII they didn't even offer you a choice of which side you wanted to fight on.

Didn't even need to do that.
You'd get a telegram or a letter in the mail telling you to show up.


That's crazy. How the hell were you supposed to tell before you got there whether you'd be fighting for the Americans or the Germans?

Do they know that youre into fat women, are your compliments about them being fat?


I absolutely love flirting with, dating, and bedding fat girls (especially very fat girls!). This means I've often had partners for whom body image can be a sensitive issue. So I've never used, and would never use, a "hey, I'm into fat chicks" approach to try to chat one up in neutral territory.

Talking about body shape, size or weight with a fat girl whom you're hoping to date, or have started dating, is usually strictly taboo until you get to know each other better; save it for the bedroom, maybe. At first, she tends to assume you like her despite her being fat (and believe it or not, I do actually go for fat girls not just because they're fat); you can always let her understand later that actually, you know what? you're really pretty okay with her weight.

The exception to that rule is if you're meeting somewhere like a BBW/FA party. Back in the far-off days when I was still a free agent, I was up to my chin in the BBW/FA party scene in London for nearly three years (yep, there is such a scene in the UK -- or at least, there was in London at that time), and they were 24-carat fucking awesome. Believe me, if you think there can't be plenty of sassy, self-confident, sexually assertive fat girls who love to party hard and who know how to enjoy themselves think again. ;-)

last stand implies they're on the losing end of things

Boomers have ruled this world to their exclusive benefit and get to retire in luxury with a pumped up stock market that will come crashing down after they've cashed out their investments.

Never mind the mess they've made of the environment and the way they've always told themselves "we will be dead when this is a problem, let the kids clean it up"


Boomers were among the most radical generation of the 20th century and did the back-breaking spadework in countless social, political and environmental movements. Pigshit-ignorant brats whose awareness of the past doesn't stretch any further back than the last game they played are among the most cynical, selfish, vapid, and apathetic specimens of any generation.

He won't go quietly. He won't even concede defeat. He'll insist that the election was rigged against him, that the results are fraudulent, he'll demand recount after recount; and when he doesn't get his way, he'll just refuse to step down.

If he wins, his supporters will at some point start demanding a change in the law to allow him a three-term presidency; they'll be happy to tear up the Constitution and wipe their asses with it, because keeping Trump in power is more important to them than keeping democracy safe in America.

the only way to stop cartels and the corruption is to legalize all drugs


And what you can do in the meantime is to stop buying cocaine, because you know that your money is giving the cartels the power to commit mass atrocities like this. If you know it, but you're either too gutless or sociopathically selfish to care about it, and you'd rather hide behind feeble excuses about your lifestyle choices somehow being the government's fault (as if you're being forced to buy cocaine, for fuck's sake) -- then as far as I'm concerned, you're sloshing about in the same moral sewer as people who knowingly fund child porn to get their kicks.

So far, no one seems to have been able to:

- identify any of the breakthroughs supposedly made by the Nazis in their research
- confirm that the Nazis actually left detailed records behind instead of destroying them
- demonstrate that anyone recovered such records
- highlight Nazi research findings of any actual value
- point to any examples of Nazi research having been used in any way
- explain how this research was transmitted to whoever's supposed to have made use of it.

All I've ever heard on this subject is "OMG Nazi did medical experiments in the camps the world of medical science must have taken huge leaps forward because the Nazis were geniuses." From what I've read, what the Nazis primarily discovered was that if you immerse someone in very cold water for long enough they die of hypothermia and if you deprive them of oxygen for long enough, they die of anoxia/asphyxiation. Nazi researchers like Rascher and Mengele seem to have behaved like enthusiastic amateurs rather than serious scientists, motivated more by morbid curiosity -- like sadistic children pulling the legs off insects.


If you read about some of the things people admitted to during the Nuremberg Trials, you'll hear some information
Here's some more
https://remember.org/educate/medexp

People found information that was useful. People didn't just make this up about the experiments. Seems like people want to deny this ever happening NOW even though there is documentation of it, people admitted it occurred and survivors talked about their experiences of going through it


I've been well aware for many years that the Nazis conducted numerous medical experiments on unwilling human subjects. What I'm disputing is that their horror actually yielded genuine benefits for medical science. We know that if you immerse people in icy water, or lock them in decompression chambers, or deprive them of food or water for long enough, they die -- often horribly. We didn't need the fucking Nazis to tell us that. Even the German army must have scratched its head wondering how medics in the field could possibly exploit the surprising "scientific discovery" that if you pump scalding hot water into someone's digestive tract, they die.

What I'm asking for is any concrete proof that these experiments in pseudo-scientific sadism actually improved our understanding of the limits of human endurance in ways that saved lives, or contributed significantly to the development of new treatments. All I've ever read are baseless assumptions that because the Nazis weren't constrained by ethical boundaries, they must have pushed the limits of medical science and we're all somehow indirectly benefiting from these experiments.

Johnson may be a prat, but it's not compulsory to flatter people on their ridiculous choice of clothing.

We're literally talking about leaders tho, not just the general public.

Do you think it would be okay for Trump to talk shit about guys who wear crucifix necklaces?


Firstly, Johnson made the comment back in August 2018 -- nearly a year before he became Prime Minister. At that time he held no public office, he was a backbench MP.

Secondly, in the Daily Telegraph article in which he made the comment, he defended the right of Muslim women to wear the burka in public and he criticized Denmark for bringing in a ban. That didn't save Johnson from being savaged for his "Islamophobic" opinions, though. Apparently, mere tolerance isn't enough nowadays -- nothing less than grovelling, wholehearted endorsement will do.

Thirdly, I think Trump's said worse.
