Ah ha, the infamous pogo is back...regardless of name, I'm sure the same BS rhetoric will remain.

And if I met you, I'd make damn sure I call you jobby jabber as loud as I could - even if the name does sound a bit homosexual

[Mahdnyw]

you can jobby jab a woman too

Imagine the amount of hot lesbian loving and sweaty man on man sex that took place that night that it was announced.

Utterly Pointless Twaddle puts woman in Coma

A 33 year old woman from Hertfordshire has been admitted to hospital after falling into a coma. Her condition is described as serious but stable. She had reportedly been exposed to almost lethal amounts of utterly pointless twaddle on the internet, while browsing a popular festival forum.

One user says they warned her repeatedly about the risks of exposure to such content but she had determinedly said she was “intelligent enough to cope with the inherent twaddle therein”. The user who wishes to remain anonymous said “Her curiosity got the better of her, and she couldn’t help herself”.

A spokesman for the local hospital said “it seems she just lost the will to live, after reading a particularly pointless thread in an internet forum”.

The woman’s family are at her bedside and have asked that their “privacy be respected at this trying time”.

The site in question has declined to comment.

This story always boggles my mind...

http://abcnews.go.com/2020/story?id=2684890&page=1

A guy rings up Mcdonald's pretending he is the police and tells them a girl is stealing from them so they need to strip her, search her stuff, make her do star jumps, finger herself, be spanked and finally blow a guy over 3 hours and everyone does as they are told untill the janitor is given the phone and goes this is stupid and just hangs up.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing isn't it?

I wonder how european history would have been changed if he had died?

[sifi]

Germans wouldn't have dressed so smartly. Cant really think of anything else that would have changed though.

[RABun]

I have no doubt either that there would have been a nationlist socialist geovernment, and they would have been pretty extreme, but would it have been as extreme? Would there have been a mass extermination of the Jews? Would chamberlains appeasement have been successful? and would germany's actions have led to WW2?

[The Nal]

I've been thinking about it, and I tend to agree. They'd be some-one else who would become an extremist leader in Germany, probably.

Adolf would probably be a more common first name mind.

Interesting article from Newsweek on the changing attitudes of Europeans towards America

[RABun]

I had another thought about the If Hitler hadn't lived question.

If he had died and germany had had a slightly more moderate government in the 30s, and the holocaust didnt happen, would we as liberals still have the same abhorrence for predjudice?

Not saying that the holocaust was a good thing but maybe it had the effect of showing us what extreme predjudice can do, and what humans can be capable of if allowed to start down that road.
