"Gold! Fold for Germany!!!"

What East Germany's dominance at the 1980 Olympics doesn't count?

I am never clear on when East German medals count for Germany and when they don't :hmm:

15C is T-Shirt weather in Quebec.  If GF moved to somewhere hot like Vermont he might die of heat stroke.

Seems like for the joke, Russian puppet state wouldn't make much sense to count.

I think Speesh's point is that the more entrants a country is able to field, the higher their medal count will be.

I'm just saying it's not fair to give full weight to the medals earned by "Germany" during the years there were two Germanys competing.  Because they had like twice the competitors during that time.

There are plenty of white people in Vermont.

Blackman? :mellow:

Anyway, I think it is clear, dear, that I can survive in colder weather. That doesn't make weather in the 50s warm nor weather to walk around shirtless in.

I think Chinamen do okay in the cold, though.

Yeah blackmen is not a word.  Only nationalities get to skip the space like Frenchmen or Englishmen and even that is a little archaic.

Yeah they enjoy hanging out in horrible places like Manchuria and Tibet.

Incorrect.  It is now part of the Languish lexicon.

Do you think that Haitians might get cold easily because they come from a really hot climate and didn't grow up in the cold? Seems odd to attribute that to skin color.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)
