Also, I think Germany just scored again.

Everyone in Germany will score tonight.

Let's see how many births are there in Germany 9 months from tonight.

Twitter Sure Does Have a Lot of Nazi and Holocaust Jokes for the Germany-Brazil Game!

Five first-half goals for Germany left Brazil stunned and teary-eyed in today's World Cup semifinal and it only got worse from there. But for the amateur comedians of the internet, German dominance can mean only one thing: time for some Holocaust jokes. By the time finals-bound Germany scored its sixth and seventh goals, "Nazi" was trending on Twitter and just about every variation of an edgy but not-too-offensive Hitler or World War II reference had been used and reused. The onslaught was not as ugly as the game, but not quite as funny either.

A brief sample, because you'll quickly get the idea:

Binyamin Appelbaum: The Germans have stormed into a foreign country and taken charge. How unexpected.

Andy Farag: Germany must think they are playing Poland the way they are conquering Brazil right now

Daniel Kibblesmith: Man the goalie really holocaust them the game, I bet Brazil's coach was like Aw Schwitz

Spencer Ackerman: What Brazil doesn't realize is that if Germany wins it *will* conquer & colonize the good parts of the country.

Joshua Benton: Flush With Confidence, Germany Launches Land War in Asia

Sasha Frere-Jones: The Germans will just deny the match ever happened.

Max Silvestri: Probably already some Germans denying this many goals were scored. "The number of 5 is exaggerated."

John Podhoretz: I guess this is one thing you can't make a Downfall parody clip out of

World Cup 2014: Brazil did Nazi this coming.

Pabeats Baeless: Stop with these nazi jokes, they're not funny. Anne Frankly, they're offensive

My contribution:

German blitzkrieg leaves Brazilian team gassed.

The Emperor has no clothes.

Brazil had been shit so far, hence the first truly good team they face = rape.

Colombia and Chile didn't die for that

I was at work getting increasingly alarmed Whatsapp messages. I thought they were joking. Then I saw the last twenty minutes and realised 7-1 flattered Brazil

Angela Merkel's husband just shot himself.

Historic.

Speechless.

Happens once in a lifetime....Wow...

[miozozny]

Oh well. Brazil look down and out. 4-0 and gone.

Maybe I should go to sleep...

[A reference to the 1990 World Cup where I turned off, turned over and went to sleep in disgust at England going 2-1 down...only to dream that they'd won 3-2 and lo and behold woke up the next morning to find it so.]

I missed the 2004 EC final because of a distorted sleep pattern and had nightmare in which Greece won...waking up didn't help 

[Monoriu]

Oh well.  It doesn't really hurt the status quo for Germany to get into the finals.  What is really important is to get rid of the Dutch.

I probably missed several of the shots of shocked and crying Brazil fans during the telecast, so this helped make up for it.

Rid? They are the only team that can stop the German menace!

Just saw the first 5 goals. Wow. That's, that's just bad. Especially the 4th goal. Oh well, maybe toronto will keep their goalie now

All that matters is that tomorrow we're all Argentinians.

[Admiral Yi]

I'm rooting for the Dutch.
