We swore our allegiance to Languish and Napoleon XIV during the abortive Mongolian Scenario putsch of '03.  This can never be forgotten. Now, after our years of struggle, it is time for us all to gather round the fire with our cyberceramic steins and remember the good times, together as one.

Napoleon XIV?  I thought it was Napoleon XIII!  No wonder I was shot!

And hello, old friend.

Now that we have seen the reboot of Norgy, can the reboot of Babylon 5 be far off?

Can only hope it is far, far, far off.

Anyway, I was objecting to the nazi-imagery.

Quote from: SheilbhI mean we could probably all object to the Nazi imagery.

But I'm sure we're all with the sentiment :P

Oh come, a liberal draught from the wellspring of Nazi imagery is the one thing we absolutely all share in this place.  :D

The last time Norgy went looking for a mail order bride didn't he pretend to be a Nazi?

That sounds more like a Slargos or KC4 schtick.
Experience bij!

I swear it was Norgy and he was talking to this Russian woman and pretended he was descended from a member of the SS Viking Division.  She actually started saying how great the SS Viking was...man some people will do anything to escape Russia.

No, I don't think I fall under "we" in this instance. :(

I apologize.  My current nightstand reading is, for whatever reason, At The Mind's Limits ("Jenseits von Schuld und Sühne" -- "Beyond Guilt and Atonement") by Jean Améry (né Hans Chaim Meyer), one of the most wrenching depictions/analyses of Gestapo torture and then daily life in Auschwitz (mainly slave labor for I.G. Farben at Mono-Buna III), and I feel some compulsion to shake off its effect on me through jokes...

And I've never been one to just say all Jews get a pass on Nazi humor just because.  What's good for the goy is good for the gander, as it were.

As someone who lurked for a long time before posting, I'm happy that Norgy is back. :)
