I missed the news, did Germany invade Czechoslovakia again?

[jberryhill]

In a nutshell, aside from naming a non-existent country, wtf point was she on about?

I mean, hey, I'm as upset as the next guy over the breakup of the Habsburg Empire, but I think I'm pretty much over it on a personal level.

[Ikonoklast]

1. Bad news about the Archduke coming from Serbia, I'm afraid.

And more trouble in Assyria.

Just terrible.

[jberryhill]

4. Are the Polivetzians still dancing?

And did you know that the melodies of many popular tunes are actually works by the great masters?

[Ikonoklast]

8. Prince Igor decrees that there shall always be dancing!

[Le Taz Hot]

5. I'm more concerned about the Ottoman Empire

looking to annex Prussia. The Russian Empress may have to intervene.

[jberryhill]

7. What about Fucking Austria!

[Le Taz Hot]

9. Hey, I don't want to fuck Austria!

Austria's never done anything to me. Well, other than that Austrian Shepherd two-colored eyes thing. That's kinda weird.

[jberryhill]

10. A dog did something weird to you?

Do tell. I'll go up and change the subject line.

[Le Taz Hot]

11. It's a time in my life

I don't like to talk about. (sniff)

[jberryhill]

14. Ah, well, we'll always have Constantinople

[Le Taz Hot]

16. Damn this war!

[jberryhill]

17. Look, if you don't get on that plane, you'll regret it

Maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

[pinboy3niner]

19. Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship

[Le Taz Hot]

20. Hey! I've never been to Casablanca.

I'm thinkin' you've got me confused with some other broad in some other gin joint.

[jberryhill]

22. I've been to Marrakech

I could have sworn it was you.

You wore beads, and we had mint tea.

[Le Taz Hot]

27. No, no, no.

It was Raki and there was a band. I distinctly remember dancing. And a something about a redhead. It's all a little fuzzy.

[jberryhill]

31. Ah, yes, I remember it well

[Le Taz Hot]

32. . . .

[DLnyc]

12. Yes, quite a town

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fucking,_Austria

This part gets to me, somehow:

. . . There is a bus service operated by OÖVV between Schärding and Eggerding which makes stops at Unterfucking (Lower Fucking) and Oberfucking (Upper Fucking). . . .

[kestrel91316]

26. Get over it! At least nobody forgot Poland this time.

[Posteritatis]

15. Ottomans, schmottomans. The Timurids are coming! (nt)

[jberryhill]

18. The Ottomans are being ousted by the Recliners

[Cooley Hurd]

40. Oh please, PLEASE tell me his lovely wife, Duchess Sophie, is okay!

I just don't know what I would do if anything happened to her!

[efhmc]

2. Funny.

[Le Taz Hot]

3. LOL!

[pinboy3niner]

6. Stay tuned. Allies rumored to have secret invasion plan.

[thelordofhell]

13. I think this guy had something to do with it...........

[NBachers]

21. Our ally Batista is starting to crumble; dire consequences if we don't prop him up with money & ammo

[jberryhill]

23. What does Generalissimo Francisco Franco make of this?

[unc70]

24. It's deadly

[pinboy3niner]

28. Didn't you hear? You really should stay on top of the SNL news updates...

"Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead."

[Le Taz Hot]

30. OMG! Garret Morris!

I fell out the first time I saw him do that.

[kestrel91316]

25. Austro-Hungary is on the march to Constantinople, and

trampled over Czechoslovakia in the process. Transylvania has called for assistance from Shangri-La.

[Brother Buzz]

29. Yes, right after they bombed Pearl harbor

[pinboy3niner]

33. And we shall never forget! It's not over!

[DFW]

34. In a way, you're not completely wrong

Trying to get hotel reservations in Prague over a German holiday weekend is nearly impossible these days.

[hfojvt]

35. If you really want an answer

This http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021359162

And the Habsburg empire broke up (or was broken up by France) in 1918. Czechoslovakia did not break up until 1992.

[tavalon]

36. No one wants a real history lesson

We're publicly teaching a Repig moran (sic). Not that they are teachable so mostly we're just pointing and laughing.

[hfojvt]

38. no, we are plublicly adding to the noise and the hatred

and helping Republicans to sell one of their key messages. "Liberal elites think they are better than you."

Now Lizard breath, who looks to me like an attractive young woman, will be able to go on TV and say "yes, I should have said Czechia instead of Czecholoslovakia, but the facts of what I meant are still true, that Obama abandoned our allies Poland and Czechia in favor of our enemies - Russia. But instead of being able to defend his actions, liberal elites would rather just jeer about my Biden-speak of saying Czecholsovakia" (insert clip of Biden here).

In that way, we help to create this Beavis and Butthead idiocracy that we live in. Because the Junior highers are in charge of our society.

[tavalon]

39. Point taken, though she isn't attractive and she isn't intelligent

We're merely acknowledging the sad truth here.

[ashling]

37. Damn! If Obama had only stood up to them the first time they did it . . .

[joeybee12]

41. Damn! I wanted to go to the Sudetenland for my vacation!

I guess that's off now!

[malaise]

42. OK this thread is effing brilliant

[TheOther95Percent]

43. Ditto.

It is brilliant. I'd recommend the whole thread for a DUZY.

[malaise]

44. Agreed

[Odin2005]

45. I heard the USSR did.
