joshuatxuk Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) ^Brits are just really good with propaganda for morale boosting. Colonel Bogey March (The Bridge Over River Kwai whistle song) is probably the best example of the Hitler having only one ball trope. IIRC Napoleon was something like 5'7" which was pretty normal now (at least worldwide) and fairly average / arguably tall-ish back then. I don't think the Cracked article mentions it but he had bodyguards/personal guard soldiers who were 5'10" or taller which also might have warped witness testimony of him being short.

joshuatxuk Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) On the flipside, something many have no idea about but was totally true - DPRK's original great leader, Kim Il-sung, had a giant growth on the back of his head. As he aged, starting in the late 1970s, Kim developed a calcium deposit growth on the right side of the back of his neck. Its close proximity to his brain and spinal cord made it inoperable. Because of its unappealing nature, North Korean reporters and photographers, from then on, always filmed Kim while standing from his same slight-left angle to hide the growth from official photographs and newsreels, which became an increasingly difficult task as the growth reached the size of a baseball by the late 1980s.[65] Edited August 11, 2017 by joshuatx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Does anyone think Trump has the mental capacity to enter in the codes? I would hope it is a string of digits designed to keep idiots away...I would imagine the scenario would be something like "sir, you can't put an apostrophe there... this isn't your ATM pin... Trump - "Mike P, Rex, can you do this?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump - "Mike P, Rex, can you do this?" it's not actual codes. it's a book of plans. like 'wing plan r' from the kubrick film. president just has to authorize then the generals give codes orders down the chain of command but no i doon't think his mental capacity is up to it and i'm amazed he can even use twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Drumpf is seriously threatening Venezuela now? He really hit the golden tickets hethinks, nothing distracts the media from your numerous corruption scandals like military conflict. After all those years the world tolerated Chavez, and now it takes this dick to try to get the US involved in their election, what business does the US have going in there? Unless there's an all out civil war, and their neighbors asked the US to intervene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubin Farr Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 As my step brother is a Marine, I wouldn't compare dedicated service people to the white trash that show up drinking at a photo op, or try to intimidate minorities with torches in the darkness. In the South, it can be hard to tell the difference I'll admit, and some military are indeed both, but the majority take their careers dead seriously, leaving their families for months on end to keep us safe at night. And they don't all agree with the Commander in Chief, this one, or the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there's an all out civil war, and their neighbors asked the US to intervene. He's talking out his ass, he's likely saying the same kind of things he did when he was a businessman terms of threats only now he has the u.s. military to cite as part of his power. I'm sure even the most hawkish military leaders were cringing at him saying that as they try to deal with actual issues going on. Trump is issuing dumb empty threats recklessly. The irony about Venezuela's this is actually the first time a lot of Latin American countries are openly talking about sanctioning the country, including ones that were fairly close to the country during Chavez's reign. Trump is totally blowing opportunity to work with international community on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's really impossible to generalize military personnel, even though it's an all-volunteer military force it's still pretty diverse. My siblings are in the Air Force and Air National Guard and they're a lot more apolitical and mellow than most of my other relatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 What's scary now is these lunatics in open carry states that show up in full camo fatigues, with body armor and assault rifles, or dressed as SWAT, bc anyone can buy from police and military suppliers these days, so in a conflagration like this, you can't tell the legit cops and army from the "militia" crazies.
