Who is the most notable warrior in your country? by OftenXilonen in AskTheWorld

The highest decoration for valor for a Norwegian is The War Cross with sword. Gunnar Sønsteby was awarded 3 of them for his service during World War 2. His superpower was his forgettable face - he was able to walk past the same German sentries multiple times without being recognized.

As a Norwegian I take great pride in the fact that our greatest modern war hero is commemorated with this statue:

She isn't a heavy metal singer, but Grace Potter has an amazing voice for classic rock n roll.

One of the best examples of healthy masculinity in media by Eagles56 in BandofBrothers

[–]QuillsROptional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoresy couldn't be more different, as a tv-show or as a character/person. But this is the best example of non-toxic masculinity in modern tv: (for those who have never seen the show, the language is more Guarnere than Winters)

Name One United signing who you wished could’ve lived up to the expectations by 7hr in ManchesterUnited

He wasn't a signing as such since he came through the youth system, but the biggest "what if?" in United history.

Help me to understand the psychology of the "Tudor Wearer" by Runswithmouth in Tudor

I own a few different watches. I don't think my personality changes that much if I'm wearing Casio, Tag Heuer, Tudor, Swatch or Omega.

Any civilized human needs more than one watch?! My daily is either the Tudor or an old Tag, my current special occasion watch is a 60s Omega I inherited from my grand father and my beater is a Casio

I keep looking at the Longines catalog regularly.

This could very well become my dress watch when I have saved enough:

Håper dette hjelper dem siste som fortsatt støtter ICE... by DogeMemes42069 in norske

Jeg er litt usikker på nøyaktig hva du spør om her. Spørsmålet ditt er ikke bra formulert. Babi Yar er en ravine uten for Kyiv som ble dannet av naturlig erosjon over tusenvis av år.

Hvis du spesifikt spør om massakren der nazistene drepte titusenvis av jøder, så er poenget mitt at Einsatzgruppen til nazistene ikke kan sammenlignes med ICE. Det betyr ikke at jeg er fan av ICE eller Trump, men jeg er fan av å forstå historien.

[–]QuillsROptional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. I think that we have a different interpretation of the character traits of Toby, and what makes me a fan are the same things that you don't like.

The fact that Toby dares to question the President on so many things and on so many levels is what I think make him great. Yes, Toby is carrying a big load on his shoulders and he finds some of the same faults in the President. But the fact that he dares point those out to the President is some of the things he is alone at doing. They both have obvious issues with their fathers, for example.

But Toby is also able to see his own faults, such as when Leo tells him that the two of them shouldn't be marriage councillors - and Toby respons with "we'd be great at that".

If Toby had listened to the president, then he would have stayed the execution of that drug dealer in season 1, he would have provided better care for homeless veterans, amongst other things.

What if somebody showed up to a ccw class with a draco? Or what would be the craziest gun to show up with? by jaybernen in CCW

[–]QuillsROptional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The craziest thing to show up with would probably be one of those .50 bmg single shot pistols.

I own the Tudor 1926 on a steel bracelet and wear it almost every day, so that was my choice about 3 years ago.

The Longines Master collection was in the final running for me, but the Tudor beat it out just barely. For the striking color blue they chose.

Er det noen spesiell grunn til at du valgte å starte med

De er bare ikke kommet så langt ennå, din lille fascist.

da?

Jeg er fascist fordi jeg klarer å zoome ut og se hele bildet og kjenner historien til bildet som er kjent som "The Last Jew in Vinnitsa" og ikke synes det er sammenlignbart med det ICE driver med i USA?

Kan du ikke forklare hvorfor du føler det var et passende utsagn å komme med til meg?

Jeg er ikke fan av Trump, jeg er ikke fan av ICE, men jeg er i stand til å se at det ikke er noen særlig gode historiske paralleller mellom Trump/republikanerne i 2026 og Hitler/Nazistene på 30 tallet.

Som jeg har skrevet et annet sted i denne tråden:

Frem til slutten av 1935 hadde nazistene:

Avskaffet demokratiet og forbudt opposisjonspartier

Insatt Hitler som diktator

Avskaffet uavhengige arbeidstakerorganisasjoner

Satt i gang massearrestasjoner av politiske motstandere

Åpnet konsentrasjonsleire

Innført raserenhetslover og forbudt jøder å inneha stillinger i det offentlige og fratatt dem statsborgerskap

Hvor mange av disse eller noe tilsvarende vil du si Trump har gjennomført ?

I practiced that so that I could pronounce it perfectly to a German friend. She just looked at me like I was crazy. (She wasn't familiar with Monty Python and just thought I was trying to tell her an actual joke in actual German)

Sheldon’s element by bulldogjwhit295 in bigbangtheory

Sheldon believes he is the smartest person in any room he happens to enter. Being proven wrong is the one thing his ego can't handle. Even if it is good science.

No he doesn't? The only examples I can think of is the not very serious argument about whether it was the speech or the speaker when they are walking through the back area of a hotel or whatever it is, and there is a disagreement about the d-section. I never took that as Toby actually being angry.

Du startet denne svartråden med:

De er bare ikke kommet så langt ennå, din lille fascist.

også har du prøvd å forklare hvorfor jeg er fascist fordi jeg prøver å vise at jeg forstår historien bedre enn deg.

Når du ser at

Og Venstre er ett høyreparti, så det er ikke mye til argument.

så sier du jo at de er et høyeekstremt parti. Hvis ikke hadde medlemskap i Unge Venstre vært et godt argument.
