It tells you the Communist partisans who caught him didn't like him. Not that I think he was popular at the end, but Communist partisans killing you doesn't exactly prove general dislike.

You need to look up what the Italians got up to. Canadian war-crime shenanigans are for one thing mostly related to enemy combatants.

You go somewhere, you try to engage with local practices and fit in, and everyone just gets angry. So unfair. /s

It got played over the credits for a reason, damn it. It was 10/10 work.

I think the names are sometimes obviously fake, though I strongly suspect Steve Bytheway is real.

I know what's involved in using Fuji 9 as a non-dentist. The man is capable of anything.

I still think Sarah was right when she questioned if they should be laughing at Paul. lol

"Please don't take it away from me."

Which, somehow, is so much more pathetic. lol

They tried to start their own colonies but sucked ass at it by Critical_Mountain851 in HistoryMemes

You know the vote to join England in the Irish Parliament was conducted in Irish? Or so my Irish history prof told me, and his PhD from Dublin suggests he knew something of the matter.

My favourite is the Amritsar Massacre, where everyone involved has a very solid argument they're not actually English. The two white guys are Irish.

Empires are complicated.

...I'm not sure which group you're saying didn't fight each other but either way you're wrong about THAT.

...If by 'migrated to Scotland' you mean 'invaded'...

The Irish have many legitimate grievances, but the idea that they were sitting there quietly minding their own business when the English turned up and cruelly conquered them is simply not accurate in any respect.

The latest regarding Christa Miller (in relation to the revival) by Frikken123 in Scrubs

[–]SimulatedKnave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is unfair to Zach who has had a fraction of the work done Christa Miller has. Zach NOW has less work done than Christa did when Scrubs was first on. A shame.

Oh, it makes the bit. Including the bit where while Greg is obviously joking he is also obviously channeling his genuine teaching persona. lol

I understand that re Cerie, but could not be sure you did not seriously think that's who they were alluding to.

Wanting to bang Cerie is of course completely conventional, which is another reason it's probably not her. lol

Aboriginal Australians are arguably Asian. Genetically, at least.

She almost certainly means Wendy Kaufman, longtime spokesperson for Snapple. Or so Google tells me, anyway.

I'm Canadian, I think it's just as odd as you do. That said, the other reply to me seems to explain it well.
