    Hey. HEY! Badmouth the French all you want, badmouth Americans all you want, but you leave them Germans alone.
    They would've used helium, but it was too expensive to obtain at the time the mighty airships were made. Also, German optical gear was always top notch.

    Is this one good example of a German?

    (Yes I know, he is not German blood, Austrian. I know... But, he did serve the German army in WWI and became the Fuhrer in WWII)

    HE'S GERMAN, IT MAKES SENSE.

    For one thing, AUSTRIAN. For another, FUCKING INSANE.
    I can find a picture of any other infamous individual of any other nationality and make a generalization of stupidity on them*. Making every German a hitler is unconscionable and abhorrently rascist. You want to know something? adolf was as German as he was blond, not at all.


    *making your point moot

    No, it isn't. He broke the Deutsch economy for YEARS after WW2, so he is not a good Deutsch anything. I think one of the quoted statistics was around 4 billion marks to 1 US dollar at the close of the war. Because of him, the Deustch-Amerikanisch were villified and accused of being spies.
    Unfortunately, at the time he was in the army, he was part of a much larger Prussian Empire, and was therefore technically the same as a person born in what is now known as Deutschland.
    However, the fact remains that you are a tremendous ass.

    Now, I won't inquire as to your specific nationality, but there were several ass-hats in power during WW2. Chief among them had to be

    Philippe Petain.
    While I happen to be of (mainly) French descent (with Scottish, Slovak, Czech, Irish, and GERMAN), I have to say that the only thing the French can properly host is an invasion.

    The French military really never did some defending, like, the Germans just walked in to Paris.
    Petain, was he Vichy-French?

    All they've got there is water. You can turn water into wine, but you can't turn water into beer.

    Does that crap even exist outside Sweden?

    That's a serious question, by the way. I can't stand mineral water, so I don't drink it, and hence my knowledge of tasteless carbonated water is sorely lacking.

    I've never seen it in the states, all we have seems to be San Pellegrino and Perrier. However...I like it.
    The French can't make beer, it's that simple. It's never exported, and I bet even where it's domestic people can't stand it. German beer, Irish beer. Those are the kind of beers that stand alone. You can have one for dinner.
    My favorite happens to be Guinness, but I don't shy away from beer unless it's light.

    Ahhh... another Guinness connaisseur (weird spelling that). If I wasn't so damn lazy right now I'd go dig up that book I have that features a poem in praise of beer, with Guinness among the heavenly brands.

    Though the Danish Carlsberg is also passable. After all, it "probably the best beer in the world" or however that ad phrase goes.

    We have San Pellegrino as well over here. I like the "Rossa" one.

    Guinness, Boddingtons, Hell, Norrlands Guld, Mariestads... I also had a Double Chocolate Stout which I very much liked!
