    Dunno where I was expecting that to go, but it was not where it ended up going. It’s actually hilarious.

      I did a really stupid laugh at the punchline at like 1am, but thankfully nobody woke up from it.

    It would be nice to have elected officials who were born after the Battle of the Bulge.

          More like: Only Americans get taught so much about specific battles in school. Elsewhere the focus for WW2 lies more on what led to it and the like.

            Yes. The reason I learned about the Battle of the Bulge is from Battlefield 1942, not school.

                And I, not enjoying realistic historic shooters that much, have probably never learned anything about WW2 from videogames.

              Honestly, for you it may seem that way. For me other things you might have very little to no knowledge about seem like basic things everyone should know. It just so happens, that I don’t specifically enjoy learning about moments in time where we were particularly intent on killing each other. My interest in history tends to be at the same time larger and smaller in scale, either following specific people or society in general.

            I don’t remember learning much about the Battle of the Bulge in school, except for the fact that it happened.

            My great uncle fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and he is who I learned all about it.

    Imgur sucks completely, and doesnt work without enabling Javascript from like 10 origins. Mind sharing the actual image?
