We all ask of the board many different things...

.... you know, opinions, advice, various factual queries.

Well, smart people, what would YOU do if a relative gave YOU an authentic Nazi flag? You know the kind, red field, white circle with a swastika in the center?

Fly it in the front yard? Hang it on a wall? Can't return it, like to the store. Can't put it on ebay.

If it were me? Well, I think I'd come around to just giving it back after the utter fukkin' shock of getting it wore off. Failing that, I dunno. Flag burning was never a personal issue with me... I guess it would become so under those circumstances.

All in all, I can say pretty much for certain I'd kinda freak the fukk out a little. National Socialism? Not a fan.

You?

If it had some historical significance, I'd keep it. If not, I'd thank them for realizing I always wanted to burn one of those things. Same with a U.N. flag.




If they gave me a Confederate flag, that would actually be kind of cool though.

What's the big deal? It's a nazi flag. You didn't buy it, you didn't ask for it, you were given it. You keep that shit, to get it appraised.

If it's just a nazi flag some high school punkasses flew during their little stomp stomp fests, i'd still want a note saying that it was a flag some high school punkasses flew during their little stomp stomp fests.

If it's of historical significance, like it actually flew over Dresden or some shit, hell yeah I'm keeping that shit. Buying a book or two to put with it in the lockbox as well.

You don't want a Confederate flag. You're way too much of a pussy to ever come from the South. :D

All I really ask of the board (and all I hope you really expect of me) is that on average, we're funny and not (overly) stupid. If we also have takes and don't suck, so much the better.

Good luck with all of that.

Pretty much sums up my take on that little hypo. Same answer, btw, if it were a Confederate flag, although I know that'll work the haytas into a lather.

Well, Terry, for starters, there's these guys...

...especially back when Jimmah was coaching 'em.

:-)

Anyway, of course one could sell that flag on e-bay. Can't imagine why velo says he can't...

In that post? Southerners and people whose ancestors fought on the other side in that war to begin with...

To call that post hating on Southerners today is quite the reach.

And I don't hate on the people who fought on that side. I do hate what the South was fighting for (an ideology, not a person), and I make no bones about that.

You hate the concepts of state's rights, limited government and freedom from onerous taxation?


Well, you're in the right party...

Slavery, but it's not surprising that you missed that.

Ditto.

Actually what I missed was exactly where Lincoln thought he had a mandate to abolish slavery what with his minority win (against 3 candidates) and a minority in both houses of congress..

Lincoln didn't abolish slavery until 1863. Most of the South seceded before he had even been inaugurated.

And now I really am gone.

Actually he never abolished slavery. And he didn't have the votes to do jack-shit until the South decided to seceeed.

In fact, when the South did seceed, the only things he was interested in were maintaining the forts and collecting the tarriff.

Yeah, I realize that some days, maybe even most, even that's too much to ask. My point is that I generally don't come here to try to solve the world's problems, or even my own. (No offense, but if I needed serious advice on something, T1B.com, thetrolls.net, etc. are the absolute last places I'd go.) I visit this place for comic relief. If I drop in and read something, or see a pic that makes me go...

:lol:

...the board has done its good deed for the day, as far as I'm concerned. If I post something that makes at least some of you go...

:lol:

...wonderful. I reckon I've done my good deed for the day.

I know. I'll try to post more often though...
