Quote from: Rincewind1;518578All other 3 look nice (I'd say I'm willing to give mushy peas a try as a dip, but for Cornish pasties I just have ruskie pierogi). But Fish & Chips, really?

Quote from: Rincewind1;518504Eastern branch of my family was shot by Nazis in '43 for cooperation with resistance (my granduncle was a village leader there, and he housed few of the fighters for a few days, and well, Gestapo caught track of it. And  they didn't screw around when setting an example). Both of my great grandmothers that I know/knew, served in forced labour camps. Sure, someone could say "But that's just a few" - but then who is engaging in the corpse counting?

And yet, I don't hate on Germans here, unless they are terrible cunts. Or presume that if you are okay with slaying orcs in DnD, you are a closet Nazi.

If I am going to be picky - I had looked at the first link in that pile, and it shows a biography of an Austrian officer. Ought I remind you which was the third nation that helped Germany and Russia in partitions of Poland? And quite a lot of Poles were drafted into all three of those armies when World War I started. Ought I carry that as a shield if the paths ever cross again?
