I'm not killing Jewish people! I'm building a hobo army!

I know that during the era, Remington (among some others) made typewriters specifically for the Nazis that had a key with the SS runic lightning bolts, thus they're known as Nazi typewriters.
Ok, colour me surprised. Not just taking your word I checked this of course, as I probably should have done in the first place. I found this site which apparently had one for sale. (

Now of course it's still just a regular temporary Remington with the SS rune added. And that site very much shows my point about some people's fascination with anything nazi. But yeah, I didn't know that existed.

Those little figures weren't nearly limber enough to stack like cordwood which takes all the fun out of the game. I'm not really sure I get the deep meaning behind SURPRISE HOLOCAUST! There you are eating alphabet soup and suddenly the letters spell Nazi. Do you stop eating the soup? WELL DO YOU YOU CALLOUS BITCH?
On the other hand the part in Thief where your buddy freezes to death so bothered me that I redid it by knocking him out and transporting him outside before it could happen so I guess I kinda see it.

I always killed him. I mean, he asks you to, so I figured I'd respect his wishes.

Not many people know this, but the board game Sorry! is actually about the Trail of Tears.
The four colors represent the four tribes involved (Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Seminole) and the finish area for each tribe represents their new home in Oklahoma Territory.

oh shit and since you just mentioned it I guess that means I've already played it
....and lost.

@Dresden: :laff::laff:
I fucking HATE that game Sorry. It is the epitome of one step forward two steps back. Sorry my ass. If I ever have to play that game again I'm going to decapitate someone with the fucking board. It's going to be slow, painful, and messy.

Operation is really about 19th century experimentation on hapless mental patients. On the plus side Candyland is about thier eventual rise and the overthrow of established order in favor of candy. Sadly they may have touched the metal parts too many times by that point.

I remember trying to ghost that level, and when I looked at the stats in the end it said I dealt 10 damage. Totally forgot about that guy, last time I respect someone's wishes. :p
