Your Moral And Intellectual Superiors

1. You can pick out intellectual superiors by their use of silly terms like ‘nomenclature hold-overs’.

   1. Ja.

      1. In Germany he would be known as a Luftkopf

   2. He might have confused that word with “nomenklatura “

   3. Like: ‘Kriegsmarine”?

2. Yes Murray, apparently you were the only one. You probably signed Penn and Tellers petition to ban di-Hydrogen Oxide because it sounded nasty. Your profile says “Correspondent of war and peace”. I am concerned for your safety if you ever get to a war zone because a level of discernment would be required. You also stated “I never had a blue checkmark” but clearly you chose the blue pill.
   Good luck, you’ll need it.

3. Speaking of nomenclature hold-overs: A couple years ago I was at a restaurant in New York with some potential clients. I was excusing myself to visit the restroom and my assistant asked what I would like to order should the waitress return before I did. I said, “Just not sea food.” She nodded and I went on my way. When I returned my assistant had a tense expression on her face.

   I asked her what what was up. Well, two of the potential clients happened to be Jewish. I didn’t know that, and it made no difference. BUT, what they heard me say to my assistant was thus:

   “Just Nazi food.” (which required some explaining to clear up the matter)

   Those damn nomenclature hold-overs strike again. 😀

4. This guy is even dumber.

   1. Hilarious.

   2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahrBOvz1jzA

   3. Apparently NO one in the production process was any brighter.

   4. Everyone knows the Americans didn’t give up when Germany bombed Pearl Harbour

   5. Blutarski was right? No wonder he went on to be a senator.

5. I’ve recently noticed a high correlation between tolerance for illicit drugs, and leftist leanings. Which explains lots of things I bet.

6. Wanna blow his mind?

   Panzer short for Panzerkampfwagen.

   Shhh they’re even still in use on the Eastern Front.

   1. How about Sturmgewehr or Nebelwerfer.

   2. And, isn’t the “Red Army” still the “Red Army”?

7. Calling that dill a “journalist” is a nomenclature holdover.

   1. Hahahahaha ha ha ha

8. One would think a journalist would know a bit about a language and perhaps just a little about other languages.
   Luft is German for air
   waffe is German for weapon

   Luft waffe is German for “Air Weapon” or “Air Force”. What else should they be called?

   More on another German word/phrase:

   Der is German for The
   Fuhrer is German for Leader

   I think this, er, journalist regrets that or is surprised Germans are still speaking German simply because non-German speakers heard a few German words in the context of a very bad part of German history.

   Less than a minute with Google translate or even less with a German speaker…

9. Make sure you all sign the Leslyn Lewis sponsored petition to exit the WHO. It’s e-4623, it started the day at 12,000 signatures, now up to 17,000 signatures (launched Oct 10, ends Feb 7).

   1. Link please

      1. Found

         https://petitions.ourcommons.ca/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-4623

         1. Thanks. Over 20,000 signatures as of now. Keep them coming.

   2. Done (two of us)

10. What? Is Murray Oliver trying to win journalism’s highest award “Numpty of The Year”?

    The competition for that one is tough.

    Pulitzer Prizes? Ha! They pass those out to jurinalists (Swedish pronunciation) like candy on Halloween.

    1. Don’t you mean the Putzpuller?

       1. $#@!! auto-corrupt! Of course I did, Mike.

    2. I nominate the CBC’s Washington reporter Katie Simpson as a Numphy.

       1. I told you the competition was stiff, David. Murray is going to have to up his game if he’s to have half a chance of winning the Numpty Prize.
          ;o)

11. Pseudo-intellectual, yet idiot.

12. He makes my slap hand get all tingly.

13. I wonder if there’s a dear old nomenclature hold-over for schadenfreude.

14. He probably doesn’t understand 99 Luftballons either.

15. Wait till he hears that Germans today use a weapon called Panzerfaust.

    1. Lets see if this Schweinhund comprehends an insult?
       Cheers
       C in C
       1st St Nicolaas Army
       Army Group True North

       1. I expect he’s too much of a Scheisskopf. But we can hope!

16. Or, as JFK said, “I am a donut”.

17. The RCAF used to bomb German civilians at night. I wonder if knows the RCAF still exists . . .
