The fact that the main thing that slowed down the German advance was traffic jams?
Of course we have the 55th, 71st and 2 armored divisions at Sedan, which fought until being destroyed. Or the French troops at Dunkirk, which fought the rearguard actions, which allowed the BEF to withdraw back for embarkation. And then even after France had lost its best troops, the bulk of its armor and all of Northern France they kept fighting and launching counter attacks until over half of France was overrun and most every active unit destroyed, shattered or encircled.

The only French troops which gave up without much of a fighter where the division inside the Maginot line. Not surprising since they lacked the equipment of a field army, being fortress troops.

If you swapped the BEF and the French Army in roles and sizes you'd have the same result. If you swapped in most other armies it would be worse.

Either that was a deliberate Photoshop job, or somebody writing Google's scripts had a little fun and then had to remove it, because that isn't showing up when I do a search.

Ignore Darth Pounder. He's an obnoxious little racist shit, that's all.

Is it me or is Darth Pounder acting out of sorts? I don't remember him being such an illiterate asshole.

The cocaine he's snorting appears to have finally eaten a hole directly to his brain.

I think you're taking the ENGLISH hatred of the French a bit to far there.

No more comments like this out of you, you miserable little shit. Some of us don't tolerate rampant racism like that, and I'm one of them. My wife, who is French and a damn sight better person than you, is also one of them.

You must be absolutely butt-rippingly stupid. Head over to France and make your comments to any one French guy's face. Let me know how many pieces you come back in.

It's funny and all, but you need to take your personal bashings to PM maybe?

How 'bout the Irish?

As in Darth Pounder.

How many Irishmen does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Six!

One to hold up the lightbulb, and five others to drink until the room spins!

None, the lightbulb contains the seeds of revolution within itself.

My favorite is Camerone (sp?), the French's Alamo. Whoo hoo!

Looks like Pounder's begging for a custom title.

I've always noted that this board holds a lot of contempt for the French.

We inherited it from ASVS.

Poor France... all the guys are sissy and all the gals are either opera singers or dancers. If it weren't for all the tourism, France would be swallowed up and spat out by Germany. :twisted:

You can make fun of them, criticise their government, whatever. I don't give a shit. But I will rhetorically rip the throat out of the next butt-head who calls for the annihilation of the French, or any other race or nation, for any reason. It wasn't cool when Arminius did it and it's not cool now.

As I've mentioned, my wife is French. Guys like Pounder, I don't even need to tell them to show some class - I need to ask them to see how long they'd last insulting, say, Mike's wife, or calling for the annihiliation of her, her family, and her countrymen.

Thats coz it wasn't me. I was in bed last night dying of the flu. My last post yesterday was in Hemlock's "It Happened....." thread. After i went to bed my pissed off PMS filled bitch sister went on my computer as her own was broken and signed on to my MSN and got all my passwords. I've had to spend all day appologising for the damage she did in various places i go.

For what it's worth i'm not a fan of the french but i wouldn't go so far as to advocate genocide.

Some of you might remember a guy called Napoleon...

Before he was defeated he marched across Europe in victory... :wink:

Wasn't he defeated because he was gang-banged by every single other country in Europe?

No offense, but is your sister retarded or something? What would possess someone to do something like that? Sibling rivalry seems a thin, thin excuse for that kind of BS. If I were your dad, she'd be in such deep shit. I'd have her out looking for a job with the Amish. Thought you could use some support.

Hey, do a favour for my FRENCH wife, will you? Call your sister a racist bitch. That would be swell. Thanks.

One very good reason I do not write down passwords.
