didnt mean to offend

I didnt mean to offend anyone with the Nazi picture.

I understand it might be a sensitive subject for some, but
the picture was cleary just taking the piss.

The humor was in the shock value.

Anyways, I aplogize

It's funny, in a something awful kind of way, which is
usually making fun/satire of the controversial subject
anyways.

I actually thought that picture was hilarious... obviously
the whole nazi era was a horrible point in history... but
yeah, that's just satire... and all the best satire pokes
fun at pretty extreme, touchy subjects... in my mind
anyways!

nacmat: the humor in it... is that there are posters, with
the same layout as that one, with inspiring words and
quotes, and beautiful pictures of mountains and nature
etc... very cheesy. The humor is in the shock value of
placing a picture of Nazis, in what is typically a peaceful
poster.

why would a poster about teamwork have a picture of
mountains? mountains hardly ever work together...

saying, if you work as a team you can accomplish what the
nazi's accomplished...

I watch Dragon Ball Z on this early morning children's
program. I guess I started watching because of the fight
with the pink thing (name I cannot spell). Then I went on
holidays and I came back and the pink thing is fat and
friendly (I sort of know what happens,). Anyway, now they
changed it, as the season ended, with this Yugio or
whatever, and it's awful. They just make up cards every week
and the opponent acts like he knows this card, it's very
shitty.

O man, I strongly dislike that program. All they do is set
up for a fight sequence for 30 minutes, in what should only
take about 30 seconds. And all they do is scream, grunt,
hold hands, push against eachother, sweat, shiver, and glow
with big hair.

actually, there is a company where you can get all kinds of
posters like that... they do make fun of those motivational
posters... these posters are actually demotivators or
something... like in a workplace you might see a poster with
a bunch of people working together, and they'd have a
message motivating the employees to work together to
accomplish more or something... and here they have a picture
of nazi's, and so it seems to say that hey, if you work
together you can accomplish great things like the nazi's
did... which is obviously just a joke... it's a bit of shock
value, with a bit of sarcasm, and poking fun and stuff... I
thought it was real funny, but I wouldn't actually put the
poster on my wall or anything...

i didn't think it was that funny, i like the 'real' ones on

and although i for one wasn't, i can see that certain people
might be offended by it, i think everyone with a bit
historical knowledge can see that
