There he is. There he goes again. Look, everyone! He posted it once again! Isn't he just the funniest guy around?! Oh my God.


I can almost see your pathetic overweight frame glowing in the dark, lit by your computer screen which is the only source of light in your room, giggling like a like girl as you once again type your little comment p and fill in the captcha. Or maybe you don't even fill in the captcha. Maybe you're such a disgusting NEET that you actually paid for a 4chan pass, so you just choose the picture. Oh, and we all know the comment. The "lol why don't Americans celebrate Easter", isn't it? I imagine you little shit laughing so hard as you click it that you drop your Doritos on the floor, but it's ok, your mother will clean it up in the morning. Oh, that's right. Did I fail to mention? You live with your mother. You are a fat fucking fuckup, she's probably so sick of you already. So sick of having to do everything for you all goddamn day, every day, for a grown man who spends all his time on 4chan posting about a stupid Christian holiday. Just imagine this. She had you, and then she thought you were gonna be a scientist or an astronaut or something grand, and then you became a NEET. A pathetic australian NEET. She probably cries herself to sleep everyday thinking about how bad it is and how she wishes she could just disappear. She can't even try to talk with you because all you say is "LOL WHY DON'T AMERICANS CELEBRATE EASTER." You've become a parody of your own self. And that's all you are. A sad little man laughing in the dark by himself as he prepares to indulge in the same old dance that he's done a million times now. And that's all you'll ever be.


Forever...

Stalingrad. True horror I guess.

>>56956949
The army of Austria, approximately 100,000 strong, was setting up camp around the town of Karánsebes. The army's vanguard, crossed the Timiş River nearby to scout for the presence of the Ottoman Turks. There was no sign of the Ottoman army, but the hussars did run into a group of Tzigani, who offered to sell schnapps to the war-weary soldiers. The cavalrymen bought the schnapps and started to drink.

Soon afterwards, some infantry crossed the river. When they saw the party going on, the infantry demanded alcohol for themselves. The hussars refused to give them any of the schnapps, and while still drunk, they set up makeshift fortifications around the barrels. A heated argument ensued, and one soldier fired a shot.

Immediately, the hussars and infantry engaged in combat with one another. During the conflict, some infantry began shouting "Turci! Turci!" ("Turks! Turks!"). The hussars fled the scene, thinking that the Ottoman army’s attack was imminent. Most of the infantry also ran away; the army comprised Italians from Lombardy, Serbs, Croats, and Austrians, plus other minorities, many of whom could not understand each other. While it is not clear which one of these groups did so, they gave the false warning without telling the others, who promptly fled. The situation was made worse when officers, in an attempt to restore order, shouted "Halt! Halt!" which was misheard by soldiers with no knowledge of German as "Allah! Allah!".

As the cavalry ran through the camps, a corps commander reasoned that it was a cavalry charge by the Ottoman army, and ordered artillery fire. Meanwhile, the entire camp awoke to the sound of battle and, rather than waiting to see what the situation was, everyone fled. The troops fired at every shadow, thinking the Ottomans were everywhere; in reality they were shooting fellow Austrian soldiers. The incident escalated to the point where the whole army retreated from the imaginary enemy.

Batlle os Zvolen- Czechoslovakia x Hungary
Based Šnejdárek
>As I said, I intended to attack the Hungarians
from Levice in the north. Schueler, from Alsace,
French General, was to attack from the west. I don’t know who was commanding the bolsheviks, never found out a thing about him. It was said that it
was Béla Kun. We didn’t have enough troops, I
had to put everything I had into the front line,
there were no reserves. Not good. It would have been even worse if the enemy had found it out. I therefore called upon the officer from my
headquarters and told him this: ”Go to Zilina and
from Zilina take a train to Kosice. You will take
about a hundred soldiers with you, in military
issue/linen uniforms . They will blacken their face and hands and tie a white bandana around their heads in the fashion of a turban. The bandana does not have to be too white. At each train station they will get out and walk about on the platform, speaking loudly as Senegalese. The officer reported that he didn’t have soldiers that spoke as Senegalese. I told him that it didn’t matter. They will simply blab and every so often say the word ”Senegal” very clearly. I counted on the fact that the Hungarian spies would grab unto this word, and I knew that every spy exaggerated in order to get a
bigger reward. If he saw a hundred men he would report seeing a thousand. If the Bolsheviks had informers at three stations, intelligence in Budapest would report seeing three thousand soldiers.
cont
>>
>>56960618
the text got kinda fucked up but whatever, it's still an interesting story

The officer executed my order very conscientiously. My intelligence informed me shortly after, that Budapest ”knew” in 48 hours that Franchet d’Esperey, the commanding officer of the united forces in the Balkans, sent me ‘two Senegal regiments through Romania.’ My ”Senegalese,” mostly boys from Prague-Vrsovice did a good job. The Senegal myth raveled even further, from Budapest back to the front line. We found this out when we circled a division of Bolsheviks near the river Hron and on being forced to surrender, they began jumping into the river, even the nonswimmers. We pulled them out and I said to them, ”Why are you doing this?” ”You should be glad to be taken prisoner by a decent army”. They answered: ”We are afraid . The commanding officer of the Czechs is a Negro, a cannibal”.
