If the Germans wouldn't have bombed Pearl Harbor, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

A take on the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor in Animal House.

It is the dumbest thing about TD.

I don't know who was the first, but it has been explained to me that it comes from Animal House, the line where John Belushi talked about "the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor." It was first used to just mean something that doesn't make any sense, is something stupid, or off topic, but it evolved to mean old news over time.

And this really is Germans as hell.

Originally, When someone would post an old news story or repeated thread everyone would post the photo of "America at War" newspaper from the day after Pearl Harbor.

Then people just started quoting Animal House.

Unfortunately, it seems that is the only thing some people post on here along with grammar corrections.
