re: What does Germans mean?

quote:

---

A few years ago, instead of saying "this is old news", to be smartasses, people started posting a picture of an old newspaper... most commonly that of a newspaper declaring that Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. This evolved into saying the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor as a tribute to the scene from Animal House, which someone else just mentioned-- now it is simply shortened to "Germans!" without giving context.

Not quite.....When someone would post old news people would respond by saying things like we landed on the moon or the Japanese Bomb Pearl Harbor, which eventually turned into the Germans Bomb Pearl Harbor (Animal House reference) and that eventually turned into just Germans.

Yes, like the rantards starting forty threads a day about how excited they are Sheppard is coming.
