Say, does anyone remember Vic Hitler, the narcoleptic comic on _Hill Street Blues_?

All of the [cats that look like Hitler](https://www.google.com/search?q=hitler+cats&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjG55nF4MLYAhXYqYMKHUZRDKYQ_AUICigB&biw=1155&bih=736) are female ([I think](http://www.bio.miami.edu/dana/dox/calico.html)).

My washing machine is making a very disturbing noise.

As noisy as German tanks rolling through Poland during the Blitzkrieg? You know who ordered that? Hitler, that’s who.

Locally, it’s pretty windy.

You know who was _also_ windy? That vegetarian cabbage-muncher, Hitler.

The centipede was happy, quite  
Until a toad, in fun,  
Said: Pray, which leg goes after which?  
This worked his mind to such a pitch  
He lay distracted in a ditch  
Considering how to run.

You know who else ran? Hitler did; for President of Germany in 1932.

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves  
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;  
All mimsy were the borogoves,  
And the mome raths outgrabe.

You know who read a German translation of [Jabberwocky](http://www76.pair.com/keithlim/jabberwocky/translations/german1.html)? Hitler.

It’s too cold and snowy outside.

Too cold and snowy? You want somebody to keep you warm and fed? Why don’t you call your buddy Hitler? He founded the **Winterhilfswerk des Deutschen Volkes** (English: “Winter Relief of the German People”), commonly known by its abbreviated form **Winterhilfswerk** or **WHW**. Its slogan was “None shall starve or freeze”. It ran from 1933–1945 during the months of October through March, and was designed to provide food, clothing, coal, and other items to less fortunate Germans during the inclement months. COAL! You want to increase the ozone hole just to warm your precious snowflake tootsies?

I’m excited about the NFL Wild Card playoffs this weekend.

You’re excited for NFL, huh? I guess you mean Nazis For Lebensraum. The kind of thing Hitler was all about.

And you know what the Nazi said to the starving Russian who asked him for oatmeal?

The premise behind the Hunger Plan was that Germany was not self-sufficient in food supplies;\[citation needed...

Do you ever get the feeling that the Nazis were all about Epic Fails?
