Regardless of how it may be regarded by people on the Brown Line Train here in Chicago, once I start saying this guy’s name, I can’t stop, it’s like a mantra…Putzi Hanfstangl, Putzi Hanfstangl…

Well, I’m no fan of the Nazi political program, but if Coldy is hanging out in the woods with big, blond, shirtless German guys (yes, I know you’re Dutch) like in Leni Riefenstahl’s **Triumph of the Will** , sign me up!

MMMM, big, blonde, shirtless guys!

No, but he has annexed the Sudatenland.

Honestly, some one needs to go out to MPSIMS and GQ (or where ever this guy comes from) and tell them what happens to people who bitch about mods in the Pit. Maybe we can send a few of jjason’s toes, as a warning.

No, the correct way to phrase it is “manny people ask me and now I wonder, is manhattan a nazi?”

I think that’s Ed. Or maybe he’s the petty tin-pot dictator with the power trip…

Nah, Ed’s the crazy hermit who uses the SDMB printed flyers as a bird costume, and he flaps around his office shrieking “Caw, caw!”

I think **slythe-renamed-Czarcasm** is the jack-booted thug. Either that, or he’s the post-suburban neo-anarchist with a penchant for adolescent cheerleaders…

**Manhattan** , as with any other Doper, is a person with whom I do not always agree. However, in light of recent accusations levelled against him, he is gaining more of my sympathy by the minute.

Little wonder the poor bugger had to go on sabbatical.

Sure there is. I’m a Mussolinian Fascist, myself. Now, if you’ll excuse me, someone’s knocking, so I think I may have to go and surrender.

There you go again… mixing French and Italian!

It is an entirely French-Pavlovian response to -upon hearing a knock on the door- open the gates, roll out the red carpet all the way to the Champs Elysées, drop to your knees, kiss SS-boots, and generally make a complete tit out of yourself to everyone around you. 😃
