You know, that one clip from the film Downfall has to be
the most recycled Academy Award nominee in history. It’s got more incarnations
than the inhabitants of a large Tibetan monastery. You know the one: where Hitler is huddled in the
Führerbunker deploying non-existent armies in the defense of Berlin while
waiting for the Old Gods to smite the Red Army for good and all.
I myself have brought a couple to your attention:
the one purporting to have our Adolf going mental at discovering CalTrans is
going to close the 405 Freeway in LA, resulting in Carmageddon.
He asks the eternal question: how’s he supposed to get to LAX? “Fucking
Sepulveda? Please!”
I feel his pain.
I feel his pain.
And the one where he’s just learned what real defeat is: when your software hosting provider screws
the pooch and you take a look at the fine print of your service level
agreement (SLA). The thought of Hitler and Goering starting out programming in COBOL is just cherce.
But Third Reich 2.0’s latest installment (that I
know of, as of this writing) gives new meaning to the tagline, “Don’t be evil.”
It.has our intrepid Nazi receiving the news that Google
Reader is shutting down, because the monolith needs to focus on a few
products, like Google Glass.
“Fuck those fucking glasses and the nerd they
rode in on.” I’m looking forward to seeing those words on a tee-shirt sometime
soon.
¡Daß ist ausgezeichnet!
