Come along then, Tommy... before zee Germans get here...

There is a large basketball camp going on here, and a labmate of mine was walking by while a team was getting ready to take a court after half-time. It was apparent by the long faces that they were losing, and my buddy heard one of the coaches say:

"C'mon girls... we didn't give up when the Germans were bombing Pearl Harbor, did we?!?"

In cases like this, I really wonder how we became a superpower... not only is the overall notion of invoking any World War II references in a middle-school girls' basketball camp completely retarded, but it was the friggin' Japanese, not the Germans!

Asshat...

P.S. The title is a "Snatch" reference, in case you were wondering... a favorite movie of mine...
