1956 - Your connection to it

Recommended Posts

I've been to the city she lives in, and can confirm she's a girl. I've seen her walking around.

 

The rumors you've heard were true, she really used to be a stripper.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

Gabs has made me afraid to look at american-made pornography, I can never quite enjoy it knowing that theres a slight possibility that shes in it. So now I have to look at strange french films and try to guess the story :(

hmmm... i'm hungarian, or at least, i'm about a quarter hungarian. my grandfather came over the in the early 1900s as a child. that's about my only tie to hungary. no surprise that some think of it as an indictment of our education system that not every otherwise insignificant event in the whole of history is not taught in our classrooms. as if we didn't already have enough history leading up to the formation of our ignorant society anyway.

taks, I simply don't understand your statement. Of course, I'm also the product of the school system in the United States, so maybe it's just that deficiency you cite, tongue in cheek. Nevertheless, I still contend that most educated folks here had heard of the Hungarian uprising. That would include both the Americans and non-americans. Frankly, I'm unsure as to whether I learned about it in the classroom or in some other way. However, education tends to expose folks to all sorts of ideas, and not all of those ideas come in the form of classroom education. Certainly folks share ideas outside of the classroom in universities here as well as abroad?

 

As for insignificance? It made the cover of Time magazine that year. Clearly, it was not an insignificant event. I don't doubt that most Europeans, and the United States as well, don't want to dwell on a time when we failed to come to the aid of an oppressed people. I don't castigate the Western Europeans for failing to act. I don't blame the United States. To look back on it and add insult to injury by rebuking the person making the thread is idiotic. I'm not saying that's what you were doing, but Dark Raven's comments were certainly insulting and yours are, at the very least, misguided. After all, we're still talking about what happened in Hungary in 1956. As long as its significance is the topic of debate, it can't be entirely insignificant.

 

As far as Dark Raven's gender? I don't really care. No insult to her, but I don't really care if she's a 15 year old girl or a 50 year old truck driver from des Moines.

Huh? Is that a one-woman city, or what? That'd explain why she hates guys so much, what with being the only girl in the city and not getting any attention anyway...

 

What the hell am I saying, anyway? You can't fool me, Mr. (male) FBI Agent, you!

uh, not sure what you don't understand. in every case in which someone in the US is ignorant of history, we are accused of having a bad education: "unavoidable history lesson in every serious eduction system, one you don't have at all."

 

yes, we are all ignorant fools here in the US.

not me, though it has been nearly 25 years since i had any world history classes, so even if i had studied it, it's long gone into the background noise of my brain now.

i always tended to prefer the medieval period in european history (and hence, my D&D fascination) as well as the "old west" in US history. sooo, when i had the opportunity to pick my "version" of history classes, that's what i opted for.

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
