Heil, Mein Fuhrer!

One day soon, I'll stop stealing your ideas, LD. In the meantime, I'm gonna surf your brilliance. (What am I saying? I'm gonna pursue it down a dark alleyway, knock it unconscious, rifle its pockets and steal the good stuff, rite before I kick it in the kidneys and run away giggling).

SO. According to LD, there are only 5 acceptable reasons for invoking Hitler's name in a discussion (what am I, your mother? No I'm not gonna outline them - see them in their original location here).

However, and God help me 'cause I'm going to hell for this one, I believe there is a little known but immensely satisfying 6th appropriate use: when arguing the toss with a attendant at a war museum. It must be used appropriate piss and vinegar, and hopefully with the kind of person who has a warped sense of humour. Otherwise, it's just a hate crime.

• Excuse me, sir, we're closing this area of the Memorial now. If you'd like to start making your way out

English Tourist

• /pretends not hear, fiddles with camera, takes another picture of the Mustang on display/

MelWuv

• /slightly less patiently/ Sir, the Memorial is closed, and I must ask you to start making your way out. Quick as you like!

English Tourist

• /baleful stare/ I've travelled halfway around the world to be here, and this is my last opportunity to visit the Memorial. Do you mind?

MelWuv

• I can understand your frustration, sir (yes, it's pretty similar to mine when f*ckwits wanna play the whinge card), but it is closing time, and I must insist you leave this gallery so we can close and secure the building. Now

English Tourist

• You know, if I was working at an Allied war memorial, I'm not sure I'd like to align myself so closely with a totalitarian approach reminiscent of the Nazis...

MelWuv

• Oh, CHAMPAGNE SIR! You totally just won another 5 minutes in here - go nuts.

Too soon for a Hitler joke?

Oh. My. God.

My mother just told me I sound pornographic when making the bed.

THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS WRONG WITH THIS.
