As a child of the 80s/90s I would like to thank @JeffreyTheGreek for singlehandedly bringing back the term tallywacker to the mainstream, man that took me right back!
50 BC: the tallest men a Roman legion ever faced were the Germans and the Celts, and they lived on the herd. Caesar wrote it down through gritted teeth.
800: the tallest people in Europe were the Norse, and they lived on butter, cheese, fish and salt meat.
1850: the tallest people on earth were the Cheyenne and the Sioux, and they lived on bison.
1899: the shortest men in the British army came out of the mill towns, and they lived on bread, tea and jam.
1954: the shortest people in the developed world were the Japanese. Milk went into every school lunch that year and they grew 10cm inside a generation.
2000: the two Koreas shared a language, a border and a set of grandparents, and the south, on beef and eggs, stood up to 8cm above the north, on rice.
2026: the tallest people on earth are the Dutch, and they drink more milk per head than any nation alive.
Height is the only nutrition survey that cannot be funded, fudged or reworded by a committee.
It is taken against a wall, in front of a mother, and it has returned the same verdict on every continent for 2,000 years.
The tall ones had the herd. The short ones had the field.
The baby killer fanatics are seriously going to lynch the black guy on the jury just because he wasn't OK with Lindsay Clancy being exonerated for brutally killing her 3 toddlers. They're now trying to dig up dirt on him to ruin his life. These people are nuts.
The Lindsey Clancy jury is a microcosm of what has happened to the United States of America as a whole.
We have nine psychotic, white liberal women screaming and yelling.
We have two beta male cucks with 3 inch dicks, unwilling to push back.
And we have one single brave, American patriot with the courage to take a stand.
Not really. Those of us who grew up before 9/11 remember what our country was like before our government responded to it by launching two of the dumbest wars in our history and then using the results of those wars to flood the West with the very kind of demonic inbred retards behind 9/11.
You can’t understand the rage we feel because you have no concept of what we lost as a people. It wasn’t just the violence of that day, which was horrific in itself. It wasn’t just watching people hurl themselves off of buildings on live television just to avoid being burned alive. It wasn’t just hearing the phone calls and voicemails from people who knew they would be dead within minutes. That would be more than enough to scar a generation.
But on top of that, we had to watch the best of us then get sent off to be blown up in wars our government had zero interest in winning. All while watching our country be flooded with people who were no different than the hijackers, and then being told we were racist for having a problem with that.
We grew up at the peak of peace and prosperity and cultural cohesion in the greatest country on earth. And we saw all of it thrown away after 9/11 because the people in charge of our country thought never-ending wars, infinity immigration, and surveillance of its own people was better than being called mean by people who already wanted us dead.
@JeffreyTheGreek@Avery4Heisman_ Currently in the Black Hills, it’s 60 degrees and I’m questioning my life choices of having to pack up and head back into the crematorium that is eastern Nebraska.. Go Hawks!
