Quick question that I've been curious about for weeks: I've never heard the term Norks anywhere outside of this board and have asked a couple other people and they've never heard it either. Where does that come from? Is it a military thing?
No they're called "inbreds." Anyone have a good guess what kind of casualties and civilian impact we're looking at if Kim jung shithead does fire a nuclear missile and the US retaliates?
Hey, man, I don't make the rules. I'm still trying to get people to understand that y'all is a contraction of you all, an the apostrophe therefore falls between the y and the a. It's not ya'll, anymore than it's did'nt or di'dnt.
Nope. Its like forecasting hurricane damage. You'll have experts making well founded guesses, but in reality its like watching a hurricane approaching. The storm may cause a lot or a little damage, depends on so many things and on luck for either side. Some people say upwards in the millions considering Seoul is right next door and Japan isn't too far away. Who knows really though. Its like asking how many reps Audrey would get if she posted in the Boobie Thread.
Operation Paul Bunyan sounded pretty intimidating, that's for sure. "60 troops armed with pistols and axe handles". You have to think that they were really, REALLY hoping some North Koreans would come along and complain about them cutting down the tree.
I think the Norks were probably more intimidated by the B52's, Cobras, & F4's that were right behind the guys with axe handles.. I doubt they knew about all the C-130's lined up in Japan ready to take off at a moments notice. All of that over a fucking tree.
I can't even tell if you guys think this is the answer to the question I was asking or if you're being silly but nobody panic, I got the answer in a rep. THANK YOU, TODDAMUS.
First of all, always assume I am being silly. But second, do what now? Because if the answer for "where Norks comes from" isn't "a slang contraction of North Korea," then I wish todd would post his answer here. I have no idea what you were asking, then.
She is asking who originated that slang. Was it how the US Military referred to them during the Korean War? Was it a derogatory term the Jappos came up with? etc.
I also said it'd be impossible to know how many likes you'd get from the Boobie Thread so what do I know
Well according to here it's more than Nett's dad dying but not as much as toytoy or dixie's parents dying.
In fairness you did say it belongs in the bikini thread. And yes, I'm sure Rush would agree this belongs in the Serious thread. Take half measures and things don't turn out the way they could have.
