Rememberists vs Decemberists
What made the internet angry this week?
People have strong opinions about when it's appropriate to get excited about Christmas, and whatever you feel, you're probably wrong! We also discuss the folly of war, Dale drops some World War I facts, were Nazis fashionable?, even the seals in Scotland are terrifying, white people invent another persecution complex, boobs: no thanks.
#What made the internet angry this week?
People have strong opinions about when it's appropriate to get excited about Christmas, and whatever you feel, you're probably wrong! We also discuss the folly of war, Dale drops some World War I facts, were Nazis fashionable?, even the seals in Scotland are terrifying, white people invent another persecution complex, boobs: no thanks.
Talking points:
- The Facebook status that launched a dozen angry responses
- Is it ever 'too early' to get excited about Christmas?
- The Indian Army during World War I
- Watch this
- Read this
- The Hugo Boss/Nazi connection (aside: Russell Brand fucking rules)
- A podcast worth listening to
- Seals: cute, but terrifying!
- But is it really?
- Turns out there is such thing as 'too big'
