Actually, there's something that kinda irks me. The weird... stab-offs? Knifing competitions? That seem to happen every so often in melee. It makes sense when you're wrestling off a dog, but with a soldier, with both of you just stabbing at each other, I dunno why I find it odd.

That's my favourite one. It's like BJ and the Nazi are having a slapfight. With knives.

Inmate A: "Why are you in the gulag?"
Inmate B: "I spoke out against [Political Figure]. You?"

Inmate C: "I am [Political Figure]."


"'But doctor', he says, 'I am Pagliacci.'
Good joke. Everybody laughs. Roll on snare drum."

There's another Soviet joke, that goes something like this:

An old man is interrogated by the KGB.
The interrogator asks him: "Where were you born?"
The old man answers: "Saint Petersburg."
The interrogator nods, and hits the old man in the stomach. He asks: "Where did you go to school?"
The old man, coughing: "Petrograd."
The interrogator hits the old man again, and says: Where do you live now?"
The old man says: "Leningrad."
The interrogator asks the old man again, gun to his head: "Where would you like to die?"
The old man answers: "Saint Petersburg."

Metal Gear Solid 3, or any of them since they're all pretty much revolving around nuclear weapons?

To be fair, the MGS games point out how terrifying nukes are, and how using them is universally a horrible idea.

E: And the only people using a nuke (or threatening to do so) are villains.

One thing from the last video that really stood out to me is that Frau Blucher must have been a great ventriloquist, since she can enunciate that well without having any lips.

Nuclear Diver would make a pretty good name for a power metal concept album.

He is lost in the Cherenkov sea.

Hell, I'd be willing to buy it from studying the Old Testament.

Well... The Old Testament speaks of a God who makes a covenant with his chosen people and saves them from bondage through miraculous intervention.

The point of the covenant is that they shall be holy (as their Father in heaven is holy), so that they can be a nation of priests to the rest of the world.

The Old Testament God is a God who constantly seeks his people and wishes to have a relationship with them.
