I remember having my picture taken years ago with a bit of seaweed under my nose doing the roman salute, i'd probably get 20 years for that nowadays
Thomas Parker
I would imagine so yeah lol what a bunch of fucking spoilsports
Julian Young
If it went viral, you'd lose your job, be kicked out of university if applicable and probably need to change your name to have a career in the 10 years after that.
>the roman salute also a myth
sorry, couldn't help myself lad.
Landon Thomas
Is it not actually roman
Jonathan Mitchell
anyone else disgusted with this talk about ending austerity? Not happy that tories are gonna start growing government desu
Landon Allen
That was me, kek. I've made most of the Pictposting memes too.
Samuel Hughes
Fucking sad world now, isn't it? Don't worry, when we're all chipped, they'll remove those urges for us.
Jaxson Wilson
Apparently the holes in that thing are for the pony's ears not for it's eyes.
Gabriel Price
Isn't austerity just a lie anyway? Don't know much about it, but I can't take anything they say at face value.
Adrian Johnson
Nope, >In contemporary times, the former is widely considered a symbol of fascism that is commonly perceived to be based on a custom in ancient Rome.
>However, no Roman text gives this description, and the Roman works of art that display salutational gestures bear little resemblance to the modern Roman salute.
Is that a Celt or German? I know who you are lad, you're in Brit/pol/ as much as I am.
You must be a bit worried about that because I am.
Napoleon's portrait is alright. Not very accurate for a short sickly man, but nor is that depiction very good propaganda for a general.
Colton Howard
>Because of the similarity between the Bellamy salute and the Nazi salute that emerged in Germany in the 1920s, President Franklin D. Roosevelt instituted the hand-over-the-heart gesture as the salute to be rendered by civilians during the Pledge of Allegiance and the national anthem in the United States, instead of the Bellamy salute.[24] This was done when Congress officially adopted the Flag Code on June 22, 1942.[25] There was initially some resistance to dropping the Bellamy salute, for example from the Daughters of the American Revolution.[26]
I wonder why Germany copied an American salute. And I wonder if Americans thought they were copying the Romans by doing that.
Every country in history had a period they LARPed as Rome.
Logan Hall
Suppose he couldn't make it too accurate. Must be difficult, pandering to the whims of tyrants.
Austin Lopez
Been reading about Revolutionary France. That has to be one of the all time great Classical Larps. They were obsessed.
Luis Lee
>Must be difficult, pandering to the whims of tyrants. Why bother?
I don't know whether or not he intended it as such, maybe not given his religion, but Cromwell could've easily been a new Caesar had he not been totally unsuccessful.
A tyrant coming to power and overthrowing the long-standing form of government, and assuming absolute power themselves but discreetly, and then handing power to their (adopted) sons.
Cromwell's son was just terrible though.
Hard for them to cut anybodies balls off when you devastate their army and leave a short sickly man alone
Yep, and changing the months. 12th Brumaire 1. Fucking stupid.
Owen Rodriguez
Ah, you were dealing in specifics, I in generalities. I should have looked at your image.
Dylan Clark
>for a laugh Ha... yeah... same reason I want to buy full lorica segmentata and a gladius & pila... just for a laugh, not like those other losers. Heh.
I know, I just grabbed the first image. Even modern recreationists look silly though.
Matthew Gonzalez
Exactly I like the stahlhelm more but it wouldn't feel right as an englishman Yeah, I don't think the modern average male really suits the look to be honest.
What do you mean? Revolutionary France LARPing as Graeco-Romans from Antiquity is a totally adequate example friendo.
I don't know what the Founding Fathers of America were doing. They ripped off Roman Republicanism and English common law with balanced constitutionalism. I'd probably throw them in there though too.
If we get started on Popes, this is going to be a long night. I guess they believed the stories of them being the successor to Roman Emperors.
Aiden Powell
It's been a good night tonight. I don't come here that often anymore, but tonight's got me back into it a bit.
Easton Baker
It dies way earlier than it used to, otherwise comfy hours was always the best time.
Any one remember old landscape posting?
Parker Perry
I meant about the tyrants and the ball cutting mate. Gets a bit confusing a times.
Isaiah Clark
>Any one remember old landscape posting? ah, yes. comfy times.
I do. Do people still architecture post all the time?
Oliver King
CAHM ON THERESA DO US A LITTLE JIG MY SON!

Indeed. Not significant enough to really remember but I had a huge file of images titled "Britain" I used to post which was comfy pics and landscapes.
They usually provoked angry little dicklets to come in the thread and start pitting their own countries architecture and geography against it if that rings any bells. The yank who got to 30 PBTID before he realised we weren't in a posting competition and I was doing it regardless kek.
The threads used to survive back to 7am and then the full day back then too. 24/7 shit/pol/ which is brilliant if you're a neet.
I wasn't for a while, and since threads seem to die around 4-5am.
the tribal hidage. record of land ownership in anglo-saxon england. a hide was a measurement of land (enough land to support a family, basically - the size of a hide depended on the quality of the land).
Christopher James
as i recall she told him off for being disrespectful
Christopher Ward
The only thing I remember is everybody calling him a loser on his dramatic goodbye.
also turns out I was OP of the thread he fucked off in, pretty good guess given the hours i've pissed away.
Some guy was using the name "Rightly No" a while back and there was a polite (clearly autistic) user responding to him, asking him politely to stop using that name.
I'm assuming only he could be that socially awkward so he was alive up until then but I choose to believe he still posts. I was worried until then because he was on about suicide on the day.
northumbria isn't on the chart, it only documents kingdoms south of the humber. just posted it to showcase the power of souf f.c. represented by wessex.
Julian Wright
What a loser
Evan Morgan
Northumbria was two kingdoms for a while, Bernicia and Deira, and I don't think all that powerful. Not compared to Wessex and Mercia anyway, so that part hasn't changed.
Can you explain further because I quite like Mosley and would prefer it if he wasn't an Irish nationalist
Jackson Harris
In all my time and experience looking at Mosley's policies, listening to Mosley's speeches and reading Mosley related material, I have never ever seen him bring up the subject of Irish nationalism or "founding the IRA" as Eddie likes to claim. It's clearly just a troll tactic
Tyler Peterson
Yeah me neither, I think the troll theory is reinforced by the fact that he loves to post that recoloured union jack with the BUF symbol at every mention of Mosley
Dominic Jackson
He made a good point once, overused it and began to exaggerate, argued over it, got widely mocked for it, and then turned it into le quirky things drunk man in car says XDDDDD
The state. Like common law vs civil law. Something I agree with him on but he does it as bait. I guess meme is accurate but cringe.
Ian Perez
Also he only became anti-Mosley because everybody on Jow Forums was pro-Mosley and LARPed as if he was God's son on earth.
Xavier Mitchell
If he was simply pandering to the Irish for votes then I don't really care but Eddie likes to claim that Mosley wanted less toughness on the republicans and that he wanted to give NI to them etc
Ask Eddie for his non meme answer when he is back on
David Bell
>Eddie likes to claim And he likes to be contrarian. That's what he's good at. Somethings he's right on but some he does specifically to annoy LARPers on here even if he tries to make it logical and ends up believing it himself.
