 So cute and adorable.  Also, does anyone else feel like Russia in the last panel when having cramps and uh, abdominal bloating? Like "God, why did you make me a beached whale??!" |

Thanks for keeping this up Calapine. I for one appreciate it. What's Fall Weiss btw?

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Yes, by coincide(?) the last Polandball was submitted at the start of WW2. Jeff Kelly would be our resident poster for such topics but he is far too moral to make edgy comments so I am playing the role of Ersatzgerman here. Which reminds me of a factoid: Soldier slang for the Volkssturm (old peoples militia in the last months of the war) was Ersatzreserveersatz. = Replacement Reserve Replacement. Really nice from a languagr point of view, it encompasses the scrapping the bottom of the barrel nature so well. Edit: But I really would like to post more wholesome Poland balls. They are hard to find though.  |

 Not sure this the most fun Polandball ever, but it's educational, so it's good. Be honest, who does know what CAR stands for? Funfact: CAR is the country with the lowest GDP per capita in the world. It also is the lowest ranked country in the Human Development Index. |

I somehow remembered CAR from 5th grade social studies class when we had to memorize maps of every continent and cut them out of construction paper and shit. If you'd asked me five minutes ago whether that country actually still existed I'd have been stumped.

In strangely unrelated news, US Embassy Bangui is always looking for people to fill vacant positions.  |

They can't even keep a sole-officer consular section open, which should tell you something.

Staff goes native Colonel Kurtz style and the state department has to send a spec ops diplomat to take down another file registry clerk who is living as god among the primitives? "I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a Form I94-W . That's my dream; that's my nightmare. |

Friend of mine has just taken a 2 year posting to Sierra Leone. He claims it was more or less an accident as he was enquiring for someone else that was interested in the position and got the hard sell. He felt a bit too embarrassed to stop the selling and then felt the guy had spent quite a bit of time and that it would be rude to turn down the job offer.
This is how the British Civil Service staffs undesirable appointments. All the most polite civil servants are in far flung hell holes hardship postings.

Oh hey, British version of myself (I was suppose to go to Freetown for 2 years instead of Moscow, originally). Except I was told I was going after being given the illusion of choice. If things have died down a bit since the ebola outbreak, its actually not suppose to be that bad. Low violent crime, actual decent night life scene for singles, some of the nicest beaches in Africa.... You can in fact do a lot worst in West Africa!

My (American) ex-wife didn't speak much French when we lived in Paris. She knew a few words, mostly from menus. One day, she asked me, "If bananas are 'bananes' what are ananas?"
Because I am an asshole, I told her that EU regulations said that bananas that curved to the left had to be called bananes, while those that curved to the right were ananas. For a beautiful 10-15 seconds, she believed it too.
