Today is the anniversary of D-Day. 61 years ago today, over a hundred thousand Allied troops stormed the five beaches of Normandy, after spending upwards of three puke-inducing days bobbing in the English Channel (or, in the case of the paratroopers, spending the night being tossed about the insides of cargo planes that were being shot out of the sky), and began the eleven-month campaign to free Western Europe.
Therefore, SITYSK™ is calling on all nations of the world that today enjoy freedom to publicly thank the Allied nations (especially America, dangnabbit!) for having the gumption to save the world from its own stupidity, and by paying for the world's stupidity in the blood of their young men.
We further call on all world organizations *cough*Amnesty*cough* to take just one day off from their zeal-filled quest to degrade America, even though just about every nation in the whole world owes its freedom to us, in one way or another.
We will stand by, holding our breath in anticipation.

Somebody remind me to start breathing again when the world once again shows some signs of common sense.
