I, for one, love it. A little gaff at the start, but otherwise that made me laugh.

@Corto
Not sure you even read the tweet. If you dissect the humor a bit more closely, you’ll see that we’re calling Hitler a douchebag. But you’re right, that’s probably not far enough. We should have gone for double-douchebag status.

yeah, I’m amazed that you spelled your name like that as well, “Adolph”.

You wrote my great-grandmother a letter and signed it personally, thanking her for working for so many years in Germany, back in, I believe ‘42-’43…give or take. My grandmother has the letter and has shown it to me a couple of times.

You signed it “Adolf”…just curious…what’s the deal?

Autism? Retardation? Judaism?

Huh? Tweets as historically accurate documents? Twitter would then be the news source for those that think grunting is too time consuming.

Lets see this as a humorous account of how the world could have been…without getting into the details like dates and time and place. Appreciate the idea at least!

No one said that these were accurate, just that they were complete and utter factual events that really happened on Twitter, written by the exact people that you see attributed, using the technology most people think was invented in the early 21st century. We know all about history, and the historical facts history is based on.

Okay, okay, we admit that while this is a site that exhibits tweets that wouldn’t be appropriate to include in a classroom as fact, we do believe that it does contain tweets that students don’t think are boring.

Boring never started a good conversation.

Look, if you’re going to do this, can you at least do it with some level of accuracy? This is sad and pathetic. I was going to use this site as an example on courses that I run, but if this is the best that you can do I’ll look elsewhere.

[...] schön: Ice Cube, der am 23.002.1993 offensichtlich keinen guten Tag hatte. Oder Hitler – und wie im Januar 1923 alles begann. [...]

Ah Mark, you caught us with our proverbial pants down. It is indeed Adolf, not Adolph. Or perhaps @Adolf was taken?

That mustache will make you stand out in a crowd. So will spelling your name that way. Everybody else spells it “Adolf.”
