There has been much talk of Nazis this week, a lot more than usual. In a usual week, the Nazis hardly get mentioned at all. You hardly see any of them around anymore. They've all gone.

But! What if some of them haven't gone completely? What if they have gone underground? Picture the scene, a bunker somewhere deep inside the Amazon basin. There is a complex temperature control system, and rows and rows of Nazis in suspended animation, waiting for the right moment to awake and come above ground to assert their ideology again. Oh no! This is why I am ready and waiting for them, this is why I have my own Nazi outfit hanging up in my wardrobe, so I can go undercover if this apocalyptic scenario ever comes to pass.

Not that I think this is all that likely. But I am ready, are you?

Another lad who is ready is Prince Harry. Now, on the surface we appear to have little in common. He is red-haired, 20 years old, has lived a life of luxury and sits/stands third in line to the British throne. I, on the other hand, am black-haired, a creaking 32, grew up on a rubbish mound, and am a long long way down the pecking order for the British throne.

But! But!

Dig deeper and you will discover we have two things in common

1) We both dislike authority
2) We both have Nazi uniforms

The difference is I am not famous, and have never been invited to a "Colonials and Natives" party by a bunch of coke-snorting aristocrats (more's the pity). Personally, I would've gone dressed as a tiger, although the fear is always that some inbreed will pull out a shotgun after their 500th glass of champagne and decide to "procure myself a jolly good rug for the guest bedroom". This is why I would've gone as my second choice, a Zulu warrior.

I would not have contemplated going as a Nazi.

So - my question is this...

How similar to Prince Harry are you?

why do you own a Nazi uniform?

― Star Cauliflower (Star Cauliflower), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 00:56 (twenty-one years ago)

it just seems perverse and racist, not to mention childish and stupid.

― Star Cauliflower (Star Cauliflower), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 00:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Jesus christ, log off the internet you fuckin' dunderhead.

― Hari A$hur$t (Toaster), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 00:59 (twenty-one years ago)

in answer to star cauliflower, i missed off my disclaimer. i never thought it'd be needed, but here it is, folks

"Please note: I don't really own a Nazi uniform, but this is what columnists such as myself, who are more in thrall to the idea of being punchy and fun than to hankering after the facts, do. We make stuff up. We are bad."

all healed now?

― extreme unction, Tuesday, 18 January 2005 01:03 (twenty-one years ago)

it's ok if you read the actual link he said he doesn't actually own the uniform. he just pretends to be a childish and stupid perverse racist.

xpost obv!

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 01:04 (twenty-one years ago)

i didn't think it was that childish! i thought having the uniform just in case may be a smart idea. i've thought before that a riot police uniform would be just the thing to pop myself into if a police state was beginning to form itself

My older brother? Way more confident and less gay than me.

A friend of mine once got drunk, shaved his facial hair into a hitler moustache as a joke, then forgot about it and went to a party.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 18 January 2005 05:38 (twenty-one years ago)

i think it's fine to own a Nazi uniform but that sort of thing should really stay in the bedroom

I am not like Prince Harry at all. I don't have red hair, I am not a soldier, I am not the illegitimate son of a soldier, my mum's not dead, my mum never dated the son of the owner of Harrods, I have never dressed up as a nazi, or smoked weed, or snorted cocaine and I do not have a top new job marching up and down in front of my granny's house.

I love how periodically people who don't like the British royal family, including me, accuse them of not even being "proper" royalty. As if that would make them any better.
