Forget anything and everything I have written previously. All else pales in comparison to the headline news I have to share. A declassified secret report and psychological profile has recently come to light about Adolf Hitler. This confidential record about Hitler’s personal habits had been stored somewhere in a dusty attic in Great Britain for over 60 years. The papers have been authenticated and are due to be put up for private auction. I will not keep you in suspense due to their historical importance and sheer educational value. Once you read the document, 20th century world history and geopolitics will make a lot more sense, even to us laypersons, amateur history buffs and armchair observers.
Apparently Hitler was a vegetarian who also ate “prodigious” amount of cake and other high lactose dairy products. As a result he suffered from chronic, unremitting and completely uncontrolled flatulence. In fact, he farted so often and so “forcefully” that his table mates and dinner guests were regularly disgusted and appalled. Worse yet, they couldn’t say anything. How do you tell a fascist megalomaniac madman and homicidal tyrant, “Dude, could you cut that farting out? You’re making us sick.” You just cant. He would have had you summarily shot or sent to the Eastern front.
You might ask why this is so important? I’ll tell you why. Many respected historians continue to ponder why after years of tremendous military success, the Third Reich’s final demise was so swift and seemingly chaotic. Many of his closest advisors and trusted confidantes abandoned him in the end. In one of his last statements he called the German people, “cowards, traitors, and unworthy of their destiny”. Now stop and think about the last time you had really really bad gas, diarrhea, and farted like a pirate on Cinco de Mayo (like at my house last nite). Then think about watching your personal plans for world domination crumble around you while you are stuck in a poorly ventilated concrete bunker dozens of feet below the bombed out burning ruins of Berlin. Even with state of the art German engineering and scientific know how, the toilet facilities in the Fuhrer bunker were considered primitive at best. Ironically, the Nazis were much better at using gas to kill others than getting rid of their own. There isn’t enough Gas-X and Imodium on planet Earth to cure that severe a GI problem in that limited subterranean space and the Fuhrer’s flatus could have only led the rest of Hitler’s formerly loyal staff and military advisors to want to “abandon ship” or take cyanide capsules as a quick way out and “final solution”… so to speak. All together it was a deadly combination of fearless leader fumes as well as olfactory induced stress that explains why Hitler’s Third Reich state meant to last a thousand years crumbled like moldy limburger cheese in the spring of 1945….and probably stunk just as bad. Regarding Hitler’s propensity for broccoli, cake, cocaine, and occasional injections of bull semen on the advice of his personal physician Dr. Morell, we can only speculate on their collective synergistic as well as psychoactive side effects. Just imagining it makes me want to run to the bathroom. With this written report coming to light I believe we can call this baffling military mystery finally solved and flush this previously unanswered “up in the air” question down the poopenfarten for good.
