Strength Weekly wishes all its readers the warmest and most relaxing Christmas that their personal belief systems will accommodate. Two items must be shared at this special time: the first has given sublime pleasure to many throughout 2007 while the second has coarser charms.

17 years later I revisited this brief seasonal trinket and discovered that the very amusing Hitler ‘Downfall’ Parody Meme Video, originally supplied above in clickable form, so popular at the time and deservedly so, was not only unavailable but nowhere to be found in the vastness of YouTube despite there being literally several hundred variants archived on that platform. In order to track it down and repost it I tried to remember what had made me laugh so much and it had something to do with invigoratingly unacceptable language (most of the memes deliver this) and football (many of the memes feature this). I scrolled for a while but then became dispirited. I had a few laughs en route but they fell in the shadow of the 2007 variant, which was a rarity in the field  back on the day.
