While travelling through Germany I gained access to a little-known archive beneath Hamburg Town Hall. After several hours of research, two steins of lager, and a misunderstanding involving a hot barmaid and a bratwurst, I uncovered the truth.  The hamburger was indeed named after Hamburg, but not for the reason most people think.  In the 14th century Hamburg was plagued by a man called Klaus Burger - a long distant relative of Johannes Christian Trump, a resident of the small German village of Kallstadt - the village idiot in the village from where all the idiots from the villages missing their idiot ended up.  Every time something went catastrophically wrong, the townsfolk would throw up their hands and shout: "Ach... Burger!"  A farmer marries his cousin only to discover she's already married to another cousin? The double Burger - yes, thats another origin.  Eventually local taverns began serving a cheap pile of minced meat between two slices of bread. It was messy, questionable, and usually regretted the following morning. Naturally, they named it after Klaus.  The "ham" part was added centuries later when an English tourist overheard "Hamburg Burger" after fourteen pints and assumed it contained ham. Nobody corrected him because Germany had already spent several hundred years trying, unsuccessfully, to explain things to the British and they didn't want to get head butted.  So that explains the Whitehouse link, the claim Trump's invented is only partially accuratel And now, according to recently declassified documents,  highlighting a generational link - he [Trump] did not invent the hamburger. He merely increased its diameter by 40%, renamed it the Freedom Burger, and insisted it was the greatest burger ever created, perhaps in human history, many people are saying it.  Then America gave the world the Smashed Burger - Historians remain divided on its origins, although some believe the name was inspired by a certain New York socialite who had spent many years becoming thoroughly acquainted with regularly getting on the receiving end of a good old fashioned 'smashing' before crossing paths with any future president - initially called the Melinda Burger - initially with added layers of brisket symbolising the labia majora - the beef-curtains... later adjusted to 'bacon' for that salty taste.  Later, following a highly successful labia majoraplasty, The next leap in culinary history is said to have been have pioneered - The Malinda Cream Pie was invented. According to rumour, the event was captured on a nanny-cam and subsequently locked away in the same archive as the Epstein files.  Shortly thereafter, the Cheeseburger entered the history books.  Sadly, most of the original records have disappeared. Some say they were destroyed in a fire. Others claim they are locked in a vault somewhere between the JFK files and Hunter Biden's laptop.  Either way, the official story has been flattened, repackaged and supersized beyond recognition, which, coincidentally, is also how Americans prefer their burgers and their political discourse.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:01:24 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israeli Strikes Kill 18 in Lebanon as Four IDF Soldiers Die</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397084-israeli-strikes-kill-18-in-lebanon-as-four-idf-soldiers-die/?do=findComment&comment=20562145]]></link><description>got it,  your team lost all 3 and you are bitter.   like the chine and arabs do? wonder which countries shell out the most cash.......  the military lol</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:00:41 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Time For Regime Change, In Israel.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397091-time-for-regime-change-in-israel/?do=findComment&comment=20562144]]></link><description>If Mossad and the IDF are worth their pay, they would have found actual terrorist fighters and eliminated them instead of whole bombing civilian targets.

I am not arguing about whether OpenAI succeeds, fails, explodes, implodes, or gets exposed as the next Theranos. That has nothing to do with my comment.  I have watched the same analyses, read the same criticisms, and understand the same risks you do. The difference is that I do not feel the need to start a new topic about Sam Altman every time he farts. If OpenAI collapses tomorrow, my reaction will be, &#x201C;Interesting.&#x201D; Your reaction will be, &#x201C;At last, my life&#x2019;s work is complete.&#x201D;  The point is that you have been posting essentially the same Sam Altman topic for months now. Every development, every rumor, every article, every YouTube video somehow becomes another chapter in the same endless sermon. The fact that you genuinely believe you are warning humanity does not make it any less repetitive.  The amusing part is that your defense amounts to, &#x201C;Yes, I keep talking about him, but I have a good reason.&#x201D; That is exactly what every obsessed person says.  If Sam Altman were to disappear tomorrow, I suspect there would be a noticeable hole in your weekly posting schedule. Frankly, I am no longer sure whether you are trying to save the world from Sam Altman or save Sam Altman from being forgotten.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 12:41:37 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Time For Regime Change, In Israel.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397091-time-for-regime-change-in-israel/?do=findComment&comment=20562137]]></link><description>Whether they know it or not, it's in their interest to stop the wholesale slaughter.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 12:41:08 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20562136]]></link><description>Floral</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 12:40:57 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Politics, PC, un-PC, any subject, Satire via MEME or Vid (shorts)</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1325294-politics-pc-un-pc-any-subject-satire-via-meme-or-vid-shorts/?do=findComment&comment=20562135]]></link><description>Thank you Obama ...</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_06/image.png.e24562cd3a8fb55b3ca938d13ec345b1.png" length="73711" type="image/png"/><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 12:40:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Who invented the Hamburger ?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397158-who-invented-the-hamburger/?do=findComment&comment=20562134]]></link><description>German origins of which was just a boring slab of meat.

That is not true. They were the elected leaders. But nice try.   From the Grok AI piece I posted:  "In June 2007, after months of tension, Hamas violently seized full control of Gaza from Fatah in a civil war (often called the Battle of Gaza). Dozens were killed.  Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas (Fatah) dismissed the Hamas government. Hamas has ruled Gaza de facto ever since as an authoritarian regime, while Fatah/PA controls parts of the West Bank.  No national or legislative elections have been held in Gaza (or the Palestinian territories overall) since 2006. Multiple planned votes (e.g., 2021) were postponed.
