every time he calls it the 1917 flu. I swear he does it on purpose just to piss us off. Surely by now, someone has told him it was 1918. I have to say though, I had no idea it helped to end World War II.

Once all the Germans were warlike and mean
But that couldn't happen again
We taught them a lesson in 1918
And they've hardly bothered us since then
