a war of words and nuclear build-up between the usa and its allies (the west) and the communist world dominated by the ussr and china (the east). although it never amounted to any full-scale nuclear war, it was a major excuse for military build-ups, nuclear arms races, and m-ssive propaganda from both sides. was ended by mikhail gorbachev, the russian premier from 1985-1991. gorbachev worked for peace with the west, and slowly brought russian communism to a close. the ussr finally collapsed under mikhail’s successor, boris yeltsin.
there are a lot of nukes left over from the cold war.
the cold war began following the end of world war ii when the united states of america and the union of soviet socialist republics (ussr or the soviet union) emerged as the world’s two superpowers, and subsequently the world’s greatest pr-ck-waving compet-tion began.
at the end of world war ii europe lay in ruins. the soviet union took hand to several eastern european countries while the united states and britain took on the western and some southern countries. many countries, such as greece at the end of wwii which were occupied by the n-z-s fell into civil war with two sides fighting against each other, each taking the influence of either western political ideals or soviet ideals. once everything was set, there were now two sides: half of europe under the influence of western policies and the other half under soviet. the two sides opposed each other and as the two sole superpowers, worked to try and gain the sphere of political influence on the world. communism spreading and the united states working frantically to try and contain it in a series of proxy wars. and so began what would be known as the world’s biggest and greatest pr-ck-waving compet-tion in excistence.
to put it in a nutsh-ll, at the start of the cold war, the united states, and it’s capitalistic ideals, and the soviet union, with it’s communist ideals, both had just about equally sized p-n-ses. it was now a battle to impress the world of which had the bigger p-n-s in order to try and influence it. the us and ussr went at it for the next fifty odd years.
nato was formed in 1949, thus making the united states’ p-n-s growing slightly larger than the ussr’s. nato was basically an agreement between several countries in defense to any enemy attack. the ussr suddenly felt emasculated by the size of the united states’ p-n-s and thus made a plan to extend their own by forming the warsaw pact in 1955. the warsaw pact was the ussr’s response mostly to west germany being signed into nato and felt the need of creating it in strategic defense. tensions grew between the two superpowers due in part by the fact that by the 1950s the world was now fully realized that the ussr was developing nuclear weapons and testing then (the first nuclear bomb test in the ussr was “first lightning, or rds-1, nicknamed by the us “joe 1” after a nickname given to joseph stalin, who was still ruler of the ussr at the time until his death in 1953.) , trying to out-nuke the us and showing them that they indeed, had the larger c-ck now. this lead to an increase in nuclear development in the united states, in order to try and catch up to it’s arch-enemy and keep itself from getting pulverized by it’s throbbing manhood.
the united states had been developing nuclear weapons long before the soviet union had, it’s first nuclear test “trinity” on july 16, 1945 under the “manhattan project.” the nuclear weapons were developed throughout wwii out of fear of discovery of it’s power being discovered by n-z- germany, and felt they needed to create them asap. by the end of wwii, germany had been defeated along with several of it’s alliances and j-pan was the sole axis power remaining. the soviet union declared war on j-pan and the united states initially devised a plan called “operation downfall” which would have been the invasion of j-pan. at that time, though, they’d just squeezed out years of research and development on nuclear weapons initially focused on germany, but since germany had already been defeated, they must have figured “eeehh, f-ck it” and dropped two buckets ‘o sunshine on j-pan. nagasaki and hiroshima were bombed to sh-t. there is much debate to this day about either or not nuclear weapons should have been used or not. in it’s defense it was believed that casualties would have been drastically high for an initial invasion of j-pan. the us continued to do several atomic bomb tests, many at bikini atoll in the marshall islands not long after the rapage of hiroshima and nagasaki by the us’s m-ssive p-n-s at the time. the tests were conducted mostly to test the effects of nuclear weapons at sea.

anyways, now we’re at an arms race in nuclear power between the soviets and the americans to show the world who had the bigger c-ck and who should follow their political influence, because they just -ssumed everyone else wanted a big c-ck, too. the arms race escalated with the us and the soviet union developing their largest nuclear weapons. the us with castle bravo, the blast yield of which was between 15-22 megatons, detonated at bikini atoll on february 24, 1954. at the time this was the largest detonated nuclear bomb, several times larger than the fat man and little boy bombs dropped on j-pan spreading fear in the world about where it was going in terms of abusing the power of science and nuclear weapons.

the soviet union, on the other hand, didn’t give a f-ck. the united states expanding the size of their p-n-s with castle bravo? hah! they could show them just how m-ssive the c-ck of communism could be. they developed the “tsar bomba”, also codenamed “ivan.” i don’t exaggerate when i say this bomb was one mean motherf-cker. to date, tsar bomba is the largest nuclear weapon ever detonated at 50 megatons. the explosion let out by tsar bomba in comparison made nagasaki look like a tiny speck on the horizon. the tsar bomba was originally going to be 100 megatons, but the soviets at the last minuet changed it to 50 for safety reasons. safety reasons. it was unleashed on october 30, 1961 on novaya zemlya.
it’s important to remember that the cold war wasn’t soley reliant on nuclear power extending the two superpowers’ c-cks, but other methods of proving one was superior to the other. one of these were the sp-ce race.
one dream was to explore sp-ce. this became one of the central focuses of the cold war when the soviets got a head start by launching the sputnik 1 into sp-ce on october 4, 1957 and also sent the first man into sp-ce, yuri gagarin on april 12, 1961.

it’s accepted that the sp-ce race officially began with the launch of the sputnik. for years the united states believed that it had a bigger c-ck than the soviet union because it believed it was the leader of the sp-ce program, despite two failed attempts to get into sp-ce. so when the sputnik first launched to the surprise of the us, americans went absolutely and completely batsh-t insane. it became immediately emasculated at viewing how huge the soviets’ pumping pole of communist power had become it immediately began work vigorously on trying to out-man the soviets with it’s own sp-ce program, eventually sending the first man on the moon on july 20, 1969, making the soviet union feeling emasculated and flacid. some believe the moon landing was faked in order to show the world that america had a bigger c-ck than the soviets in order to gain influence.
the cold war also wasn’t just between the us and the ussr. the us fought a series of proxy wars to contain the spread of communism but they usually ended up in mediocre victories or m-ssive failures altogether. such is with the korean war, in which north korea fought for communism and the us sided with the south. it was like a game of tug of war, one side got really far south, the other eventually got really far north, then they just got to the middle and said “f-ck it” and left. history repeated itself with vietnam, north fighting for communism, us siding with the south, blah blah blah. the us got a bl–dy nose, became flacid and ran away. some also believe that president kennedy was -ss-ssinated so lyndon b. johnson could go to war with vietnam to contain the spread and influence of communism.
the cold war eventually ended in victory for the united states, when the soviet union’s c-ck got so big it eventually got erectile dysfunction and then proceeded to sh-t all over itself like a dying star as a result. the soviet union collapsed under gorbachev, ukraine, the baltic states, belarus and others became independent again, the russian mafia took the oppertunity to rise in russia’s broken government in times of recovery (but still holds the most nuclear weapons in the world). and now the united states is the sole superpower in the world, always going on and on about how m-ssive it’s d-ck is and proceeding to shove it’s d-ck in other countries’ faces when they don’t really want it to.
i could go on and on. honestly. so much sh-t occurred during the cold war between the us and the ussr and their battle for global influence but this page would go on forever. pick up a book on the cold war if your interested. get the chance to read about the world’s greatest and largest pr-ck-waving compet-tion.
the cold war – the world’s greatest pr-ck-waving compet-tion. soon, the sequel, the us versus the taliban playing hide the sausage.
1. period of mostly low-key or cultural brinkmanship between the united states and (most typically) the now-defunct soviet union, which formally ended in 1991 and had been going on since 1946 or 1917, depending on who you ask. occasionally got hot or at least fairly warm in places like vietnam, berlin or korea. supposedly the fight between democracy and communism, but n-body hears about such brinkmanship with china these days.

2. any protracted, sullen standoff between people.

3. the ongoing medical attack on the vast family of rhinoviruses responsible for a condition known medically as acute nasopharyngitis.
they were cold war kids, growing up in the 1970s.

there’s a bit of a cold war between jim and his parents these days.

they’re still fighting the cold war, but for the moment we’ll have to deal with blocked noses on a personal basis.
a period of rivalry that included a nuclear arms race between the west and communist countries—primarily between the us and the former ussr—over global primacy. it began just after wwii and lasted until the fall of the soviet union in the early 1990s when the ussr dissolved. it left the ussr bankrupt, and the fall of the communists dissolved the ussr into separate countries now known as the commonwealth of independent states. the us then became the soul superpower in the world. during the cold war, the soviets sent the first person into outer sp-ce, but it was the us that landed on the moon. the cold war led to the red scare, a fear of communism in america by which people would build bomb shelters in case the soviet union attacked. in the 1960s, the ussr and the us nearly went to war over the cuban missle crisis. in the 1980s president ronald reagan called the soviet union an “evil empire” and boldly demanded that they tear down the berlin wall.
the cold war was basically of “war of wrods” between the us and the societs for 5 decades.
it is a drinking game developed in george town by nick aka yoshi aka the jew aka yar-yar. it is set up on a standard beer pong table, maybe a little bit wider if you prefer.

each side starts with 3 pyramids (racks, triangles). racks can vary in size from 3 cups to 10 cups. each rack has its own person (only one person drinks from each triangle/rack). ping-pong b-lls are used and at least one ball per person. so if you have three racks on each side you need 6 b-lls.

the 2 sides are the soviets (com block) and the allies (nato). each person starts with a ball. the russians get to fire the first shot. once the first ball leaves the hand of a soviet player the nato players can fire back.

the rules:
soviets fire first. nato can respond. there are no turns like in beer pong/beirut. if a ball lands in one of your cups you cannot do anything (not throw the ball or collecting the b-lls) until you finish your beer. (if another ball lands in one of your cups while your drinking, then you must finish that one as well). once you have a ball you can throw it. bounces can be knocked away but they do not give you any advantage. you can only collect b-lls that are on your half of the table/room ect. you cannot cross it (the middle dividing line is the iron curtain!!(yet). once your rack of cups has been drunk you can cross to the other side as a spy, where you can compete for the b-lls w/ the opposing team and throw them back to your teammates.

your can use strategies such as hording the b-lls and making into all of your opponents cups to keep them drinking.

this is a very fast paced game.
d-mn, the game of cold war really got me drunk.
ignoring someone because they p-ss you off; refusing to acknowledge another person; being quiet as a way to not show your anger or say anything you’ll regret later
rebekkah was really anxious and driving me insane with her questions and comments so i totally had to cold war her.
when two (or more) people in an apartment building happen to try and take hot showers at the same time, quickly draining the building’s hot water.

matters escalate when they realize that the water is getting colder faster than normal. they begin to slowly turn their hot water up in an effort to stay comfortable. it becomes a race when both parties try to finish their showers as fast as possible.
one of the sorority girls downstairs and i got into a cold war this morning as i was getting ready for work and she was probably washing the shame off from ladies night.
