Re: “Neger“, just the other day I witnessed an armageddon of awkwardness when my aunt (who hadn't visited us in ages) came by again and didn't know that my younger brother is dating a black boy now. Cue us sitting at the kitchen table when my brother's bf comes downstairs - my aunt initially only saw his legs, thought that my (naturally really pale) brother must have sunbathed a ton and exclaims “Ui, was kommt denn da für ein Neger!?“ in a playful/admiring tone. Except, well, it wasn't my brother. I don't think I've ever seen somebody being as embarrassed as my aunt right then :haw:

Holy shiiiiiiiiiiit awkward.

I knew someone whose last name was Näger. "Hallo Herr Näger" is a pretty awkward greeting to say the least.

There's a German philosopher with that last name, makes discussing his papers kinda weird too. Kind of like talking about Kant in English-speaking countries I guess.

Should have dug deeper with a Stromberg Düsenjäger routine, for maximum awkwardness :v:

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

I had the pleasure of serving with an battalion S1 and presse offizier by the rank and name of Oberleutnant Neger.

It made for a lot of awkward, embarrassing, and occasionally hilarious moments.

If you do, just make sure you don't settle to close to Wunsiedel, so you don't have to deal with their parody of a language.

I've done and seen my share of Wunsiedel, including way too many trips to the Naturbühne and the adjacent labyrinth during school.

"hey, pretty nifty", I thought the first time. Then it started getting old real quick and the aftertaste of Wunsiedel increasingly ended up being defined by neonazi gedenkmärsche.

A small, decrepit house with a 1000qm plot of land in the Kreis where my parents live, affectionately known as "badisch Sibirien", costs as much as a 26qm apartment in the city were I live. I like to browse Immobilienscout and dream of keeping chickens and planting flowers and poo poo. There's an endangered Badenian breed of chickens, the Sundheimer Huhn, that is majestic and cute as gently caress.

Realtalk, my retirement plans involve a small plot of land in rural Frankonia (anything but unter-, because lol unter-), a regulation-conforming wildgehege with a gaggle/herd/murder of foxes, some free-roaming chickens, and both an obscenely large array of smokers in my back yard, as well as ones with tow-hooks, so I can run my own chill BBQ-catering service.

My family lives in rural Franconia so your retirement plans are literally "what my cousin does". I think they even have those exact chickens (or one of those large endangered breeds anyway).

I want to live in a Kleinstadt, because it has most of the countryside advantages, but occasionally something happens that is slightly different from every other day.

The Wunsiedel theater thing is great though. When I was on a school trip there they were playing "the name of the rose" so whenever we were hiking through those woods and labyrinths we heard spooky monks chanting which was cool.
Some years later I went with family to watch Schiller's "Die Räuber" and it was pretty good too. Some time in between I read the whole first harry potter book in one night while my family went to that theater without me because I was too small.

So yeah, Wunsiedel has been part of my life.

I got food poisoning in a Wunsiedel pizzeria once when I was a kid. Another time a drunk woman claimed my parents had stolen my sister and me from her.

Can confirm that the Felsenlabyrinth is neat, though.
