German is my second language and if "Wir suchen dich" doesn't elicit at least a "heh" then you might have a problem.

half the fun of learning new languages is "what word sounds bad in the other language?"

I don't know many French words for animals except for the obvious ones like dog, cat, and seal.

On a related note, I'm always disappointed how rarely "To Let" signs in the UK are defaced to say "ToiLet". I realize it's probably played out over there, but come on, it's so simple.

I remember being in Germany and giggling every time I saw a highway sign that read “ausfahrt”. German is an inherently funny language.

If you find that funny wait till you hear about this country named Denmark

At least grab that poem with your rich nihilistic fist: Ozymandias was dead long before his works became irrelevant and owes nothing to the traveler judging his ruins.

It's not that it's played out, it's more that our legal system treats minor antisocial behaviours as worse than murder.

They might not even all be German, as when I was in a multinational house in college everyone would speak English as it was the one common language we had.

can't believe shrek is fucking dead. rip to a real one.
I met a poster from a faraway comment section
Who said—“Two vast and powerless server farms
Stand in the data center . . . Near them, on the rack,
Half sunk a shattered RAID arrays lies, whose memory,
And rusted port, and sneer of cold LED lights,
Tell that its startup, well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped upon these lifeless things,
The tweets that mocked them, and the posts that fed;
And on archive.org, these words appear:
My name is Ozy, Content King;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level world wide web stretch far away.”

A friend of mine lived for a few years in Sweden and said a recurring problem he faced was unintentionally offending people because cursing in Swedish just sounded so funny to him he kept blanking out that it was genuinely rude to Swedes.

Ask me how I managed to get the Swedish words for 'knot' and 'button' mixed up so my idiot brain proposed 'knull'
