Woo-hoo, aren't we proud?????

My GAWD, what that f**k-wad has done to us!

7. Well, it's been going on for a long time. Nixon, Reagan, Bush1, all had a hand in this.

And every fucking Republican on every town council and board of education and county council in every state.

8. Humor in Germany

[GoneOffShore]

13. So a little story that show that the Germans do have a sense of humour.

Once when we got upgraded to business on Lufthansa, my wife started crying tears of happiness.

The steward in the plane asked why she was crying and when told it was because of the upgrade, he smiled and said: 'Well, if it makes you cry we can always put you back in steerage.'

10. In this case, German grammar permits a word-for-word translation

Was grenzt an Dummheit?

Mexiko und Kanada

My wife had never heard that (neither had I) but I am bound to hear it a lot in the near future!

11. Thank you for the reverse translation and the grammar lesson!

I took German classes many, many, many years ago and remember almost nothing.

12. I live in Germany and am married to its friendliest native

So, I am somewhat up on current language usage
