Here in the Midwest we have plenty of snowflakes that stay on our nose and eyelashes.

Whatever a noselash is....

27. yes, the northern germans are so "superior"
to us southern bumpkins. I guess it's the same everywhere.

I guess there must be a reason why the Octoberfest is in Munich and not snooty Berlin. Maybe we're a bit friendlier? They also think the bavarian and austrian lederhosen thing is so provincial . . . but some of those southern boys are glorious no matter what they wear.

Personally I think anyone who chooses to wear black all the time, and only until something darker comes along, is pretty boring. They also have prissy accents when they speak, kind of like a scot putting on a fake high brit accent. Then they go home and sling tongue at each other in their real northern dialects anyway, so don't listen to your ex.

Even the castles in southern Germany and Austria are whitewashed and clean and inviting. When you go north, they have all those dreary gray heaps of stone.

What more can I say? Glad you got away!

29. I'll have to share your post with him
I don't know how Germans define what is north and south but looking at a map, Frankfurt (which is where he is from) doesn't look that north, or really too far away from the much dreaded south. He had such strong feelings about it it was fun to use against him. I'll I had to say was "You sound just like Ahnold" and he would lose it.

Ahh.. lederhosen. There was a German restaurant in Ft. Worth at one time where the male waiters wore them. Damn they looked hot. It took me forever to calm down enough I could walk out of the restaurant when finished.

37. Frankfurt is the equivalent of . . . Kansas City
sort of like our midwest, and as you know some folks up there just think anywhere not in the midwest is pretty unwholesome.

Okay, I've insulted midwesterners, Frankfurters, Berliners, Kansas City-ites(?), and any German who is not Bavarian. Who's next?

The south is beautiful, you should go some time:

18. I only remember the last few verses, but it's a beaut. . .
"...when the prick grows, when the juice flows,
when he's feelin' grand,
Just fart in his face and put him in his place,
And then he can use...his hand!"

:evilgrin::evilgrin::evilgrin:

I recall seeing this parody in a book by sports writer Mariah Burton Nelson titled "The Stronger Women Get The More Men Love Football"

:smoke:

19. If you start into "Climb Every Mountain"
I'll smack you.

That's what you get for slowing the movie down to a crawl. That's a prime BM break.

20. Here in Michigan: give me a few months and I'll give you a
silver-white winter that melts into spring... we call it MUD SEASON, though (not very lyrical, is it?)
