    And you should be glad it did. Germans didnt get so lucky.

    r/ich_iel and [email protected] STILL think it’s funny not to use english words and instead translate them literally so it sounds like complete nonsense. (“Zangendeutsch”) This joke got old like 10 years ago but if you use even a single english word you will still be greeted with “Sprich Deutsch du Hurensohn” which means speak German you son of a bitch.

    I just want good memes in my own language, but that community is insufferable.

    /rant, sorry
