oh sorry, I didn't get it from a quote...i just took two random German words...I know VW because of the cars, and I know Sodom's "Ausgebombt". The first two that came to mind.

You see - it's better to get to know what you want to say and if you don't know the meanings of words - better don't say them...

well, that happened here not too long ago...some militant vegetarians tried to burn down a McDonalds, but I think they weren't successful. Silly college students...

ganz einfach, weil ich ganz genau weiss dass er es nich so meint, evtl auch gar nich weiss was er da schreibt ... stell dir mal vor ein ami steht dir gegenüber, wild gestikulierent, mit armen und füssen und sagt: VOLKSWAGEN AUSGEBOMT.

dat is witzig du


ausserdem sollte man nich alles so ernst nehmen

well, that's why I'm trying to learn German for real now. of course, i'm not very far...all I can say is "Wo ist das Buch?" and stuff like that.

For me it was extremely funny - please don't change it. It is in the great tradition of english humour, with all the "Achtung!", "Hände Hoch" and "Blitzkrieg" - jokes. I love it!

Please, Toffi, he didn't mean anything against Wolfsburg (Probably didn't know that it existed until some minutes ago) - can't he leave it in?

Yes, and I don't think the bereaved would be amused if one is joking about that, huh?

es ist nicht richtig rübergekommen oder? es ist NICHT witzig. und zwar unter anderem genau deswegen WEIL er nicht mal wusste, was er da geschrieben hat.

(sorry, english-folks.)

Actually, I did! a few years ago, my sister desperately wanted a Jetta for her first car, but insisted on getting the "Wolfsburg edition" (though besides a slightly larger engine, I can't remember what else made it different from regular Jettas).

Wolfsburg is the hometown of Volkswagen for all who wanted to know.

And may the 'great tradition of english humour' rest in Britain.

also ich find des scho witzig. ich find des auch witzig wenn ein englischer user: ich fühle mich kotzen schreibt, oder gute natch.

und die englischen poster denken genau das selbe über sagen wir mal mich.
weil ich manchmal auch nich weiss wies richtig heisst oder mich nich ausdrücken kann in deren sprache.

man kann auch alles viel zu ernst sehen.

und, by the way, was sin denn die andren gründe? hast ja geschrieben "... unter andrem ..."

...weil Humor da aufhört, wo die Gefühle anderer verletzt werden.
Und die Wortverwechselungen führst Du jetzt nicht ernsthaft vergleichend an, oder?

one rarely makes jokes when he KNOWS he's in the presence of grieving widows.

sorry, I didn't mean it to be malicious, I just wanted to be silly and absurd. I'm not blowing up any Volkswagens.
