    Beer, various bad German phrases ("<b>shaithis</b>: Nein! NEIN du clampst sie der pie-holen, oder Ich whacken sie mit einem schmackenbeater! <b>Fargo</b>: Oho! Der Schmackenbeater? Ich schmackenbeatsen Sie Mutter!"), formerly a lot of evil people, and busty wenches. And Asuka, while we're at it. ("If you have to think, do it in German!" "Uh... Bratwurst? Strudel?").

    He just meant it in general . (at least i hope so)
    I don't think he was refering to your post or pic.
    And Yes .. all nazi stuff is banned in Germany . It's illegal to display ss-symbols or the old flag anywhere.
    One famous example is , that its completely forbidden to sell the game "Return to castel Wolfenstein" here.
    They made a german version of it , but it's forbidden as well .. because of the gore.
    That's what i think of germany as a german:

    Far too much bureaucraty (dunno if this word exists), laws on everything u can think of and a terribly complicated tax-system.

    English version of RTCW is forbidden, yes. But the other version is "indiziert" which means it's on an index of things shops aren't allowed to show, but to sell it to people aged 18 and up, only with ID control. You have to request most of this software because many shops don't have such stuff because there are few people buying it. Note: C&C Generals is also "indiziert", because of it's "close relationship" to the war in Iraq.... Yes some things here are very stupid...

    Paladin: The Germans may have lots of bureaucracy, but at least they're skilled at it. The Danes on the other hand are completely inflexible. Basically, to get a health insurance card, I needed a passport to prove my Danish citizenship. However, to get a Danish passport, I needed some other valid source of ID, like a health insurance card. GAH!

    I think of lots of words starting with "Sch" and ending with "auben" or "speilen" or "hausen".

    Yes, my grasp of German is fairly limited; I gave it up after I discovered I sucked at it.

    I speak french sort of o.k-ish, but then, every single french person speaks english! (some of them just choose not to when they realise you're english <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    Although I don't think much of a grasp of German is needed to understand:
