RE: Unpopular Opinion: I like Angela Merkel

in #politics8 years ago

So if I am a sado-masochist and like to be whipped can I walk around in the streets whipping people?
laugh

ehm, S&M is reeallly huge in Germany. We are also very, "what you do behind closed doors is your buisness"... well, at least if you are not too loud xD.

Ofc there has been stuff like people killing each other involving canibalism, but I really don't want to talk about this, Canibalism and medical operations are things I can not talk or think about. No joke, it grosses me out too much.

Sort:  

Well S&M is not really my thing. I just was using as an example of DOING UNTO OTHERS as YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.

That may not always be a good thing. LAUGH

well, the caps are suspicious ;D.

But if you were into S&M you would have known it is huge here.

I know Germany is liberal about a lot of things that the U.S. can still be quite prudish about.

yeah, its just a different society. As long as you are foresightful in your actions, ie not randomly talk to loud. Sure you can have a laugh, but actually one of the major things I see Germans get annoyed about (especially when it comes to foreigners) when they are talking really loud with each other in their own language.

If your are sitting in the train at 2:00 am on a weekend completly hammered with your friends (almost) everything goes. People know they are in for a ride when they enter the train at this time.

Heh, I don't drink alcohol. My mind is pretty weird as it is. I don't actually need any chemical assistance in making it weirder. :) I am never at a loss for something to talk about. :)

As to talking... I took 3 classes of German in High School which is nearing 30 years ago. I haven't really spoken it since, but I am one of those that if I spent much time around it I'd pick it up fairly quickly.

I haven't spoken or read any of it myself in so long that I wouldn't even attempt it now, but I seem to be okay with picking up languages if I am exposed to them enough.

I also like German. I took a class of French in College and that language drove me insane. All of the silent letters annoyed me. We have some in English, but the French took silent letters you write but don't actually pronounce to a whole new level. That drove me crazy. :)

Are you just asking me to make a German language course on Steemit? I would be happy to.

I almost had to repeat a whole year of classes because of french.. its a major subject in German highschool, either french or latin. I regret not taking latin everyday...

Latin was never a choice anywhere I went. I would have gone for that. Some people might go for a German course. I cannot say. German structurally made sense, and it is clearly one of the languages that English is derived from (among several).

German definitely makes more sense than English in many ways. Why do I have to write "German, I and English" with a capital letter, english and german are adjectives. I always thought about integrating some german grammar in my english. I also love that we write all our Nouns with a Capital Letter, helps reading a Sentence, in my honest Opinion.

articles are a bitch tho. We Germans can feel the right article for each word, it is bound to the word in our minds in some weird way. That is tough to teach :D
