My grandfathers spoke Platt with each other, very different versions, yet they understood eachother. My mother’s father I could understand as well, not my father’s though, he spoke a very dutch Platt.

I sadly don’t speak it even though my mother told both of them to teach me and my brother

It was just a joke, especially Brazil has quite a large German minority from the 18th century AFAIK.

Mate it’s a joke - calm down, I could not care less about someone’s spelling especially since mine would suck much more as a foreigner

Well I guess your generation was preoccupied using brick phones to learn how to properly spell words judging by the amount of spelling errors, as well as lack of punctuation.

Right the Germans in south america, guess your family moved there in the middle of the forties, somewhere around May of 1945?

Schofseckl is such a heavy dialect insult that my norther ass had to reread that word a couple of times to find out what it meant. Guess they integrated well, much better than I would because I’d refuse to on principle.

Doubt it is @[email protected] , right?

Well yes of course it is, how do you recon we get all these inside info?

I found that to be the weirdest incorrect assumption. I bought a zippo during my time in the navy, they don’t work well in windy conditions certainly not much better than regular gas lighters. What does work better are storm lighters, those with high pressure flame

Fuck I am too old for my own generation. Mentally and from my speaking I am way more millenial than gen z

Well Volk is a country’s people in German

Your name should at least be an actual name considering that I presume you’re German. The authorities are rather strict here

And the anticheating software will be horribly flawed leaving a lot of cheating unnoticed or horribly invasive. Both of which might in turn lead to ragequit to which there are basically 4 scenarios. Violently thrashing out in your home, leaving the game entirely, suicide or worse suicide after shooting up a school/ mall/ etc.

Well that turned dark quickly, but damn those two are similar.

Which will inevitably lead to cheating

That still holds true even with the internet around

I’d recon this was taken on the set of The Bear

You only post sexual memes and none are original, why do you insist on making feddit similar to Facebook

Because the google search “what is FL OZ?” Or just “FL OZ” was impossible before

Considering the fact that there are over 30 countries that have a civil code derived from the German one, I assume it’s not just one country.

Besides you used health insurance in the USA as the only basis for your argument.

Yeah, honestly that’s just untruthful. Any collision in a modern car needs an entire new front, because of damages to the fragile pedestrian safety systems and the electronics. A new bumper on a 2017 VW is around 1500 Euros painted. Another 1500 for the head lights, the labour cost is obviously country dependent. But even a small accident in a parking lot has damages almost 5 figure high when two modern cars are involved.

When you get into a really bad accident on a highway and dozens of vehicles get damaged, the road is damaged, the cargo of trucks gets damaged etc, you can easily get into the millions if vehicles get totaled or the cargo is expensive. And you car insurance also covers damages to the passengers. If you cripple a child for example, that is at least 10 million in damages, for the pain, the lack of a normal life, the renovation of the hoise of the parents as well as the car, etc.

Damages can become extrodiarinally high, so high in fact that you’re better of killing someone im Germany (by accident) than to just cripple them as that is much much more expensive.
