[arbusto_baboso]

3. Die sind zwei Berliner lol

I lived in Germany for the past 3 years ( I am back in America now ) and Berliners were my favorite snack the entire time I was there . Although the ones I had had more powdered sugar than the ones in the pic there .

4. Aha! The dirty truth comes out at last!

I just knew you were a donut! You look the type. I can spot them a mile away.

Fess up, which side of the Iron Curtain did you call home...comrade? Eh? Ve haff vays to make...you talk. A communist donut in our midst, ladies unt gentlemen.

5. Ich bin ein wealthy American playboy!

You MUST know where that's from!

[MrScorpio]

6. Actually, I pulled this stunt several times at German Bakeries

Nobody laughed

I guess that they don't get American humor

[joeybee12]

7. Maybe they don't have a sense of humor at all!

[DoNotRefill]

8. Sure they do: Favorite German joke:

Two peanuts vere valking down der strasse, und vun of zem vas assaulted....peanut...

[joeybee12]

9. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

[nickgutierrez]

10. Worst joke ever.

:)

[joeybee12]

12. Reminds me of the Monty Python skit--the funniest joke in the world!

SO funny, it was deadly! The English used it during WWII to win the war. The Germans couldn't come up with one as good. Then there's a shot of Hitler saying something in German, and it's translated as: My dog has no nose. How does he smell? Awful!

[nickgutierrez]

13. And everyone says the Germans have no sense of humor...

They're right, but still... :P

[joeybee12]

14. Well, theGermans did think that the British joke was so funny it made them

fall out of trees!

[nickgutierrez]

22. It was the funniest joke ever

Even the Germans could get it!

[DoNotRefill]

26. Yup....Monty Python....

I think that joke was told by "Heinrich Bimmler"..."No, I vas NEVER Overprotector of Czechoslavakia!!!!"

[truthspeaker]

16. Most German speakers I've met deny you can make puns in German

[LynzM]

11. Eigentlich ist das zwei Berliner....

Was hast du in Deutschland gemacht? Ich habe 9 monate im Stuttgart gewohnt... ich vermisse es auch :( Butterbretzeln und Kaesespaetzle und Doner-Kebabs!!

[MrScorpio]

15. I left Germany back in 1998 after being there for four years.

I wasn't a big fan of German food (Except Berliners of course) but I did Doner kababs everywhere I went. I miss Turkish food the most, it reminded me a lot of Greek. Pardon for not answering in German, but it's been too long

[LynzM]

21. Were you there for military stuff?

Just curious! Doner kebabs, good, good stuff. I'm amazed they're not all over the place over here yet... our loss, that. I didn't eat much Turkish food besides that, but loved what I had. And Greek food... oh, yum. The best cucumbers and tomatoes and cheese I've had in my life, I think. Gah... I think I need a trip back over there. Jonesin' for European food.... :evilgrin:

[DoNotRefill]

27. Yummmmm.....Dörners....

White or red?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

17. Ich habe auch in Deutschland gewohnt .

Fur drei Jahre habe ich in Hannover gelebt . Aber jetzt bin ich wieder in der USA . Seit May 30 bin ich zu hause . Eigentlich manchmal ich denke dass Deustchland mein zu hause ist . Ich vermisse das Essen und eigentlich auch Europa sehr . Ahhh Doner-Kebabs ! Und Bretzels ! Und Fanta und Milka Schokolade !

I had to add the McDonald's in Germany were way cleaner than any McDonald's I have ever been to in America . I am going through withdrawal , I miss Germany and Europe .

[MrScorpio]

18. I miss a lot of that stuff, but you know what I miss the most?

Magnum Bars.

The Staff of life!!!

Hey anybody ever play the German Lotto?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

19. OH GOSH YEAH ! Magnum Bars !

It took me a while to get use to American products again . Any " Langnese " ice cream tasted good . I never played the German lotto .

[LynzM]

20. Ich fuehle dort auch zu Hause....

I really do miss Germany (and Europe, in general) several times, every day. A certain smell, a particular type of cloudy day, this, that or the other thing, always reminding me of being there. We talk some about trying to move back over there, a bit of a scary proposition, but I'd love for our daughter to grow up truly bilingual, with a more global perspective, you know? There is SO much that I miss about being there, it would take me ages to list it all, LOL. Some days I really feel like I will never feel 'home' again anywhere, after living there. I will always miss it, or miss the US, in some ways....

MMmmmm.... Milka. Actually, my fave is Ritter Sport, which is so commercial, it's terrible :9 But I love it. Actually just bought some this weekend at this great german store in Indianapolis. Yummy! And Spaetzle! And yeah, German McD's kicked way more ass than the US ones, in terms of cleanliness, service, and LMAO hysterical marketing!! Did you see any of the 1/2 english 1/2 german marketing stuff??!

[MrScorpio]

23. I can get Ritter Sport any time

at the base comissary

[LynzM]

24. Lucky!

I have a friend whose husband is in the military, that's where I got it last time! Do most comissaries have a decent selection of imports, or is it more specific to the region you're in?

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

25. Ah mmmmmm lecker Spaetzle !

I have a German cookbook and other recipes and thats bascially all that I eat . I went there at time of my life where everything was upset down but when I went to Germany , I found peace for the first time in my life . I love how the people actually take the time to relax . Ahhh Schwarzbrot mit Butter und Salami ... I too would like to live there again someday ( might move back there ) and I would like to raise my children over there as well so that they will get a Global perspective as well . It took me a lot of weeks to get used to America again to the point that I was depressed . Seriously sometimes I find myself saying " I wanna go home " and then I realize that I am at home alread in NC . Its what they say , home is where the heart is .

I MISS Ritter Sport . I even miss the goofy television programs . The 1/2 english 1/2 german marketing was off the wall lol .

Ich brauche ein Schweinefuss ( roasted pig feet )oder Haenchen mit Senf und Pommes bitte bald ! LOL :)
