Hippos 🦛 aren’t rhinos 🦏

I have rather long and nimble fingers, but also my fingernails are really thin and soft so I keep them short (otherwise they will break at every opportunity) which is not a good combination to get a hold of can tabs.

I’m german I can only offer you Eisberg

Not my story but from my boyfriend. In English class they were supposed to write a review about a movie. He wrote a negative one about The Last Airbender from M. Night Shyamalan. First she argued that “iceberg” is not an english word (this took place in Germany) and that he should instead use “icy mountain” they had to look it up in a dictionary to convince her otherwise and then she took points away because “why would you write a review about something and not recommend it”.

There are several versions of these kinds of puns in German, one version:

Wenn Grillen Grillen grillen, grillen Grillen Grillen.

When crickets barbecue crickets, then crickets are barbecuing crickets.

Currently we are decorating the tree then when everyone is here we will eat Hochzeitssuppe and Zungenragout (literal translation would be wedding soup and tongue ragout) which are traditional christmas dishes in our family. Then we open the presents (in Germany you open them usually on Christmas Eve). Tomorrow we will eat roast goose with braised red cabbage and potato dumplings.

So overall just hanging out with family and eating.

Everything that came before the Gameboy and most consoles. My parents had an weird arbitrary rule about my sister and me not being allowed to have consoles but Gameboy or later Nintendo DS were fine. And as a kid I wasn’t really aware of the existence of PS Vita or PSP so those I’m also not really nostalgic for.

I might as well tell you where I live/my parents live, so I prefer not to say ^^ It’s a fairly small village/town

Tbh vanilla from a very specific small ice cream shop in Germany. I don’t like vanilla from pretty much anywhere else, there are good flavours in other shops but when I’m visiting my parents I have to go there and get the vanilla. Maybe it’s nostalgia but it’s my favourite and I don’t know what to do if they ever have to close.
