trekchu,

what do you mean? It's ****ing hilarious. Or are you like the humour-Gestapo?
Short answer: No. Long answer **** no.



Extra long answer: No, I do not find this funny. Mainly because its not my sort of 'comedy', and because I know danish isn't like that.



This is Comedy.

Other than Afghanistan has Germany EVER followed the US into a war?

So just that one instance and now Herring calls you a minion? That's rich. :DL

That is just one in a long line of nonsensical claims, August. The human mind is a truely amazing generator of randomness when all logical and critical thought processes are suspended.

By that logic Finland would be our minion because they followed us into Operation Barbarossa. :D

Well then it's too bad because Germany doesn't give orders to Finland anymore, you see those times were in the 40's and are no longer. Freedom of speech, and stuff? Any of this stuff ring a bell?

I also find it a little sad that Germans should find Monty Python and British humour funny considering how the Brits constantly deride the Germans and not in a particularily funny or benign way. But hey, have it your way.

So we are not allowed to find something funny when it comes from somewhere where they are making fun of us?


Freedom of Speech, riiiiiiight.

*Gasp* You mean some Germans are capable of laughing at themselves?

For what it's worth, Monty Python deride Brits way more than they deride ze Germans.

Of course you can find it funny, I can assure you that the Brits are laughing more than you though.

What about freedom of speech? You have a problem with that portrayal of the Danish people?

My problem with that post is that you seem to imply that Germans are unable to laugh at/about themselves.

Long ago, but I don't think the fish is self aware enough to see his pickling...

I never meant to imply that. What I said was that a lot of the British humour about Germans isn't always benign. Actually I think Germans are the most eager to laugh at themselves and therefore they often get duped by the Brits.

But hey, maybe that's just how things are. Germans messed up and therefore they have to pay the price, far into the future.

What gives you that impression?


As for paying the price, humour aimed at other nationalities is be definition not begning. We are just advanced enough to still laugh about/ignore it.

...but Finns are not allowed to make fun of the Danish, right?

Btw, here's another one, this one is about Swedes. Prepare yourself. :haha:
