Commenter Of The Day: Germanz Iz Az Ze Germanz Doez [Commenter Of The Day]
It’s rather hilarious to me that the extent of a fake German accent is adding zees and speaking without using contractions. Having known many Germans, we can safely say that this strategy isn’t necessarily a bad one. Stereotypes of our teutonic allies tend to fit into one of three seemingly contradictory roles: the portly sweetmonger, the precise and serious German (see Sportwagen of Sorrow), or the happy-go-lucky gay Berliner. Certainly one can’t be any two of those three things at once, so it makes us wonder where the 2010 Porsche Panamera-driving Germans fit into the mold. That’s where Boosted Lego Wagon decided to help.
Those pop-collared Germans aren’t wearing sunglasses, those are goggles.
And they are doing nothing.
Ahhh… pumped-up Austrian characters from The Simpsons. Got it.
