Any they say Germany doesn't like change.
While @40PercentGerman awaits his new arrival, I’ve found another one I know he’d approve of.
In Stuttgart — where obviously Berlin meets Bayern — you find…what else? The Currywurstbreze. It’s a magical thing.

To live here, you need to know there isn't one #Germany, there's 16 different flavours.
Things only get weird when you move to Bavaria to be told it's "not really" Germany.
Weirder, move to Nürnberg, in Bavaria, and suddenly you're in Franken.
German geography is tricky.

Exclusive - After years of painstaking research, I can finally reveal the results of a decades long study on the afterlife.
I now present our first images of German heaven:

Take a walk through any major company HQ in Germany and marvel at how many people aren’t actually speaking German.
It’s frankly embarrassing how little you know about how Germany’s wealth is generated, and maintained.
Dem ist fast nichts mehr hinzuzufügen außer den Worten des Ministerpräsidenten a.D. Edmund Stoiber:
„Wer randaliert, fliegt raus, und wer kein Deutsch kann, kommt gar nicht erst rein.“

I see the fireworks debate in Germany is moving in a totally expected direction.

My wife made the decision to light one of the inner Advent candles first. Is this permitted? Are we going to get a Mahnung from the local Adventsamt?

Before Twitter blows up, I want to share with you all something my daughter said tonight when she was interrupted. Next time someone talks over you, just say, ganz cool, 'Wilkommen Schatz in meinem Satz.' Welcome to my sentence, darling.

I can't stand the overuse of heating in Germany every year, but it seems especially egregious this year already. How do we take the "energy crisis" plea seriously with a cultural insistence on blasting heat instead of exercising common sense and wearing a sweater? It's 15°C!

It’s the general air of optimism that keeps me coming back to Deutsche Bahn.

I was just refused service in a bar which didn't take card - I then went to the ATM. When I came back with a €50 note, which they then refused to take as it was too large.
When I said this wasn't great customer service they told me "Willkommen in Deutschland."

🇩🇪 @GermanyXP A podcast you must listen to learn as much as you can about German culture, language barriers, if you are 'expat' here. With a mainly US focus, we Latinxs/Mex can relate as foreigners with lots of episodes themes.

European Heat Wave Twitter is either "here's a few tips on keeping cool!" or "lol you think 38° is hot?" both of which devolve into spats over A/C, build quality, insulation, w/at least one person insisting these heat waves "rarely happen" even though they happen every year now.

There comes a point when learning new German words that your guess from the components isn't far off from the result.
I wondered what "peace yard" was going to be. But yes, Friedhof is obviously going to be "cemetery/graveyard".
German is cool. – at Berlin, Germany

I learned that the hard way when I pre-emptively congratulated someone on their birthday the next day 🙈 it‘s a totally normal thing to do in England if you won‘t see the person 🤣
