Is woman short for womb-man?

That's not true. It's perfectly fine to have fun in Germany, as long as it doesn't disturb the neighbours and is propperly announced to the local authities two weeks in advance using form SVaF-18/1-42.

It happens more often than you think. There's an old German song about a bear who accidentally gets a job in a factory they built above his cave one winter. When he roams around the factory after waking up they mistake him for an unshaved, lazy worker and put him in front of a machine to do some tedious work.

It's basically the opposite story to the one in this comic.

We have more vulgar options in German if you need them:

  • Es geht mir am Arsch vorbei (It walks past my ass)
  • Es ist mir scheißegal (It's shit-equal to me)

but we also have less vulgar options:

  • Es ist mir Jacke wie Hose (It's as Jacket as Pants to me)
  • Es interessiert mich nicht die Bohne (It interests me less than a bean)

There are dozens more options. I assume it's the same in Spanish.

I'm always fascinated that people in one country do not know what is basically considered primary school knowledge in the rest of the world. Makes me wonder what interesting stuff I don't know that's common knowledge for all you guys.

I was in Faliraki a few years ago and it was really nice. I was there in late October though, so there were only like 20 other tourists in town and all the penny arcades and tourist shops were already closed.

I'll never understand why people fly to the south in the middle of the summer, when the weather is nice here anyway.

What's the advantage of disk encryption if you don't require a password to boot? Couldn't you just boot the device and extract the data using Explorer anyway?

always wash chicken, in a separate room

Oh dang, I'll have to move to a bigger house. My current home is lacking a chicken washing room.

I mean, obviously people would be confused if you called February "spring" in Australia, but then again you celebrate Christmas in summer 😁
