I clicked on the link and There's no german page for that... but there's a page in Pfälzisch, the dialect people in the german region Palatinate (Pfalz) speak.

You know the stereotypes about germans, no humor, stare at you, love their rules and laws, cold and pedantic, wait for the green light on a pedestrian crossing at 3 in the morning, but go pedal to the metal the moment their Porsche/Benz/BMW enters the Autobahn... and we drink beer all day and eat Sauerkraut.
:)
Seriously, the only Sauerkraut I really like is the batch my Dad makes every year in autumn and I don't drink beer.
I went to a fair bunch of Biker Parties back in my MC days. At least one guy blacked out drunk and pissed himself after binge drinking... and in southern Germany we start with 0.5l bottles of beer.
All piss, no blood.
When did they forget he is an immigrant too?
Oh, wait... he's an insanely rich white immigrant... nevermind.
I think at some point you piss yourself.
OK, 128GB is a joke nowadays... 1TB should be the smallest size.
128GB should be looking like a 3.5" FDD
My pleasure.
You and grew up in completely different cultures, even if both are considered "western". We both are a product of how we grew up.
If someone would accuse me, as a german, of stareing, I'd be baffled, because for us it is normal not to look away after a split second. We also like to say things directly and don't like waste time with small talk and chit chat in some situations. Many think this makes us cold.
And... you obviously know about the darkest parts of german history. I was born 24 years after the third Reich was defeated and 80 years later this time still haunts this country. That's why we sometimes react a bit "twitchy" if people use expressions that either were used by the fascists or sound like they would have liked them. I hope you understand my first reaction even better now.
Cherries are known to be growing in Norway for many hundred years.
Muhahahahahahaha...
FAFO!
No mercy...
Yeah... those fucking moronic assholes that forced your great grandmother to flee to survive loved expressions like Lebensraum, Rasserein, Bluterbe, Mutterland, Vaterland or Unwertes Leben...
And we germans laugh about that Murican obsession with "I'm German, because my great grandmother was..." you can get german citizenship ius sanguinis (by blood ... [as direct desendent])" and since 2000 also by ius soli (by place of birth). There's a joke about "Russlanddeutsche" (Russian germans) that goes like: Ivan now has german passport, he could give proof his great great great great grandfather had a german shepherd back in 1792.
Those people "coming back" are the decendents of people migrating to russia back in 1764 on their own free will.
So, my personal tip. Just say you want to leave the US because that country is heading for a fall. I can speak a bit german because my great grandma was from [insert city/village/state here]. I hope this will help me learn to speak fluently fast.
And you're welcome.
Oh, the blonde clown again!
But she has better looks than Deputy Doofy...
