(no subject)
Today I had a really great Skype conversation with my friend in Germany, Joachim. He showed me his brand new kitchen (spiffy!), and we talked about everything from different politics in Germany to our accents (he thinks I sound slightly British, LMAO) to our families' histories.
One thing he taught me was apparently Austria is considered a sort of hillbilly country by Germans, and they have an ethnic slur for them - Schluchtenscheißer - which literally means "canyon shitters", and there's a ton of references to Austrians " shitting in the canyon". Why do they shit in the canyon? Don't they have toilets? LMAO
In that case, as my great grandfather was Austrian, I'm 1\4 "canyon shitter".
