I really feel for the model in the photo. When you enlarge it, it looks like that woman is laughing at him.

"gyrating underpants." I need to use that phrase at least once a day from now on.

 
Flamadiddle Rocket Scientist 2003-12-14 10:19:55 PM  
Curses! I thought underwear models were only women!

 
SonofThor825 2003-12-14 10:22:42 PM  
Follow up:
The display was recently canceled because the models were suddenly without their underpants. Local authorities describe the main suspects as being short in stature and musical.

Phase 1. Model Underpants
Phase 2.
Phase 3. Profit!

Whee, liederhosen!

 
DoorsFanRob 2003-12-14 10:34:49 PM  
Ich bin ein Menschenfresser! Iche esse lederhosen!! Ich bin auch verruckt!!

 
IdeasGuy 2003-12-14 10:34:53 PM  
saying lederhosen are from Berlin is like saying cow boy hats are from Boston.

 
themeatball 2003-12-14 10:37:24 PM  
Heh. This post and headline are both wrong on so many counts.

At least the submitter got his German right.

 
DoorsFanRob 2003-12-14 10:39:05 PM  

Lederhosen!

 
themeatball 2003-12-14 10:39:24 PM  
Sorry liederhosen, your name is not the name of a german leather pair of pants.

 
SockMonkeyHolocaust 2003-12-14 10:40:46 PM  
Seriously, if anyone gets a chance to be in Berlin around this time it is insanely beautiful and there are no tourists. I highly recommend it.

 
Stupidity4Infinity 2003-12-14 10:42:52 PM  
Yet another reason I quit studying German, refuse to set foot on german soil again in my life, and harass every German I happen to run into. Anything decent must have died in Germany years ago, because all that's left are a bunch of sexually confused pervs. Leave those donkies alone people. Germany isn' a Mexico border town.

 
drivinwest 2003-12-14 10:42:55 PM  
As a soon-to-be resident of Munich, I have only one thing to say, "Wenn ich einen Hund hatte, knnte ich meine Zhne putzen."

Mein Deutsch is gut, ja?

 
drivinwest 2003-12-14 10:44:41 PM  
err, knnte I mean.

fark, who am I kidding? Mein Deutsch ist Scheisse.

 
liederhosen 2003-12-14 10:45:07 PM  
themeatball, That may be, but I like the way my name sounds better.

 
drivinwest 2003-12-14 10:45:35 PM  
Damn umlauts!

 
Stupidity4Infinity 2003-12-14 10:48:11 PM  
Mein Deutsche is auch sheisse aber alle Deutchers sind sheisse auch. Or like something to that avail. shiat just learn Spanish and move to Spain instead.

 
State_College_Arsonist 2003-12-14 10:50:15 PM  
Wait, so fark can't handle umlauts? Eh, guess I shouldn't be surprised.

 
State_College_Arsonist 2003-12-14 10:52:04 PM  
Oh, why must German have sixteen different ways to say "the?" Der, die, das, die...c'mon, guys, that's not exactly a model of German efficiency.

 
Scrotar 2003-12-14 10:52:21 PM  
It is in bad taste to wear underwear in public, with nothing else on! Ridiculous!

 
Chariset [TotalFark] 2003-12-14 10:55:14 PM  
promise me anything, but give me live male underwear models..

Wenn ich einen Hund haette, koennte ich mir die Zaehne putzen!

Berliners don't wear lederhosen, those are the Bavarians.

Northen Germans = Like Colonel Klink
Souther Germans and Austrians = Like Sgt. Schultz

alle Deutchers sind sheisse auch

Was? Ich wei nicht, was Sie sagen.

 
psyduck 2003-12-14 11:04:32 PM  
Ihr sollt ein bisschen Grammatik lernen. Warum gibt es keinen Umlaut in "Umlaut?"

 
LineNoise [TotalFark] 2003-12-14 11:04:53 PM  
Damnit, someone already made a donut joke....

Well in that case I am a Hamburger, and a Frankfurter.

drivinwest 2003-12-14 11:06:04 PM  
NEIN!!! Wenn ich einen Hund hatte, knnte ich meine Zhne putzen!

Can somebody fluent in German tell me if that is grammatically correct? I think it is.

 
Flamadiddle Rocket Scientist 2003-12-14 11:06:16 PM  
Bavaria kicks major ass, particularly the Black Forest region.

Indeed. I'm moving to Munich in 3 weeks to work for the European Space Agency (been with NASA for ~5 years). I see you're an Aero Eng student - keep in touch.

THIRTY DAYS IN THE COOLER!

Naja psyduck, ich weiss es nicht. Das Wort ist nur geil.

Yeah.. But Lederhosen is a german stereotype, just as cowboy hats are an American stereotype. It doesn't matter if Lederhosen is more Bavarian and cowboy hats are Texan, people still associate them with Germany and the United States respectively.

And, damn it, use oe ue ae and ss in place of the umlauts and ess zett. Don't make me come in there.

Just out curiosity are there any Austrian farkers out there? I'm trying to study in Graz next year.

 
HellfireSE 2003-12-14 11:13:34 PM  
.... AUS berlin.
10 points to anyone who gets the reference. points are redeemable for hugs.

uhm... einstein... the Black Forest region isn't in bavaria. it's in Baden-Wuerttemberg, west of bavaria.

so you're going afterall huh? GREAT NEWS! You'll love it. Just make sure you Pay someone to Anmeld for you when you have to go to the Kreisverwaltungsreferat. Those people will crush your soul. Call a relocation service and have them do it for you.

the Augustinerkeller will soon become your best friend. And the Wirtshaus zu Brezn on Leopoldstrasse (muenchener freiheit) is great for food, as is ROXY.

the problem i have with this article is they say there's LEDERHOSEN in BERLIN.

Lederhosen is BAVARIAN people, Berlin is PRUSSIAN; you'd find a lederhosen shop in berlin about the time you find a Texas cowboy apparel store in Maine.

HELLFIRE
you sound like you're quoting the Monty Python sketch character Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nrnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shnedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.

except he's not Aus berlin, he's aus Ulm....

Wenn ich nur noch in Deutschland waer!

I'm sorry. I know I sound like an idiot. I apologize in advance. Please make fun of me.

Where does the

Step 1: Steal Underpants
Step 2:
Step 3: PROFIT!

thing come from? Was it an episode of Dilbert, or Family Guy, or something? I know I've scene it (which is why I suggested those two), and it's really bothering me that I don't know what it's from.

So please, someone tell me, and save me from my insanity.

 
Father_Jack 2003-12-14 11:35:42 PM

yeah, yer grammar's right, except it's "wenn ich einen hund haEtte"

hatte=had
haette=had in the hypothetical, pining-for-something-that-didnt happen/isnt true sense.

South Park--Episode a few years ago that featured the Underpants Gnomes.

"Great angle." - my thought exactly.
Photographer: "Excuse me, do you mind if I lie on the ground and photograph your Anus?"
Model: "No problems, I'll spred my legs a bit so you get a bit of scrote too..."

 
Unferth 2003-12-15 12:19:32 AM  
Nothing better than German dudes...

Anything else which is aus berlin, would be Rammstein when they were Live aus Berlin. Otherwise, Monty Python.

Actually I think you were closer the first time.
Germans don't usually refer to body parts with the possessive.

z.B. - Ich lasse die Haare schneiden.

Could be wrong...I lived there for a while but am not a native speaker.

 
Unferth 2003-12-15 12:28:28 AM  
HeOfTheGoiter:

You are correct,posessives are not used when speaking about body parts.

I got to see them live at the Zillo Festival at one point. Great live band. The song "bueck dich" is a memorable experience to see. (that means "bend over" in german)

you dont see keyboarders get sodomized by huge paper machet penises every day you know.

if you kazaa for rammstein bueck dich videos you'll see what i mean. its quite something.
