Those translations in the last video had precisely nothing to do with the actual content of the video ... Impressive, really, lol.
fr i thought i had a stroke for a second
Lecker Bierchen = "I'm not a good guy"?!
You know... I'm something of 'not a good guy' myself.
Just thought the same 🤣 It seems that if the KI was the culprit, it is way way behind of anything else, that was just a sad thing to witness 🤣
Maybe the captions were generated on the original sound track (the one in the video obviously AI generated), that's the only explanation I can think of😂
@@cdhagen I don't think so, the first name was correct and murder at least sounded a bit like the last name.
Bad translation....Sparkasse is the financial bank. Spargasse is a street. Gasse is a german word for small old streets. The joke is that in Sachsen the talk k= g. The rest of germany dont
Franconia also does the soft T K P thing
Dont northern people say k=g too?
e.g. kopp inn naggen?
@@adur6400Not at the beginning of a word. You wrote it yourself, „Kopp in‘ Naggen“, not „Gopp in‘ Naggen“.
7:05 Ryan not getting it because there is no public transport in the US 😂😂😂
Then he relates it to planes because they're the only way of public transport in the US everyone uses...
„Dino-Teller“ (dino plate) sounds like „die Nutella“.
Wäre ich im Leben nicht draufgekommen. Ich habe immer an "Saurier" gedacht, nicht an "Dino".
Thanks even as a german I didn't get it 😂
Ich wäre auch niemals darauf gekommen. Ich dachte, es war gemeint, dass nur Dinosaurier "die Nutella" sagen. ;-) Ich bin übrigens der Dinosaurier. 🙂
Ich war bei Nessi oder Saurier 😂
Also to mention: Some rare words may have more than one gender in German. Another example: der Joghurt and das Joghurt, so male and neuter, both are correct and mean the same = yoghurt. Der or das Nutella, some people also say "die Nutella" (female form) which then may be heard as "Dino-Teller" (dino plate). Not to be confused with words that have two gender but also then two different meanings, like "der Mangel" (m, the deficit) and "die Mangel" (f, the mangle) or die See (f, the sea) and der See (m, the lake) or das Tor (n, the gate ) and der Tor (m, the fool).
you know he‘s American when he doesn’t get the public transportation memes and the only thing he can think of is flying 😅
He don’t know about Asterix and Obelix ? Jungs we need to fix that.
Mostly all of Americans don't know.
But since it is a France ting, it makes sense, that it is popular in Europe but not the US.
Another culture gap, apparently
i think every european would be disgusted by him not knowing Asterix and Obelix😂
They're funny movies
I'm pretty sure Asterix & Obelix is as good as unknown in the USA. Same goes for many other comic book series from Europe. Probably blocked as they didn't want competition from actually good comics for their own excuses for comics.
As much as this is hilarious to watch: Mate you HAVE to get an actual german to translate/paraphrase/explain the jokes beforehand, because so much just gets lost to shitty autotranslate.
Its still hilarious to watch
I think the struggle is the concept, actually..
I would LOVE to see him colab with a German who explains the jokes to him.
But one who has just a really basic understanding of the english language and actually makes everything worse.
@@lepep5365the concept is deliberatly making mistakes so that more people comment and engage with the video.
Well, usually ich_iel doesn't make it any easier with their unnecasary translated words, but I agree the autotranslation in this video outstandingly bad.
First his attemt and pronunciation, then trying to figure it out (AI helps a bit), then the explanation. Otherwise the whole concept makes no sense.
Although I couldn't explain some of them.
"Menge" translates to "set" in a mathematics context. And the syntax with the curly braces and commas is used.
And the word "Menge" is there, because it's the family name of the car repair shops (or car dealership) owner.
So what both wanna say: yeah, you were right. Kudos 👏
You were right, you are offen right youre a realy smart dude
@@2kReels A set and an array aren't the same. He was close though.
10:50 That part of Germany is Saxony and the Finnish word for Germany is Saksa (Saxony).
.When Finns first encountered Germans, it was traders from today's Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein, the old settlements of the Saxon tribes, which were famously overthrown and forcibly converted to Christianity by Charlemagne during the Saxon Wars in the 8th century.

14:28 the caption is 100% wrong. 😅
"Markus Söder from Alps-Germany wants to know: It is weekend. Bubatz (Weed) and the Gender star finally got banished. How do you and your friends celebrate that all drugs are illegal now?"
"With a delicous beer and antisocial drunkenness"
"Correct answer."
To understand that properly: Markus Söder (Prime Minister of Bavaria) is against Weed etc. but sees no problem in alcoholism.
And besides the clip is AI generated, it originates from a Show which is called "Genial daneben" where one weird and/or funny question got asked and the 5 celebrities had to guess the answer (they had a lot of hilarious/funny answers)
It was "Bergdeutschland" so "mountain Germany". Wasn't sure what Bubatz is so thanks for that.
That meme with Gru and his Chart show the beginning lyrics of a really popular German song, "alles nur geklaut" (=everything's stolen)
Literally every German can sing along
The joke being that the lyrics are stolen.
Which is obvious due to the entire nation knowing the song.
hör ich mir gleich nochmal an.
E o Eo
14:27 the captions are 100% hallucinated. I don't think it's made for other laguages😅
2:02 Haue = spanking
Haut = skin
Or beating as in hitting - einer aus Niedersachsen
This relates to the song "Manchmal haben Frauen..." von Die Ärzte.
12:00 It's a joke how the jelly doughnut is called in Germany. In the green region, it's called Berliner. In the blue, it's Pfannkuchen (pancake). In the red region, it's called Kreppel or Kräppel. Yellow places call it Krapfen and, in the violet spots, it's called Faschingskrapfen (Carnival donuts), because it's usually sold during Carnival.
And to make the confusion complete the other regional names are often used for different foods in a region.
„Mit Kanonen auf Spatzen scheißen“ should definitely be printed on mugs and shirts in your merch shop. It literally means „to shit on sparrows with cannons“
@@ismodeus7790 Read again xD (don't know if it's intended, though)
while the acutal saying is "to shoot on sparrows with cannons" meaning to make much more effort for something that it is actually worth.
Na, den Durchfall will ich nicht haben. xD Zum Glück heißt's aber "schießen", was im Zusammenhang mit Kanonen ja auch iiirgendwie Sinn gibt.
The kissing meme shows two youtubers, rezo and parabelritter. One is from the former east the other from the west. The kiss referenzes the bruderkuss of honecker and gorbatschow that was immortalized on the berlin wall.
Edit: ich hatte es nochmal gegoogelt, aber lass mich gerne belehren, dass es Breschnew war. Ich dachte das "former west" was implied, obwohl man klugscheissend sagen kann, dass nach artikel 23 GG die DDR sich aufgelöst bzw. Der BRD beigetreten ist. So dass rechtlich das eine noch existiert, das andere aber nicht. Eine echte Vereinigung nachder sich beide Vorgänger Staaten auflösen hätte nach artikel 146gg passieren müssen.
*former West

How Google cannot translate sparkasse but gets the Tattoo ants From the insite Part perfectly 😂
None of the translations made ANY sense xD
Yeah, particularly trippy AI today.
9:05 Eyy-ooo, Ey-o!And since the last vid is horribly translated for some reason:
"Markus Söder from Mountain Country (aka Bavaria) asks the following: It's a weekend, pot and the gender asterisk have been banned for good, how do you and the boys celebrate that all drugs are illegal now?"
"With a good beer and an antisocial drunken stupor"
"Right answer!"
😃 😅 🎙 🎶 🎵
Oh Yes, I liked it and sang along a lot 😊
(to the song from " Die Prinzen") it was heard in radio for years. !
The meme about the "Nutella" was about Das - Der - Die, the joke was hidden in the Dino-Teller (wrongly spelled like Die Nutella) with Dino as the short form of "Dinosaurier"
This took me a second until I said it out loud.
thanx
3:50 If you've ever tried to move a graphic just a few mms in Word - you know.
The thing is, you don't. You set an image anchor and in 'Formatiere Graphik' you align the image with the text (over ,under, inline etc)
@@Orbitalbomb Yes, right. You do this once. And then you have a 60-page document, let it auto-generate footnotes and then delete or replace some paragraphs at the beginning. And then see where that leaves your nicely anchored graphic. At least that's what it was like ten years ago. Maybe it improved since then.

What tool do you use to translate any of this??? I've never seen a translation tool fail more 😂😂😂😂😂
The glasses with the pictures. Well I don't have these. But some with other cartoon characters like smurfes. Those were mustard glasses our mothers used to wash after finishing, so we can use it as glasses
I got some of those Cola glasses when the restaurant downstairs went bancrupt due to the pandemic restrictions. They are just great - even without Coke.
that's the point why so many mustard brands printed comics on their glasses and designed them to be used afterwards. Concurrence again. If a family has kids (or even without), the choice which brand to buy could have a whole different switch choosing the comic more than the content itself 🙂
Huh, I thought those were old Nutella glasses from a special branded run.
@CornedBee possible. My mum didn't bought Nutella, just nusspli xD so I just got the mustard ones
@@ServanofGisborne Yes its from nutella, i have a view with simpsons and football players. unfortunately they dont sell those anymore. :(
Boom Boom Boom Boom is a song by Vengaboys
Song is a bit of an exaggeration though 😂
And boom boom boom boom (ich bring euch alle um) a song by K.I.Z.
And the national anthem of the Netherlands!
I don't get why girls call themselves "boys"!
Asterix and Obelix (french drawer)You don't know. There are Movies and many Books and TV Serials (comics you would say) in Europe. It's about a small Gallic Villages which doesn't want to be ruled by Rome. They have a Druid and other ppl. The Druid makes rhe special drink which makes you stronger for a While. Obelix can't drink from it cause when he was a Kid he fell into a Big Pot of that Zaubertrank and he was strong forever! They have 2 fighting Fish Sellers who are fighting for who has the freshest fish, their Bard can't sing, a small Dog called Idefix. An old Guy Methusalix (from an old greek or so Gods Tale, Sagen, Legends(?) Methusalem) who is married to the young most beautiful Lady at the Village. There is a bad Leader and a Wife which is more of a Leader than him. Ita great Village and they Beat the Imperium Roma. Best Kids Book/Comic ever.
Obelix can drink the magic potion. He's usually just not allowed to because it would be a waste and the effect a bit unpredictable. Also they make jokes about him trying to get it anyway in very obvious ways. He gets to drink it once or twice IIRC but not sure in which stories.
The fight over the fish is between the fishmonger (who claims it's fresh) and the blacksmith (who claims it isn't and reeks). IIRC it's said a few times that they just want an excuse to start a friendly fight.
Methusalem is from the Bible which claims he got close to 1000.
For the Nutella meme:
People argue over which of the kind guy has "der", "die" or "das" Nutella. Each is correct, as it is a registered fantasy word and even the manufacturer of the spread says it doesn't matter.
Since "dinosaur" has a "di", which can be extended with an "e" for the article "die" and the plate is shouted in German "Teller" and you spoke it like “Tella“, you can then read this as plumb: "Dino Teller" or in reference to Nutella: "DiNutella" → “Die Nutella“.
The thing with the pastry war is refering to the never ending war about the name of the Krapfen/the Pfankuchen/the Berliner
The best description for these (for Americans) that I've heard is:
A jelly filled donut (doughnut) without a hole through it, and standardly topped with powdered sugar.

5:39 "Perso" short for "Personalausweis" = ID card (identity card)
The "Ich schreibe einen Hit" Meme refers to a song by the band "Die Prinzen" called "Alles nur geklaut". The video for that song is hilarious, you should watch it.
The third picture with the female wrestler refers to a song by “Die Ärzte - Manchmal Haben Frauen”
And the translation was a bit off...
My deceased grandparents also had thick blankets that were always nice and cozy. When I visited there as a child during the school holidays , I was always allowed to sleep in the middle with them. Unfortunately they often snored too loudly.😅
13:30 these are EXACTLY the glasses you can find in my kitchen.
all of them. 😂
10:45 This state of Germany is called Saxony. The Finns refer to the whole of Germany as Saxony (Saksa)
Probably because the Saxons were the first "Germanic tribe" they had contact with. Same reason why Germany is called Allemagne in French, because of the Alamans
1:47 That's not an impaled head but Ronald puking two streams of vomit.
The meme at 8:50 is a reference to a 90s pop song by the band "Die Prinzen" which is called "Alles nur geklaut" (everything's just stolen/ripped off) about a musician that gets rich stealing from other artists and lives a lavish life in the end.
11:30 No, not pancakes. That's just what the East says for Berliner/Krapfen. And it's not a doughnut. This is just a map for the word the regions use for a Berliner.
Good Sir, I think you are mistaken. The were called Krapfen when last I looked.
Technically they are donuts, though.
9:35 those two are Germany’s (probably) most famous political RUclipsrs. Der Dunkle Parabelritter, the one on the left, is from eastern Germany, and the one on the right, Rezo, is from western Germany.
This imitates the super well known painting on the Berlin Wall, between Erich Honecker and Breschnew (Soviet politician ), which originally occurred at the 30th anniversary of the GDR.
Both earn their money with anti-German/anti-democratic content. Rezo in particular is known for his drug addiction and hostility towards Germany
Yeah he is a well known anarchist too@@DieGurke_
last nutella pic is "dino teller". teller means plate and there's a dino on it
DINO TELLER
DIE NUTELLA (die = female)
Pronounced in the right way the sound is quite similar.
12:07 It’s about how people call the Pastry, like Berlins don’t call it Berliner but rather Pfannkuchen, which translates to Pancakes
The moment when suddenly the image of Rezo and Der dunkle Parabelritter kissing popped up xD
Hadn't laughed so hard in a while
9:40 Mit Kannen auf Spatzen SCHEISST!
Ich sterbe xD
10:44 The meme references the Finnish name for Germany, which is "Saksa". It stems from the tribe of the Saxons (which were the 1st Germanic tribe to make contact with the Finns I guess?) and nowadays the state of Sachsen(Saxony) is named after them, which is the state was marked red in the meme.
and Saxony Createt the people of UK (with the netherlands) so basicly every UK dude has backroots to german ancestors
wich then you can say america does had a war in their country („american civil war“ but you can say its was a German-German War to… the the Germans was involving in this agains the „British“)
and during the backstory the british people have you can call it a German-German War
Yes, as the historical Saxons were the tribes living in today's Lower Saxony and southern Schleswig-Holstein. It were probably Saxon trading ships the Finns first encountered. Today's Saxony got it's name by dynastical shenanigans and lots of bribery during the 12th and the 15th century. In the 12th century, the Welfs lost the Dukedom of Saxony. It was carved up into several smaller dukedoms, and the eastern one was given to a new aristocratic family, the Askanians. In the 15th century, the last Askanian heir died without sons, hence his title went to the new aristocratic family of Wettin, who were margraves of Meissen at the time. So the title "Duke of Saxony" over several centuries moved upstream of the Elbe river until it reached today's Saxony.
thanks for the explanation
@@SiqueScarface this movement up the Elbe stopped for a while after the middle ages which gave us Sachsen-Anhalt
@@kleinweichkleinweichIt's a little more complicated. Yes, it stopped for about 250 years with the Askanians, who ruled places around today's Saxony-Anhalt. But the name Saxony-Anhalt does not derive from that time. When Frederick de Belligerent was awarded the Dukedom of Saxony, he also got the Churkreis, the region around today's Halle and Wittenberg, because that was the deed the Dukedom was coupled to. In 1815, during the Congress of Vienna, the Churkreis was annected by Prussia and renamed into Province of Saxony (probably to enrage the King of Saxony). After World War II, the formerly separate Country of Anhalt was united with the Prussian province of Saxony and Magdeburg to the new Country Saxony-Anhalt by the Allies, but was dissolved into Bezirk Halle and Bezirk Magdeburg by East Germany in 1952.
8:54 „Schreibe einen Hit“ likes taken from German song „Alles nur geklaut“ ~ „everything simply stolen“ … artist „Die Prinzen“.
The pastry war meme refers to a pastry that many americany might call jellyfilled donut.
It has different names in different regions and if you want to start a heated (but funny) argument, you can just bring it up (espeially when people from different regions are present xD
Some call them "Berliner", some call them "Krapfen", some (especially in the east) call them Pfannkuchen (which is a completely different food everwhere else - something similar to a crepe) and some call it "Kräppel". Everyone is funnily really protective about their way to name it xD
(Where I live we call them Kräppel. Berliner is known as well. Krapfen is rarely used and no one would get the idea to call it Pfannkuchen, as that it a different food item/dish)
(It was the one and only thing everyone from the 3 other fraction could agree on - Pfannkuchen is a different dish, which all of the Pfannkuchen fraction deeply decline/Contradict xD)
It's a funny "war" going on like forever an it will probably never stop xD
In the East it's called Pfannkuchen because the pancakes are called Eierkuchen. And you cannot call it Berliner as Berlin is part of the East. And Krapfen in the East are similar to Pfannkuchen, but more crispier outside and not so tasty inside and without jam.
@@reinhardheim6008 Then wie can just all call it Kräppel (joke xD)
I lived in Görlitz for about half a year and was really confused when I tried to buy one. The person in the bakery didn't even know what "Kaffeestückchen" where xD And I was lost when a customer wanted to buy "Stutzen" which are called Mumis or "Mini-Chrysanrhemen" where I am from.
It felt kind of unreal that all these things (and others) had different names, while still being in germany xD It was quite the experience and is really funny to think back xD
8:15 "menge" is a term used in math in Germany and the so called "array" is actually a "menge", which in English is called a "set", which list all it's elements as shown in the picture. Here the "menge" is a set of cars xD
Olaf Scholz as Bundeskanzler couldnt even get his name right ( Scholoz). So he had to proof that its him ( self)
12:40 the VW is a model from 15 years ago he was talking about his car being 15 xD
the microsoft word meme:
it's a (not rellated to german in any way, works the same in english) joke about word formatting.
word says "you can move the media slightly so it aligns"
and the user says "surely you'll leave my formatting alone?" ... "without ruining the formatting?"
the joke being that those two text boxes got completely fucked over by the formatting
"this dude" lol it's our chancellor
The Asterix and Obelisk glasses are old mustard glasses from a french company, which is/was very popular in Germany.
And about every German Granny cleaned and kept them as drinking glasses. Especially great to be used in the garden, as you got put the original lid back on to keep insects out and handier than regular glasses for children.
I clearly remember them from my own childhood.
Hate to say it, but most of these memes really suck - even in german...
7:00 Tell me you never use public transport without telling me you never use public transport.
To explain the Dinosaur on the plate: In Germany it's a meme that there's always argued about the grammatical gender of the chocolate creme "Nutella". The meme first lists the masculine form of "the Nutella" (der Nutella), then the neuter form (das Nutella) and when it comes to the feminine form, there's a plate with a dinosaur on it, because "Dino-Teller", the German translation of "dinosaur plate", sounds similar to Nutella's feminine form "die Nutella". So it's a German pun
the "everything is signposted in two languages" meme:
the road name is "Spar-gasse" which means "saving alley".
'Sparkasse' is a Bank which is in the same street. (the sign is specifically for the parking)
the joke is that the saxony dialect tends to soften their Ks so they pronounce Sparkasse as Spargasse
1:03
Der Nutella is the masculine version, das Nutella the neutral version, and ‘Dinoteller’ (which means Dino Plate) sounds like ‘Die Nutella’ which is the female version.
That the last meme is literally breaking the 4th dimension, I can’t stop laughing
Explanation: the subtitles have nothing to do with what was said, so he was clueless about the punchline, because the actual things that were said, included a lot of alcohol
The last video is from a guessing show, the four people get ask a question from the gamemaster and then they have to guess it. In this csenario he asks:„Weed and Drugs are now illegal, so what do you do with the boys the next evening?" And Bernard Hoëcker, one of the Guessers said:" A delicious Bierchen (I assume you know what that means) and a complete intoxication with weed (We have a nice little word for that "Vollrausch") ". And the gamemaster instantly said: "richtige Antwort", so in English "right answer"
Those thing with the glasses is a classic German thing, but the choice of the glasses in the second picture was a bit unfortunate. Those four glasses are empty mustard glasses. And in Germany many mustard glasses are fashioned in such a way, that they become simple drinking glasses when emptied of mustard and washed. We call it "Senfkristall" and the different producers of mustard know this and some sell the mustard in decorated glasses for you to collect. You buy their mustard until you have an entire set of new and decorated drinking glasses.
Thank you for adding "Senfkristall" to my vocabulary. It's... it's beautiful!
2:45 - I'm born in Saxony and there people speak softer and the k is spoken as a g - that's what this meme is about... I rolled on the floor laughing.
Coal is a dying industry, Australia is already transitioning out of it
To The „Pastry War“. It’s about one type of Pastry that every region calls different. The „Grosser Berliner Bund“ Callst it „Berliner“, The „Alliance der Pfannkuchen“ call it „Pfannkuchen“, The „Krapfen Liga“ Calls it „Krapfen“ etc. So you basically can say in the way they call this Pastry from wich of this regions in Germany and Austria they are. It has something to do with the Dialects I think
Der Nutella, das Nutella, (DieNu)tella.
14:20 the caption actually had absolutely nothing to do with the video. dont know why it translated to that it was about drinking
1:21 the plate w/ the dinosaur is "Dino-Teller" wich sounds like "die Nutella". it`s a meme in germany to ask people if its die Nutallla, der Nutella or das Nutella
Our cupboard is full of those two kinds of glasses, as well as former mustard and small Nutella cups.
The captions for the last video aren't even close, I assume that the auto caption tool expected English instead of German. It's a clip from a German comedy quiz show. The host and the contestants are known comedians and actors. Viewers send in questions and the contestants have to answer them, but the questions are usually very hard or about niche topics, so they have some funny discussions about what may be the answer. The voices in the clip are AI generated.
Translation:
Host: "Markus Söder (minister president of Bavaria) from Mountain-Germany asks: It's the weekend, weed and gender inclusive speech have finally been banned. How do you and the boy celebrate, that all drugs are illegal now?"
Contestant: "Delicious beer and total intoxication"
Host: "Correct answer"
(I had to take some liberties with the translation because a lot of the words were either hard to translate without an entire paragraph of explanations or were not "proper" words. For example, the word that was used for weed was "Bubatz", it's used for weed, but it's a rather new word, that is mainly used jokingly by rather young people. It's not something you would expect to hear from the Host, or the person that submitted the question. Before the legalization it was a trend to ask "When Bubatz legal?", either in the comments under posts from politicians or even in person at events. Hearing the word from a politician is so unexpected, that it was practically the only topic on German Reddit for a few days, when our minister of finance tweeted "Bubatz soon legal")
"Die Nutella" (female the Nutella) sounds like "Dino Teller" (dinosaur plate) and this very meme solved a problem for me that lasted over decades now. :D

Dear Mr. Wass,
I was a bit surprised that you didn't know about the Asterix comics, which have so many translations that I thought would be known all over the world.
Well, everyone can make mistakes, including me,
but that brings with it an opportunity to warmly recommend this French comic series to you.
In short, it's about a Gallic village that successfully keeps the Roman legions away with the help of their druid's magic potion.
The character was created in 1959 and the first film was: "Asterix the Gaul" (1967), and to this day there are several animated and live-action adaptations, although the latter do not come close to the drawn ones.
Very funny, lots of adventures and some, depending on the year of publication, are freely accessible on RUclips.
Greetings, from non-Bavaria-Germany
That last one was hilarious.
The CSU (headed by Söder) is doing anything it can to uphold the new Cannabis law in letter but not in spirit. Bavaria might end up less free than before. But that is to be expected from a state ruled by the same conservative party since its inception.
Anyways, the video is AI generated (which is scary) but depicts a 100% realistic (aside from the question) looking scenario of German game show where they are presented a viewer question and have to figure out the answer.
The video roughly went:
You are Söder and Cannabis has been legalised. What do you do? And the immediate, correct answer was "get blackout drunk with my mates" (the CSU is a bunch of alcoholic hypocrites).
About the video at the end: The captions are completely wrong. It is a satire on Markus Söder, Ministerpräsident (like a governor) of Bavaria and his stance on "Bubatz" (pot) and gender inclusive language, i.e. writing for example Ärtz*innen to combine the male form (Ärtze) and the female form (Ärztinnen). It is important to know that Söder does not think that alcohol is a drug. The asterisk is called "Gendersternchen" (little gender star).
The setup is a game show where the panel has to find answers to questions submitted by viewers that usually go into some absurd direction. The name of the show is “genial daneben”, which means something like “off, but in a genius way”. My attempt at a translation would be the following:
Hugo Egon Blader (the host): "Markus Söder from mountainous Germany asks: 'It is weekend. “Bubatz” and the “Gendersternchen” were banned permanently. How do you and the boys celebrate that now all drugs are illegal?’”
Bernhard Hoëcker (of the panel): “A delicious beer and an antisocial drunken stupor.”
Hugo Egon Balder: “Correct answer.”
I hope that helps. And yes, boys is supposed to be old fashioned. The German expression "Buben" is as well.
9:39 the one with blue hair is a very famous German RUclipsr named Rezo
The one about writing a hit is a reference to a popular german song, called "alles nur geklaut" by Die Prinzen ( "Everything's just stolen")
Asterix is a Gallier(France), that fights against Rome with his friends like Obelix, about 8 films exist from 20-40minutes
14:46 The Subtitles had nothing to do with the Video. They should be more like this:
Markus Söder from the mountain region of Germany(Bavaria) is asking: Its Weekend. Cannabis and the Genderstar are now banned. How do you and the boys celebrate that all Drugs are now illegal?
With delicious beer and passing out
That's the right answer.
(cheering)
dude you need to react to asterix and obelix
In different dialects. 😂
If you don't know Asterix, you must watch or read it. It is the finest peak of European culture. But maybe on your other channel. Or just with your wife on the couch and in English. Yes, Asterix in America, it is perfect.
1:24 der = male, das = neutral, and the plate is meant to be "Dino-Teller" which sounds very similar to "die Nutella" (die = female)
6:54: that "Würze" is the main product of Maggi, a company that mostly sells spices and instant food. Since they belong to Nestle, you should avoid them ;)
14:10 The coke glass (in its many iterations) is from McDonalds promotions. The other one is AFAIK from Ikea. And the ones with prints on them were originally filled with mustard or some sweet bread spread like Nutella. Pretty much any household I know has at least some of them with all kinds of comic/Disney characters on them.
3:13 Yes, that's Word. The meme is about inserting images into text in Word. If you try to move the image, parts of the text move with it. That's why the images in the meme are so jumbled and the sentences are cut up scattered across the image.
7:23 I immediately pictured the chaos on trains and busses when somebody, if not everybody tries to immediately get inside even tho there's people wanting to leave said vehicle that are standing right in front of the darn doors.
And the comparison to some english folks, gently and carefully trying to push towards the plane doors was hilarious xD Germans: 🪓🩸🗡⚔💣 English folks: 😠🦯
Dude, did you just call that garlic an onion? 😂
12:30 the age of consent is different in Germany compared to the US.
Our teenagers have more freedom in choosing who they want to be with or want to have sex with as long as there’s no dependency between the adult and the teenager as in teacher and student or sports coach and athlete. They also can’t pressure the teenager into something, obviously. But as long as the teenagers makes an independent decision society and the law have to respect that. I won’t list all the age restrictions here but it’s different compared to the US, that’s all you need to know.
To explain the thing with Glasses - germans have a rather odd source of glasses. Old mustard containers. 99% of my glasses were once ex-mustard containers... though since the new versions all have screw-caps integrated into the glass I may need to find a new source. Mustard companies (Used to, at least) know this - and sell their mustard in neatly designed glasses to cater. Thus the set of mustard glasses to the theme of 'Asterix and Obelix' (a comic).
I was laughing about the Spargasse joke SO hard :D Don't know why, some jokes are just surprisingly good (the dumber they are I guess).
So the last clip, the captions are completely wrong. At the top it says KI-Satire which means AI-Satire. The content is something about drugs laws probably, don't care to translate cause didn't catch it first time.
Thank you Ryan for the awesome content ❤
In the Last Video is Like
"Markus Söder would like to know: now that Weed is legal in Germany, how do I and the Boys "kill" the evening?"
And the answer was
"Tasty Beer and a complete brain meltdown"
"Correct answer"
*Cheering people*
7:05min That's the most American thing I ever heard! You think about flying rather than taking a train or bus. Hilarious!
Where they deboard the plane before letting anyone else in.
12:11 is about an German pastry that is called different in different regions some call it Krapfen and some call it Pfannenkuchen and many people in Germany make war about which word is the right one
14:05 i think the coca cola glas was from McDonalds xD every household i know of has them xD
Left McDonalds right ikea i, have them both, at the bottom mustard glasses with Asterix and Obelix on it
9:38 No, that's not Ninja... That's the German RUclipsr / Streamer Rezo
Hogo Egon Balder: "Markus Söder from mountain germany asks: It is weekend. Ganja and the gender star (*) have been finally banished. How do you and the boys celebrate that all drugs are illegal?"
Bernhard Hoëcker: "Tasty beer and antisocial drunkness."
Balder: "Right!"
That's not a perfect but a more accurate translation than this "bad thing, good guy" gibberish.
It's from a show called Genial Daneben, where the host (Hugo Egon Balder) asked difficult questions, which people sent in before the show. The 5 invited players must try to guess the right answer.
Markus Söder is a politician from Bavaria, who is an opponent of the legalization of cannabis. but he's of course pro alcohol. This a**hole.
1:22 the female article in german is "die"
Context to the Pastry War: All mean the same Produkt, but many parts of Geermany don´t know its called Krapfen.
German car companies are already switching to electric cars, mostly be electric by 2035
Is that ninja? XD that one got me really bad XD
9:00 The meme is referencing the song "Alles nur geklaut" by Die Prinzen. The song is making fun of itself by saying everything is just stolen, which is why everybody has heard it already.
The Finnish word for Germany is Saksa, named after the Saxons. The red marked area is the state Saxony.
Not sure if that line is supposed to be mean everyone knows it because its stolen, or if that's not still in the line of playing up the success of the song, stating that everyone has already heard it because it's just that successful.
