Being German alone makes you hate that English question.

Do you want to hear it or not?!

Don't be surprised to get an answer!

Well you lot are just as bad. What's with Guten Tag? Good Day? Is it still the 1800s in Germany? We stopped using archaic language centuries ago.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

I never considered guten Tag a question. It is more of a wish. Or do you consider good morning a question too?

(and regarding archaic... 200 years are nothing in human development 😁)

This is how I feel. If you ask, I will tell you. If you don't want to know, why did you ask?

Apparently I have the soul of a German.
