Hey PugJesus do you speak German by chance?
Afraid not! I'm a monoglot. English is my only language.
Nothing wrong with that! Here's a meme someone thought you'd enjoy.
Roman + Tisch (table) = Romantisch (romantic)
I got the Roman-Romantic pun without translation, but clarifying that 'tisch' = 'table' brings it to a whole new level, I love it

Currently they are hooked on puns, but normally memes and frog memes on Wednesdays.
The sub is just the german version of me_irl
