Semi-coherent conspiracy theory post about rigged elections on one of my political communities. I was willing to play along until I got to this sentence: I believe that's why Barack came as hard as he did in his speech tonight mentioning Karl Rove.

EEEEEWWWWWWWW.

"Harry moaned softly and slid his hands under Draco's shit."

That one's stayed with me for years. I wish it would go away.

I...think I need to remove my eyeballs now. And the part of my brain that's going to store that line for eternity.

Native speakers of English tend to write ei instead of ie in German words (because German i sounds like English e).

Unfortunately:
schießen = to shoot
scheißen = to shit

Yup. Some people I know a couple years ahead of me in high school in the mid-'70s were doing a video on Die Mauer for their German class, with the teacher behind the camera. (This was around the time of the first generation of home VHS video cameras.) The evil East German guard had the poor seekers of freedom in his sights, and the poor freedom-seekers meant to say "Schießen Sie nicht!" but what they actually said was "Scheißen Sie nicht!"

The teacher couldn't hold the camera steady from that point on, he was laughing so hard.

I first encountered it in a comic. There was a large group of Nazi soldiers after one poor lonely hero and then the head Nazi went "Start shitting!" ... and I was rolling on the floor laughing.
