German sense of humor (?)
Is there, the famous German sense of humor, attesting not only foreigners but also time the Germans own support?
I tend to say there is "no." The Germans come to me the other way around often enough before and hilarious people, a people that is to have happy and contented for some fun. Especially at the exact spot where the outsider does not realize that it should be fun. Therefore Loriot laughs before the camera: the fun factor should be increased with feigned seriousness yet.
In the sense I have on my XING profile Organizational affiliations an imaginary club, are the VEmBgT, or: Eimsbüttler club with a balcony for pigeons. After all, as so few people I know, I live in Eimsbüttel and got nervous a balcony and pigeons. And it is the unofficial club for that reason. And that's a core area of German humor: the exaggeration to absurdity in the organization of trying Nichtzuorganisierenden. The
some Michaela Schalk yesterday evening to the late hour at all understood but no more. In a XING message with the subject line "What's that for your club?" barks at me which I previously unknown woman Schalk, someone should "find more of a positive solution for all living beings."
Uh, that was now the German humor, aware of turns and full of fake sincerity?
Or does the woman not stop the wag understood?
And - wait a minute, * * look at her profile - she is working Schalk not McDonalds? A company that can so excited about "for all living beings positive solutions," it cut down whole forests, animals slaughtered in genocidal excessive number and still on top of the world's children are obese do?
Or is also part of a very German joke?
