apart from its most popular meaning, chili is also the tunisian name for a dry wind (de) coming from the sahara desert.

salat is not just the german word for lettuce. it’s also the name of the daily prayers of muslims.

in greek mythology, ajax the great was the son of the king of salamis.

and …my two favorites: boobies are groups of birds. as are tits.
 

next time you use any of these words, please make sure you’re not completely misunderstood. ;-)

would you consider buying a condoms that are called “fun explosion”?
would you buy any condom with the name “explosion” in it?
which would you prefer – fun explosion or family package condoms?
 
i’m not kidding: durex fun explosion

(saw it in the grocery store the other day)

WE WERE RIGHT!
we finally have proof: armin must have been the model for the prinzenrolle1 prince!

armin obviously served as the model for the prince of prinzenrolle oreos!

the crown would perfectly fit his haircut, and that smile is so much alike, i can hardly tell them apart in the photo ;-)

  1. kind-of like a big chocolate-cream oreo []

the european soccer championship is just about to start here in central europe, and three games will be held in innsbruck.
this pretty much divides tirol into two groups of people: those who love the UEFA, and those who hate it.

partly related: the 27th silly olympiad

i think the youtube title describes it better than any other combination of words: it really is a “creepy-ass noodle commercial”.

it’s such a fine day (now that the exam is over), i thought i’d share a revised version of my childhood memories:

i’m not sure how popular biene maja (maya the bee) is/was in the english-speaking parts of the world, or if you know the show at all. it was relatively popular in my kindergarten era…
