What do you mean by "12 over"? The sound barrier I presume? Greeting from Germany

[-] dill@lemmy.one 9 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

12 over the speed limit. Sound barrier would probably be funnier though.

Edit: oh... That went over my head lol

[-] Norgur@kbin.social 8 points 8 months ago

What is this "speed limit" you keep bringing up?

[-] PolarisFx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 8 months ago

It's the thing that allows police in North America to justify their budgets.

[-] Norgur@kbin.social 8 points 8 months ago

Ooooh! I thought that was called "Civil forfeiture" and was about suing your home that it was a criminal or something.

I'm Canadian, that's a uniquely American experience

A quick Google search would tell you that Germany does, indeed, have speed limits lol

[-] Norgur@kbin.social -3 points 8 months ago

A quick profile search would tell you that I do, indeed, have a German driver's license because I am German and then another quick Google search might even tell you that Germany has no default speed limit on the Autobahn (and on Bundesstraßen with more than one lane) and thus has large strips of road without speed limits. Now do a quick read and you might realize that you were going down on a stupid joke with a condescending "erm, akchually"... Congratulations, you made a right fool out of yourself.

I still don't believe you're from Germany because:

  1. Most roads are not autobahns. Implying you aren't familiar with speed limits as a German is akin to implying an Italian wouldn't be familiar with level floors.

  2. The autobahns themselves are only limitless in rural areas, and even then a lot of vehicle types are still subject to limits.

The only thing I see indicating you're actually German is your sense of humor.

Schaut's euch den depperten Hund an. Googlet sich zufällige Verkehrsregeln in irgendwelchen Foren zusammen, kapiert den Witz doppelt nicht und meint dann immer noch, einen auf Macker machen zu müssen. Eher bin ich also kein Deutscher, als der Typ einfach nur den Witz ned kapiert hat. Na des hamwer gern. Grattler...

Someone knows how to use translation software. impressive.

[-] naeap@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

Nope, that's not correct enough German, that's more slang style
He really is just an idiot

So... We're down to senseless trolling, eh?

Sprich Deutsch, du Hurensohn!

I thought the rule was, "Don't break the sound barrier, survival is optional."

[-] Norgur@kbin.social 3 points 8 months ago

That's what they tell you in driving school, so... More of a suggestion.
