So, Lit...are you a Scouser living
in the U.S.?

Nope, 1/4 Scouse, the rest is Italian. Born and Bred in the US. My club has and always will be Liverpool FC however.

I'm a huge US Nats supporter though.

The state I live in, Baden-Württemberg, has the world's dullest motto:

Wir können alles.
We can do everything.

Thankfully, everyone elsewhere in Germany takes the piss out of this by adding a bit to the end:

Wir können alles. Außer Hochdeutsch.
We can do everything. Except speak proper German.

They do have a point, the regional dialect here is pretty intense and unfathomable at times. :rolleyes:
Well, all the time, actually.
