And they wonder why everyone hates students until given a very good reason not to.
Printing out the word 'fuck' doesn't make you look grown up or clever, but like yet another fucking waster too intent on delaying the inevitable job at Asda.

I may have overreacted slightly.
But I just get fed up with things like this. 'OMG How Random' etc etc etc. Take your Green Day hoodie and fucking hang yourself.
Not you. See, I'm talking myself up again.

German cover of Trainspotting:

Germans think it's cool, clever and random to say "fuck". Apparently.

So do Brit teenagers.
I'm guilty of using the word, but at least I don't liberally sprinkle it like punctufuckingation.
Erm....

Actually haven't spotted that many of them.
The most irritating thing (and most common thing) about German-dubbed films is the use of a subtitle to further extend the film's title.
For example, this film is called "Trainspotting - New Heroes".
edit: or how about this one:
www.amazon.de/unglaubliche-Reise-einem-verr%C3%BCckten-Flugzeug/dp/B000056FHC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1199789738&sr=8-1
Airplane. Translated as: "The unbelievable journey in a crazy aeroplane"
cocks.

i'm guessing
the distributors there assume the german public are naive idiots and won't want to buy the film without having everything explained to them in the title

I seem to remember the french versiuon of "Home Alone"
being something retarded and long winded too.
EDIT: It was called, "Mother, I missed the plane"
Maman, j'ai raté l'avion

Because they need to be told how to feel. Seriously.
If the film was called "Flugzeug"(Airplane) then they would be confused and not be prepared to laugh. Since the film is called "The unbelievable journey in a crazy aeroplane" they can prepare themselves to laugh.
You could call "Lord of the Rings" "The unbelievable journey with crazy big-footed people" and Germans would force themselves to laugh all the way through it and not know why.
For the record, when Fawlty Towers was dubbed (badly) and shown on German TV, it was called "A Crazy Hotel". Oh - and they replaced the theme music with "Dire Straits - Walk of life".

That's funny - I thought that looked like Rootes block in Warwick before I noticed the title
Ha! I was J17 from 1991-1992. One small fridge-freezer and a 3-ring cooker between 16 people, the bastards.
At least it was near the union.
