" Correct German would be..."
Daaaamn, Chris; Stella shut you down cold. Also, I have learned a useful new German word today: Bumsen (Incidentally, how does one conjugate that? Is it a regular verb?)

ich bumse, du bumst, er/sie/es bumsen, wir bumsen, ihr bumst. Also the word "could" mean to bump, like I bumped in your car (?).. but nobody really says that.

It'd be "bumped into"... "I bumped in your car" means the same thing pretty much world-round, and calls for a high-five and a paper towel, instead of an exchange of insurance info.

My basic grasp of German got me everything but "Bumsen". Happily, it was close to my original thoughts.

Perhaps it is meant to be: "Dogs like no fruit", which is slightly different than "Dogs do not like fruit". In which case... maybe the German is correct?

Um, the only way Germans know how to say "Dogs don't like fruit" is to say "Dogs like no fruit."
So your suggestion is giving me brain cancer.

actually... we could have "frucht gefällt hunden nicht", which literally comes out to "fruit does not please dogs" or more smoothly "dogs do not like fruit". and then you could add "hunde mögen keine fruchte": "dogs like no fruit". "hunde mögen fruchte nicht" is "dogs do not like fruit". so, er, three cheers for pedantry 9 months later.

I guess what I meant was that "like no fruit" would be the word order used in German to mean "don't like fruit."
Assetbar doesn't like umlauts.

There is an immense novelty in just how weird Klaus Nomi is. I feel..strangely compelled to listen to more of his music. God knows what made Chris reference him here, but then again this is just typical of Achewood.

The Venture Brothers episodes "Showdown at Cremation Creek (Parts 1 & 2) would have worked even better with Klaus as a cat. All cats are countertenors. Not sure what David Bowie would be. Iggy is definitely a dog. Or one of those raccoon-cousin coatimundi/jaguarundi/kinkajou things. Achewood "Velvet Goldmine". That's what we need.

Lowenbrau is incredible. We went there for our last night in munich and they found a bomb from WW2 in the construction lot next door and we had to evacuate to 100m. Really delicious beer though

Gesellschaft is a sociological concept.
"Gemeinschaft (often translated as community) is an association in which individuals are oriented to the large association as much if not more than to their own self interest."
"In contrast, Gesellschaft (often translated as society or civil society or 'association') describes associations in which, for the individual, the larger association never takes on more importance than the individual's self interest, and lack the same level of shared mores."
From the wikipedia article. Basically modern city-dwellers live in a gesellschaft society, whereas rural denizens and nearly everybody in the past lived in a gemeinschaft society.
