Seems Germany would be heaven to this userbase.
Pose a question, expect a no-nonsense, factual answer. Don't be offended but appreciate the candor and brevity. Get back to being productive so you can leave for a timely Feierabend like everyone else.
To be fair, this would probably still be considered very unusual in Germany. You're not obligated to do a while song and dance, but uf you do this I would assume it's a very deadpan joke.
I was watching a YouTube video for Americans on what not to do when visiting Germany. I was thinking that I would love to live in Germany throughout the video for the reasons you stated.
"Halo, Servus!" -Feli
American here and I am in constant jealousy of Germany.
have you seen america? most of the world is at least somewhat better
Nope, you are right
Yay I'm purdy :3
I don't know German so I am going to assume that a Feierabend is going on a bender with Guy Fieri
I think it's the Anglicism of manners. For some reason in English we demand one lie to protect everyone's feelings.
