An English couple adopted a German baby. By the age of two, he'd yet to talk.

They took him to specialists, but they could find nothing wrong with the boy.

By his seventh birthday, his parents had given up hope. But that morning while he ate breakfast, he spoke clearly: "Mother, Father, my strudel is a bit tepid."

They were astounded and overjoyed. "You can talk!"

"Yes of course" said the boy.

"But why haven't you said anything before?"

"Up to now everything has been quite satisfactory."

Is this einstein reference?

[–] dudinax@programming.dev 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I don't know. Was he adopted?

After some searching, the behavior is called Einstein syndrome and he was also German. So i thought it would be a reference

Uh no. Its just that he do not speak because he didn't need to but actually can speak...

Sometimes I feel like a bad German because I'm always late, not the biggest fan of beer, and I'm actually funny.

But I'm this friend.

German

I'm guessing a yank whose great great great great great great grandfather once wiped his cock on a strudel

Deepl is better than Google Translate for your reply, btw

This comment is quite offensive. You must be French.

I'm so sorry you're having a bad day again. Did you catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror, or are you just sapient enough to realize how much of a waste of carbon and oxygen you are?

Two, one to hold the ladder and one to explain that really the Wehrmacht were good little boys fighting valiantly for their country and they were involuntarily drafted plus they didn't even personally kill most civilians like the SS did and some of them weren't even members of the Nazi Party and . . . wait, what were we talking about again?
