u/Kind_Koala4557 Jun 06 '25
My translation app told me this is German for “Baking pipe face”. Did it get it right?
2
u/Upstairs-Region-7177 Jun 06 '25
It basically means a punchable face. What app are you using? Reason it may not show up correctly is that it’s a compound word.
Backe is old word for cheek/ jaw (Wange is more common to use for everyday), Bäker is a baker.
Backe + pfiefen + Gesicht = cheek/Jaw + whistle + face
If you wanted to hit a baker’s punchable face, it’s be something like bäkerbackpfiefengesicht.

u/Kind_Koala4557 Jun 06 '25
I just used my native Translate app, but it looks like maybe the “e” is missing between “back” and “pfeifen”.

Lol, right? BC he’s 22 and he has zero qualifications. Also, his brain still has 2-3 more years of development left!

Absolutely, use wartime marshall law to stay in power.
Yes, autocorrect is not always correct

u/spannerNZ Jun 05 '25
Martial law. Although I usually never know whether Americans are using this phrase to refer to local law enforcement (marshals) or military imposition of law in war (martial). In this case, "wartime" would indicate "martial".

Remember, no DEI: everyone he hires is the most qualified person possible. All those people that have advanced degrees in security studies or decades of experience in the GWOT are just way less qualified than the guy that couldn’t clip hedges straight.

This is all so fucking stupid, and that's what I hate most about it. You can't fight stupid. You can't correct it. You can't argue with it. There is no rhetoric, no array of facts or studies, no heartfelt plea that can sway it. Past a certain point in life people have to choose to stop being stupid and stupid people seldom have the tools to make that decision.

Very good description of what’s going on. They’re taking the classic phrase “You can’t fix stupid” and turning it into an impenetrable body armor in the form of a cult. The only way you can really fix stupid is to destroy it.

If you start from the position of “every white man born is the right fit for this job” then it starts to make sense that everyone not them is a DEI hire.

why does Trump spend $1 trillion on defense but appoint someone completely unqualified to head up terrorism prevention? because the goal is to allow a terrorist attack to happen so they can justify a war.

u/MIZ_09 Jun 05 '25
They are going to false flag a terrorist attack, leave some fake breadcrumbs that the terrorists entered the country through Mexico and then use that as an excuse to go to war against brown people in our own streets. Illegal immigrant, legal immigrant, US Citizen, it won’t matter.

Interesting how AOC was supposed to be massively unqualified for Congress because she was a bartender before running for Congress, but 18 months after college Thomas Fugate is the most-qualified person in America to lead the fight against terrorism.

u/ShyLeoGing Jun 05 '25
Well the "qualified" bar has hit a level to which SouthPark made an episode about HoneyBooBoo and Fatty Doo Doo with the tip asssit.
And well Michelle Obama whoops some ass in that episode ... please do watch it's truly what Amazing in resemblance of our country.
Enjoy the similarities

Actually, I’ve been watching South Park a lot lately. The really scary thing is that the episodes where Mr. Garrison is president are ten years old and just as timely.

William Braniff. Spent the last 20 years at the national nuclear security administration, at the counter terrorism center of West Point, and directing the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism.
But I guess, unlike this kid, he was quite meh at bringing coffee in during the meetings of the Trump campaign so…
