    Yes always good to see a fellow frog!

    So this meme would only make sense in Old High German.

    That is interesting.

    Thanks for the info.

      So this meme would only make sense in Old High German.

      Maybe I put it wrong, but it works even better in modern Germany: “Stuhl” means chair in modern German. The joke/pun is well-known in German: “Darf ich Ihnen den Stuhl zurückschieben?” So unlike in the English version, “Stuhl” literally both means “chair” and “poop”.

        It’s probably me misunderstanding. Thank you for the correction.
