    Default In a few years I may be glad I don't live in Germany!

    Well I was reading TVTropes(is it still 2013? hard to tell when you visit that place. It is like the land of the fae) and came across this -

    'In North-Rhine Westphalia and other parts of Germany, there is a tradition that any man who is over 30 and unmarried has to sweep rubbish from the steps of the town hall until he is released by the kiss of a virgin. '

    Well trout. . . that is just rubbing salt in!


    STILL Updating the anime list. . . I didn't think I was that much of an anime freak! I don't even want to consider updating the manga list!

    That seems rather insane, to be honest, but kind of cool in an equally weird way.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    There really can't be that much rubbish, can there? Like, is the town hall on a trash heap or something? If you're going to leave litter, you're hardly going to walk up the town hall steps and drop it there.

    I will be on those steps until the day I die.

    Bring it on.
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    So this is why I tag at least 3 Germans per day on the DS street pass, they're escaping!

    Think that this might have something to do with their very low birth rate. Maybe if they get married sooner they will have more babies?

    I think most men would prefer to sweep rubbish...
