Then there was my friend who was trying to sound all sophisticated and use conversational German, and he asked me "was machst du in der schildkröte"? I forget what he was actually trying to ask me but it translates to "what are you doing in the turtle?" I died laughing for at least 5 minutes and he didnt understand why, when I finally told him he got so mad, it was hilarious! I never let him live that down...
