So i'd say this article is a bit off the mark. Nice blog, though!

On the north american continent this would be in Canada. Therefore it's quite warm in Germany. The main part of Germany lies a latitude bigger than 49.

With English no bells ring when certains words starting with f or s come to mind. (Plus English is a so much cooler language to curse in. All German curses sound crappy [that okay?] and are highly impractical.) @Editor

“And as for Sunday shopping, I have a word for you: Tankstelle!”

And I have two words for you: [really] expensive.

But you have arguably to be really bad at organizing your life if you cannot even survive one day without buying stuff.
