Im in fucking Austria. Illiterate farmers the lot of them here. Nobody has ever seen a movie in English or any other language than German.
There is nothing I can quote that they would recognise.
So alone.
No Sound of Music quotes?
If I could quote it in German, maybe. Do you know any movie quotes in German? Doesn't even have to be from Sound of Music.
There was a line in Das Boot but I don't know the German. The subtitle was something like "I'm in no condition to fuck!" I've used that a few times in my life.
Are there no German language instances?
I'm not wishing you gone, I'm wishing you could find what you want.
Oh, I'm fine right here. I'm just stuck in a country that isn't my home or my culture. π€·
