Not an auspicious beginning to that morning-after conversation. You can look up the meaning of “fotze” for yourself, if you’re over 18.
Thank you to everybody who came by Webcomics Weekend! It was a lovely way to end this merciless year of conventions. Now that I’m home I can finally finish off those last eight pre-order watercolor paintings (!), wash all my socks, and hopefully hit a long string of uninterrupted updates.
Next week will be page 200! Holy mackerel.
Heh
since I was glossing over the page first without reading it, the Fotze caught my eye immediately as a native German speaker… my first thought was “Uhm, surely it means something different? Or maybe it’s a wrong translation?”
But it fits perfectly within the context…
I wonder how Luther will react to it, if at all. That IS a pretty serious insult, even today. I can’t imagine it was considered any nicer back then.
Haha! Yep, I triple-checked that I had the right insult. (A few other misogynist swears didn’t have the right literal translation, but apparently this one is universal.)
Well, if you ever need help with German insults, just write me a mail.
That sounds a lot worse than it’s supposed to be… haha
