Bruno Ganz deserved an Oscar, but, well you know who runs Hollywood ....
Simples, IMDB is your friend.
Reality check for you
Switzerland has less smokers than Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Norway and Britain, not to speak of Spain and Austria or Greece
And in some cases both as a % of the population and in absolute numbers...
I think it was just one of those posts... Start a thread that you know everyone will jump on and then just sit back and watch the magic.
True, but the Swiss who do not smoke drink those damned energy drinks, don't own microwave ovens, speak languages other than English, and blow their noses loudly.
All of those things apparently irritate the hell out of the OP.
AussieSwiss, when will you be departing?
It's called "Der Untergang" in the German version. The actor playing Hitler is called Bruno Ganz and is actually Swiss.
- I do not drink energy drinks but don't know what is bad about them
- most Swiss own microwave ovens
- I however enjoy blowing the nose loudly enough to be heard
Cheers
FTFY!

Is today Groundhog day or something? Haven't we seen all this many times already?
Sugar, taste, fake fix... just the stereotype, that's all.
It is not just ASs who believes the Swiss don't use them http://www.englishforum.ch/1703616-post4.html
just
Another reality check

Auf jeden Fall sind die schnellen Öfen sehr beliebt: Jährlich gehen in der Schweiz mehr als 90 000 Apparate über den Ladentisch. «Die hohen Verkaufszahlen von Mikrowellen spiegeln den Boom bei den Fertiggerichten»,
************************************************** ***
90'000 sold per year ? means that there is more than half a milllion in actual use
and this in a country with 8 mio

Sorry, gang. Microwaves are sooo yesterday. Nowadays, modern kitchens have schteamers. Much healthier and the food tastes better.
So, at AussieSwiss's leaving party
I shall be speaking a language other than English, sub titles an option (ten francs for 15 minutes)
Brandishing an empty sprite bottle filled with the best tap water in the world
(2 francs a glass, i charge for the filling up)
And blowing smoke from my cig in his general direction- which may cause girly screaming run away towards an aircraft.....
I bet he is having a lot of fun.
Exactly.
And I prefer cigars, cigarettes are just so... vulgar.
Unfortunately, in order to keep their hard-won status, AussieSwiss has been banned from re-entering Australia.

So he will remain here.
please no
