minus-squareJohanno@feddit.delinkfedilinkDeutscharrow-up14·1 year agoStör (fish) = sturgeon stören (verb) = to disturb. Combine Stör with many stupid things and you get some german jokes which are so bad that they are funny again.
minus-squarerbn@feddit.chlinkfedilinkDeutscharrow-up9·1 year agoThe fish sturgeon is called “Stör” in German. The verb “to annoy” means “stören”.
