    Default Good old Google translate

    Looking to buy some valves from a German Ebay seller and thought I’d run the text through translation, to establish if they’ve been tested

    “Wir waren für sie auf Achse und haben eine große Menge an tollen
    Elektro - Röhren gefunden.
    Radio, Sende, Verstärker und andere Röhren finden sie hier in der Zeitreise
    4 Röhren Valvo, ITT, Tungsram ECC 82
    Für sie geprüft, damit sie nicht die Katze im Sack kaufen!
    Versandgewicht: 500 g”

    Which Google decided meant

    “We were on the move for her and have a great amount of great.

    Electro tubes found. Radio, transmitter, amplifier and other tubes can be found here in the time travel
    4 tubes Valvo, ITT, Tungsram ECC 82

    Tested for them, so they do not buy the cat in a poke!
    Shipping weight: 500 g”

    Ermmmmm ... that’s that cleared up then. Buy it now!!

    Looks like they've been tested to me - you won't be getting a cat in a poke.


    .... 'Die Katze im Sack kaufen' which means to buy the cat in the bag. The purchase was somehow hidden, not completely or honestly revealed. You are not really sure what you bought!

    Difficult to get a cat through customs these days I’d have thought. Even in a bag.

    Apparently 55% of Internet streaming is porn and 32% cat videos.

    Who cares what the remaining 13% consists of!

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”


    ***SMILE, BE HAPPY***

    How would cat porn look as a Venn diagram?
