This just proves to me more and more that my business partners were/are prudes. We started a bratwurst stand. I wanted our slogan to be "We just want our sausage in your mouth." They voted it down because it was "too risqué."
Here in Germany we had an ad for a "Tiefbauunternehmen" / "civil engineering company".
The German name translates to "deep building company". Their slogan: "Experten für untenrum" / "professionals for the parts down below".
I hope the translation works
The translation works. Dick jokes are dick jokes.
not necessarily a dick joke in English; sounds like they could handle whatever youve got and whatever you want accomplished with it.
Fair enough
if its only a dick joke in German, they come off as way more competent in English.
I dunno, don't speak German
When I was in high school, the girls' running team made shirts that said, "Fast girls have good times." It's been more than twenty years, and I still think about how funny that double-entendre is.
So, yeah, you would've sold a lot more weiners.
That's an awesome slogan. Fu- I mean "screw" prudes.
Wasn't it hooters that was later called butt fuckers in Idiocracy? I expect better from all of you
The scene was for the burger chain Fudruckers where they kept misspelling the name
