Funktionslust
Filed under: Deserving - November 29, 2007 @ 6:30 amThe German language can be so much fun. If a person is speaking German, they sound pissed off even if they aren’t. An old woman can be smiling and speaking German to you, and it sounds like, “Fuck you and the fucking Rottweiler cur you rode in on.” And my god if they’re shouting in German, well, that’s the best way to shout. Do you think Hitler could have been so heinous had he been French or Spanish? I think not.
One of the best German films I’ve seen lately was Aimee & Jaguar (alternate title: Dykes & The Nazis Who Hate Them). The movie tells the story of a blonde! woman who falls in love with a Jewish woman. The BEST part of the movie is when the lesbians throw a scandalous little soiree and the blonde woman’s Nazi soldier husband comes home and finds her in bed with a hot Jewish woman. HAHAHAHAHA classic. Of course, you can imagine how the movie ends. I’ll give you a clue - it starts with a tra and ends with a gic.
I have two favorite German words. I’ve known about the word schadenfreude for a long time - taking pleasure in another person’s suffering. An example of this is when Dick Cheney shot that guy while quail hunting. Or when Anna Nicole Smith died - the whole country was masturbating furiously throughout that whole fiasco.
My new favorite German word is funktionslust - the pleasure and satisfaction one derives from doing what one is good at. You know, like blow jobs. What gives you funktionslust?
(Meanwhile, I STILL haven’t seen my Hitler movie…)

Oh my! You hadn’t seen this film until now??? It is a beautiful film. I couldn’t bear to watch it again, because of the very tragic ending, but it is one every film lover and lesbian supporter/lover should see once.

Ooooh! Well, eating pussy has to be at the top of that list. My second place sounds boring, but honestly I’d have to say pancakes. It’s one of those things people really appreciate more in the moment.

Is it Train Magic? I love movies that end in Train Magic! “Aimee & Jaguar”: it’s ‘Polar Express’ for German Lesbians!
I get a lot of funktionslust from the videos I make. Also, what Jesse said. Pancakes are good.

As always a very intresting post. I have thought that as well about the German language. I also remember the speech from the 2nd Matrix movie about the french language.

I fucking love pancakes. Now I’m imagining eating cock shaped pancakes or putting pure maple syrup on a cock and licking it off or a big German woman making me pancakes.
