Not a good joke. It’s an annoying stereotype, although unfortunately some around here make it sort of deserved 😮💨
Yes, there are many Germanic colonies around here, last year we did celebrate 200 years of immigration. Fun fact: the wife of the first Brazilian emperor was an Austrian Habsburg.
My city was founded in 1850, before Germany was even a single country.
While I don’t know when exactly my family came here I know it was way before WW2.
I come from a Germanic colony in Brazil, and while the language has been mostly genocided out, people still sometimes drop random German words in the middle of Portuguese, or mix Portuguese words with some German grammar.
My mother when younger visited Germany and got confused looks from the family hosting her by asking where was the “lixolatte” (“lata de lixo” is the Portuguese for garbage can)
Not remembering childhood is not necessarily an ADHD thing. The puberty hormones tell the brain to prune older memories, IIRC it’s called “childhood amnesia”.
I cut it with a fork against the side of the pot to check if it’s done.
