The idiom works for any language, he's just looking at a metaphor literally rather than figuratively, which is still funny, just not really based on him being German.
Madison Brunk Of course, that's why their idioms. It's like saying childrens' folktales are generally _really_ messed up. Yeah, they are, but that's exactly because of what they are meant to be for. The Germans have their own idioms, one of them being "Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof" I understand only train station. It's used to say that someone can't keep track or pay attention because they're 'somewhere else' in their head. Basically. I agree, idioms are weird.
iVulgarThrust That's so interesting! I learned American Sign Language in high school and learned some idioms there too. (that through the years I've managed to forget)
Madison Brunk Yep, I love the cultural value of languages :D, really reflects the mindset of the people speaking it, pretty awesome stuff for sure, especially from a non-judgemental mindset, things get interesting quickly.
I'm brazilian and the city i was born, was where Mr. Ziegfried Fischer (do some "googles") Stablished the first gymnastics training center in Brazil. After, the training center became the first German Club in Brazil (SOGIPA - "googles"), and then the neighbourhood had german schools, started celebrating Oktoberfest and other German festivals. I've had some training with Mr. Ziegfried and his 2 sons, I had many German athletes staying in my house for training camps German culture has always been a part of my life. I wouldn't say I celebrate them like if it is carnaval in Brazil, but I do celebrate them as a part of my sports club tradition. Keep it up Flula, you're very amazing!
I think you should solve this by having a sword fight with Brad, who is armed with only a pen, while you have a sword. Then we shall finally know the true mightiest! -Nathan
Still better English than modern young people especially those that subscribe to the rap culture. And absolutely hilarious at the same time. I love this shit. I know I’m late to the party but your post.
LOLOLOL The visual on that one went in so many weird, mostly non-sexy, directions, I even shocked myself. Thanks for the good laugh with your Noodle Bra Rorscach Test.
"Sorry for morbidity." There Flugenhaffen is showing how much he really does know about English. Morbidity? Not a word that at least 95% of English speakers know.
He is referring to the metaphor which implies that going about something in correct means of jurisdiction and protest can be more effective than submitting to physical violence to prove a point.
Pasta Man would definitely one fearsome character in Mortal Kombat with his rigatonni knife. Swinging it around would definitely scare somebody already when it sings Shing Sung Shang Tsung.
Flula, your videos on English idioms are excellent examples of taking things literally! They remind me of when my kids were little and they just didn't get what people were saying. English is stupid sometimes. Keep up the great work.
You slice presidents head off. France did that, king wrote laws people chopped his head off at the guillotine. Blade is always mightier. King George wrote laws taxing America colonies, we rose up in violence and through bloodshed we changed everything. Franklin said the tree of liberty and freedom must be watered with the blood of patriots or else tyranny will take hold. He also said a nation needs a revolution every 200 years or the government will grow too strong. We are at 250 years now, we are 50 years past due for a bloody coup de tat in america. We should hang the politicians, ban the 2 party system and reelect new government based strictly on constitution
qoaa The blade is usually only a quick fix compared to the pen. _"strictly on constitution"_ Sure, as long as we're not enshrining the Constitution itself (as far too many seem to want to do these days), and we are actually willing to do as the Founding Fathers intended by reviewing it regularly and amending it properly as found to be necessary to keep it current and fully relevant in dealing with issues between the people and the governing bodies intended to serve and represent them.
Tis true, for nations are not forged and lost with pens, only with metal and blood. If the day comes where no man has to kill another, then the pen will have proven it's worth.
"it's floppy, it's floppy, it's al dente, it taste tasty, it vill not scare ze people it shall make zem hungry, yes of course, if your sword is made of noodle" why am i so dirty minded...
If there are any other hetalians who watch these, please tell me that I'm not alone in thinking that Italy would try to use a noodle sword. Then Germany would be on the side like "why do I even try?"
my favourite part of all of these videos is waiting for the "What?"
Same
I am knowing zero Pens that are more mighty than the Swords I am knowing.
oh f|u|a if you stick pen in booty make shore to de- ink it first! #boom
Flula your awesome!!!!
Trust a German to resort to violence (sarcasm ;) )
The word KNOW can't be present continue....Its state verb sword boy.
***** Die Feder ist mächtiger als das Schwert
He is anger!
This is a silly
@@KingAlpha4108 This is a silly and danger
"I hate you. You smell bad. And you shall lose this battle!" LMAO!!! Definitely using this!!
"sorry for getting morbid"
"And all the items that were attached to your torso are flopping on the ground like fishes"
Never bring a pen to a sword fight
A Spaghetti Sword, Rigatoni Rapier, A Cannelloni Cleaver, Noodle kNIFE, Lasagna Lightsaber, Fusilli Falcon! Shall I go on??
Ditalini Dagger, Campanelle Cutlass, Linguine Longsword, Stelle Sabre, Bucatini Bayonet! I could say more.
I love in every video, "Ehh.....what?"
I don't know why but even though I know it's coming I completely lose it every time he says that.
Noodle sword
i always love the moment where the anecdote ends and he starts complaining about the idiom
Thats so German xD
"If you have pasta sword we have problem."
"do you have a rigatoni knife???"
I always love the longgggg pause followed by '.....what?' It makes me laugh every time.
you're incredibly quotable.
Words of wisdom from everyone's favorite German friend, Flula.
Sometimes I really do forget how awfully weird our idioms are.
The idiom works for any language, he's just looking at a metaphor literally rather than figuratively, which is still funny, just not really based on him being German.
But still, in general, idioms sound weird to us initially but we become desensitized to it. This sort of reverses those effects.
Madison Brunk Of course, that's why their idioms. It's like saying childrens' folktales are generally _really_ messed up. Yeah, they are, but that's exactly because of what they are meant to be for.

Of all of the videos you do Flula, these are my absolute favourites! Don't ever stop x

I'm imagining it being strapless and like one think noodle wrapped around my boobs
*thick
"Who his making your sword?" 😂🤣💀
I'm dead I can't even I just cant....XD
"Sorry for morbidity."
There Flugenhaffen is showing how much he really does know about English.
Morbidity? Not a word that at least 95% of English speakers know.
Lol, that's a morbid thought.
LOL! I love Flula and his lack of knowledge for the English language
"flopping on the floor like fishes"
That doesn't sound right to me but I don't know enough about amputation to disprove it.
A cannolli sword, it's al dente!
"It's floppy it's floppy it's tasty"
The way he says noodle makes me tingle.
"If you haff a pasta sword....vee haff problem."
That's what she said.
🤣🤣🤣
Love love flula
I love you Flula
"all the items attached to your torso are flopping on the floor like fishes" is hilarious lmao

Diamond crafted sword with V Sharpness, IV Knockback, and III Unbreakable. Bring it pens!

He is referring to the metaphor which implies that going about something in correct means of jurisdiction and protest can be more effective than submitting to physical violence to prove a point.
LOL... you crack me up in just about every video. Pasta swords, unite!
"It's Al dente." XD I don't know why but that made me laugh
Pasta Man would definitely one fearsome character in Mortal Kombat with his rigatonni knife. Swinging it around would definitely scare somebody already when it sings Shing Sung Shang Tsung.

A Storm of Pens, by George R. R. Martin.
Flula is the funniest youtuber ever.

L i g a t o n i s w o r d
I enjoyed that. Very,very funny.

Nothing is mightyer than you, Flula.
Love you Flula ❤️😄👍
Where can I buy these rigatoni swords??? I am interested (and a little hungry too).
Oh, but what about a paper cut from that letter.......
I lost it when he said “sing song shang shong”
I like how you say Brad! :D
Omg, "who's making your swords"
The president could sign a law that says all swords are illegal... what now swordsman?
You slice presidents head off.
France did that, king wrote laws people chopped his head off at the guillotine.
Blade is always mightier.

Your my favorite German!!!

Oh my god, you are so funny and so cute!
Tis true, for nations are not forged and lost with pens, only with metal and blood. If the day comes where no man has to kill another, then the pen will have proven it's worth.
The pen is mightier then the sword if the sword is very blunt and the pen is very sharp.
-Terry Pratchet
hahahahahaha!!! i fuckin' love this guy...
I like how he misspells English words.
the pen is mightier but only if you hold a sword
Hilarious!! Can't remember the last time I laughed so hard! Still the pen in ur botty hahahah

Who is making your sword? Do you have a rigatoni knife?
The pen is more mighty than a sword. You can write a real assassin to do the job for you. :)
Eeehh, wat?
This means words are more powerful than violence
ian hayes that is true😂
