Verpeilen - Easy German 91

Muriel have you ever actually been completely plastered Plastered How do you even define being plastered That's a question I'd say others would claim yes I've been quite out of it on more than one occasion But I think these are just life's little surprises you can't anticipate and they end up creating odd situations And that’s what puts you in a situation where things run differently or are new or who knows what And that's just how it is—others see it as ridiculous I see it very clearly as something that well circumstances inevitably bring about Hello viewers we're back with Easy German today With us is the wonderful Muriel who has come from Bremen Today let's ask the people of Berlin what's ridiculous We haven't revealed it yet—try figuring it out for yourself Muriel here's your microphone Let's get started Okay thanks Let's do this I want to know from you what the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you is Oh my God where do I even begin No idea Okay this week I missed my exam Wow Okay how could someone possibly miss their exam Yeah overslept My life is full of messed-up things So one thing that immediately comes to mind I had drunk quite a lot earlier was pretty dehydrated and my lips started to burn And they were totally wrecked Then I spent hours asking people if they had a Labello And were celebrating and it was dark Then sometime around four in the morning a friend showed up Do you have a Lip Balm Yes today I came here to Berlin I talked with a girl and mostly just kept an eye on her suitcase And I had a small suitcase with me It had wheels and it just rolled backward I didn’t notice at all And then suddenly announcement came saying the police had a call-out here The train is delayed by a quarter of an hour And they were already about to call in a bomb disposal unit because of my bag And I didn’t even notice Then eventually a cop asks me something like " Is that your bag " I say "No mine's right here " And then well yes please leave the carriage now Because the clearance team is coming right away That was said everywhere even in Berlin and so on The delay was his fault It was my fault And I was in Berlin for the last time in 2008 Thanks to that I arrived late for the interview It's on me—I showered in my bra Was alcohol involved No I was just overworked Just quickly I'd like to know from you all the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you Oh no I don't think I'm cut out for this Then she gave it to me and I rubbed it in thoroughly just like when you've been massaging it in for a long long time really well Oh that's wonderful—I can picture it so clearly And I thought so lovely so beautiful And then along comes a friend and does something like that I didn't think anything else of it and just kept working together chatting and sharing everything When I left the security staff was also very friendly toward me I rode my bike to school on the first day then went inside and crashed into a wall ending up lying on the ground for a moment The weirdest thing that's ever happened to me Hey you caught me after an incredibly tough workday I can't think straight at all The better as it practically comes with the word already attached What's the most ridiculous thing that's ever happened to you We don't know what's off-limits we're not Germans So We have a hunch about what it might be Okay what's the hunch It's something crazy or something like that It's exactly utterly crazy yes that would be one interpretation—or simply confused Confused On my way home they all smile at me so kindly And when I look in the mirror everyone is blazing red I was absolutely red-faced I really had a lovely clown mouth So because I’d also really gone all out I thought you couldn't see the Fettmund in the dark now If that's a Fettmund you can't see it in the dark now anyway so it's not such a big deal That was perfectly fine I thought it was actually quite funny up to that point The next morning not so much I can't think of anything right now Nothing at all not even dozing off somewhere crashing into the wall on the bike forgetting your underwear Not at all Maybe nothing ever goes wrong for you The next morning I tried to get it to work It didn't A 24-hour lipstick Yeah something like from H&M Oh my god Then I called my girlfriend Selina and said what kind of stuff did you give me Yeah I've got it on too and can't get it off anymore Yeah but you've got it on your lips Not all over your face basically Yeah Cool Just know what the weirdest thing that's ever happened to you is Oh my god And ready set go No idea No idea I think that's the dumbest thing right now The dumbest thing I've ever done I think I've actually had it once I'm not sure if it's the most ridiculous thing but it's definitely near the top of the list Spent about 10 minutes looking for my sunglasses even though they were already on my nose And it was sunglasses so it was dark but I didn’t get it Happens to you too right Lately not much has been happening because I've been using fewer drugs and less alcohol and no drugs at all Nothing strange ever happens to me Can't you remember the rest Probably not no Good that's also pretty messed up Thanks Ciao That's the most messed-up thing that's ever happened to me Is that a compliment No she's got jet lag Jet lag Really And now she's going out straight away Yeah I gotta wash that down with a cola first Okay Did anything happen to you Since you've got jet lag Life And the two of them We keep flashing each other Oh I regularly log myself out You regularly log yourself out from your own house Exactly Where's the key It' s on the inside door Okay What else has happened to you then Then let's stick with excluding it I left my key inside and had to climb up to the window on the third floor just to find it And he was just outside the door You're at the house wall Oh that 's your train Sorry Anyway Thank you Ciao So Cari that's the end of Easy German Right And you wanted to tell us something else Yes exactly I'd like to ask our viewers You've now gotten a bit of an idea of what it means to be hungover To verpeilen is kind of like to mess up in English But it's also a bit like when you're confused and things happen around you because you're not fully focused Or bad luck that's just how it is It could also be bad luck And now we want to know from you: what's the weirdest story you've ever experienced Write them in the comments and I'll read out the funniest ones and comment on them in German I'm really looking forward to it Maybe even better stories will come along than the suitcase story We're definitely looking forward to it and so am I Very much so It was a lot of fun tonight Thank you Muri Thanks for watching and see you next week on Easy German Easy German Bye It actually carries many different meanings in English So for one "fahren" can mean to drive as in driving a car But it can also mean to ride as in ein Fahrrad fahren to ride a bike And it can mean to go like to go by train or to go by bus And many others such as skiing To ski also uses fahren That was your quick language tip for today I wish you all the best in learning German Until next time goodbye
