In germany we have a saying "der Blitz soll dich beim scheissen treffen", which roughly translates to "may lighting strike you while you're on the shitter".

[-] qyron@lemmy.pt 12 points 1 year ago

That's a very original way to wish for someone's demise.

[-] Lordbaum@mander.xyz 9 points 1 year ago

Where in Germany? I never have heard of this saying

[-] Sailing7@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago

Northern Bavaria, near border to Hessen reporting in. I know this sentence.

[-] MrBakedBeansOnToast@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Hessen confirms

[-] a_ho@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You can definitely hear that one in Bavaria. I just assumed that it's widely known.

[-] Huschke@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Austrian here. I also know that one.

Angry upvote you brilliant bastard!

[-] candyman337@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 year ago

How does something like that even happen

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 31 points 1 year ago

Well first you take a picture of lightning hitting a building. Then you put it next to a picture of an exploded toilet.

[-] ItDoBeHowItDoBe@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

The text is referencing the toilet, so at least there could be something connected there.

这不马桶- this is not a toilet. 干了什么- what did you do.

[-] makkurokurosuke@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

这个马桶 this toilet 干了什么 what did it do

[-] ItDoBeHowItDoBe@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Someone else pointed out that I misread 个 as 不。 my darn dyslexia had me confidently reading the charecter and adding a whole stroke.

[-] makkurokurosuke@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

No biggie, chinese is hard as hell. You take a week off studying and there goes 100 characters from your memory. I didn’t want to sound rude, my level of Chinese is being able to read these characters

Well... it doesn't. This is clearly mega fake.

I suspect shenanigans. Possibly someone detonated something in the dunny, resulting in the marks seen.

[-] relevant_ace@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Zeus fucking a toilet

[-] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago

Someone took an ungodly shit.

[-] adeoxymus@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Why does the toilet look like video game toilet?

[-] dabaldeagul@feddit.nl 31 points 1 year ago

Because video game toilets were inspired by real life toilets

[-] Boeman@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Are you sure real life toilets weren't inspired by video game toileta?

My translation with mostly forgotten mandarin schooling. Maybe it will help to show that the picks are connected.

这不马桶。-this is not a toilet. 干了什么- what did you do?

[-] chibimagic@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

The first line is “这个马桶” or “this toilet” Second line is “what did it do”

[-] ItDoBeHowItDoBe@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

That makes so much more sense now that I realize it was 个 and nkt 不。the grammar was not making sense but i shrugged it off as text speach. Being dyslexic never helped me with the reading portion of Chinese. I would confidently read characters and write the ones that were almost the same, but differed in one or two strokes or a radical.

I refuse to believe that, that exact lightning was captured

[-] LazaroFilm@artemis.camp 4 points 1 year ago

Shitters clogged. — lightning.

[-] downpunxx@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

too much iron in their diet obvs

[-] TheBlue22@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Do they not have lighting rods in China??? Such a simple way to avoid this, someone could have died

[-] davemate@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They do but the occupant clearly has eaten a lot of broccoli

[-] GeoGio7@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Bathroom next to a window?

[-] Selmafudd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Isn't this like a requirement in most places with any sort of building code?

[-] panchzila@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

In apartment buildings you can have an extractor, not necessarily next to a window, at least where I'm from.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Code over here is either one of them, ideally both.
