Happy Birthday!

K6ka, you are probably not young anymore. Happy birthday :D TonyBallioni (talk) 02:20, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I am still quite young. At least, I certainly do feel young. Part of me feels like it's still in high school. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 02:23, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The workforce and alcohol will help with that. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:35, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You sure about this one? A quick look might make one think it's penis vandalism or similar, but his edits appear to be at worst unnecessary. Correcting "bin men" to "garbage men" isn't vandalism; a lot of English speakers will never have heard the term "bin man", even though it's the UK English form of the expression. And the song "Jan Pillemann Otze" really is a penis song: "My Pillemann is not insanely long, but it is extremely thin!" (Not sure where the "Unt" comes in.) --jpgordon𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇 15:46, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jpgordon: I'm no German speaker, but you seem to be right: it's not vandalism and seems to be an attempt at correcting the translations on the page. I was trusting CLCStudent on this one, but looks like he was thrown off by this as well. Feel free to unblock. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 15:52, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
