In my German class today we talked about some slang my professor knows from the Home Country. My favorites were:

das Ghettofrühstück - (noun) "frühstück" means breakfast, so "Ghettofrühstück" means smoking a joint for breakfast because you can't find anything to eat in the morning

aufbitchen - (verb) I was lead to believe that this means to put on your make-up like you're on Jersey Shore.

Slang is one of the most entertaining cultural aspects of language! Share your favorite foreign slang words with me!

Danke! Haben Sie Deutschland besuchen? Ich weiß nur, die Kultur durch die Sprache zu lernen.

Nein! (that sounds evil when I said it but I wasn't even mad)
Aber ich will nach Deutchland reisen!

Ich will überall gehen! Doesn't really matter all that much.

I'd recommend not living in Germany.
Austria appears to be better.

Well I'm basing it of advice I for from other people, but I still wouldn't recommend living there, I would however recommend reading witkenstein.

Wow, that's making Germany seem bad. Well I always thought Austria looked better anyways.
