The default page setting is 20 per page so we'll reach it the same time as post 40,000 (see stats already posted)

I bet planes will fall from the sky and toasters will gang rape our naive 90s children.

We'll keep her (the J-A-Z) busy here, then she won't leave (of course, that goes against the point of this Thread, but I've got a plan).

So... Does Mädchen really literally mean something along the lines of "little cheese worm", or "cheese wormy"? I have a very strong recollection that it does...

So much for your strong recollection... Mädchen literally means "little maid" or "little maiden", the -lein and -chen are both suffixes that denote the diminutive. That means our little Jazzileinchen is absolutely itsy bitsy teeny weeny cutesy pootsy.

DIE, Threadileinchen!

You are right, -chen and -lein are are diminutives, but not in this case. In modern German, "Mädchen" simply means "Girl". Originally "Mägdchen" (note the "g") was the diminutive of "Mädel".

Haha the first time I played that I spent so much time on the first mission when you get to devour your first guy, instead of doing that and getting the memories i just carried him around the citty and threw him into walls catching him before he landed since apparently you can take as much blunt force trauma and lose as many pints of blood as you want without dieing as long as you don't touch the ground afterwards

Yep, I knew that, I was just giving UPtimist the literal translation.
