Der beste Platz für Politiker ist das Wahlplakat. Dort ist er tragbar, geräuschlos und leicht zu entfernen.

The best place for politicians is the election poster. There they are portable, silent and easy to remove.

I prepared a silly little christmas card for my family this year.

Loriot's "Weihnachten bei den Hoppenstedts" ("Christmas with the Hoppenstedts") is a German comedy cult classic, they literally play this episode each and every year on christmas and every German person seems to know it. The skit follows the family Hoppenstedt, who try their best to have a somehow peaceful christmas, together with the slightly crazy grandpa (played by Loriot himself). It's actually pretty difficult to explain this to people, who've never seen it, now that i think about it... But yeah... the thing in the front of this piece is a nuclear power plant model, Dickie (the kid) gets as a christmas present and it is literally the funniest shit ever.
