Getting rated 9/10

A few of you know I'm taking salsa classes and there is a big male:female imballance. I walked in on wednesday and saw two pretty, athletic, tall blonde girls looking at me.

"Nine," I heard one whisper in a comment about me as I passed.

Feeling pleased with myself, I swaggered over to a friend and told him a girl had just rated me a nine out of ten.

"I don't want to ruin it for you," he said, "but those two girls are on high school exchange from Germany"

Nein means "No" in German!

Riiiiiight . . . well that explains a lot. Such as why I spelt it that way rather than the same way as in the first post.

I'm just sharing the joke around - As the majority of people won't know that!

Yeah, see I was brought up in a generation of WWII movies like Das Boot and cartoons where the Germans always died yelling "Nein . . . ", and the Japs died yelling "Aaiiiieeeee . . . "

Had to wonder what Aaiiiieee means in Japanese. Probably something like "Oh Darn", or perhaps "I wonder what I'll have for dinner tonight?"
