The author's obvious need to place the Schumacher brothers in an Imaginary Order can only be motivated from the tenacious grip of April, 1917 Syndrome, perhaps originating out of his (or hers?) own sexual confusion as a result of being named Robin.

Oh, I don't know.... some of it makes perfect sense.
"The Germans are a race of born fighters. They don't consider that there is any point in living unless they can get themselves into a war....[They] are brutes, beasts, swine born to the trade of murder, and the sooner everyone in the world realises that, the sooner we'll get them under once and for all and have peace again."

Dear Ginger,
I have a very frustrating message for you:
According to the newest findings of British (!) researchers in the field of genetics your Englishmen are 50% Germans. So we share common forefathers and some nasty behaviour. That is easy to see - look at the murderous history of your own nation.
So I conclude you are not an Englishmen but rather an "Insel-Deutscher" (for monolinguals like you: Island-German).
According to the finding of some other British (!) scientists the Germans are a bit smarter than Englishmen. And that is the difference between me and you, my new "inseldeutscher Freund"!
Have a niece day
you Dorftrottel

Ausgezeichnet, Rammjaeger, der Ginger ist doch wirklich ein Dorftrottel, aber das haben wir schon gewusst. Mein Vater sagte immer: "Die Englaender haben Reich und Ruhm verloren, weil Sie zu viel warmes Bier getrunken haben". Ich denke, mein Vater hat wohl Recht gehabt!

Amen, Rammjaeger, thank God for the Saxons! If it wasn't for the Saxons England would't be where it is today. As for bloody history, England has just as bloody as history as anyone in Europe.

Mein Vater and a whole lot of other vaters
Excellently, Ramming Hunter, the Ginger is nevertheless really a village nincompoop, but we already knew that. My father always said: "the Englishmen lost realm and fame, because you drank too much warm beer". I think, my father was probably right!

Well said, my fellow countrymen from the little island next to Germany´s coasts!
You are feeling like a Dorftrottel and in fact you are one!

So, Ginger, hello cousin!
