What are fishersaxons?
To fish is angeln, Anglo Saxon is angelsachsen, and German memes get passed through the translation process a little too much
I'm still trying to figure this out too. Search engines are no help.
Anglo Saxon => Angelsachsen => Ageln (to fish) + Sachsen (Saxons) => Fishersaxons
Okay, that's pretty funny. Doesn't German have the verb "fischen"? At least in English, angling is a specific type of fishing with a hook and line (as opposed to e.g. spears or nets).
Jup, fischen is hunting for fish in general and angeln is fishing with a fishing rod.
