It was the british that changed german, not the other way around.
Yeah I found this meme bit misleading, but I also got a good chuckle out of it since this is very relevant to me.
I'm not a native English speaker but since I learned English earlier in life than German I still get confused about this in a real/fast conversations.
We have a similar one where the pronounciations are flipped in Norwegian.
Cook(as in chef) = kokk
Cock = kukk
Reminds me of Kiek in de Kök in Tallinn, Estonia
