You do get it, right??You do get the joke, right?? The joke is that they're saying that it was a choice between English and German and they chose English. But then they decide to go through and make some changes. At the end, it's like they're writing in German and a speaker would sound German, but they're speaking English. Just wanted to make sure you understood it. :)
