Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.
In Polish we've got "gdzie psy dupami szczekają" or where dogs bark with their assess.
Huh, so in Southern Germany we like to reference Buxtehude as a place that's really far away and probably doesn't exist (even though it is a very real city near Hamburg). ^1
And I just learned that there's also a saying about Buxtehude, that it's the place where dogs bark with their tails. ^2
Apparently, they refer to bells as dogs in their local dialect.
I did also randomly find a reference to Buxtehude being where dogs bark with their ass, in a German text. ^3
So, maybe you guys also just dump on Buxtehude like we do. 🙃
