It Needs the Umlaut

Its like soccer in every way except... The whole point of the game is to kick the ball over the fence.

and...

The Squiggle Guard sits on the fence with a rapier and tries to stop the ball from getting kicked over the fence.

All the while the Squiggle Guard tries to stab the Squiggler (whom is without clothes). The Squiggler has a single coin somewhere beneath his or her skin and must try to get the Squiggle Guard to stab his coin.

On the other side of the fence the Squiggle Monkey waits to try and catch the ball.. but for the entire game the Squiggle Monkey has to ride a unicycle and scream "SHAKESPEARE!!" as loud as they can.

The game ends every forth Tuesday.

Dot all the Umlauts

The German version of "Dot all the I's and cross all the T's." To make sure something is done in the proper manner, without even a minor or technical error.

During John Demjanjuk's trial for his infamous WWII-era war crimes, the prosecuting attorney had to make sure to dot all the umlauts in every motion he made before the court.

t with an umlaut

To take one's own road; to be unique; Someone with an addiction to David's Tea; Someone whose attitude is "don't mess with me. I have an umlaut!"

Yes I like that fancy overly expensive tea, I'm t with an umlaut!
