The story of the nurse of the passage of evil

Why would the trade winds at 60 km / h and the office air at 2 km / h be diabolical? (Photo: iStock)

German immigration in Switzerland is in itself a success, we think of the teachers of the EPF, the social professions and nurses, the service stations and the box office of 39; Ikea. Of course, there are unpleasant side effects: "Posche" is increasingly called "ichaufe", and other Swabianisms spread via TV commercials, and dialect words are slowly being replaced. I will attach for the moment when I hear a Bernese Oberland say "delicious" for the first time, and join the UDC for the moment.

Without immigration from the Germans, you would have been spared even more (including me, present in the Promised Land since 1962). We know that nothing is less than preparation for the assimilation of Germans. The immigrant from Sri Lanka knows after three days that we like to emphasize everything on the first syllable, for example the pronunciation of the beloved SBB: ESSbb! German even after 30 years in sbBE Switzerland says what bothers.

passage in memory of the Germans?

So I do not consider it for ruled out that the passage L & # 39; Germany came to Switzerland. I do not remember that it was a problem or a subject in the 60s and 70s. If you look at all the results of air currents and air currents in Idiotikon, it quickly becomes clear that there was wind in front of the door and not in the house – sometime.

At one point there must have been enough Germans in Switzerland. Switzerland has become a problem. In Germany, it has always been a terrible and absurd obsession. People who have no heat problem and at the same time north-east at 60 km / h on the beach of Fuerteventura, the terrible diseases disappear as soon as an impressive 2 km / h blows into a office of one Fensterli on the other

He does not need to cook in his own juice

What do not you hear all that air currents sneaky are supposed to do, stiff neck, flu and worse? As a result, in summers like this, many people stink completely foolish in their own juice, instead of enjoying the blessings of the wind, which in the German language and only there is the vile, sneaky wake.

Doing all right, the heat that will come back next week (10 day trend, just get home) will not hurt you.

Anyone could buy a fan now. Many Grosis and Ättis would still live in Switzerland, would give children and grandchildren a fan. With a decent propeller, blowing in the wind, you can withstand almost any temperature. But in general rampant ignorance, just about everything goes wrong in the heat, which could provide relief. And of course, the unscientific superstition is immortalized on the internet dozens of times, so the project fighters can always make sure that we can only lead a meaningful life when the air is permanent.

What to do in the heat

This is especially true for children and the elderly:

1. Turn on the air conditioner if available. Air conditioning maintained in Switzerland does not make you sick. All the concerns about air conditioners are fun superstitions.
2. Buy a fan or more. Let them go. Nothing happens. Ceiling fans can be unhealthy only at low ceilings.
3. If you have windows in both directions, always open them when you are at home. Enjoy the pleasant wind. Do not invite the Germans until the autumn.
4. It's a dark superstition that you should close the windows as soon as it's warmer outside than inside. They produce so much moisture and carbon dioxide in the stagnant air that everything is better than the misery that they produce with their windows closed.
5. If you have all the windows in one direction and you head south, you are lost. Even open windows provide little, as there is hardly any exchange of air except when forced. Provide windows with mosquito nets and open them wide, direct the window fans into the room at night, just put them in front of your face during the day.

Enjoy the summer

If you meet Germans threatening to break through, because this superstition threatens the health of many people in our country. If you are in hot vacation areas, where people like to squirm and maybe sweat people to do things outside, ask people if they have any of the discomforts which are attributed to the passage everywhere. Ask yourself why you have always loved the sea breeze that arrives on the beach in the late morning.

And if you have a lot of fans at home or windows through the windows, enjoy the summer. And last but not least: toddlers only need one layer and 30 degree sunscreen, nothing else. Please refrain from plugs and anything that heats up. And again, even though the posters always say something about dogs: never leave a child in the car for a short time in the summer. Never. Just never. Never.
