genfinch? whassat?
That´s a person of course, or rather a nickname for one. The name was made out of "finch", which is the translation of my surname, Fink, and "gen" which is for General. I am the General of my own private army, you know. It was founded back in ´93 or ´94 or so after watching "A Few Good Men" a great big number of times too often. It currently has four members. And has always had. We must be doing something wrong.I was born and raised in the most wonderful part of Germany, the Rhineland. But due to some terrible mistake of mine (choosing to study in Göttingen) I have been transplanted out of my native country into the (relative) North of Germany. What shocked me most at the beginning is that they don´t have a dialect here. Or rather their dialect has been awarded the title of "High German" some 150 years ago, I think. And so they all speak High German and that´s as good as having no dialect. No dialect makes people from Rhineland go crazy.
I study English and Chemistry, vaguely aiming at becoming a teacher. I´ll be revenged for those thirteen horrible years!
That´s about it from me, you see, I´m mean, vengeful, schadenfroh and, if you must know, my nails are as dark as my soul.
