Dankegeben und der Hahnchenmann!

Yesterday was just another typical Thursday in Berlin. No holiday here. But, I managed to still have a fun Thanksgiving (That's be Dankegeben auf Deutsche). Six of us got together and put together a Thanksgiving feast complete with too much food and three roaster chickens. It was really funny when I went to the Chicken Man who parks on my street every Thursday to buy 3 whole chickens. It went something like this:

"Drei Hahnchen bitte. Komplete." | "Three chickens please. Whole/complete."
"Dreeeiii?!?" | "Threeeeee?!?"
"Ja, drei." | "Yes, three."
"Kompleeeete!?!?" | "Whoooooole?!?"
"Jaaaa..." | "Yesssss..."
"Whoa... okay." | "Whoa... okay."
