"Wrong Initial Reaction". When someone looks good from far away, and the closer he or she gets, the more hideous he or she gets.
Manuel - "Man, that chica looks hot"
Raul - "WIR, you dork, she aint hot...she's a dog!"

Wir Suchen Dich
German word which means "we're looking for you"
Usually used in job applications in Germany, the word has similar connotation to the English term "We're Suckin' Dick" and has been used in various memes.
Notable ones is the one located outside a Mcdonald's store in Germany with a lady face and the 3 words written below it. "Wir suchen DICH"
"Sie sind das Essen und wir sind die Jäger" (please notice the Umlaut) is the catch phrase of the intro music of the famous Anime Attack on Titan.
As with many German lyrics in Japanese pop culture, the translation is not quite right.
Apparently, what the creators wanted to express is "they are the prey and we are the hunters". However, "Essen" literally translates to "food" and would never be used by a native speaker in this context. A better German word would be "Beute".
A German phrase from the anime Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin. It is said at the beginning of the anime's theme song, and has become popular.
It translates to: They are the food (prey) and we are the hunters.
You are the prey = Du bist (singular) or Ihr seid (pl "y'all are) das Essen (undefined/non-specific/ "meal," may be incorrectly used in this case).
Using 'Sie' as 'Du' is very very very formal and would never be used here and 'prey' would be 'die Beute' and can not be replaced by 'Essen'. Come on, get it right at least!
