Uhhh...okay. Obviously I speak zero German, and am having a little trouble coming up with a clear translation..."laber" is not coming up...rest of it seems to say "no friggin' way", or something to that effect, which I think answers the question quite well. :HeadScratch: :-D

'Laber' is a slang term, so Google Translate doesn't know it. It essentially means 'tell,' and the whole sentence is analogous to 'don't talk smack.' :-D

That is hilarious. Bei 'Sheisse,' you probably mean 'Scheiße' (shit) or 'Scheiß' (shitty), but 'Kuchen' means 'cake.' Worst cake ever! :-)

That will probably be like the time I had one of the Hispanic guys at work teaching me Spanish. It's a good way to get your ass kicked if you're in the wrong part of town.
