The Messerschmitt Bf 109(or Me 109) was a WW2 single engined fighter designed by Willy Messerschmitt and built mainly by Bayerische Flugzeugwerke. It was widely considered the Luftwaffe equivalent to the RAF Spitfire. Although widely derided nowadays as being difficult to fly, poor performing, and aerodynamically unrefined; the Me 109 was still the preferred mount of most of Germany's aces, including Erich Hartmann -the highest scoring ace of all time, with 352 kills. The 109 was first used in the Spanish civil war and served throughout all of WW2, with derivatives being built postwar in Spain and Czechoslovakia. With roughly 33,000 of the countless versions built, the Me 109 was one of the most produced aircraft of all time.
Don't know what a Messerschmitt bf109 looks like? Go watch the movie "Battle of Britain," The bad guys are flying spanish-built versions of the 109. The planes in the movie however, have Rolls-Royce instead of Daimler(Mercedes)engines, and so have pointier noses.
The first fighters of the Israeli Air Force were czech-built Messerschmitts.
A majestic bearded creature found in the inner streets of East Hampton. Notorious for making a mean cup of coffee and being a simple kind of man, people from all corners of the world gather to catch a glimpse of this glorious manwhore.
"I saw Messerschmidt driving down the street the other day, followed by a pack of unicorns and an army of angels leading the way."
The messerschmitt was the german primary fighter of WW2. It was rubbish compared to the RAF Spitfire.
R.J.Mitchell is the best even though he shouldn't have smoked...he died of cancer...sniff...
While our lifespan is the number of years we will live, our healthspan is the number of healthy years we will have and our sexspan is is the number of years we will continue to be healthy enough to continue having an active sex life.
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
