I'm a native german speaker from Austria, grown up in Styria and later moved to Vienna. And if you now tell me that I don't speak german...than you're most likely right.

comment “Scheiße ist Bargeld”
Are you referring to Dagobert Duck? If yes, I'd suggest to use his english name while speaking english, Scrooge McDuck, to avoid confusion.

comment How to write an ß?
Maybe it's worth noting that ß does not have an uppercase form. Instead it's substituted with SZ. Edit: Whoops, obviously I'm not up-to-date about that.

@Sean: True, it's not a polite form, maybe I should point this clearly out.

comment Polite alternatives to “Grüß Gott”?
I disagree that Guten Tag is not an option. The first thing I got told when I started out at a Hotline was that we should drop that greeting and use Guten Morgen/Tag/Abend instead. This is of course of personal taste, but I find it more offending if I use such a greeting without believing in the words, then to use something different.

comment What is the German equivalent of “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”?
@Twelve47: It also lacks ö ä ü if you mean that. But it is used most of the time, for better/more complete examples see sl0815 answer.
