That was back when I was young and I could actually hold it in one hand.

And I saw those women in person and I have no idea how they do that. They must lift weights!

Need to Photoshop Trump's glass for a toddler's sippy cup. Then it would be perfect.

But then I can't blame Trump for not drinking beer... the running joke is that the translation for "Beer" in American translates to "piss" in English... The Germans know how to make good beer.

Pro tip for all you fine folks wanting to go to Germany: don’t order a Mass, which is a liter beer like Chancellor Merkel is having. Order “ein kleine Bier und ein grosse Bier” (a small beer and a large beer) It takes a really long time to pour a liter beer. If you order a little beer and a big one, you’ll be finished with the little beer by the time the big one is ready.

3 liter mug and not spill any is to put y0ur thumb around the handle and lift with elbow supporting the mug.
Also, the German equivalent of Bud has less alcohol than the French equivalent and the German tourist order a pint or a liter like at home and get snickered!
