"Do Prussians count?"

Ja, der Prussians do count. Zey say eins, zvei, drei, vier, funf, und zen zey line up in der single file und march around.

Is mocking Germans still a socially permissable thing to do?

Probably should've gotten the answer to that question before I did it.

Well then, we've got Kant and Marx in the Prussian contingent.

Add Bach, Haydn, Goethe, and Paul Klee to the list.

John F. Kennedy? Does he count?

He was only a jelly doughnut.

Although I've read conflicting accounts as to the truth of that legend.

Klee was Swiss (thought wikipedia says "of German nationality"). They speak a version of German in Switzerland, but I don't think they consider themselves "German."

Sigrid Valdis wasn't a German but she played one on TV.

Was actually a native Californian, of Swedish descent.

Does Heino count, or would one get capped just for mentioning him?\
There's probably a few dozen vintage German punk/hardcore outfits I could mention if I've flipped through my collection.

...when you google "cool germans" Trouser Press is the first two hits. Apparently (gee whiz, whowouldathunk?) there is a dearth of sites celebrating such arcana.
