    There are some here like:

    sitztpinkler
    parkhausblinker
    fickschnitzel (my personal favourite)

    In fact there's a whole load and have a whole title to them, Warmduscher: Warmduscher ABC - Ausdrücke beginnend mit 'A'

    Apple should turn off his eyePhone remotely and send him a Nokia.

    We all know the accomplices are:
    1. Still going to be using exactly the same phones with the same SIMs in them, and,
    2. Are going to still have those phones in their possession.

    Not to mention that he destroyed his and his wife's personal phones: this was his work phone.

    So if he went to the trouble - after the shooting, mind - of destroying those two phones, what's the likelihood there's any important information on the phone he didn't make any attempt to destroy?

    Wife: [staring at phone] Wankpuffin?
    Me: It's a long story. You were watching Downton and..:
    Wife: WANKpuffin?
    Me: [sheepishly] Yes.

    I watched it unfolding at the time, last one still up on Christmas Night in my parents' living room. It was undoubtedly one of Nick Harvey's finest hours, and he's had a few
