This English sentence keeps being used by colleagues of mine at work (in emails) and I've no idea why it's used and if they realize that it doesn't make any kind of sense in English. Is this a widespread thing? Am I missing some cultural reference?

If your colleagues write that in English, what makes you think Germans do that? – puck Oct 13 '20 at 04:25

@puck: the colleagues seem to be German, see the headline. – HalvarF Oct 13 '20 at 09:03

Never heard of it before, but after googling it, it seems to be related to Michael Wendler, a German singer, songwriter and reality show participant.
