You would learn expressions like "Wasserboxer" (say "Vusserboxer") and "Digifant" (say "Digifunt") and others that are not worth mentioning in public. You would also learn certain cultural expressions like "taking a leak" which addresses a ritual where heads get screwed off and on. I begin to like the idea. Maybe participants could get credit towards new coolant or fuel lines? Björn P.S. :)
