Iā€™m not sure that is the best Wittgenstein translation.
I usually sing it to the tune of good king Wenceslas to remember

If somebody yelled at me like that, I might just line up too.

Given that the bare-chested Russian duck herder is herded by a bare-chested Russian bare-chested Russian herder it seems safe to assume that an arbitrarily recursive matryoshka doll of autoparodically hypermasculine command will break out at any momentā€¦

Now I know, the opposite of ā€œlike herding catsā€ is ā€œlike herding ducksā€.

Thatā€™s an army, not a flock. Heā€™s clearly preparing to fight Obama with 50 duck-sized ducks.

Just being nit-picky here, but that Russian is not bare-chested. Heā€™s wearing a light coloured vest over long-sleeved black shirt.

On a different thought, I wonder how he is as a baby-sitter ā€¦ :smiley:

Can anyone offer some backstory or context? Mainstay farming tasks or peripheral fun?

Interesting how quickly they all hustled to get in line before marching in. I wonder how many ducks he had to ā€˜make an example ofā€™ before the others learned that quick hustle.

Why not sing it in German?

Fucking ducks. How do they work?
