It's honestly impressive how low Uwe Boll can go.

Fun Fact:

A northern German youth-slang word for "Bro" is "Digga", which is a friendly way to say "Fatty", from "Dicker - dick" (lit.: Fatty, fat/thick), but with the implication of being very dear friends, "dicke Freunde" (lit.: thick friends) just has the meaning "close friends" with no implication of being fat and "dick miteinander sein" (lit.: being thick together) is also an expression of closeness, not of weight.

Interestingly, Digga is being used in exactly the same way as black people in the US use the soft n-word with each other. "Mein Digga!" (lit: my thicky) is 1:1 analogous to "My n-word!". It's common for tourists to do a double take when they hear some very German and very white youths yell at one another "Ey Digga!" and many German rappers definitely use it as a stand in for the soft n-word, but It's use and etymology is rooted in the old dock workers culture of Hamburg and has absolutely nothing to do with the n-word.
