Data is Beautiful

I've been learning German and I call it the surprise ending language because everything is like that. In complex phrases, you often leave the primary verb until the very last word. So you might get something like:

I'd like to, with your daughter and a duck, this coming weekend, at the park, if it's not raining, with our bicycles, go for a ride.

The concept really is bullshit, and that's coming from a German. For certain kinds of triple digit numbers people sometimes resort to saying the single digits in a row ("drei fünf neun" instead of dreiundertneunundfünfzig). Less misunderstandings, and faster.
