I am currently on the search for French Delays and French Muggings (translated Retard and Molestation, respectively.)
This got me wondering, are there any other cards I should know about along these lines?

Any card with the word "Hybrid" in it's name will translate to "Bastard" in German.

So in Germany if you are playing cards of the "hybrid" colors you are playing "bastard" cards? Also, do some people in Germany then drive "bastard" cars?
