~ Es trinkt der Mensch ~
 
In German there are different words for human and animal eating and drinking, but these habits are often reversed as in this example. This mug was made recently, post WWII.
 
Es trinkt der Mensch,
es säuft das Pferd,
doch manchmal ist es umgekehrt.
Humans sip,
horses slurp,
but many times it's reversed.
