::That's what I think: He's taken "Gedankenexperiment", which sounds funny in English, and taken the "Gedanken" part and reduplicated it to match the sound of "badonkadonk", without worrying about whether it makes sense in German. --[[Special:Contributions/196.35.92.54|196.35.92.54]] 12:22, 3 July 2013 (UTC) | ::That's what I think: He's taken "Gedankenexperiment", which sounds funny in English, and taken the "Gedanken" part and reduplicated it to match the sound of "badonkadonk", without worrying about whether it makes sense in German. --[[Special:Contributions/196.35.92.54|196.35.92.54]] 12:22, 3 July 2013 (UTC) | ||
