Rathskeller
A rathskeller is actually a beer hall or restaurant situated in a basement. The word imps got a lot of mileage out of rathskeller. But that made it very hard for me today. I loved every single meaning! The voters had three to choose from, as usual, and Belle Etoile was the chosen one. Thanks for joining us Belle Etoile. Hope you'll be back soon.

Rathskeller is a word usually demonstrated by females. When we are getting together and having a whinge session about the man in our life, we are coming from our rathskeller. It usually involves getting off our chests everything he does that bugs the **** out of us. Once we are done we feel a lot better. Not only because we have unloaded, but there is always someone whose man is a lot worse than yours and then you realise yours isn't so bad after all. It derives from the german word for rat cellar.
Rathskeller is a generic term for that awful,skinny,scrawmny guy with a beard like a nanny goat and a smell like one , a white unwashed rodent like face and mean eyes , wearing a plasticky windcheater who tries to sit next to women in public transport and normally makes a nuisance of himself in a uniquely rathskellerish manner .
While dealing with rathskellers I normally use my elbows and heels in summer and the umbrella as an added accessory during the monsoons .
I like Jude's definition! :)
Rathskeller (variation of "wrath stiller")is really a mediator-the person who steps in between a fight and tries to calm the two down.
The rathskeller stepped into a fistfight at the wrong moment and got punched in the stomach and knocked off his feet. It took two more rathskellers to control the fight and separate the two.
A rathskeller is a person who shears chinchillas for a living. The job is little known and vastly underappreciated, as it requires great finess and skill to shear a chinchilla.

After hearing a sneeze, he sighed and declared to his wife, "Aw, shucks.. looks like we'll have to call in the rathskeller again..."

Why hello! Thanks for visiting my blog. I have to admit that I snuck a peek at yours a while back, as you see, I would like to publish children's books as well. Anyway, the REAL definition of Rathskeller is the matter that you find inbetween the toes of a wombat. It is usually neon green in color, and smells a tad like cookie dough making it not as offensive as one might think. When used properly, a wombat can fool his prey into thinking he is a Tollhouse fresh from the oven.
The president of the small, Catholic college named his mansion the "rathskeller."
"I like the name 'rathskeller,'" he said. "I thought it especially appropriate for my mansion because rathskeller means a meeting place of scholars and believers, as well as Irish step dancers. I am all of those things."
Well well Sharon - looks like you have a tough job ahead - if we are allowed to recommend I'd go for belle etoile,amalia and donner und blitzen !!
