Der Adler ist gelandet.And he's being mean to me.
Hmm, is the first bit right? I left it up to Babelfish, but I'd expect the ist to be a hast. But to save me from ein Berliner syndrome, I'll leave it alone (and thus be able to blame Babelfish).
Anyhoo,
That's one of those haben / sein anomalies. Normally one would say "ich habe etwas getan", but if the verb involves movement - running, driving or in the dialect here, lying perfectly still - they say "Ich bin gelaufen, gefahren, voll wahnsinnig" or whatever...
And me be mean? Never!
