"Du alte Schnarchnase" - you old snoring nose! What a descriptive expression for a sleepy-head, a slowpoke, a dope. "Schnarchnase" can be a fond term for a sleepy pet, or even a loudly snoring spouse, but it also describes someone who has messed up a task. It may have been well-intentioned, but the "Schnarchnase" got it wrong all the same.
