This still works, except there was some translation loss, you need to kiss the donkey's butt. The asses' ass, as it was.

And the way it works is that the donkey doesn't like getting its ass kissed, so it kicks you in the face and then you don't have a tooth ache anymore. Or a tooth. Or a face. German ingenuity! [Source: am of German descent]
