Limao is right and, as always, all people using automatic translators only get nonsense out of them.

"blank" is, in German, used as a slang word for "out of money", like you would use "broke". "Ich bin blank" would mean "I am broke". The sentence means "I'm eating cheese when I'm broke". Don't know why he does, however ...

The phrase "ich bin blank" in german has the meaning "I'm out of money". So this means "I'm eating cheese when I'm out of money". But I don't understand the sense...

It means
I eat cheese, if I am bright.

Which makes no sense what he would say it unless being sarcastic you should be bright enough to find the supermarket

Yes, it is in German. I'm surprised you knew how to spell everything and put the umlauts (the dots over the a) where they needed to go if you didn't actually know what language this was. ;)

:) it's nonsense. "I eat cheese when I'm (blank)" blank can mean polished, naked (very rare, i'd never use it) or shiny.... i think he's just stupid :)
