“Kommunist Metafisto” made me chuckle. Thanks.

I’d prefer it if the AI gave it to me straight, like a pear cider that’s made from a 100% pears.

No fair. We all know this is the coolest car ever.

It looks cool? Well, we have completely different ideas of cool looks, apparently… I think this car looks cool. Image

That may be true, but in case of the Cybertruck, I doubt that there is any lipstick you can put on that particular pig that can somehow turn it into something I would even remotely consider buying.
I mean, I’m European, I can’t buy the fricking thing anyway, but I am also rather glad that I’m spared from ever seeing it in the wild.

Leaving all the downsides of the Cybertruck aside - the fact that it’s built by a fucking nazi, the fact that it can turn in to a death trap, the fact that the build quality is shit…
Who the fuck buys a hideous, hideous car like this…? Who suffers from such poor taste that they think a piece of junk that looks like it was designed by a five-year-old is something worth spending money on, let alone so much?

As much as people enjoyed Waltz’ performance in the opening scene and how utterly menacing and ruthless his facial expression was when he asked the Frenchman “You’re hiding enemies of the state, aren’t you”, can we all just take a moment to appreciate how he also pulled off looking exactly like the pathetic human being he portrays in this very image?

Whenever I read Schopenhauer’s name, I’m reminded of this part in a song by German punk pop band Die Ärzte.

As a fan of Terry Pratchett’s wonderful discworld novels, just like the orange douchebag writes his messages on Truth Social, I would love him to meet someone who speaks only in all caps.
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 3 weeks ago:
In Germany, we have the word “schönsaufen”, which means something along the line of “drinking until something or someone ugly looks pretty” and I think that’s beautiful.

I gamble too, but I do it with knockout options. I sometimes buy a factor 20 option, set it to 5% trailing stop loss and watch what happens.
In many cases, the option starts losing value and is automatically sold once it’s lost 5%, which isn’t too bad if you’ve invested, say, 1000 €. You lose ~50 €.
In other cases it goes up. And up. My current high score is making 450 € with one such investment.
It’s fun, and not too risky. Meanwhile, my retirement vehicles go brrr.

I started investing during the corona dip. Best financial decision of my entire life. These days, it’s an extra 20% effortless household income and the entire portfolio value is up almost 40%.
But even then, I felt I was just too late to the party for going into crypto. Thank goodness.

So here’s a quick recipe for a spicy egg salad. It’s a kind of love it or hate it thing.
20 cooked and roughly chopped eggs 1 jar of Hellmann’s Light mayonnaise 1 jar of white asparagus, chopped 1 jar of mushrooms 50g Stokes Curry Ketchup 3-4 dashes of Worcestershire sauce Habanero Tabasco to taste
Has the same musical effect on your digestion.
- Comment on Huh? 5 weeks ago:
Absolutely. When I go to a bar or restaurant, I prefer a place that doesn’t look like a co-working space. Also, when I see anyone using a laptop in there, I’m out.

When I was a little kid, one of those flying cunts stung my brother. So I declared war on them.
Over the years of my childhood, I caught dozens with my net. I held the landing net in front of a cross spider’s web, so that the wasps, triumphantly but mistakenly believing they had gained their freedom, had to fly straight into the web.
And then I watched those little assholes get destroyed. I’m pretty sure that to this day, I’m worshipped as a god by the local cross spider population.

- Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason 2 months ago:
Still sounds really great.
I’m German, and whenever someone here claims the British have bad food I mention all the fantastic chutneys and pickles you guys have over there. Particularly fond of a thing called “Glorious Garlic Pickle” by The Bay Tree. I wish I had the recipe because they don’t ship to mainland Europe.
- Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason 2 months ago:
The onions still do the heavy lifting, I guess, and “a few bottles of malt vinegar” sounds a little excessive.
I personally prefer pure caramelized onions without any other ingredients except a bit of salt, to be honest. Won’t keep as long in the fridge but is the most versatile.

Even then, a BMW would tailgate and flash its headlights at you on a German autobahn.
- Comment on bumper sticker 2 months ago:
The sticker should also say something like “But don’t worry, we’re going to be evaporated in a huge explosion anyway, due to the gigantic release of energy when you crash into my car in a few nanoseconds.”
- Comment on Some people prefer corn for some ungodly reason 2 months ago:
Onion chutney. And it IS divine. Add it to burgers or steak and you will regret having wasted so many years without it.

Clever, I like it. I wonder how many people read it and have no clue what it means.

Interesting. I never knew what they actually used. I had never encountered that smell in West Berlin at the time. And certainly not since the wall came down. Thanks for solving this mystery. 🙂

Alright, you hypocrites who downvote me without having the balls to respond:
Where do you draw the line? Just tell me, I wanna know.
I’m fucking German, should I joke about buying Anne Frank a drum set? Where’s off limits? Instead of cowardly downvoting, have the fucking balls to engage in a discussion. Pathetic.

- It’s a rather lame joke. The premise has been used a thousand times already.
- It’s at the expense of someone’s disability. Ask yourself how often Peter Dinklage has seen this joke in his life.
You can joke about everything, but at least make a fucking effort.
- Comment on I'd buy it. 2 months ago:
You can make jokes about everything. But if you do it at the expense of others, and the touchier and sensitive the subject, you better make sure it’s a fucking good joke.
People tend to miss that part. Especially the one about short people is always the same lame punch line - the one along the line of this post.
- Comment on I'd buy it. 2 months ago:
Make jokes at the expense of the disabled, races, transgenders or religious people, and you will be rightly criticized and shamed for it.
Make jokes at the expense of people who are ugly, fat or short in stature, somehow that’s still okay with way too many people…
