Finally, proof that Germans have no sense of humour: me considering these guys to be hilarious:

Thankfully, we Germans have no sense of homour, otherwise I'd laugh ass off watching this:

After five days of Gamescom, I am seriously exhausted.

Always wondering: why does Hollywood cast actors for German-speaking roles who have an abominable pronunciation (e.g. Denis O'Hare in "True Blood" - esp. in direct comparison to the excellent German of Alexander Skarsgård)?

@Master Phruby: e.g. Christopher Lee's German is quite good (he dubbed himself for the German language version of "The Last Unicorn").
@wood_jl: In older Hollywood movies the German is even worse (e.g. Alan Rickman in "Die Hard"), but one would think they considered the worldwide distribution of movies and TV series by now.
And I fear it's the same issue with any other language, as if there were no German/French/Russian/Spanish/etc. speaking actors available...

Apple store in Hamburg sued by works council over CCTV, Amazon Germany on strike for tariff salary ..., some U.S. companies apparently still don't understand the importance of works councils and trade unions here.

@Atarian - Companies have warmed up to outsourcing so much because our politicians have given in to their wants for cheaper Labor. Hence programs like NAFTA (In America, this was the beginning of the end of our Manufacturing industry). I too would be very nervous if Labor Unions were banned. As Fletch said, they're the ones who ushered in many of the worker's rights that we enjoy today.
@Atarian, please read some history instead of regurgitating opinions you've heard o...

Bauhaus just bought our Max Bahr DIY store at the same day the sell-out started. First step to Bauhaus' world domination (ref. The Mutant Chronicles) I presume.

Does dying in a self-released avalanche qualify for a Darwin Award?

Dukes of Hazzard will be banned in the US shortly I presume, considering the paint job on The General Lee's roof.

@Stephen: We had it all here in Germany. The Nazi flags are banned (except for their use art - including movies, but no comic books usually, so in Captain America the Nazis wave a window lattice flag instead - and historical purposes), so Nazis started abusing the (WWI and prior) Imperial War Flag first, then after outlawing the use of this flag on their rallys they actually started using the flag of Norway (to the embarassment of all Norwegians who learn about this fact), which of course can...

Found an apathetic jackdaw on our house's front door yesterday - tried saving it. Was dead this morning.

fter three matches, I favour the Danish team in the FIFA Euro championship now. They have the least number of idiot fans chasing their cars through the streets with continously honking horns after a win. Shortly followed by Russia (one idiot yesterday).

Galactica 1980 is the only TV series that managed to jump the shark and grow a beard at the same time.

If you don't like all the Space Troopers, and time on Earth, here was one good fan effort to take the best of the 1980 series and make a good story from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O194x48XaT8&list=PL8DnloZ5LQFSM7X4Kf_I_zavr0ziKKRJP

Great, my employing company filed insolvency in July, and until today it seemed we were heading to a clean takeover. This hope ended today due to the Royal Bank of Scotland (principal owner of our stores and parking lots) not coming to an agreement with the remaining possible investor.

Had a colonoscopy with polypectomy today - apparently I had five polyps, not just to as I was told after the first colonoscopy. Glad they're out, for they might have turned into cancer...
