Well, come on, man, there's no one here from your family or your work. No need to pretend. 

 

And we all know that you are very professional, a good person, mature and responsible.

 

No problem.

 

What is your favorite day?

 

Weddings?

Birthdays?

Australia Day?

Public Holiday? 

 

 

I love Saturdays. 😁

Especially quiet Saturdays where there is nothing I need to be doing.

I can just kick back and relax.

The older I get, the more I appreciate these days of just doing nothing.

What about you, mate?

8. Like Aussies, they also have a drinking problem. <---- This completely breaks my previous theory associating drinking and cold. Because although I've never been in Australia, rumor has it that it's very hot. What makes you drink a lot? The desert night? Something to forget? The long hard wait for the BS?

As someone who doesn't drink, I don't feel I'm equipped to answer this question. 😄

With that said, Aussies will look for any excuse to drink. 

Weddings, birthdays, and other celebrations? Drink!

Australia Day? Drink!

Public Holiday? Drink!

Happy with a bowel movement you had that day? Drink!

And the list goes on...

It's essentially part of the culture, for better or worse.

yup very true. I had to ship back two of the ultraman steelbooks (series 2 and 5) three or four times and still couldn't get one that was not binged up I finally walked into a best buy found the two I needed to complete the collection for that specific run. don't get me started on the condition both venom and super 8 steels came in from amazon. me personally if I can I like being able to walk in and look over the steelbooks as numerous times I've avoided those with small dents (sometimes hard to tell with the shrink wrap still on) sightly bent or the spine was slashed just by careful inspection. 

I'm tempted to cancel my existing pre-orders with Amazon because of this, but then I'll miss out on editions which have now gone out of stock.

This is why I wish we had more places like Best Buy.

JB Hi-Fi is limited with its exclusives compared to countries like Germany, the UK and the US.

I was talking to one of the guys at my local best buy yesterday evening about this and he wasn't happy either but knew it was coming. like us he and some of his coworkers are big physical media guys. yeah amazon will have steels but as some said they have a bad habit of shipping them in those flimsy thin envelope shaped bags so when you get them your steelbook looks like it ran into an angry mike tyson in a dark alley. I reached out to amazon on facebook once about that and they said it was to reduce material waste something like and yet they'll still ship a small sized product with a much bigger box like a little tube of super glue in a box big enough for footwear. makes no sense. 

I always feel like I'm playing the lottery when ordering from Amazon.

It could go either one of three ways:

1. It's packaged properly and the item made it out okay.

2 It's not packaged properly and the item somehow made it out okay.

3. It's not packaged properly and the item is f**ked.

You remember this scene from "Police Academy 2"?

That is the same relationship the Germans have with the French.

Maybe I'm wrong, after all I'm new to the gang, but...

 

I get the impression that for many people here Monday is like New Year's Day:

 

After being happy the night before, when you manage to wake up, you go to a coffee shop where you have a date with the person you met the night before, with whom you made out..., and then you see yourself in front of him/her... and you start to listen.... and life slaps you in the face with cruel reality.

 

 

I think many people here feel the same way but every Monday when they see themselves at breakfast... and see that they have to go to work.  

 

 

Thank you very much for your reply, and for your love, Thomas. 

 

I'm certainly starting to feel that in this thread I will become a better person, a mature and coherent guy. I will start to think better about my choices, I will evaluate them rationally, and I will discover the truth of things beyond appearances. 

 

Deep down, I'm lucky to be here, after few years floating between all kind of Psychos...

 

From now on I will stop doing a lot of things I shouldn't, of course, and I will do other things that I shouldn't but... are much more fun. 

All in a much more coherent way, of course. 

 

Never fail to point me in the right direction, please. 

 

 

In fact, you should make a manual on how to survive properly in the German thread. 

 

 

In your message we have two fingers: one pointing at me, and one pointing at people drinking alcohol.

 

Are you trying to tell me something?

 

From someone who's been involved with the German Room for the past few years, here are some things you should know:

1. They are very consistent with their Good Mornings.

2. Contrary to popular belief, they do have a sense of humour.

3. They secretly love their French companions.

4. When it comes to Beauty Shots, the stereotype of German efficiency is a myth.

5. The top 3 favourite German actors are: Matthias Schweighöfer, Til Schweiger and Jean Claude Van Damme.

6. Do not ever confuse Austrians with Germans.

7. Try and Sprich Deutsch wherever possible.

8. Like Aussies, they also have a drinking problem.

It's WB, insane that no one has done it yet. Manta, hdz, and blufans all have the wb license but we get spammed with BvS and wonder woman 😑

HDZeta seems dead in the water.

I'm hoping Blufans or Manta will read this and think about it. 

Superman II would also be good. 

Psst.

Hey, WeET.

Release this movie next:

I think you should all know “ Must I, must I go out to the Städtele” 😅  (“Wooden Heart” —> Elvis discovered the song during his military service in Germany).

 

Cheri Cheri Lady ist der beste Song, den Deutschland je produziert hat.

Ich fordere Sie auf, mich umzustimmen.
