    …irgendwem haben wir jedenfalls die Beerdigung/Trauerfeier versaut.

    Klingt eher so, als wäre das der Pfarrer gewesen. Ihr wärt wahrscheinlich von alleine gegangen, sobald sich die Gelegenheit ergeben hätte.

    the popular German railway company DB

    There’s another one‽

    [Edit] I feel like people are not getting the joke. DB is the single most hated public infrastructure provider in Germany. So obviously, “the popular German railway company DB” must be a different entity. Hence “There’s another one⸘”






  • Everone always praises Asimov’s Foundation, but I found his robot stories (collected both in “I, Robot” and “The Complete Robot”) more entertaining. While Foundation is more of an adventure story, the robots pose interesting philosophical questions are are always good for a last-minute reveal. They’re also usually quite short, so they’re a good read when your time is on a budget or you’re not an avid reader in general.

    I wish I had learned earlier that short stories can also be entertaining and not just the artsy bullshit you’re forced to read in school.
