They are looking for that 9 cents exactly on the supermarket counter for 5 mins. You keep waiting for nothing.
I hope, I am not the only annoyed one for this.
Startup Capital of Europe! Haha, Never laughed so hard in my life! A bunch of useless poop companies run by egomaniacs where desperate people from all over Europe are being exploited!
Sometimes I really wonder where all these so called highly qualified expats work in Berlin! Low paid poop jobs wherever you look, not to mention the terrible atmosphere in most jobs!
I wonder how many actual expats are in Berlin.
An expat is actually a person with a specific mission in a country for a specific period of time. Usually academicians, diplomats, strategists in companies, top management sent to “clean out the mess” for a bit, so basically a high (to very high)level.
Why are people using this work to define foreigners living in Berlin?
99% are plain immigrants.
I find this extremely condescending, especially from American immigrants. They always call themselves Expats and really get offended when you explain that they are not.
Some reverse weird hypocrites.
Let’s put emphasis on the explanation for the dictionary where it says “informal”.
Yes, it got to the point where it’s used pejoratively, but that’s not what it means at origin.
Expat is not JUST a person living in a different country that is not their own.
Thanks for sharing. I guess you and you voters are the offended ones, and honestly I cannot even think why the hell people are offended by the word “immigration”.
Each to their own
Just passed by Zoologischer Garten: at least 2 dozen of Alcoholics sleeping on the street around Curry 36, new Corona refugees from the East I guess! After visiting Hamburg last weekend it doesn’t suprise me: you almost have to step over them in front of the Mainrail station, no to mention the hundreds of beggars. Yeah what a nice country Germany is, fornicate this disgusting idiot
I need a meetup of like minded individuals. Grab some weed, drinks, or your poison. How can we set this up?
I don’t even know where to begin. I’m in santorini. Yesterday I was on the beach at a chair and the waiter came and said there was another person who was alone on a chair and if we could join. So I said sure. Guess what, it was a Cherman. First day was fine, although a few things grated on my nerves. Like the cheapness and complaints. Second day I was working all day. The Cherman wrote me and asked me to dinner. Well long story short, the creepy looks escalated to incredibly obvious staring, they asked me to come back to my hotel to use my nail clippers, and every comment of their mouth was a complaint about price of something or something whatever... they had a broken shoe. Made me walk 40 minutes to a shoe store. Decided not to buy any cheap flip flops. Yes 40 minutes in 30 degree heat with a broken shoe to not spend 10 euro on flip flops because sehr teuer. Then made me walk another 30 minutes looking at every menu trying to find the freshest food for under 10 euro. I said I didn’t feel like walking if we could just go back to the beach bar we were at yesterday. They complained the entire meal. I wanted to lose it. They also made sure to point out each item of clothing they had and how the bought it used online. Then they leave a two euro tip and say to the waiter it’s from both of us. The food was 7 euro. They complained it was bad. Well it was very good and for 7 euro. So I leave another 2 euro tip and they tried to steal it from the table!!!! Finally after the dinner the asked to come back to the hotel to use the nail clippers and I though, how freaking disgusting this person. We are in santorini, they retarted chose the most expensive island to go to and complain entire time ??? I just told them you know what bye, and walked away. To return to a bunch of sms asking what they did wrong. I said I have been in Greece over two weeks having an amazing time and they were horribly cheap and terrible and they ruined my mood. Germans ruin a beautiful day in the beach on one of the most beautiful island in the world, complaining about price. Horrible culture. Reminds me why I left.
Op here: I know! It was on perissa. But even still, I was enjoying the vibes and felt whole, until this Cherman came over. Well the owner of the bar said we should share the umbrella because we were both alone and it was busy so I said why not, without first knowing they were Cherman
Why are they all insane? Is mental health ignored here? Is it a culture thing? What’s wrong with these people. Even the nicest Germans I’ve met have been broken up by evil significant others and are afraid of their own existence. They’re all so concerned about what they have to do tomorrow, that they can’t ever have fun (sex with them is a nightmare). Unless they drink or drug themselves to death. I feel sorry for them
This is so true, unfortunately.
The biggest puzzle is why are they not able to cope and move on from evil significant others? We all had our fair share of broken up encounters, that’s life, but most of normal people end up moving on at some point. They don’t.
Maybe they should let their guard downs, go psychotic from time to time, let it out of their system and done. It’s like they slow cook their frustration inside and block everything.
Yesterday I had a chat with American friend! He wants to escape the hellhole US as he called it and move to Berlin with his girlfriend!
I couldn’t help myself but to laugh but didn’t try to change his mind: sometimes you have to go trough hell to find a better place

No matter how hard you work it's impossible to move forward in Berlin. There's no point in even trying and I can assure you that that is a lesson you will learn on your own after living here for more than 3 years. It's best to give up and go somewhere else without this oppressive society.

The true story of Karl Marx that the Germans never admit to.
Pretty eye opening to hear about how Marx insulted his rivals as "Jewish niggers" and about how he grew up in an affluent family that eventually cut him off because he was basically just a parasite. Extremely fitting that the communist ideology came from such a disgusting human being. Next time I'm in London I'll spit on his grave.
If you ever have the msfortune of meeting a German feminist, bring up he wage gap myth and see her reaction, they love being victims. Here's the reality of the so-called wage gap. www.forbes.com/sites/evangerstmann/2019/06/06/dispelling-myths-about-the-gender-pay-gap/
I don't have a problem with women working, as long as the workplace is child friendly and they don't get their jobs through discriminating Affirmative Action initiatives. There are too many mediocre women rising to the top to fill quotas, which is not only unfair to more capable men, but also more capable women who don't need special quotas to get ahead, they do it instead by hard work. I'm sick and tired of hearing privileged females whining and moaning about non-existent sexism. Berlin females are the worst at this.
I don't know, am I overreacting? Went to the grocery store today. Was standing somewhere in the aisle. Behind me and in front of me there were 2 people, husband and wife I suppose. They were screaming at each other - this was their way of communication. I thought it was just super loud and annoying - in the end, they were in a supermarket, not somewhere in the woods with no other people in sight. I don't know if the screaming bothered me or it only bothered me because it was in Arabic? I truly don't know. I have never seen Germans or other nationalities (besides Turks) being so loud in a closed space.
Thank you well dressed stranger on the U6 today. I needed to see someone who has style and attitude! You looked like a King next to all the Germans dressed in bin bags.
