Why oh why do germans call their sons and daughters Johnny or Jenny, when they can’t even pronounce J properly?! I swear it always sounds like Chonny and Chenny. What is wrong with these people?!?!

“ White Germans need to spend a bit less time Germansplaining about where racism starts and Diskriminierung begins and a bit more time listening to brown and black people talking about the ways in which life in this country is hard and uncomfortable.”
“Why don’t germans shut up and listen?”
Very well said
The funny thing about these articles on Exberliner by Jacinta Nandi is that, in her profile pictures, she doesn't even look non-white. I agree with a lot of what she says, but she's ideologically possessed to the point that it's tiresome to read her opinions. She wants people to put her on a pedestal for supposedly being "non-white" and not on the merits of the soundness of her reasoning. She's everything that's wrong with identity politics even if I agree with many of the things she says.
Jacinta married a German guy so she could come here, have an anchor baby, and collect Kindergeld for 27 years. She supplements that with writing 1 article for exberliner per month for 25eur. She's not Indian; she's from UK. Feel bad for her but I am sure eventually she'll get fed up with this male genitalia country and moce back to UK which, even with Brexit, is a billion times better than Jerkoffmany.
Last time I returned to Berlin from being away I left the ubahn and there was a man with shaving cream all over his face and head yelling in the road and another janky old woman dancing in bikini. fornicate
I thought Germany would be similar to home because they are white but everything they do is backwards that it’s the most foreign place, intellectually as well as emotionally. The only people who live here long term are from worse third world, but Berlin is still third world. Just a white one
In my opinion Germany is the same as all Scandinavian countries and Netherlands/Belgium. All full of soulless robots that can't really think for themselves. I like France, Italy and Poland a lot. The people there have humanity within them. They know how to laugh and love.
Germans are bad at sex. Please discuss.
Since I moved to Berlin I got so freaking ugly. My skin, my hairs are falling out, wrinkles and I don't wash myself anymore. What is happening with me
Bad water quality, probably full of synthetic estrogen since all thr women here gobble birth control pills from the age of 14 until menopause. Also major depressive syndrome. And who cares how you look anyway, no one here flirts anyway and who wants to F some weird German creep who mouths "wanna fuck?" while sliding his d'ck out of the leg of his tiny shorts.
The water quality has too much of something, I think it’s calcium. I’ve seen this somewhere before.
But also you may want to see a doctor. Hair and skin changes can mean you have an illness.
One reason I left Berlin was for this reason, because ageing. Nobody here seems to think about what this lifestyle does to their physical and menta health and how gross they may look in the future

I wonder where that antifa guy went. Maybe the lefties, thugs and feminists finally got him.
:o) Maybe he's out working to earn a living and trying to create wonderful things by being pro-active, instead of being anti-everythng and destroying what hard working people have built and saved to own. And you know what, I bet these moronic imbeciles will find some twisted way to justify themselves. I've traveled the world many times and I have never met any group more narcissistic and stupid as AntiFa thugs and Feminists.
That's strange, I thought you said you weren't going to post here anymore because not everyone agrees with your pathetic, childish lefty agendas. Good luck with your loser lefty friends, they will be the future drunks and alcoholics hanging around kiosks citing passages of Das Kapital :o))))))))))))) Stupid, hypocritical morons.
And they are the main reason Berlin is a a steaming pile of dog shiiiiitttttttttttt.
You dumb bitch. I'm not German, I'm not the guy who is always complaining about antifas and women and I am going to move out of shit-hole Berlin as soon as I've saved enough money from my horseshit menial job here to relocate. And I'm sure as hell not staying in naziland.
" Maybe he's out working to earn a living and trying to create wonderful things by being pro-active, instead of being anti-everythng" hahaha said from the motherfffukkku who is THE definition of anti and negativity. Dude you shittttin us all day everyday with negativity and anti shit. Shut the hell up

I don’t understand what happened. When I first moved to Berlin I loved it, although it was a struggle, I thought I just had to get myself situated. Then after I got the anmeldung and poop after 6 months and a place to live I realized the struggles never ended. It was just a dark and aggressive a poor place. I don’t get how I had such a fun time before, I think it’s because I was subletting and I didn’t have an anmeldung. I know it sucks to not have anmeldung and bounce around if you want to live there, but my suggestion to anyone who wants to live in Berlin is just sublet for a summer and don’t get in their system. Because their system makes your life hell and it’s not easy to get out.
Yes, just be a tourist there, don't settle!!!
Just take the best out of it for a week or two, realise how lucky you are living somewhere else and allowing yourself just to visit! Eat good tasty food, buy some stuff and leave, thas a perfect scenario, I think!
This place is good for a visit but not actually living here. Plus, if you are a recent college grad this isn’t the place to come. Berlin can’t be taking seriously if you want to have a real life. The people, this place is a big joke. If I could I would sue this place for ruining my life. The only foreigners they want here are the ones who will clean toilets.
"The only foreigners they want here are the ones who will clean toilets."
So true. Germans scoff at PhDs in New York City who end up driving cabs while the foreign-born PhDs here (of which there are few because German academia has managed to hold on to biased, highly subjective selection processes for PhD programs - hell for most university programs) scrub toilets or deliver packages for Amazon. These people consider 40,000 EUR per year a "very good" salary. Calculate your monthly disposable income and use that to figure out how many years you'd have to save to buy a modest 50m2 apartment here. Backwards country.
I’m the Op. I remember I visited Berlin for a week and had the impression it was “challenging” for some reason. I have some psychic ability and often random words like that pop into my head. Well I didn’t know anything other than I had that sense, based on the energy of the place. If I had only known how challenging it was in every aspect..
I also remember feeling uncomfortable in the area I was staying, tense and on edge (kreuzberg). I am not sure why I became obsessed with the place, or considered to look into more what life was like there. I think what made it hard is I met several people during my time there who “loved” Berlin but nobody told me otherwise. I can’t imagine being obsessed with Berlin for more than a year or two maximum.
^ and I also thought for some reason I had to get “in” through this challenge so I put myself up to the challenge to move there, do all the things I needed to do like anmeldung etc, before realizing what the fornicate I had gotten myself into it was too late, and I spent a year stuck unable to get out of the place because I was so broke.
Ha, ha, when I first arrived in Berlin, I said to evry German I met, why aren't you buying these ridiculously cheap apartments, t=you will never have to pay rent again and the prices are going to sky-rocket when Berlin fills up. Everyone of them said the same "vee Germans do not buy, vee only rent". They are biggest phuck-knuckles on earth. Now they have to spend 60% of their wages on rent. A golden opportunity gone to waste. You could buy apartments in Berlin for €40-50,000 only ten years ago, some even cheaper.
They didn’t buy the apartments because they didn’t have any money. Because it is impossible to save that kind of money when you are taxed that high.
Isn’t the rave history of Berlin everyone was on welfare and so that’s why the parties became three days, since no one had to work on mondays ? This is what I’ve read somewhere. Having an industry is relatively new.
Lmao look at the costs just for a notary when buying real estate here. Germans like to pretend their notaries are anything more than a robot that reads text aloud and confirms signatures because otherwise they'd be mad at having to pay several thousand euros for zero actual benefit. But these are also the same people that thibks it makes sense to pay a realtor 3x monthly rent because they let you look at an apartment for 15 minutes once. Everything here is designed to rip you off.
just a shitton of unnecessary closing costs when you buy. Property tax in Germany is low because somehow the government managed to f#ck up their own calculations for like 60 years. The highest court decided that how it's done now has to be changed but Germany is trying to postpone that because it's gonna financially ruin a shittton of people. Eventually it's gonna change though and everything is gonna get a lot more expensive, including renting an apartment.
Do these idiots not realize that when you put a shower head on the wall you need to MOUNT it and not sit there hosing yourself down like an animal? Oh yeah, and the mount needs to be situated at the foot of the tub. In order to spray the water down the length of the tub instead of out onto the floor. You don’t mount the shower in the middle. You also need a shower curtain. You also need a toilet that doesn’t have a shelf for poop
LOL I was beginning to think I was the only sane person in this country for noticing this. What the hell is with the weird showerhead mounts that are like 10cm above the tub? Is that for people that shower sitting down? Also what's up with the drains here being so slow. I have become paranoid that mine is clogged so I clean it once a week. No matter what the water drains about half as fast as the tub fills while I am showering.
As far as I can tell, people here also don't ever properly clean their skin. They don't use loofas or washclothes or anything that scrubs off dead skin cells. In fact, I remember a German ex gf I had once who made fun of me for using a loofa. By her reasoning, I was only using it because I was "afraid to touch my own genitals". Germans are dumb fucks.
Berlin makes me paranoid
This cannot be overstated. Never seriously got into conspiracy theories until I moved here. There is absolutely no way Germany achieved first world status without some serious hidden conspiracies. A country where most the people have an IQ below 100, are lazy, extremely prone to alcoholism/drug abuse, that was defeated in two world wars and has pretty much zero natural resources... yeah right.
They just did good PR guys because they had to to save their international reputation. Do you know that IBB artist grant they gave out? They made PR everywhere around the world people back home posting about how fantastic germany is (again) well they are asking for that money back.... I saw something something about fraud yesterday. Apparently you could only use the items on certain things. Whatever
West Germany, man. This country got A LOT of money and help from the US when East Germany was still around. A lot of money and help to show commies how rich they are. That’s why. South Korea is also very rich for the same reason. But Koreans are smart so they also contributed to the economic boom there. Germans are dumb so the economy gets worse and worse
It doesn’t help that our names are on the doorbells showing the location in the building where we live. That makes me the most paranoid because I have a street facing window where drug dealers stand directly a cross and there is another building directly across. And I am a woman living alone...
Germany should pay back all the funds given under the Marshall Plan. They also need make restitution to Greece, Italy and probably most other European countries for WWII. Until they do so, and pay for their own defense programs, they should have absolutely no say at all internationally. They shouldn't be invited to G8 summits, they shouldn't be able to speak at UN and NATO conferences. This country currently cannot be taken seriously.
Marc Twain:
Surely there is not another language that is so slipshod and systemless, and so slippery and elusive to the grasp. One is washed about in it, hither and thither, in the most helpless way; and when at last he thinks he has captured a rule which offers firm ground to take a rest on amid the general rage and turmoil of the ten parts of speech, he turns over the page and reads, "Let the pupil make careful note of the following exceptions." He runs his eye down and finds that there are more exceptions to the rule than instances of it.
Wtf are you talking about German language being logical? They change the genders randomly throughout the tenses. At first when I was learning German the only way I could learn it was to not question the rules and just memorize it because it made no sense. Then I realize the entire society functions like that
there are quite a lot of rules about the genders as well although obviously some you just have to memorise. But apart from genders theres nothing difficult about it. Its pronounced like its spelled and a lot ot the words are transparent i.e. they do what they say and yes i repeat it is a logical language which makes you think more logically too
German is a language for autists. And it's not even precise, as some of you claim. Yeah, the declination system makes it very precise sometimes. But other times it's completely ambiguous. Take for example this sentence: "Was von dir erwartet wird ist unmöglich". It could either mean "That which you are expecting is impossible" or "What is expected of you is impossible". There are plenty of these kinds of sentences. They're retarded, just like most Germans. Imagine some fat old German slob sitting around and deciding which words will henceforth be male, female, neuter. That's the same archetype that's sitting in every position of petty authority here.
Yes but the sentence you give as an example would not be on it's own, it would have to have an additional qualifying sentence to make complete sense. English is an inferior language altogether, made up of several other languages German, Latin, French, etc...and American English is grating on the ears nowadays but very nice in pop music but nothing else.
