"A law with literally the longest name in history" Mate, Selbstbestimmungsgesetz is one of the shortest names for a law I've ever seen. Don't you disrespect Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz.
Yeah, it looks sweet next to Verkehrsinfrastrukturfinanzierungsgesellschaftsgesetz or Vermögenszuordnungszuständigkeitsübertragungsverordnung and of course the classic you mentioned
The vote is for the "Jugendwort des Jahres", so the "youth word of the year", an annual vote for youth slang known for being "slightly" out of touch, especially in the beginning. The woman in the video is Susanne Daubner, a news anchor for the most known state news broadcast, the Tagesschau. In the last few years the Tagesschau has begun to broadcast the 10 words in contention and she became a meme for pronouncing the words in a typical German news anchor style, very clear and without emotion. Also, the olympics didn't parody The Last Supper, they were inspired by a painting of a feast of the greek gods.
The "Feast of Dionysus", but honestly, I didn't know about it either until I saw a post about it. The reaction of the conservatives was still a bit much.
@@not_that_personNot to get too political but it's just typical "I make things up in my head to be mad at". I'm willing to bet most people still think it was a parody of the last supper because they want it to be that way. Though some blame should also be laid in the organisers because it did show some similarities which should have been avoided, like the sun behind one of the actors that could be interpreted as a depiction of jesus, which should've been obvious that it would cause confusion in the first place, though that's about it.

There are three types of Germans: 1. Not caring about the insects, therefore not installing screens. 2. Caring about the insects, therefore installing screens (me). 3. Caring about the insects, being too lazy to install screens, still complaining about insects anyway 🙄
I'm 3 but I only complain about wasps and stuff like that. I normally like to have a spider in my room or in front of my window as they keep the insects at bay, also we don't really have any really dangerous spiders up here close to Hamburg.

And which app/ program do you think he should use? I did Duolingo and it started with the basic like Hund, Katze, Maus. It was terrible boring but luckily I had 3 years English in school some (40) years before. So how long will it take him to read and understand German plus to understand memes he also needs the background informations or a good explaination.

10:31 This is nothing for a law name: There was the "Rinderkennzeichnungs- und Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz." (meaning something like "Cattle marking and beef labeling supervision duties delegation law"). It was long time condidered one of the longest german words
Problems with an outward opening window in the famous "German Style" is, that there is a great chance somebody will forget about the open window and rain can pour in easily.
As far as I know it wasn’t a depiction of the last supper but of an old painting that showed Dionysos ( a god from the Ancient Greek pantheon, appropriate for a tournament founded by ancient Greeks) holding festivities.
4:15: The play was based on the greek mythology (Dionysos was their god of wine and festivities), but every "religious" people got offended, because they mismatched it with the christian fairy tales.
it was arranged like the very famous painting (probably the second most famous overall after the mona lisa), not hard to misinterpret, astonishing nobody planning it noticed that...
@@Bioshynthere are a bunch of paintings of feasts from that time with a bunch of people behind a long table. Also, the painting you reference, the one of the last supper, very much wasn't arranged like this, as there was noone on the table, and the food and decor on the table wasn't as lavish, as that wouldn't make sense for the christian last supper. You know what is also well known, directly connected to Olympia through ancient Greece and looks much more like what they did? A dionysian feast. This might be less recognizable for non-Europeans, but in much of Europe we have both a part of our history education in school reference the ancient Greeks and have quite common references to classical antiquity. If you compare it side by side there is very little actual resemblance between the olympic opening ceremony and the famous painting of the last supper, except that there are some people behind a long table.
That's EDUCATION for you - everything resembles something you already know: you just know a few christian themed paintings and voila - they ripped their "feast" from there, right?
@@Bioshyn what do you mean "people took it as such"? Just because some people got offended loudly over something they didn't understand that doesn't mean that everyone saw it that way.

Nope, not a parody of the last supper. It was a Dionysian feast, something that originated in Greece like that famous sports festival. How was that called again? Ah right the Olympic games....
Ofcourse the famous dyonisis and his feasts. I mean the maker of this " show" claimed they used the painting of the Last supper as Inspiration but ofcouse only an idiot would See the Last supper in it. It was the female god of feasts and lust with his/her 12 ....party people

Fifth! Ryan, we have so called Mückennetze = mosquito nets for our terrasse/balcony doors and windows in black or in white color, some flexibly fixed with a Klettverschluss = velcro fastener for windows or doors, sometimes with a magnetic closer for the doors so that you don't have to arrange the net every time you went through the door, or with a hard frame that is clicked into a window frame and with hard frame for the doors just like in the USA.

The thing with pointing out safety issues like smoke detectors getting you into trouble also happens/happened in the USA.

15:30 That's a speed trap which is not only disguised behind a street sign and a trash can, it is also positioned only inches into a 30km/h zone, meaning it would measure your speed BEFORE you pass the sign and have a chance or indeed obligation to adjust your speed. IIRC they have to be at least 50m behind a sign. In any case, major dickbag way to position one.

"Abmahnung" is not a simple warning. It's an official warning from the employer which will be noticed in the official personnel file. However, employees have the right to take legal action against such official warnings to the labor court. But it is weird to give a official warning to a employee because the employee informed the employer about missing legally required smoke detectors.
6:30 different windows, different uses. But for the love of god, it is surely possible to put all the cool options into ONE type of window? But noooo, people fight about which one of the not-perfect options is perfect.
In my living room there are 3 windows of the same type. I would prefer one inward-tilted, one outward-tilted for bugs and one slide window to put an AC unit in :)
getting a warning because you told your manager there isn't a smoke detector is a very fast way to get damages paid. A warning will have implications for your job, it's kinda like being on probation from then on. That's highly illegal.
So eine Abmahnung hätte doch keinerlei Gültigkeit. Damit kommt kein Arbeitgeber vor Gericht durch. Würde eher das Gegenteil bewirken: es wurde offiziell dokumentiert dass der Chef gegen Regeln verstößt und es auf einen abgesehen hat.
7:20 The problem with this is the discussion about what is a safe distance. For example, there is a rule for distance between vehicles that depends on speed of travel. The faster the bigger the distance. But the ADAC has calculated this (i read it in their magazine some 10 to 15 years ago) and it is impossible to do this as there are enough cars that the whole road system would not suffice for all the traffic. On the other hand, there are a lot of idiots who think driving 1-2 meters behind you is a smart thing to do. But that is a human expression of stupidity as bad drivers are a universal truth.
15:36 Someone put that trash can there to sabotage the speed camera. This in combination with Article 20 Section 2 of the German Constitution ("All state authority originates from its people") is pretty much intended as a slight towards the authorities. And if a cop were to reprimand you you could answer by quoting Article 20 Section 4 ("All Germans have the right to resist against anyone seeking to abolish this order") If course it's hyperbolic and absolutely not how this article was intended , but it's still hilarious.
"It's totally blasphemous for me to vote, I don't even speak german" Now if THAT would be a criterium of disengagement from that vote, a LOT of germans would NOT be allowed to vote either...... Also, it's not about the "Word of the Year", but "Youth Word of the Year" instead....and they're usually pretty cringe. Susann Daubner (the news anchor woman in this video) is famous for being a very good and very serious news anchor and thus her saying these absolute cringe unhinged words in an all serious manner has become kind of a legendary meme in and of itself, which she also acknowledges and outside her "official" news lady duties has made fun of herself on certain occassions.
Yes it was a modern inclusive interpretation of the Bacchanalia and hence a reference to the cultural background of the origins of the olympic games. (Although Dionysos/Bacchus was likely one of the inspirations for the figure of Jesus Christ so there is some kind of link.)
The joke with the trashcan and the 30 kilometer speed limit sign (15:08) is about the "Radarfalle" (radar trap) behind the trashcan, a speed measuring device (flash, photography of you license plate...). The lid is opened blocking the camera lens, so power to the people, no longer to the state... ;-) The quote above is from the german constitution (Grundgesetz - roughly translates to something like basic law).

Until someone forgets to close the window and it starts raining, and then blames the manufacturer for the damage. I think, there is a good reason, why they tilt inside and not outside. Making them tilt in both directions would be extremely difficult to implement without sacrificing isolation and security.
1:30 The announcement for the vote for the youth word of the year. Langenscheidt is a dictionary publisher (Verlag = publisher (of books, records, ...); in former times also used for the "cottage industry" based on home-based work - the Verlag supplied the workers with raw material and sold then the products) and mostly known for their foreign language dictionaries and phrase books in a yellow cover, including some in thumb-size. 6:50 You can buy window (fly) screens at DIY stores, but most houses come without. The most time it is not a problem, only in summers like this year with alternating wet warm and hot sunny phases. One solution would be to have some spiders sitting in the window and weaving their own natural fly screens... 🙃 15:30 Somebody put the trash can in front of the mobile "speed trap" which was put here to secure all respect the 30 kph speed limit. The flipped open cover however covers only half of the window - I'm not sure therefore if it covers the camera as intended or only the reddish flashlight. (It looks like a trailer-based speed trap model - but it could also be a self-made decoy trap set here by some resident to scare speeders. If it would be a real mobile speed trap, there would be normally some municipal officer nearby to guard it, at least most of the time.)
As a German I had to laugh when he talked about "Selbstbestimmungsgesetz" being the longest name in history. How about "Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz" or "Grundstücksverkehrsgenehmigungszuständigkeitsübertragungsverordnung" ?
15:30 Behind the trash can there is a mobile radar trap, authorities had put there. So if you are speeding, that apparatus should take a picture of your car, and you'll be sent the bill for paying the fee two weeks later. But the lid of the trash can covers the lens...
I (like many many many others) have screens on the windows. It's an optional add-on, so people who move here from far away lands might not know that you can buy them in every DIY store and think we don't have them, as their apartment doesn't have any pre-installed.

You can also buy fly screens in Germany! There are ones that you can glue inside the window or you can buy some that are on the frame and you put them inside the window are you can buy some that are made at a company and they will put them in for you, but they are very expensive!
So about 30 percent of the houses I've been to have insect screens installed. I personally never do it, because insects don't really bother me and I care too much about my ability to climb on the windowsills or put flowers out and stuff like that. They also ruin the view for me.
A 'warning' is a concept of German employment law and is comparable to an expulsion from school in the broadest sense: If you do something that breaches your employment contract (e.g. frequent lateness, poor performance), do something that could damage your employer or its reputation, or otherwise seriously misbehave at work, the employer can issue an official warning. If the reason for the warning continues to occur, an issued warning can justify extraordinary dismissal and is therefore a legally important event and should be taken seriously as a sign of possible dismissal. However, employees can also write warnings to the employer if, for example, the salary is not paid or is paid late, which also justifies extraordinary dismissal on the part of the employee.
The more I think about the fold out windows, the more convinced I am. And screens do exist, but they aren't preinstalled. You have to get them yourselves. You can get them as cheaply as 6€
I have a friend, who showed me a thick pile of warnings (I think, there were at least 20), and read the funniest ones to me (and some of them were REALLY funny, like using bad words in the elevator in presence of customers - with exact quotations, of course). He could laugh about it, because he was Betriebsrat.
Right, you can "starve" from lack of vitamins and minerals washed out the body. I heard from girl who wanted to loose weight and drank 7, 8 liters water each day.
It wasn't the last supper as such after all , latest when they brought Dionysos out. However you can't convince me that the producers just sat in their ivory tower, thinking ppl would get the whole feast of the gods thing, instead of of just jumping to the Iconography most familiar to *them*... which ppl obviously did.😂
13:00 I think it's about parents (supposedly) being ok with their kids drinking alcohol, but at the same time being totally against them drinking energy drinks. I know someone who I think does drink several energy drinks per day (he's in his late 30s, though. But I assume he started in his teenage years or early 20s). Maybe he doesn't drink them every day, I don't know.
If you thought, "Selbstbestimmungsgesetz" is one of the most long words in German, take a look at: "Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz", which means Beef Labelling Monitoring Tasks Transfer Act
Trash cans are not labeled with a registered license plate. Therefore the owner can't be held responsible. Maybe a random bypasser grabbed the can and placed it like that. You can't stop a man if you didn't see him doing it. He didn't paint or damage the speedometer, so it ain't vandalism. I believe that is the best way to take a stand without facing any consequences.
5:15 It's basically a warning for like "disturbing the peace and the workenvironment" by pointing out there's no smoke detectors. Basically the boss being really pissed that someone pointed it out and he technically should do sth. Instead of doing sth, he tries to signal "don't ever point out errors again, fuck you for creating tasks i have to do now, i won't do it though, you shut up"
my dad was already drinking energy drinks when it was still illegal in Germany in the 90s red bull only became so big when it was allowed by the EU law change in 1994, after which the (legal) sales rose to "gigantic" levels
haha the enrgydrink thing is so real, my mum thinks energy drinks are the devil. But offers me to drink a wine or a beer with her every evening, while I am visiting. I get migraines when I drink alcohol. Energydrinks help lessen the severety of my migraines LUL
Speaking of more than one energy drink a day: In "Berufsschule" most of my classmates drank at least 2 cans of Red Bull and that was only in the morning! It had to be expensive too. I know they lived on their own, always complained about how broke they were, but they didn't stop drinking this stuff. They didn't even return their Pfand! I took the Pfand with me and got out with like 5€ a day.
Caffeine content in energy drinks is a lot higher in other countries, though. So drinking two in Germany is not a big deal at all. You drink multiple cups of coffee a day, don't you? But you shouldn't try that in other countries. I think even in Austria they can have seven times as much caffeine as they can legally have in Germany.
You shold know, that many people voted for the word "döp" or "döp dödö döp", but it was censored and not allowed. If you doesnt know, what i am talking about, listen to Gigi Augustino Tojour L'amour
4:10 It wasn't even a parody of the Last Supper, it was the feast of Dionysos with even someone dressed as Dionysos on the table. Conservatives just chose a shot where he wasn't seen but just people behind a table and raged about it.
We have screens, but windows usually dont come pre-equipped with them. So you have to install them yourself and of course there is cost and hassel involved. I've tried it a few times, butnoften, the get holes, get damaged, or the glue doesnt stick that keeps them up (most are taped in) so it's more of a hassle than dealing with a few bugs a year. Its really not the bad in Germany. Depending on where you live, of course. Near a Lake or a Swamp it may be worse. Also, screens dostirb your view to the outside. And in the dark winters we ge here, they take away some light, so you.would have to de-install and reinstall them each year. But that being said, if you are a richer German and hate bugs, I am sure you have a permant screen frame that can be inserted into the window frame and taken out, so you can have the nice professional screen in summer and free sight in winter.
I recommend a trip to Germany. I am sure, you are pretty famous over here by now 😂. Put it on your to do list. With your knowledge you should not have any problems 👍🏼.
One Euro is roughly 2DM. Re: energy drinks -- a 50/50 mix of natural apple juice and a good, natural sparkling water with lots of electrolytes is about as effective as a standard energy drink and MUCH better for your body. 🙂
The meme about the smoke detector thing was translated wrong. It should be... And you get reprimanded for doing so. Also the windows the Swedish have arw all over Scandinavia.

15:38 Paragraph 20 line 2 of the German Constitution is a law that states all state power is by the people and the picture below shows a speed camera being covered by a resident’s trash can lid. This is because the camera is so close to the traffic sign that it would register traffic in the area in front of the sign where it doesn’t technically count yet. I think the setup of this camera is illegal in the first place so the also-probably-not-legal covering of an illegally installed traffic camera by someone chancel each other out 😂
04:15 it wasn't DaVinci's last supper, it was "the feast of gods" by Jan van Bijlert showing greek gods - because of the olympics and all. conservatives were just outraged because christians don't actually know their own stuff
No, kids don't sit in a field drinking 12 energy drinks, they sit in their rooms drinking 12 energy drinks. This is the first time I heard someone genuinely think that people only drink one of those a day. Some people literally don't drink anything else.
You should watch videos about the Brittish movement against speed cameras. They wear dino costumes and dance in front of the cammeras with signs in their hands.
12:00 He calculated 1985 euro to 2024 euro ..... Anyway 1 000 000 DM from 1980 would be ~ 8 500 000 € today, or ~ $9 287 000 Ps: the US should learn the right order of numbers and units, I mean they say it the right way around but put the $ in front 😢
Energy drinks in the US and in EU are very different. Producers had to drastically reduce the amount of caffeine and the other stimulants in there by EU law.

Problems with an outward opening window in the famous "German Style" is, that there is a great chance somebody will forget about the open window and rain can pour in easily.
As far as I know it wasn’t a depiction of the last supper but of an old painting that showed Dionysos ( a god from the Ancient Greek pantheon, appropriate for a tournament founded by ancient Greeks) holding festivities.
4:15: The play was based on the greek mythology (Dionysos was their god of wine and festivities), but every "religious" people got offended, because they mismatched it with the christian fairy tales.
it was arranged like the very famous painting (probably the second most famous overall after the mona lisa), not hard to misinterpret, astonishing nobody planning it noticed that...
@@Bioshynthere are a bunch of paintings of feasts from that time with a bunch of people behind a long table. Also, the painting you reference, the one of the last supper, very much wasn't arranged like this, as there was noone on the table, and the food and decor on the table wasn't as lavish, as that wouldn't make sense for the christian last supper. You know what is also well known, directly connected to Olympia through ancient Greece and looks much more like what they did? A dionysian feast.
This might be less recognizable for non-Europeans, but in much of Europe we have both a part of our history education in school reference the ancient Greeks and have quite common references to classical antiquity.
If you compare it side by side there is very little actual resemblance between the olympic opening ceremony and the famous painting of the last supper, except that there are some people behind a long table.
@@silphonym well obviously people took it for a last supper reference
That's EDUCATION for you - everything resembles something you already know: you just know a few christian themed paintings and voila - they ripped their "feast" from there, right?
@@Bioshyn what do you mean "people took it as such"? Just because some people got offended loudly over something they didn't understand that doesn't mean that everyone saw it that way.

The thing with pointing out safety issues like smoke detectors getting you into trouble also happens/happened in the USA.

15:30 That's a speed trap which is not only disguised behind a street sign and a trash can, it is also positioned only inches into a 30km/h zone, meaning it would measure your speed BEFORE you pass the sign and have a chance or indeed obligation to adjust your speed. IIRC they have to be at least 50m behind a sign.
In any case, major dickbag way to position one.

"Abmahnung" is not a simple warning. It's an official warning from the employer which will be noticed in the official personnel file. However, employees have the right to take legal action against such official warnings to the labor court.
But it is weird to give a official warning to a employee because the employee informed the employer about missing legally required smoke detectors.
"Nein Pascal, ich denke nicht" Was für ein Wort! xD

different windows, different uses. But for the love of god, it is surely possible to put all the cool options into ONE type of window?
But noooo, people fight about which one of the not-perfect options is perfect.
In my living room there are 3 windows of the same type. I would prefer one inward-tilted, one outward-tilted for bugs and one slide window to put an AC unit in :)
@@glumpfinice idea
getting a warning because you told your manager there isn't a smoke detector is a very fast way to get damages paid. A warning will have implications for your job, it's kinda like being on probation from then on. That's highly illegal.
So eine Abmahnung hätte doch keinerlei Gültigkeit. Damit kommt kein Arbeitgeber vor Gericht durch. Würde eher das Gegenteil bewirken: es wurde offiziell dokumentiert dass der Chef gegen Regeln verstößt und es auf einen abgesehen hat.
16:35 it's a very dizzy icon. It describes the switch for an external (not diesel motor driven) auxilliary heating source

The problem with this is the discussion about what is a safe distance.
For example, there is a rule for distance between vehicles that depends on speed of travel. The faster the bigger the distance.
But the ADAC has calculated this (i read it in their magazine some 10 to 15 years ago) and it is impossible to do this as there are enough cars
that the whole road system would not suffice for all the traffic.
On the other hand, there are a lot of idiots who think driving 1-2 meters behind you is a smart thing to do.
But that is a human expression of stupidity as bad drivers are a universal truth.
15:36 Someone put that trash can there to sabotage the speed camera. This in combination with Article 20 Section 2 of the German Constitution ("All state authority originates from its people") is pretty much intended as a slight towards the authorities. And if a cop were to reprimand you you could answer by quoting Article 20 Section 4 ("All Germans have the right to resist against anyone seeking to abolish this order")
If course it's hyperbolic and absolutely not how this article was intended , but it's still hilarious.
7:00 Because you couldn’t tilt a swedish window to the outside if there was a screen.

hence why she also commented that "daubnern" (which would be "to daubner", based on her own name) should also be on the list
It wasnt the last supper though, but a olympic feast kinda thingy?
It was a depiction of Dionysus, god of wine and parties
Yes it was a modern inclusive interpretation of the Bacchanalia and hence a reference to the cultural background of the origins of the olympic games. (Although Dionysos/Bacchus was likely one of the inspirations for the figure of Jesus Christ so there is some kind of link.)
The joke with the trashcan and the 30 kilometer speed limit sign (15:08) is about the "Radarfalle" (radar trap) behind the trashcan, a speed measuring device (flash, photography of you license plate...). The lid is opened blocking the camera lens, so power to the people, no longer to the state... ;-) The quote above is from the german constitution (Grundgesetz - roughly translates to something like basic law).

3:39 i was laughing for like 5 minutes, it was so funny and yet so wholesome omfg
actually the window thing would be genious
And Kulli is short for Kugel-schreiber meaning ball-pen
Until someone forgets to close the window and it starts raining, and then blames the manufacturer for the damage. I think, there is a good reason, why they tilt inside and not outside. Making them tilt in both directions would be extremely difficult to implement without sacrificing isolation and security.
Kuli ! Nicht Kulli ! 😠
1:30 The announcement for the vote for the youth word of the year. Langenscheidt is a dictionary publisher (Verlag = publisher (of books, records, ...); in former times also used for the "cottage industry" based on home-based work - the Verlag supplied the workers with raw material and sold then the products) and mostly known for their foreign language dictionaries and phrase books in a yellow cover, including some in thumb-size.
6:50 You can buy window (fly) screens at DIY stores, but most houses come without. The most time it is not a problem, only in summers like this year with alternating wet warm and hot sunny phases. One solution would be to have some spiders sitting in the window and weaving their own natural fly screens... 🙃
15:30 Somebody put the trash can in front of the mobile "speed trap" which was put here to secure all respect the 30 kph speed limit. The flipped open cover however covers only half of the window - I'm not sure therefore if it covers the camera as intended or only the reddish flashlight. (It looks like a trailer-based speed trap model - but it could also be a self-made decoy trap set here by some resident to scare speeders. If it would be a real mobile speed trap, there would be normally some municipal officer nearby to guard it, at least most of the time.)
As a German I had to laugh when he talked about "Selbstbestimmungsgesetz" being the longest name in history. How about "Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz" or "Grundstücksverkehrsgenehmigungszuständigkeitsübertragungsverordnung" ?
15:30 Behind the trash can there is a mobile radar trap, authorities had put there. So if you are speeding, that apparatus should take a picture of your car, and you'll be sent the bill for paying the fee two weeks later. But the lid of the trash can covers the lens...
10:55 Where I live, that bottom house is sadly around 2.5 million €€€
@ 11:00 That's castle Favorite (pronounced the French way) in Ludwigsburg, by the way.
I (like many many many others) have screens on the windows. It's an optional add-on, so people who move here from far away lands might not know that you can buy them in every DIY store and think we don't have them, as their apartment doesn't have any pre-installed.
The short drag intro wasn't a parody of the last supper, but Dionysos and the gods of the Olypm - totally fitting for the Olympic games!

You can also buy fly screens in Germany! There are ones that you can glue inside the window or you can buy some that are on the frame and you put them inside the window are you can buy some that are made at a company and they will put them in for you, but they are very expensive!
So about 30 percent of the houses I've been to have insect screens installed. I personally never do it, because insects don't really bother me and I care too much about my ability to climb on the windowsills or put flowers out and stuff like that. They also ruin the view for me.
A 'warning' is a concept of German employment law and is comparable to an expulsion from school in the broadest sense: If you do something that breaches your employment contract (e.g. frequent lateness, poor performance), do something that could damage your employer or its reputation, or otherwise seriously misbehave at work, the employer can issue an official warning. If the reason for the warning continues to occur, an issued warning can justify extraordinary dismissal and is therefore a legally important event and should be taken seriously as a sign of possible dismissal.
However, employees can also write warnings to the employer if, for example, the salary is not paid or is paid late, which also justifies extraordinary dismissal on the part of the employee.
The more I think about the fold out windows, the more convinced I am.
And screens do exist, but they aren't preinstalled. You have to get them yourselves. You can get them as cheaply as 6€

The official exchange rate between Mark and Euro have never been changed. As it stands, one Mark ist worth two Euros.
Trash cans are not labeled with a registered license plate. Therefore the owner can't be held responsible. Maybe a random bypasser grabbed the can and placed it like that. You can't stop a man if you didn't see him doing it.

Hi, Ryan! Some people in Germany use also an insect screen.
5:15
It's basically a warning for like "disturbing the peace and the workenvironment" by pointing out there's no smoke detectors. Basically the boss being really pissed that someone pointed it out and he technically should do sth. Instead of doing sth, he tries to signal "don't ever point out errors again, fuck you for creating tasks i have to do now, i won't do it though, you shut up"
Ever heard of the phrase:
‚Pyrotechnic ist kein Verbrechen!‘
my dad was already drinking energy drinks when it was still illegal in Germany in the 90s

haha the enrgydrink thing is so real, my mum thinks energy drinks are the devil. But offers me to drink a wine or a beer with her every evening, while I am visiting. I get migraines when I drink alcohol. Energydrinks help lessen the severety of my migraines LUL
The window war 😂😂hahaha . And the most of the german have a screen on the windows. It costs not that much and is easy to install.
Speaking of more than one energy drink a day:
In "Berufsschule" most of my classmates drank at least 2 cans of Red Bull and that was only in the morning!
It had to be expensive too. I know they lived on their own, always complained about how broke they were, but they didn't stop drinking this stuff. They didn't even return their Pfand!
I took the Pfand with me and got out with like 5€ a day.
Caffeine content in energy drinks is a lot higher in other countries, though. So drinking two in Germany is not a big deal at all. You drink multiple cups of coffee a day, don't you? But you shouldn't try that in other countries. I think even in Austria they can have seven times as much caffeine as they can legally have in Germany.
Okay the "dumme Sau" joke was funny!

We have screens, but windows usually dont come pre-equipped with them. So you have to install them yourself and of course there is cost and hassel involved. I've tried it a few times, butnoften, the get holes, get damaged, or the glue doesnt stick that keeps them up (most are taped in) so it's more of a hassle than dealing with a few bugs a year. Its really not the bad in Germany. Depending on where you live, of course. Near a Lake or a Swamp it may be worse.
Also, screens dostirb your view to the outside. And in the dark winters we ge here, they take away some light, so you.would have to de-install and reinstall them each year.
But that being said, if you are a richer German and hate bugs, I am sure you have a permant screen frame that can be inserted into the window frame and taken out, so you can have the nice professional screen in summer and free sight in winter.

15:38 Paragraph 20 line 2 of the German Constitution is a law that states all state power is by the people and the picture below shows a speed camera being covered by a resident’s trash can lid. This is because the camera is so close to the traffic sign that it would register traffic in the area in front of the sign where it doesn’t technically count yet. I think the setup of this camera is illegal in the first place so the also-probably-not-legal covering of an illegally installed traffic camera by someone chancel each other out 😂
