It’s as if we are living in a shitty system that incentivizes and rewards shitty behavior. Making the higher ups more diverse will not lead to less assholes, it will just give us a more diverse cast of assholes.

Yeah I don’t get the hate either. This livery is baller!

I love that colorful bikes and bike wear are making a comeback. During the aughts and 10's everybody went black or grey or something very subdued and boring and overly serious. Now, more and more companies are going the fun route. Cannondales new design update for instance looks like something straight from the 90's!

The Virage had Scirocco II lights for crying out loud.

Well at least the back of the car looks somewhat good, in a weird 90s supercar kind of way. The Virage on the other hand had VW Scirocco II back-lights.

Having said that, it looks like a cheap charter airline that gets overweight, pale Brits to places far away so they can misbehave. Kinda perfect in that regard.

Manu?

Plus, it feels like we’re currently living in Amazon Prime Year so who cares...

Until now I had no idea what an Erin Condren is, but I started preplaning my days in advance during the lockdown, because I was going fucking crazy and became supremely unproductive, not to mention unhappy. Honestly, shit‘s been a revelation yo! Why hasn‘t anybody told me about this before? It does take a lot of…

My father had a green VW Beetle convertible with a white canopy top. Apart from looking gorgeous in this color combination, the car had another thing going for it: My father put a 356 engine with an output of a whooping 75hp in the back of the car which turned it into a relatively quick Beetle. He eventually traded…

I don’t see how anything you wrote negates what I said. I agree with a lot of your points and I can imagine that somebody somewhere down the line noticed that for a split second letters appeared that, if shuffled around enough, would form an ethnic slur... or the German word for rain (Regen). But yeah, try bringing…

It is not enough for the rich to just be rich and unburdened by the travails of life that us regular people have to endure. They also want to be loved and need constant reminder how great they are. 

But that’s like saying that raising your index finger to signal “One” is not okay to use anymore, because the idiots from ISIS used it as well in their photos. 

As a Berliner, I am genuinely interested in your experience. We have a huge Jewish/ Russian-Jewish / Israeli community, not to mention a lot of Polish people or people of Polish descent in the city. And while anti-semitism from right wing and muslim groups is again on the rise unfortunately, I have never heard about a…

Yeah, the matte paint is too much for me. But the rest looks pretty damn good actually. 

It is offensive and confusing. I have no idea what it‘s trying to evoke, but it‘s clear that a lot of people at VW fucked up.

The whole thing can very well be described with tone-deafness, lack of education and lack of sensitivity. You are probably right, that there was no black person involved in the ad (except from the dude who gets shoved into the bar), then again we don’t have a significant black population in our country (about 1%), if…

I mean you say that they wouldn‘t have used lethal force in response to a minor infraction, but the reason people are protesting is specifically because the police have used lethal force in response to a minor infraction in the past.
