1:15 Explanation to the Klaffiker meme: So in the old german writing an s looked similar to an f so the word Klassiker becomes Klaffiker (classics to claffics) and thats what the dinosaur would sound like if he would pronounce it with his missing jaw. I hope that helps!
There’s a gigantic Turkish population in Germany. So whenever the Turkish team plays they have a TON of dedicated fans in the country, and the fanbase if considered very loud and some people see them as disrespectful (there were a lot of issues with cars honking through the night, fans whistling during the hymns of other countries, making far right nationalistic gestures etc. so it’s become a big topic during the em.
One nearby Döner place (turkish owned and run) threw the majority of turkish guests out on the day of the game and he was so pissed off by the behaviour, that he gave half price Döner to all others but them that day (which more than one turk very well understood! Just by far not all). He didn't fear backlash, since he's usually very well liked by the community. Anyway, the really sad part is that people like him will be hated on too and I don't even know how to defend that easily, since...such a behaviour makes it somewhat understandable why right wing fckers are on the rise. It doesn't make the brown dmwits any better! But it's hard to ignore that things like that and, even more so, the officials completely ignoring that behaviour, is legitimately a reason to be angry and feel left alone. So, yeah. Thank you, perfect tolerance, to help the right rise once again. 🤦🏻♂️ (Seriously, we NEED to stop the rise of fascism and reality ignoring, we NEED to cement our rights and freedoms and openness, but we also and for that NEED to put our foot down and stop being doormats.)
13:57 Basically, "Ventilator" just means fan in German, so saying you'd die without one just means its bloody hot. But because a ventilator in English is specialized medical equipment to help you breathe, saying you'd die without one means you have serious lung disease or something simular.
9:00 They are "Babymetal", a japanese metal band. They started as kids and misunderstood the typical metal gesture and thought it looks like a fox. The (not entirely serious) "fox religion" then developed around it. Try "gimme chocolate" or the more recent "Ratatata". So, they use the same gesture, but in a harmless, funny way. Another usage of this gesture is the "Schweigefuchs", sometimes used in Kindergarten.
Also fox is kitsune - hence their song title megitsune, which can be translated as michievious fox. Foxes are thought to often be the servants and messengers of the Gods, but not all are friendly. There is also a Japanese Empress 1000 years ago that is rumored to be a fox in human shape. That Babymetal song is about the inward and outside face of women - they always have to smile even if they feel like crying, which could be a connection drawn to that fox shape changing (and of course the concept of honne and tatemae).
And a small add on to the meme with those girls, they are a Japanese band called Babymetal. Their musicians are kalles Kamiband, which basically mean band of foxes, so that sign they are doing is a reference to a fox. For anyone interested they combine Japanese pop with some of the havyest metal I have seen
@@dorianschafer7484 "Kami" means god, "kitsune" would be fox. But I know it's a fox they're trying to symbolize. It's basically the same as the "Schweigefuchs" ("silence fox") in Germany which some teachers use as a sign for the pupils to be quiet. So context is important!
I'm one of the 7 people who was born in Berlin and still lives here... like 2 years ago... i saw someone tied to the bikerack infront of Rewe on a dog leash dressed in a full latex gimp suit with mask on waiting for his master to come out of Rewe in the middle of the day and nobody bat an eye
No fckin way. I saw such a guy, in front of a supermarket, when I last visited Berlin and I THINK it was 2 years-ish ago? Same dude, different time, or...😂
Context matters when you use symbols. If kpop stars use it for some photos, it is something else than a Turkish player at European Cup who shows the symbol of a Turkish radical rightwing gang that is partially banned in Europe.
@@frankj10000 It doesn't change the message, but thanks for the info. I am sure they as well don't show that sign for the reasaon the Turkish player Demiral did.
@@StefanC123 Baby Metal makes the fox/kitsune sign for their fox god, that has zero connections to the grey wolfes.That gesture seem to have several very different meanings, and Kitsune and the grey wolfes are just two of them.
A little something about the "proof the bike was stolen": I ordered two melon plants online about three months ago. One of them was damaged beyond salvation during transport. I made a picture and wrote a complaint. About two months later I receive an email which contained the part: "After checking your case, a return won't be necessary". Yeah, no shit. There's no way in hell I could send back a plant that died two months ago... *laughs* I mean, who even THOUGHT about that?
Crumple zone. It's less about protecting you from being crushed and more about absorbing kinetic energy from the impact through deformable vehicle areas. The problem with vehicles like the Cybertruck and other SUVs is that they have a very rigid frame, which hardly deforms at all in a collision and therefore the impact is not slowed down and the passengers are exposed to a higher kinetic energy.
And what's the meme about? I thought the left part is about the heat and the right part is refering how you would die in a gas chamber without ventilation. Or did I go too dark?
@@hurtigheinz3790 You went slightly too dark. When a German complains about not having a "Ventilator" (a fan), they're complaining about the heat, when an American complains about not having a "ventilator" (the medical device), they're probably dying
@@hurtigheinz3790 definitely too dark. "ventilator" in english is referring to specialized medical equipment to help patients with breathing if they aren't able to on their own. So a german saying "Ohne meinen Ventilator würde ich sterben" is referring to 30°c, but an American saying "I would die without my ventilator" wohld be talking about actually suffocating from a serious lung condition.
14:00 there's been a newspaper article recently where a tourist insisted to pay after each beer ordered, paying with his card. The owner of the establishment had him removed by the police after the guest didn't want to leave. The discussion is ongoing as to what is the backgroud to this. The owner claims high rates for processing card payments, while others point out he most likely only has a shitty service contract for his payment processing service. Whilst true, there's much cheaper options as of as recent as 2 years ago, some people argue that the old prejudice is still valid that owners of entertainment venues prefer payment in cash as to process only a set amount of money 'through the books'.
13:44 This plays with the different meaning of "Ventilator" in German and Englisch. When a German says "Without a 'Ventilator' I would die." it simply means "I can't bear the heat and need my fan." The English one literally means "I'll choke to death without the aid of a medical ventilator machine." It's the same with "Gift". The English word means present, the German means poison. Or "Public Viewing". In Germany it means showing the broadcast of a sport event in a public space and most Germans have no idea that in some regions of the English speaking world the same term refers to a wake or an open casket funeral.
1:13 The issue here is that this old German font says "Klassiker" (classics), but people who can't read it think it says "Klaffiker" which isn't a word
Almost. You forgot that if you pronounce a word with a double F instead of a double S, it sounds like you have a huge overbite or no teeth at all. Hence the picture of the dinosaur without a lower jaw.
8:55 explanation: you probably know by now that the "Wolf Salute" is mostly used by turkish rightwing extremists. The girls are Baby Metal, a japanese Band. They have kind of a fantasy background of being sent by the Fox God and they´ve changed the well known "devil horns" used in the metal scene to the symbol of the fox god, which unfortunately has a strong resemblance to the Wolf Salute ... I doubt they even know :)
12:55 In Germany the sales tax is already included in the price shown on the product label. It's 19% on most goods and 7% on everyday need goods like groceries (and some luxury providers that made good "lobby work" - to not use the C-word - like ski lift fees or art sales).
@@lukakaps9548 Calm down, my friend. My comment was not meant for my German speaking fellows who certainly know as much about German grammar as I do, but rather for Ryan himself (should he ever take the time to actually read the comments).
@@frankj10000 He will never read the comments, and is just as incompetent as he was years ago. As someone who makes australian, european and german videos for a living, I would at least expect that he learns something, but he's still not able to identify Scholz or to read/pronounce sentences somewhat right.
8:40 Werwolf (which I assume this is about) is a game commonly played in german classes if no one knows what else to do (totally true). A select few take the roles of werewolfs, the rest is mostly citizens with a few special roles. The wolfs need to eradicate everyone not aligned to them. A phase of the game is accusing others of being a werewolf. That was what this meme (probably) refers to
@@frankj10000 Hmm... Werwolf was around before. And you dont play it on PC. You sit in a Chair circle and then all players close their eyes and the roles that can will do their actions after another (of course without getting to know who the other roles are). And often times also a lot of narrative involved. Especially in the public executions :)
OK, regarding the whole Turkey thing: Turkey played against Austria this week and won. However, the guy who scored the winning goals showed a gesture which is associated with a Turkish right wing nationalist extremist group and when he was called out for it, he claimed he didn't mean it that way but then didn't distance himself from that group, either. Iirc it got him banned from participating in the next game. On Saturday evening, the Turks then lost to the Netherlands in the quarter finale of the European Championship, meaning they're out.
@@AdamMPick Actually, it doesn't. Intent matters. It's a sign of oppression to argue that context is more important than intent, because it ignores what was meant to say instead of what was understood.
@@Finsternis.. That may be true, but in this context, the intent is pretty clear. It is *not* a greeting to all the babymetal fans in the stadium, and it's clearly not the "Schweigefuchs".
1:53 - this announces that a "red card" has been drawn, a penalty for a violent foul, causing a player to leave the match immediately, without a substitute 10:45 - in the German Sports channel DSF, when there was no scheduled programme, they broadcasted fake rip-off raffles (causing expensive phone bills) with seemingly easy questions, but the hidden answers were often heavily constructed. To motivate the scammed callers (who pay for every call but rarely get a chance to even get passed through into the studio), the moderator yells and rips his hair out about how easy this task is. In this meme: The moderator is looking for the name of a bird with 3 letters, and 2 of these letters are a "U" (Spoiler: *UHU* is the answer) 13:05 - Pizza: Quattro Stagioni = Four Seasons; Endstation = final station of a train/tram/bus (please leave the contest, you are out) 14:42 - when the "top seats" in the game turn out not to be so top because the roof drainage is misplanned and the rain pours down onto your seats because the pipe overflows
Regarding the Klaffiker: There's a somewhat archaic letter in old German (also in English, but I think it stuck around for longer in German) called the long s. The long s was the letter you'd use to write s unless it stood at the beginning of a word (there's also a bumch of other exceptions where you would just use a regular lower case s, but I'm not gonna go into it all). It looks a bit like a lower case f. So it's actually not Klaffiker, it's Klassiker ("classics") but because it looks like an f, people tend to read it that way, and if you read s as f, it sounds like you got some kind of lisp or other speech impairment, so the joke is that "Klaffiker" is how that dinosaur muppet would read it because it's missing its lower jaw, making it incapable of pronouncing the letter s.
The meme with the 2U bird.... That was a television quiz show, where you can call an expensive number to win money. The moderator shows something on the board. A Bird (Name) with 3 letters, 2 times U. The right answer is Uhu. In englisch its an eagle owl so far i know.
@@LG555 That was all just a show. The callers were some employees or so. The goal was, many people should call the number to pay a lot of money, and got nothing back.
The movie with Littlefoot is called "in einem Land vor unserer Zeit" in Germany. It was my absolut favorite movie when I was a child. And I still love it❤
I feel like a bit has been lost in football over the last 20 years or so. Back then we had humans at the edge of the field checking for offside, 4 defenders was rare, and liberos were still seen. No wonder Rehagel won with Greece back in 2004. In a way he played "outdated football" and was extremely successful, because he could sort of break through all the same, ultra defensive setups.
My uncle born and raised in Pescara Italy read your comment and is out to get you buddy.. That's a disgusting mass produced piece of cardboard.. Go to Google earth and check any pizza restaurants Page in a town with less than 20k people. That's authentic Italian pizza. If there's tourist or any foreigner involved ed they can't make authentic pizza and that in the clip was a 4€ frozen pizza that gives you massive heartburn because the cherry tomatoes are way too acidic.... it's like taking noodles and slapping some craft cheese on top, microwave for 1 minute stir and call it authentic Mac'N'Cheese
6:00 Explanation of the Lecker Bierchen meme: Delicious Beer would be Leckeres Bier in german but Lecker Bierchen was like a funny meme way to say it, so it was ones funny but not anymore.
Yes the trains look good but what good do they do if they're always late or get cancelled out of thin air? Imagine travelling by train to another city several hours away or to another country and you're on your way back and suddenly your train got cancelled. This happened to me and my mom when we were on our way back from Switzerland. We were completely stranded and had to take several different trains to get back home
14:06 it's about card-payment. Because of the fees (in this example 3,20€) for card-payment. Some merchants don't like customer who is paying with card, because they get less profit, because of the fees for card-paying-transactions or digital payments, so they would like to bann those customers. That's why cash is king in many small businesses.
The loss versus spain was little unfair, you gonna have to take a look at the scene where spain( number 24) touched the ball with his hand and no penalty was given!😅
13:38 As you can see from your translation, the left and right side aren't translated properly. The German word "Ventilator" (fan) does not have the same meaning as the english word "ventilator" (the thing that breathes for you). That's why you have the "if you don't know - if you know" meme under it.
11:01 It's about a call-in quiz show at night time TV which was mostly a scam. They waited extremely long to put people through and often let people with wrong answers through first to give the impression "Everyone else is an idiot. You're a genius because only you have the answer. So call us now for only 5 bucks per minute. *including the time you spend on hold" The German meme with the 9live host going crazy after realising "Habicht" has two H (they asked for animals with only one H in the name) is an example for such shows. By the way, the 3 letter bird with two U is "Uhu" - an eagle owl.
16 Bier with card.... The man from Latvia bought 16 single beers and payed each single one with card. He was refused being served after that and he called the police. 3,20 EUR is for the transaction, 20 cents for each one. Which is 20 cent less profit for the bar. And it would have been less if he had payed all beer together.
Yeah. The story is that one guest was being a complete dick about his payment, causing extreme processing fees. So they banned him. Which may or may not have been justified, depending on the minutiae of the proceedings.
@@MrHodoAstartes He wasn't being a dick, he was a foreigner who didn't know how it works. In lots of countries it's common to pay a drink immediately and there are no processing fees. Nobody told him to actually stop before calling the police on him
@@DonDadda45in Latvia, shops PREFER digital payments. He did what is considered normal and polite behavior in his home country. Nobody warned him that Germany is still in the digital dark ages. A lot of people in Eastern European countries grew up with this image of Germany being a much better and more advanced country than their own. And nobody noticed that by now, many Eastern European countries are much more modern than Germany. Especially the Baltic countries are super digital and have been for a decade. Ukraine went very digital as well, especially since 2019, when Zelenskyy was voted in. He probably took one look at the Baltics and decided his country needs some of that, then went ahead and made the young guy who had helped to run his social media campaign the minister of digital transformation. Mr. Fedorov is only 33 or so.
In fact, the story was somewhat different from what was reported in the press. The waitress, who also speaks Russian, told him after the 10th beer that he couldn't have any more because he was totaly drunk. The Latvian himself then called the police and claimed he wasn't being served because he spoke Russian. The pub owner only mentioned the EC card thing while speaking to the police, but that wasn't the reason for the argument.
@@DonDadda45 he was drunk af and they explained it to him for sure. it was also the second day he did this. the last order was after they closed the register and cash was the only option.
14:45min It was raining cats and dogs during the match and at one point it had to be stopped due to the thunder and lightning being right above the stadion. -> Mario sitting in rain.
memes about Turkey: Turkish supporters celebrate victory by driving their cars honking loudly. But here in the netherlands, the Dutch fans topped that when they beat turkey.
14:30min Some foreign footbal fan drank 13 beers (impressive on its own!) in a German bar and paid every single one induvidualy after receiving it. The owner complained about the credit card charging fees adding up and threw him out. Made the national news.
12:43 … according to the canteen lady at work the fees are less than 1 Euro per transaction and they’re calculated in with the contract they have with the company I work for.
We have many people with turkish migration history in Germany. They party very visibly and audibly when their team wins. The wolf salute is a thing of an extrem-far-right turkish group.
I live in Berlin and had long hair when I was younger. When I once visited a thermal spa in Brandenburg I heard someone say "Oh, a long-haired bomb dropper" :D Something like that never happened to me in Berlin, but happened within a few hours in Brandenburg
@@glumpfior maybe, just maybe, you would have heard the same everywhere else, but in Berlin? 😂 ps same happened to me in southern and western Germany 😉
@@MrX-nv8kpno???? Most of Germany literally doesn't give one single f about you having long hair or not. Cuz it kinda is nothing odd to see as some men run with Jesus hair around
6:45 Since there are so many Turks and people of Turkish descent in Germany, a final (or even semi-final) between Germany and Turkey taking place in Germany would have been very exciting. The meme was obviously created before the two teams were eliminated in the quarter-finals.
1:52 It’s a red card, basically there is a yellow card and red card, kinda functions like the traffic lights 😂 Yellow card- take it a bit slow, you did smt wrong, go sit on the bench Red card- your second time doing smt wrong, you cannot play the entire game anymore (I think it was like that)
If 2cm off-side doesn't count, then where should the line be drawn? 3cm? But the margin between 2cm and 3cm is too small, the system can't be that precise and a cm shouldn't matter, let's allow 4cm? But the margin between 3cm and 4cm is too small, the system can't be that precise and a cm shouldn't matter, let's allow 5cm? Off-side is off-side, the rule is clear and that's the only way to deal with it because everything else would just introduce even more confusion and complaints.
@@HenryLoenwind And how should that be decided? By calculating each players center of mass or average position? Not only would that be even more confusing, but people would still be arguing about +/- 1 cm. As it is, every body part that can be used to play the ball counts and that includes the tip of the shoe. Can't get much simpler than that.
@@Mindcrawler23 the measuring should be as accurate as the employed methods allow. Back in the day we just had people at the edge of the field to check. So if they were a bit further forwards or a bit further back, the decision might be inaccurate, but still following to what they saw. Now with cameras and stuff we can basically measure if a player's shoestring is too far forward...
A kilometer is 1000 meters... or in American about 250 alligators :P or about 2/3 of a mile. 11:24 While the actual German word for owl is Eule, it is also very commonly refered to as Uhu. 13:55 A cross-lanuage meme I would say. The German word for fan is the same as the English word for a medical ventilator (though the latter is not called a Ventilator in German). The bread is a word joke, they two are just one letter and a blank space apart, and the d and t are even quite close in pronounciation. Beleg.tes Brot Beleg des Brot (though technically Beleg des Brotes would be correct)
Upvote to help with his meme education: 1:13 classics, but the t-rex isn't able to pronounce it so it becomes claffics. the font above has the letter s looking life an f (or an l for the translation app) 4:24 the wolfs salute appearently is a ultra nationalistic, ultra-right salute for the turks, wich even most of them despice. Didn't know it either before tho 6:10 "Lecker Bierchen" was a somewhat funny meme for a few weeks this year, referencing it as the comfy option mostly I guess. Bierchen is the diminutive of Bier (but I suppose you got that) 8:10 Werwölfe vom Düsterwald is a nice little card game, absolutly recommend. And kudos for translating PdS yourself 9:00 Baby Metal is a J-Metal band, they were at Rock am Ring in Germany this year and did a collab with german artists. 10:20 yes, it's regarded as a cultaral treasure here. And if someone got a different opionion, he's either too young and ignorant, or just in the wrong 11:20 reference to the dsf meme where a moderator goes completely bonkers over an easy game and the few callers they let throw don't get it right. Btw: Uhu (an owl) 13:35 because it's the DB, the frickin Deutsche Bahn, almost always too late, and sometimes, like 15% of the time, your train jsut won't come. While the EM multiple teams wanted to travel by train, but had to choose short distance flights because of the DB, it's really bad 13:50 because a fan is just nice to have and a ventilator is something you need in intensive care units? 14:20 no idea on this one 14:50 great seats 15:05 lol, the translation just left out Späti, wich is a store that opens until it's really late in the night (spät) 15:35 just a silly play of words, I deem it not funny Learning German with memes seems to be actually fun
For all the turkish winning memes: The turks like to celebrate... celebrate hard... after every game there run to there cars and drive arround until like 2 AM and Honking there car horns and driving in big collums with music and flags everywhere... so people got pieses about it because its just to much...😂
15:19 "Belegtes Brot" und "Beleg des Brot" sound just the same. Although the latter is grammatically incorrect. It should be "Beleg des Brotes" because the article "des" implies it's genitive. Translated literally it says "bread's receipt". Most Germans shy from using the genitive though and would rather say "Beleg von dem Brot" which is "receipt of the bread".
8:20 there was a time when a lot of formula from German brands was resold in China to the new emerging middle class... at rather steep prices; which is why many stores still limit the number of boxes you can buy at once; at the time this limit resulted both in people driving from store to store to buy the formula whenever they restocked but also in more theft of formula than ever before
10:45 I am wondering if there are some clips that you might react to; it is about a call in quiz show; the questions were incredibly easy like in this example; the solution is the German name of the Eurasian eagle owl, the "Uhu"; a (name of a) bird with 2 u and 3 letters in total; the hosts were pretending like nobody called in, when in fact you had to call an expensive telphone number and then "hit the right line" to be able to win... they also had lots of fake callers who gave wrong answers and fake callers who fake won; it was a real sh!te show from start to finish... and there were several stations who did this either at night or as the post suggests even half a day because they didn't have better content; DSF stands for Deutsches Sport Fernsehen and they were supposedly broadcasting sport events etc.
13:00 we also have sales tax tagged on but we do not do it secretly; and as I keep pointing out the arguments in the US are not logical; also: usually the store owners and "Gastwirte" complaining about the card payment fees are using the solution of their "Hausbank" instead of comparing different offers;
14:20 this is about that Latvian dued and the Bavarian "Gastwirt"; the press hyped that up after the police PR statement went public and had later rolled back... kinda; it still looks bad for the patronif you ask me so a Latvian tourist goes into a Bavarian bar; in the original statement police were called by the barkeeper due to an argument witht he tourist about him excessively using card payment; apparently he had ordered 16 beer over the course of the night and paid each on its own by card... which annoyed the barkeeper due to the fees... it was rather unclear who started a fight or why the police was called in the first place; the barkeeper seemed kinda dumb for doing any of that and people asked why he had a 20% fee in the first place the next day, many outlets tried to rectify that image; the patron explained that the tourist had been the second night at his place spending heavily and the issue only arose after he had already did the till/cashed up for the till that allowed card payment... not sure how else to ranslate the issue; in German "hatte er die Abrechnung für die Kartenzahlung gemacht"; he did not refuse to sell more beer to the tourist but asked him to pay in cash for the rest of the evening; the tourist got angry, left, returned, got angry some more, and called the plice because he was "discriminated against by getting refused to pay with his card instead of cash" oddly enough it became evident that 20% was not the maximum but the minimum fee, which only increased the questions about why he didn't choose a competitor; the barkeeper also claimed that the fee wasn't a topic witht he police yet the police did know how much that fee was!? it sounds unreliable at best; people now asked why he closed the till (or what you want to call it) without calling last rounds or at least explaining the situation to the one guest who would obviously want to use his card again if he drank more beers; overall the barkeeper didn't improve his standing with the public at all with having that rectification done
The whole over 10€ to pay with card has pretty much gone. I've paid sub € with card just fine. And the train meme is about getting to the station and seeing the train rolling. So it's already departing. You missed your train by like 10 seconds.
My new challenge: With every new meme I look down from the screen, listen to Ryan's reading and check if I understood it just from his pronunciation :D
Eventually he gets the pronunciation right. He has shown that he has no issue correctly repeating stuff after hearing it first, so the only barrier now is the pronounciation of some letters like J or the not-silent e and the end.
Dieser Kommentarbereich ist hiermit Eigentum der Deutschland GmbH. like Ryan's video and support his channel i love him ^^ and i like how he sees germany from a different perspective ^^
At 8:20 it is not about stealing food FROM a baby but stealing food FOR your baby in a store, because you cannot afford it. And no one will denunciate someone who has to steal to feed their baby!
Even more, a belegtes Brot can also just be a slice of bread with something ontop, no need for a second slice. So open sandwiches are also belegte Brote, but hamburgers not, they would be at best a belegtes Brötchen.
4:13 The wolf salute is a hand gesture used by the so called Grey Wolfes (bozkurtlar). They are a group of extreme supporters of two far right Turkish parties and their members have killed hundreds of people in the past 50 years. One member even tried to assasinate pope John Paul II. in 1981. The sign resembles a wolf's head with middle and ring finger pointing forward touching the thumb - resembling the mouth - and index finger and pinky pointing upwards resembling the ears. In Germany it's only illegal to show that sign when the person also openly sympasizes with the Grey Wolfes and their ideology. In that case it's a felony under article 86 and 86a of the German Criminal Code - distribution of progaganda and symbols of unconstitutional and terrorist organisations. One of the reasons it's not illegal in all cases is that there's an identical gesture which was used by German elementary school teachers for some time called "der Schweigefuchs" (the silence fox) meaning "Shut your mouth and open your ears." It's also very similar to the metal scene "devil horns" sign, hilariously called the "Pommesgabel" (french fries fork) in Germany.
a Guy in Germany bought 16 Beers over the evening and payed every singel Beer direct when he got it wit his EC Card. If he had waited till he leaves and payed them all at once the coast for Ec transactons would have been 20 Cent. Cause he payed every SINGEL Beer at once whwn he got it the Barkeeper had to pay 20 cent each time for every of the 16 Beers .... And that made him go bezerk^^ And he kicked him out of the BAR! Pretty pencious if you ask me....others would say....yeah thats typical german^^
The only problem is that the story was actually different from what was initially reported in the media. It wasn't 20 cents per transaction, but 0.2 percent. And it wasn't about 16 beers paid for individually, but about one last beer that should be paid with cash, because the card terminal had already finished billing for the day.
There are so many memes about turkey and germany, because in germany are many turkish people. I think they are the biggest minority/migrant group in Germany. Germans, correct me if I'm wrong. The meme witht he guy that couldnt sleep at night when Turkey won, is funny because with so many people it is a big loud party in many parts of Germany

One nearby Döner place (turkish owned and run) threw the majority of turkish guests out on the day of the game and he was so pissed off by the behaviour, that he gave half price Döner to all others but them that day (which more than one turk very well understood! Just by far not all).
He didn't fear backlash, since he's usually very well liked by the community.
Anyway, the really sad part is that people like him will be hated on too and I don't even know how to defend that easily, since...such a behaviour makes it somewhat understandable why right wing fckers are on the rise.
It doesn't make the brown dmwits any better! But it's hard to ignore that things like that and, even more so, the officials completely ignoring that behaviour, is legitimately a reason to be angry and feel left alone.
So, yeah. Thank you, perfect tolerance, to help the right rise once again. 🤦🏻♂️
(Seriously, we NEED to stop the rise of fascism and reality ignoring, we NEED to cement our rights and freedoms and openness, but we also and for that NEED to put our foot down and stop being doormats.)
@@Coolgamer400 Just shows what mindset you have, buddy
@@ngotemna8875 and the mindset is?
@@Coolgamer400 a left one but the joke is good
13:57 Basically, "Ventilator" just means fan in German, so saying you'd die without one just means its bloody hot.
But because a ventilator in English is specialized medical equipment to help you breathe, saying you'd die without one means you have serious lung disease or something simular.
danke! den hatte ich nämlich auch nicht verstanden 🙂
🎶 Du bist ein Ven-ti-la-tor! (Die Orsons)
9:00 They are "Babymetal", a japanese metal band. They started as kids and misunderstood the typical metal gesture and thought it looks like a fox. The (not entirely serious) "fox religion" then developed around it. Try "gimme chocolate" or the more recent "Ratatata". So, they use the same gesture, but in a harmless, funny way. Another usage of this gesture is the "Schweigefuchs", sometimes used in Kindergarten.
Also fox is kitsune - hence their song title megitsune, which can be translated as michievious fox. Foxes are thought to often be the servants and messengers of the Gods, but not all are friendly. There is also a Japanese Empress 1000 years ago that is rumored to be a fox in human shape.
That Babymetal song is about the inward and outside face of women - they always have to smile even if they feel like crying, which could be a connection drawn to that fox shape changing (and of course the concept of honne and tatemae).
Or in primary school
Wrestling fans are also familiar with the gesture in a very inoffensive way.
Watch Eclectric Callboy, best German thing sense Beer.
well, it is always context that matters with these kind of things.
The "wolf salute" is basically the Turkish version of a nazi salute. Different organisation, same meaning.
I totally agree, but what does it have to do with the video'?
sorry, my bad I have different tabs open with different youtube videos. Got mixed up with my tabs.
@@MoAnWoe Because Ryan was wondering about the wolf salute and what it means.
And a small add on to the meme with those girls, they are a Japanese band called Babymetal. Their musicians are kalles Kamiband, which basically mean band of foxes, so that sign they are doing is a reference to a fox. For anyone interested they combine Japanese pop with some of the havyest metal I have seen
@@dorianschafer7484 "Kami" means god, "kitsune" would be fox. But I know it's a fox they're trying to symbolize. It's basically the same as the "Schweigefuchs" ("silence fox") in Germany which some teachers use as a sign for the pupils to be quiet. So context is important!
13:55 It's about asthma, Germans call fan's ventilators, while in the US a ventilator is asthma spray!
The "what the fuck is a kilometer!?" sped up really got me
I'm one of the 7 people who was born in Berlin and still lives here... like 2 years ago... i saw someone tied to the bikerack infront of Rewe on a dog leash dressed in a full latex gimp suit with mask on waiting for his master to come out of Rewe in the middle of the day and nobody bat an eye
Did the poor thing at least have some dog friends for company while waiting outside? *laughs*
Klingt ganz nach Berlin
No fckin way.
I saw such a guy, in front of a supermarket, when I last visited Berlin and I THINK it was 2 years-ish ago?
Same dude, different time, or...😂
Context matters when you use symbols. If kpop stars use it for some photos, it is something else than a Turkish player at European Cup who shows the symbol of a Turkish radical rightwing gang that is partially banned in Europe.
It's Babymetal (Japanese heavy metal girl group).
@@frankj10000 It doesn't change the message, but thanks for the info. I am sure they as well don't show that sign for the reasaon the Turkish player Demiral did.
@@StefanC123 Baby Metal makes the fox/kitsune sign for their fox god, that has zero connections to the grey wolfes.That gesture seem to have several very different meanings, and Kitsune and the grey wolfes are just two of them.
Muss mal ganz doof fragen: Ist das nicht auch der Leisefuchs aus dem Kindergarten?
@@juwen7908 Ja, ist es. Und rate mal, worüber einige Kreise jetzt (mal wieder) anfangen zu diskutieren ...
A little something about the "proof the bike was stolen": I ordered two melon plants online about three months ago. One of them was damaged beyond salvation during transport. I made a picture and wrote a complaint. About two months later I receive an email which contained the part: "After checking your case, a return won't be necessary".
Yeah, no shit. There's no way in hell I could send back a plant that died two months ago... *laughs*
I mean, who even THOUGHT about that?
Crumple zone. It's less about protecting you from being crushed and more about absorbing kinetic energy from the impact through deformable vehicle areas. The problem with vehicles like the Cybertruck and other SUVs is that they have a very rigid frame, which hardly deforms at all in a collision and therefore the impact is not slowed down and the passengers are exposed to a higher kinetic energy.
13:50 The German word for fan ("Ventilator") is the same as ventilator in English
And what's the meme about? I thought the left part is about the heat and the right part is refering how you would die in a gas chamber without ventilation. Or did I go too dark?
@@hurtigheinz3790 You went slightly too dark. When a German complains about not having a "Ventilator" (a fan), they're complaining about the heat, when an American complains about not having a "ventilator" (the medical device), they're probably dying
@@hurtigheinz3790 No, a ventilator/respirator helps you breathing in the hospital ...
@@hurtigheinz3790 definitely too dark. "ventilator" in english is referring to specialized medical equipment to help patients with breathing if they aren't able to on their own. So a german saying "Ohne meinen Ventilator würde ich sterben" is referring to 30°c, but an American saying "I would die without my ventilator" wohld be talking about actually suffocating from a serious lung condition.
14:00 there's been a newspaper article recently where a tourist insisted to pay after each beer ordered, paying with his card. The owner of the establishment had him removed by the police after the guest didn't want to leave.
The discussion is ongoing as to what is the backgroud to this. The owner claims high rates for processing card payments, while others point out he most likely only has a shitty service contract for his payment processing service. Whilst true, there's much cheaper options as of as recent as 2 years ago, some people argue that the old prejudice is still valid that owners of entertainment venues prefer payment in cash as to process only a set amount of money 'through the books'.
Wasn't there a clarification that the tourist called the police after he got banned by the owner (and not the other way around)?
13:44 This plays with the different meaning of "Ventilator" in German and Englisch. When a German says "Without a 'Ventilator' I would die." it simply means "I can't bear the heat and need my fan." The English one literally means "I'll choke to death without the aid of a medical ventilator machine."
It's the same with "Gift". The English word means present, the German means poison.
Or "Public Viewing". In Germany it means showing the broadcast of a sport event in a public space and most Germans have no idea that in some regions of the English speaking world the same term refers to a wake or an open casket funeral.
1:13 The issue here is that this old German font says "Klassiker" (classics), but people who can't read it think it says "Klaffiker" which isn't a word
Almost. You forgot that if you pronounce a word with a double F instead of a double S, it sounds like you have a huge overbite or no teeth at all. Hence the picture of the dinosaur without a lower jaw.
Bro will never know what a mei mei is.😂
8:55 explanation: you probably know by now that the "Wolf Salute" is mostly used by turkish rightwing extremists. The girls are Baby Metal, a japanese Band. They have kind of a fantasy background of being sent by the Fox God and they´ve changed the well known "devil horns" used in the metal scene to the symbol of the fox god, which unfortunately has a strong resemblance to the Wolf Salute ... I doubt they even know :)
12:55 In Germany the sales tax is already included in the price shown on the product label. It's 19% on most goods and 7% on everyday need goods like groceries (and some luxury providers that made good "lobby work" - to not use the C-word - like ski lift fees or art sales).
The ski lift one makes me so irrationally mad...(The other exemptions are bad too. But that one...)
@@lethfuil it becomes super weird when you compare stuff like juice and milk or fresh tomatoes and canned tomatoes.

As someone who makes australian, european and german videos for a living, I would at least expect that he learns something, but he's still not able to identify Scholz or to read/pronounce sentences somewhat right.
8:40 Werwolf (which I assume this is about) is a game commonly played in german classes if no one knows what else to do (totally true). A select few take the roles of werewolfs, the rest is mostly citizens with a few special roles. The wolfs need to eradicate everyone not aligned to them. A phase of the game is accusing others of being a werewolf. That was what this meme (probably) refers to
So, basically "Among Us".
@@frankj10000 Hmm... Werwolf was around before. And you dont play it on PC. You sit in a Chair circle and then all players close their eyes and the roles that can will do their actions after another (of course without getting to know who the other roles are). And often times also a lot of narrative involved. Especially in the public executions :)

Littlefoot❤❤yes,we did watch it in Germany. It is called ,,In einem Land vor unserer Zeit"( in a Land before Our time) I loved it
OK, regarding the whole Turkey thing: Turkey played against Austria this week and won.
However, the guy who scored the winning goals showed a gesture which is associated with a Turkish right wing nationalist extremist group and when he was called out for it, he claimed he didn't mean it that way but then didn't distance himself from that group, either.
Iirc it got him banned from participating in the next game.
On Saturday evening, the Turks then lost to the Netherlands in the quarter finale of the European Championship, meaning they're out.
4:24 it's a Symbol of a nationalistic turkish gang/clan
It's also a greeting among Babymetal fans.
@@Finsternis.. That one is a fox. Just as the german silent fox. Context matters.
@@AdamMPick Actually, it doesn't. Intent matters. It's a sign of oppression to argue that context is more important than intent, because it ignores what was meant to say instead of what was understood.
@@Finsternis.. Soooo... you're saying Demiral was trying to silence the fans' excitement about the goal? Interesting...
@@Finsternis.. That may be true, but in this context, the intent is pretty clear. It is *not* a greeting to all the babymetal fans in the stadium, and it's clearly not the "Schweigefuchs".
1:53 - this announces that a "red card" has been drawn, a penalty for a violent foul, causing a player to leave the match immediately, without a substitute
10:45 - in the German Sports channel DSF, when there was no scheduled programme, they broadcasted fake rip-off raffles (causing expensive phone bills) with seemingly easy questions, but the hidden answers were often heavily constructed. To motivate the scammed callers (who pay for every call but rarely get a chance to even get passed through into the studio), the moderator yells and rips his hair out about how easy this task is. In this meme: The moderator is looking for the name of a bird with 3 letters, and 2 of these letters are a "U" (Spoiler: *UHU* is the answer)
13:05 - Pizza: Quattro Stagioni = Four Seasons; Endstation = final station of a train/tram/bus (please leave the contest, you are out)
14:42 - when the "top seats" in the game turn out not to be so top because the roof drainage is misplanned and the rain pours down onto your seats because the pipe overflows
Many ppl watched "The land before time" in germany and everyone I know loved it. I acutally still do
and i love it when u try to say german words or even sentences. i love u Ryan and i hope there are mor people like u in the world
Regarding the Klaffiker: There's a somewhat archaic letter in old German (also in English, but I think it stuck around for longer in German) called the long s.
The long s was the letter you'd use to write s unless it stood at the beginning of a word (there's also a bumch of other exceptions where you would just use a regular lower case s, but I'm not gonna go into it all).
It looks a bit like a lower case f. So it's actually not Klaffiker, it's Klassiker ("classics") but because it looks like an f, people tend to read it that way, and if you read s as f, it sounds like you got some kind of lisp or other speech impairment, so the joke is that "Klaffiker" is how that dinosaur muppet would read it because it's missing its lower jaw, making it incapable of pronouncing the letter s.
Small correction: you use the long s everywhere except at the *end* of the word, not the start.
The meme with the 2U bird....
That was a television quiz show, where you can call an expensive number to win money. The moderator shows something on the board.
A Bird (Name) with 3 letters, 2 times U. The right answer is Uhu. In englisch its an eagle owl so far i know.
This meme was so accurate. I laughed so much.
Seeing the moderator just have a breakdowm because of some wrong answers is the best. Like
HABICHT HAT ZWEI H!!!
@@LG555 That was all just a show. The callers were some employees or so. The goal was, many people should call the number to pay a lot of money, and got nothing back.
13:50 is an English reference. Ventilator in English is also what you need if you can’t breathe.
The movie with Littlefoot is called "in einem Land vor unserer Zeit" in Germany. It was my absolut favorite movie when I was a child. And I still love it❤

I feel like a bit has been lost in football over the last 20 years or so. Back then we had humans at the edge of the field checking for offside, 4 defenders was rare, and liberos were still seen.
No wonder Rehagel won with Greece back in 2004. In a way he played "outdated football" and was extremely successful, because he could sort of break through all the same, ultra defensive setups.
12:08 "That's why I don't recycle! /j"

My uncle born and raised in Pescara Italy read your comment and is out to get you buddy..
That's a disgusting mass produced piece of cardboard..
Go to Google earth and check any pizza restaurants Page in a town with less than 20k people. That's authentic Italian pizza. If there's tourist or any foreigner involved ed they can't make authentic pizza and that in the clip was a 4€ frozen pizza that gives you massive heartburn because the cherry tomatoes are way too acidic.... it's like taking noodles and slapping some craft cheese on top, microwave for 1 minute stir and call it authentic Mac'N'Cheese
6:00 Explanation of the Lecker Bierchen meme: Delicious Beer would be Leckeres Bier in german but Lecker Bierchen was like a funny meme way to say it, so it was ones funny but not anymore.
Also mei mei (or Sometimes mich mich) means just meme

Yes the trains look good but what good do they do if they're always late or get cancelled out of thin air?
Imagine travelling by train to another city several hours away or to another country and you're on your way back and suddenly your train got cancelled. This happened to me and my mom when we were on our way back from Switzerland. We were completely stranded and had to take several different trains to get back home
Awesome to see you on the german memes :)
"Without the crumble zone YOU're gonna be tge crumble zone" perfectly describes it. 😂
I really am worried about the audience interaction numbers of Ryan, if he ever finds a translator that works. What will the audience comment on?
14:06 it's about card-payment. Because of the fees (in this example 3,20€) for card-payment.
Some merchants don't like customer who is paying with card, because they get less profit, because of the fees for card-paying-transactions or digital payments, so they would like to bann those customers. That's why cash is king in many small businesses.
Thanks for wishing for a phenomenal weekend on monday 🙂
The loss versus spain was little unfair, you gonna have to take a look at the scene where spain( number 24) touched the ball with his hand and no penalty was given!😅
It was not unfair, it was exactly as the UEFA said in beforehand how such situation will be handled.
13:38 As you can see from your translation, the left and right side aren't translated properly. The German word "Ventilator" (fan) does not have the same meaning as the english word "ventilator" (the thing that breathes for you). That's why you have the "if you don't know - if you know" meme under it.
4:50 thats jack. so not auxburg but jacksonville
You reading german:
German: 🙃???
Chinese: what a nice Mandarin!
11:01 It's about a call-in quiz show at night time TV which was mostly a scam. They waited extremely long to put people through and often let people with wrong answers through first to give the impression "Everyone else is an idiot. You're a genius because only you have the answer. So call us now for only 5 bucks per minute. *including the time you spend on hold"
The German meme with the 9live host going crazy after realising "Habicht" has two H (they asked for animals with only one H in the name) is an example for such shows.
By the way, the 3 letter bird with two U is "Uhu" - an eagle owl.
16 Bier with card....
The man from Latvia bought 16 single beers and payed each single one with card.
He was refused being served after that and he called the police.
3,20 EUR is for the transaction, 20 cents for each one.
Which is 20 cent less profit for the bar. And it would have been less if he had payed all beer together.
Yeah. The story is that one guest was being a complete dick about his payment, causing extreme processing fees.
So they banned him.
Which may or may not have been justified, depending on the minutiae of the proceedings.
@@MrHodoAstartes He wasn't being a dick, he was a foreigner who didn't know how it works. In lots of countries it's common to pay a drink immediately and there are no processing fees. Nobody told him to actually stop before calling the police on him
@@DonDadda45in Latvia, shops PREFER digital payments. He did what is considered normal and polite behavior in his home country. Nobody warned him that Germany is still in the digital dark ages.
A lot of people in Eastern European countries grew up with this image of Germany being a much better and more advanced country than their own. And nobody noticed that by now, many Eastern European countries are much more modern than Germany. Especially the Baltic countries are super digital and have been for a decade. Ukraine went very digital as well, especially since 2019, when Zelenskyy was voted in. He probably took one look at the Baltics and decided his country needs some of that, then went ahead and made the young guy who had helped to run his social media campaign the minister of digital transformation. Mr. Fedorov is only 33 or so.
In fact, the story was somewhat different from what was reported in the press. The waitress, who also speaks Russian, told him after the 10th beer that he couldn't have any more because he was totaly drunk. The Latvian himself then called the police and claimed he wasn't being served because he spoke Russian. The pub owner only mentioned the EC card thing while speaking to the police, but that wasn't the reason for the argument.
@@DonDadda45 he was drunk af and they explained it to him for sure. it was also the second day he did this. the last order was after they closed the register and cash was the only option.

memes about Turkey: Turkish supporters celebrate victory by driving their cars honking loudly. But here in the netherlands, the Dutch fans topped that when they beat turkey.
11:10 I think there is a word missing. It should say "I'm going crazy over here".
14:30min Some foreign footbal fan drank 13 beers (impressive on its own!) in a German bar and paid every single one induvidualy after receiving it. The owner complained about the credit card charging fees adding up and threw him out. Made the national news.

12:43 … according to the canteen lady at work the fees are less than 1 Euro per transaction and they’re calculated in with the contract they have with the company I work for.
Your German is not that bad! Impressive.
15:34 the confusion comes from the fact those they're both pretty much pronounced the same way.

The wolf salute is a thing of an extrem-far-right turkish group.
The first meme shows how weird Brandenburgers are.

6:45 Since there are so many Turks and people of Turkish descent in Germany, a final (or even semi-final) between Germany and Turkey taking place in Germany would have been very exciting.
The meme was obviously created before the two teams were eliminated in the quarter-finals.
The automatic subtitles are top notch.😂
1:52 It’s a red card, basically there is a yellow card and red card, kinda functions like the traffic lights 😂

Okay but what the fuck. I'm seriously impressed with the font. Didn't know you could do that.
If 2cm off-side doesn't count, then where should the line be drawn? 3cm?
But the margin between 2cm and 3cm is too small, the system can't be that precise and a cm shouldn't matter, let's allow 4cm?
But the margin between 3cm and 4cm is too small, the system can't be that precise and a cm shouldn't matter, let's allow 5cm?
Off-side is off-side, the rule is clear and that's the only way to deal with it because everything else would just introduce even more confusion and complaints.
I'd say most people don't care about measuring where the tip of some shoe is, they care about where the person is...
@@HenryLoenwind And how should that be decided? By calculating each players center of mass or average position? Not only would that be even more confusing, but people would still be arguing about +/- 1 cm.
As it is, every body part that can be used to play the ball counts and that includes the tip of the shoe. Can't get much simpler than that.
@@Mindcrawler23 the measuring should be as accurate as the employed methods allow. Back in the day we just had people at the edge of the field to check. So if they were a bit further forwards or a bit further back, the decision might be inaccurate, but still following to what they saw.
Now with cameras and stuff we can basically measure if a player's shoestring is too far forward...
15:24 if you say "Belegtes Brot", it sonds exactly like "Beleg des Brot"
A kilometer is 1000 meters... or in American about 250 alligators :P
or about 2/3 of a mile.
11:24 While the actual German word for owl is Eule, it is also very commonly refered to as Uhu.
13:55 A cross-lanuage meme I would say. The German word for fan is the same as the English word for a medical ventilator (though the latter is not called a Ventilator in German).
The bread is a word joke, they two are just one letter and a blank space apart, and the d and t are even quite close in pronounciation.
Beleg.tes Brot
Beleg des Brot (though technically Beleg des Brotes would be correct)
15:44 Doesn´t work in translation. It´s spoken nearly same in german, but after translation there is no commonality.

1:13 classics, but the t-rex isn't able to pronounce it so it becomes claffics. the font above has the letter s looking life an f (or an l for the translation app)

6:10 "Lecker Bierchen" was a somewhat funny meme for a few weeks this year, referencing it as the comfy option mostly I guess. Bierchen is the diminutive of Bier (but I suppose you got that)
8:10 Werwölfe vom Düsterwald is a nice little card game, absolutly recommend. And kudos for translating PdS yourself
9:00 Baby Metal is a J-Metal band, they were at Rock am Ring in Germany this year and did a collab with german artists.
10:20 yes, it's regarded as a cultaral treasure here. And if someone got a different opionion, he's either too young and ignorant, or just in the wrong
11:20 reference to the dsf meme where a moderator goes completely bonkers over an easy game and the few callers they let throw don't get it right. Btw: Uhu (an owl)
13:35 because it's the DB, the frickin Deutsche Bahn, almost always too late, and sometimes, like 15% of the time, your train jsut won't come. While the EM multiple teams wanted to travel by train, but had to choose short distance flights because of the DB, it's really bad
13:50 because a fan is just nice to have and a ventilator is something you need in intensive care units?
14:20 no idea on this one
14:50 great seats
15:05 lol, the translation just left out Späti, wich is a store that opens until it's really late in the night (spät)

Youre german are very good! Respect! ❤
Your pronunciation is very nice ❤
15:19 "Belegtes Brot" und "Beleg des Brot" sound just the same. Although the latter is grammatically incorrect. It should be "Beleg des Brotes" because the article "des" implies it's genitive. Translated literally it says "bread's receipt".
Most Germans shy from using the genitive though and would rather say "Beleg von dem Brot" which is "receipt of the bread".
15:39 In German it is similar to e.g. danger of confusion: Throne and Thrown
german tüf and the sybertruck are best friends 😂😂😂
We have the same thing with earthworms, but also with slugs
8:20 there was a time when a lot of formula from German brands was resold in China to the new emerging middle class... at rather steep prices; which is why many stores still limit the number of boxes you can buy at once; at the time this limit resulted both in people driving from store to store to buy the formula whenever they restocked but also in more theft of formula than ever before
10:45 I am wondering if there are some clips that you might react to;
it is about a call in quiz show; the questions were incredibly easy like in this example; the solution is the German name of the Eurasian eagle owl, the "Uhu"; a (name of a) bird with 2 u and 3 letters in total; the hosts were pretending like nobody called in, when in fact you had to call an expensive telphone number and then "hit the right line" to be able to win... they also had lots of fake callers who gave wrong answers and fake callers who fake won; it was a real sh!te show from start to finish... and there were several stations who did this either at night or as the post suggests even half a day because they didn't have better content; DSF stands for Deutsches Sport Fernsehen and they were supposedly broadcasting sport events etc.
13:00 we also have sales tax tagged on but we do not do it secretly; and as I keep pointing out the arguments in the US are not logical;
also: usually the store owners and "Gastwirte" complaining about the card payment fees are using the solution of their "Hausbank" instead of comparing different offers;
14:20 this is about that Latvian dued and the Bavarian "Gastwirt"; the press hyped that up after the police PR statement went public and had later rolled back... kinda; it still looks bad for the patronif you ask me
so a Latvian tourist goes into a Bavarian bar; in the original statement police were called by the barkeeper due to an argument witht he tourist about him excessively using card payment; apparently he had ordered 16 beer over the course of the night and paid each on its own by card... which annoyed the barkeeper due to the fees... it was rather unclear who started a fight or why the police was called in the first place; the barkeeper seemed kinda dumb for doing any of that and people asked why he had a 20% fee in the first place
the next day, many outlets tried to rectify that image; the patron explained that the tourist had been the second night at his place spending heavily and the issue only arose after he had already did the till/cashed up for the till that allowed card payment... not sure how else to ranslate the issue; in German "hatte er die Abrechnung für die Kartenzahlung gemacht"; he did not refuse to sell more beer to the tourist but asked him to pay in cash for the rest of the evening; the tourist got angry, left, returned, got angry some more, and called the plice because he was "discriminated against by getting refused to pay with his card instead of cash"
oddly enough it became evident that 20% was not the maximum but the minimum fee, which only increased the questions about why he didn't choose a competitor;
the barkeeper also claimed that the fee wasn't a topic witht he police yet the police did know how much that fee was!?
it sounds unreliable at best; people now asked why he closed the till (or what you want to call it) without calling last rounds or at least explaining the situation to the one guest who would obviously want to use his card again if he drank more beers; overall the barkeeper didn't improve his standing with the public at all with having that rectification done
@@michaelklaus Considering countries like Luxemburg manage to get their tax done on their own, there is no excuse in the US.
The whole over 10€ to pay with card has pretty much gone. I've paid sub € with card just fine.
And the train meme is about getting to the station and seeing the train rolling. So it's already departing. You missed your train by like 10 seconds.
You obviously don't speak german, but you are the first american I heard say the ä right
Most game controllers, laptops and even MacBooks have still Aux 😂
Slowly but surely seeing his German pronounciation improve video by video is great
1. meme: versteht keiner, muss ein insider sein
2.bis letztes meme: da habe ich bereits ausgeschaltet
du hast aber auch immer Pech damit...
My new challenge: With every new meme I look down from the screen, listen to Ryan's reading and check if I understood it just from his pronunciation :D
Eventually he gets the pronunciation right. He has shown that he has no issue correctly repeating stuff after hearing it first, so the only barrier now is the pronounciation of some letters like J or the not-silent e and the end.
Dieser Kommentarbereich ist hiermit Eigentum der Deutschland GmbH. like Ryan's video and support his channel i love him ^^ and i like how he sees germany from a different perspective ^^
There used to be the saying, "punctual like the train.", nowadays, only 51% of the German trains are punctual. :.(
Those numbers seem doctored...
1:12 I love memes with this dinosaur 😂
Thats Littlefoot❤
At 8:20 it is not about stealing food FROM a baby but stealing food FOR your baby in a store, because you cannot afford it. And no one will denunciate someone who has to steal to feed their baby!
He got that one. He said he wouldn't take that (stolen) food away from the baby by reporting it.
Joke's on them. I don't need a baby to eat that stuff.
I mean, Claus Hipp swears on his name that the stuff is good.
1:10min In old German script the "s" and "f" looked very similar. So it says "Klassiker", but the "mentally challenged" dinosaur says "Klaffiker".
Don't know if the mistake was caused by autocorrect or a misunderstanding, but the dino is dentally challenged, not mentally.
@@AV-we6wo Nice one! :)
12:00... So true.
13:35... Because the bastard's always late.
Belegtes Brot means bread with filling ,Beleg also means the receipt or check in US terms !
So you might confuse the two terms .
Even more, a belegtes Brot can also just be a slice of bread with something ontop, no need for a second slice. So open sandwiches are also belegte Brote, but hamburgers not, they would be at best a belegtes Brötchen.
4:13 The wolf salute is a hand gesture used by the so called Grey Wolfes (bozkurtlar). They are a group of extreme supporters of two far right Turkish parties and their members have killed hundreds of people in the past 50 years. One member even tried to assasinate pope John Paul II. in 1981.
The sign resembles a wolf's head with middle and ring finger pointing forward touching the thumb - resembling the mouth - and index finger and pinky pointing upwards resembling the ears.
In Germany it's only illegal to show that sign when the person also openly sympasizes with the Grey Wolfes and their ideology. In that case it's a felony under article 86 and 86a of the German Criminal Code - distribution of progaganda and symbols of unconstitutional and terrorist organisations.
One of the reasons it's not illegal in all cases is that there's an identical gesture which was used by German elementary school teachers for some time called "der Schweigefuchs" (the silence fox) meaning "Shut your mouth and open your ears." It's also very similar to the metal scene "devil horns" sign, hilariously called the "Pommesgabel" (french fries fork) in Germany.
Ryan. For German pronunciation: pronounce the last vocal.
Eine - ay nuh
The sleepless night after the turkish victory is because the turkish people will be celebrating very loudly the whole night😂
a Guy in Germany bought 16 Beers over the evening and payed every singel Beer direct when he got it wit his EC Card. If he had waited till he leaves and payed them all at once the coast for Ec transactons would have been 20 Cent. Cause he payed every SINGEL Beer at once whwn he got it the Barkeeper had to pay 20 cent each time for every of the 16 Beers .... And that made him go bezerk^^ And he kicked him out of the BAR! Pretty pencious if you ask me....others would say....yeah thats typical german^^
The only problem is that the story was actually different from what was initially reported in the media. It wasn't 20 cents per transaction, but 0.2 percent. And it wasn't about 16 beers paid for individually, but about one last beer that should be paid with cash, because the card terminal had already finished billing for the day.
There are so many memes about turkey and germany, because in germany are many turkish people. I think they are the biggest minority/migrant group in Germany. Germans, correct me if I'm wrong. The meme witht he guy that couldnt sleep at night when Turkey won, is funny because with so many people it is a big loud party in many parts of Germany
