They're very stupid, but my recent guilty pleasure for a cheap laugh? Those "thug life" videos on youtube.  Especially the animal ones.

Fucking immigrants refusing to learn the language of their new country!  :mad:



Jefferson City had a German news paper from 1866 to 1928.

Cincinnati had like 5 at one time but I think the last one shut down in 1919.  There is still a local radio station that broadcasts in German on Sundays and Old St. Mary's Church downtown does one of the Sunday masses in German.

Yeah everything in Austin used to be in German and English.  In fact everything from gunfighting gangs to whorehouses used to be divided into 'black, white, German'.  Of course it all ended around 1918 like it did in most places.

Eurovision would be more interesting if it only came around every 4 years, like the World Cup.

The German qualification was funny. This song won by a huge margin:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiX0RSZBQfE

After he was pronounced winner, he took the mic and rejected the victory, handing it to the second placed, saying, "I'm only a little singer."

I hadn't followed him before, but it appears all he wants to do is sing and be on stage. He has no interest in the business, publicity or marketing malarky that surrounds it. Apparently he realized at the last moment what participating in ESC would mean (he avoided all interviews before the qualification event and supposedly ran a high fever) for him (i.e. being constantly in the spotlight).

Going to be a pity when it's bought by a Gulf State sheikh using it as a summer cottage and a place to park his horses.  And the orgies, of course.
