Hey guys, here we are again. It's Tuesday again, Drinnie Tuesday. We hope you are
fine and if not, it's okay. It's very clear.
Chris, how are you?
I don't give a shit how I'm doing.
For once, I have to say, I don't really care.
I have an important announcement to make.
It's about the rubric
the friendly memory.
What's going on?
Diana wrote to us.
She has to be reminded of a police request
that she expects this Friday at 9pm on the 26th of July.
She has to be at the police station at 9pm.
And why? Because she committed a crime? No!
She got a letter and it says, or the police wrote,
that Diana allegedly saw something as a witness in a cyber crime.
And Diana says herself that she doesn't know what she could have seen.
Wait a minute. How can you be a witness in a cyber crime?
I don't know either and I would like to advise Diana briefly as a lawyer.
I'm not a lawyer, but everything I would say to the police and nothing else is.
I wasn't, I wasn't.
Come in directly, say I have nothing to do with this.
That was also the defense strategy of Chris Töpper, like in the currywurst man.
Yes, then we have to talk about it too.
We definitely have to talk about this story soon.
I'll be honest, I have to cut out a couple more things.
You've seen it, I've seen it at Goodbye Germany.
The Currywurst Man, a German emigrant to LA,
has been arrested and that's an unbelievable story.
But we'll have to talk about that another time.
We really have to make a big retort.
We have to make a real crime scene.
But now Diana, don't miss it.
This Friday at 9 o'clock
to the police and best of all, quote Heiner Lauterbach.
And please Diana, write me a DM,
write me an email and tell me what it's about,
I'm really interested.
I wouldn't tell anyone, but I have to know
how you can become a witness to a cyber crime.
At ICQ or what?
At Slide of Lama, someone watched it
and made the seven on the top right. The question arises, did you watch Yeah. world in front of me in the train. He sat in front of me and called with his phone and
called a person. I heard all of this because he spoke very loudly. He called the person
and said, yes hello, I'll say Mr Schneider, hello Mr Schneider, you have already sent me
messages on this number several times with very piquant content, so it was about business
things. I just want to tell you that this is not the number of Mr. Walter.
I don't remember his name.
I'm not.
This is my number for a long time.
But then he offered himself and said,
if you could give me some information about Mr. Schneider,
I could try to find out and tell him that you're trying to reach him.
What's that?
He's also a detective, Kalta-Priese, directly.
I'm Julia Laschek for Miss and just a person
who has a foreign phone number
and I would then look for the person?
Yes, he really found it interesting and said,
of course, that's not in my sense
that I see and read the heiklen documents here.
They are not determined by my eyes.
I would take care of the fact that the legal receiver
is contacted and that they can then call him. I would never care of the rightful recipient being contacted and that they can call him.
I would never call him.
I would simply block the number.
Do you remember when we went to Berlin?
First class, yes!
In the ICE.
And then early in the morning with a lot of people from the Bundestag.
Yes, Bundestag, oley!
And then one PDF was opened on laptops
according to another password.
And there was design on it everywhere. And one after the other, password-guided. And there was a design everywhere.
And it was about a F-35 tank bomber.
That was very interesting.
It had a bit of a seat.
And that was the same time as this person who had been
blotting prospects for five hours.
And then people asked, there are people who have to blot prospects.
But that was just a CEO who looked at what was going on in terms of brands.
Where are the great percentages?
Yes, I think it's also great that you can just look at the IC, what weapons Germany is delivering now.
Yes, weapons!
You can look into the Lenovo laptop like that, that's actually pretty cool.
Stop driving with the train, dear Bundestag politicians.
I drove a bus and I do that often and I have experienced an absolute classic.
There was not much going on, happy Risenpust.
There was hardly anyone in the bus, except me and a few other passengers.
And then it came to the point where I had to get out.
The bus station was in front of me, I pushed the button.
The bus driver should have known that it had to stop.
I slowly moved towards the door, but then I noticed that the person was walking through.
The bus won't stop. The person is going through. The bus won't stop.
The bus is going through.
And then I just pretended to be on my own.
I didn't say anything, of course.
I didn't want to leave.
I looked around a bit and then I sat somewhere else.
And then the next stop came, where I thought,
now I have to leave, because otherwise I have to walk back a long way.
I looked around, nobody was ready to get off.
And then I said, well, that was another station.
And then luckily a third group got out and they took measures.
Then I could get in.
And now you live in the slag.
Yes, exactly.
Yes, I know that.
But when we're at Transport Odyssey, I can tell you a really nice joke.
I've experienced a lot again. Maybe now. I've really experienced something.
Maybe in context to the prequel.
Last week we had concert tickets
that we've been looking forward to for months.
We wanted to go to the Wolfpack concert
at the Montreux Jazz Festival at the Genfersee
in French Switzerland.
That's the context.
We wanted to go there, with the train.
And then a scratch on my neck suddenly appeared. Oh, it was Corona.
And that's when I went crazy.
Unfortunately, unfortunately.
And then you were the only one who was looking forward to the concert.
And then you went there alone.
You then said to me,
Oh, what was that for a trip?
I'm going to open a podcast.
And now I'm curious, Julia.
How by a miracle I stayed negative,
even though we share many rooms.
The whole west wing.
The whole west wing and the ranch.
And I decided, okay, I have to go to the concert alone, because I have to go to the concert.
I was so looking forward to it, and then it was clear, I have to take the train, blah blah.
And I have to say, I went to the concert on the same day, with zero very expensive. So I took the first train very early.
And the ride should take about 8 hours, with 3 or 4 turns.
Okay, I thought, I'd be there at around 3 pm.
The concert should be at 3 pm.
That sounds good at first. When should the concert start?
At 3 pm? 3 pm, according to the entrance. That sounds good at first. When should the concert start? At 7pm?
7pm, according to the ticket.
Then I would be back at 11pm, 11pm,
back to the hotel.
That would have been perfect for me.
From the theory,
the run-off was perfectly planned.
Arriving at 6pm,
then picking up the band,
drinking a bit,
freshening up and then off to the concert.
I also think that concerts should always start before 7pm.
At 6pm, 11pm,
then you're back home at 11pm00, you still have something to eat.
The keyword is matinee.
We just want a matinee, otherwise we don't want anything.
Anyway, I was looking forward to this concert, I'm taking the train.
Everything is fine until Mannheim.
Then the unholy takes its course.
I had to get on the ICE and I was sitting there in the ICE.
Everything worked out.
I thought, wow, the trains are all on time.
I have my seat.
It's well tempered.
It was super hot outside, but the air conditioning was perfect.
And suddenly I see in my app, there was no vacuum, nothing on the screen, just in my app,
the train only goes to Basel, then everyone has to get off.
Actually, I would have had to drive to Bern and have to get off there.
But then it started, I have to get off in Basel.
That's a completely normal travel situation with the German Railways.
You have to look for a new train, you have to find a new connection.
Can I still live with it? Because it's not that right now.
Julia, you have to offer more, then I just have to get tired with the shoulder train.
Now you're getting off.
From Basel I drove to Biel and from there I should have gone to Lausanne.
All crazy places that I didn't know before,
I was in French Switzerland at some point,
and then suddenly the accident happened.
I was in a train, and I was in a car with only two other people
who were sitting in my car, and I was sitting quite far in front.
And we were driving through French Switzerland,
and suddenly it started to smell really bad.
But not like someone was pecking an egg, but like burned, like burned rubber.
But within one second it stunk so much that I almost got a respiratory attack.
And I was like, oh shit, what's going on here?
And then it really took four or five seconds and the whole car was full of smoke.
Like in a nightmare.
And I just, I had, in the tunnel view,
grabbed all my stuff,
took my suitcase out of the thing,
and like a little cobalt, I was robbed out of the car.
I ran out of the car,
in another car, backwards.
It smelled like when Florence Hilbert is
at 100,000 lights of the Advent.
Or what's the name of the Advent lights?
Like at Santiano on the stage show in Halle an der Saale.
That's how it was.
The whole balcony was full of smoke.
I ran out because I thought, okay, smoke poisoning,
it's going to be quick, three seconds, then I'm gone, professor.
So I quickly ran, in quotation marks,
I didn't run, let's not do that, I didn't run.
I always think the first time when smoke rises in the air
and I think, oh, oh, oh, smoke poisoning,
I'm not even private, quickly go away.
I definitely didn't run, but I quickly went to another balcony.
And then I thought, now the balcony is going to be a crime.
And that's probably not a good sign.
And that's how it was.
First they came through and said, okay, you all have to stay seated
because it's too dangerous to get up.
And after 10 minutes they came, okay, you all have to leave the train.
Now we were in a small town, in a small station.
It's nowhere, there was exactly one track that was covered,
and we were standing there, and everyone had to get out
in the low heat, and we were sitting at 40 degrees
on the platform, and there weren't enough seats,
and of course the old people had to sit down,
and that's why we were standing around in the low heat,
and this car just went crazy.
And then it started, the fire brigade came with several cars,
they talked, the police came, a huge crowd.
I just thought, shit, the concert, the concert, the concert.
And then it went to the search for the cause.
So they tried to find out why it was smoking here
and they couldn't get a rhyme out of it.
And then a police officer came and turned to us
and made an announcement in French first. And then she tried it came and turned to us and made a statement, in French at first.
And then she tried it in German and said,
yes, we are looking for someone who might have problems with his cell phone or tablet.
And they really don't get any trouble, but please contact us if something was wrong with your cell phone or tablet.
If you may have loaded it.
And then I noticed, okay, the My opinion in that second was... I wasn't, I wasn't... I didn't sign up, because I thought I would have been noticed if something had happened on my phone.
It wasn't, it wasn't.
My problem was that I had to go to the concert. I didn't want to help to clear up the crime.
I wanted to go to the next station so I could arrive on time.
And then we sat there and they told to us, the train is no longer going on and the train that comes after that in an hour can't come either, because the train has to be towed off here first.
That means we would have had to wait at least an hour.
But the thing is, the woman, the policewoman, she spoke French and then she asked, do you all speak French?
Because she herself was not so good at German and that's why she wanted to shorten it and just speak French.
And then she looked at us, big, and asked,
do you all speak French? Do you understand me?
And everyone nodded and I was like, okay, I would be the only one who didn't understand it, so I just didn't say anything.
Did she ask in French?
She asked in French.
But I understood it.
And I didn't dare to say no, I don't understand her.
That was too embarrassing for me at the time.
I'm also in it. I didn't want people to think I'm not French.
What do you want?
That's almost like Germany.
That's why I didn't say anything.
And from there I didn't understand a word.
Absolutely nothing.
And I couldn't have contributed to this crime.
Because I couldn't have explained to the French that I forgot my phone.
So my strategy was to escape.
I wanted to get to the next station quickly.
But you didn't do it because of French, I wouldn't have done it either.
But if you said you were sitting there and nobody else was there with your phone,
and you had plugged in your phone, but there was nothing on your phone, charger and power supply,
then you could have already ruled that out.
Yes, that could have been, but I would have had to be said in French.
You could have actually made it clear that the Swiss train network is not massively affected on that day.
If you had just said briefly, yes, there was nothing here, so you don't have to look for the socket yourself.
I think I actually have made big strides of the Swiss layman on that day.
There was also a little situation where I thought,
oh, now we can escalate on the track.
And it was a boy who was maybe 12 or 13
and he couldn't handle the fact that he had to get out.
He had a little aggression problem
and then he kept repeating,
I want to go to Genf, I want to go to Genf, I want to go to Genf.
And then he suddenly stood up and hit his leg against the train.
And he just kept hitting the train until the police came and said,
hey, a little bit of stress or something.
I don't know, I didn't understand it.
A self-damage or something.
He definitely kept hitting the train and saying,
I want to go to Genf, I want to go to Genf.
Question to Joggerner, lawyer, is it also a matter of injury if I break it?
For example, if you have too little strength.
If I say, now I'm hitting the fence against the window in front of the IC,
but nothing happens?
It's not a matter of injury, nothing broke, except my hand maybe.
Well, anyway, he wanted to go to Genf. I could understand that he was so excited.
I wanted to go somewhere else too.
Well, I want to tell you about my encounter.
I was lucky to have you on my side again.
I was looking for Uber, taxi, whatever, in the taxi apps.
There was no taxi in the whole world.
I was at the station's front square,
and I wanted to say that it was a small parking lot
with zero cars.
It was really on the left, where You could hear the crickets somewhere.
I stood up and breathed in and thought,
okay, you have two options, either you cry now or you don't cry.
But both are the same shit, because nothing will happen here,
you'll have to wait at least an hour and a half.
The problem is, if you have an appointment now
or want to go somewhere, for example to a concert,
and you drive there and you know you can't do it anymore,
it was all forgiven.
Yes, everything.
And turning around is also shit.
You could have said, well, now it's almost time,
now I can go home.
It was all like that.
And in the moment, where I really...
I have internally already concluded that I see the concert,
which really broke my heart.
And in that moment I hear this beautiful sound
from a car driving over gravel.
This peaceful sound.
ASMR in my ears.
I hear the car.
And then there's an old Passat combination
and I see a taxi on top of the car.
And it's just a woman who's still hanging on her phone
while she's driving.
And I'm, you have, I really have to say,
I haven't reallyaced in years,
but that really came racing, that came racing the next...
I thought, before someone else gets on the train,
that's her, the car, I have to be there.
And I asked her directly, are you free, are you free?
And of course she spoke French.
She said, oui, oui, oui.
She still spoke French to me.
I said, all right, I threw my suitcase in
and said, bring me to Neuchâtel.
And she did that too. I think I was in the car for four minutes,, all right, I put my suitcase in and said, bring me to Neuchâtel.
And she did.
I think I was in the car for four minutes,
she drove me to the train station for four minutes,
and it cost 60 francs.
But you know what, that was the appearance of an angel for me.
She was an angel for me.
I just say live and let live.
She was really an angel for me.
And then I had a bad conscience, Chris,
because I thought, okay, there were three more seats in the car.
I should have asked someone if someone would share the taxi with me.
We could have seen the car.
We could have said something.
It shouldn't have been like that.
Not your fault, let it live and let it live.
Let it live and let it live.
You arrived on time for the concert.
I arrived on time for the concert.
I experienced something similar and thought I had a concert myself.
In a big band.
It's important to be there.
You shouldn't miss it. It sucks.
Because sometimes the voices are missing.
But you don't miss it.
If one person misses it, it's not that bad.
Yes, it's possible, but it's a bit stupid.
I played second old saxophone. It's okay, the it's really stupid. I played the second old saxophone,
and it's okay, but the second highest note is missing.
I was in the train, and I saw, fuck, fuck, fuck,
a big chaos, I think there was something with snow or something.
And then I came too late for the soundcheck,
I saw that I couldn't do it anymore,
but then it kept getting delayed.
Then I saw, shit, I can't do it anymore,
not even on time for the concert start. Then I wrote to shit, I can't even make it to the concert on time.
Then I wrote to the people, hey, it's going to be super close.
And then at some point I saw, okay, I would make it so that I would arrive at the back third of the concert.
Suddenly the sound would be mega awesome, the back third.
Then I visualized how that is.
I arrive, have to assemble my my saxophone together, my notes and then on this chair,
where I don't know if it's still free or if they've already put it away, I have to bring the chair and the note pulse on the stage myself.
I visualized that briefly and then I just wrote to the Big Band leader, sorry, that's not enough anymore.
Even if I could have played the last 20 minutes easily. Probably, I said, that's not enough anymore, I'm not turned around.
That was also somehow a success for me, because then I had an evening off.
You also have to know when it's good, right?
You just have to know.
Sometimes it doesn't work out anymore.
Then you have to say, now it's enough, end of story.
End of story, Mickey Mouse.
But you know, we often get upset about the means of transport, about the Deutsche Bahn,
and it's a bit annoying that everyone complains about the Deutsche Bahn and blah blah.
But do you know what's really worse than German railways?
The most annoying means of transport at all?
Rikshas.
And I think that's underrepresented, nobody talks about how annoying rikshas are.
Rikshas are someone on the front of the bike and then a basket trailer in the back where you sit.
I saw that in New York, where we were, in Central Park,
and then they were decorated there.
And then there's a loud Bluetooth box.
Yes, with hits from 2010, Justin Timberlake,
and then loud, deafening music runs,
and then there are flashing light chains
and ugly plastic roses hanging on it.
And then you should have a good time.
Then you should sit in there and someone in front of you is thinking about you, a student,
and you earn something from it.
And he always makes you an entertainer.
That's what annoys me.
Actually, it's a good thing, riding a bike,
but without the annoying part of riding yourself,
which I think is okay.
You're out in the air, you see something,
it's pleasant, also because of the speed,
but then there's this entertainment factor.
They want to lure you, they want to justify it,
that it costs 50 euros to ride a bike from A to B.
Yes, exactly, the price is then also,
and then you are still going somewhere you don't want to go.
And then it's called, buy a pair of leather pockets here with my friend.
And if you come out after half an hour, I'll box you in the shop again.
This is a bad suggestion, I don't think that's true.
But I looked at it and I've never
ridden a rickshaw like that, I have to say.
But I saw it,
you heard things first
when I was in the Sandville Park
because the boombox is so loud,
Justin Timberlake is so loud
that you know, here comes another one.
And then I thought, the same as you,
it's uncomfortable, you let yourself be same as you, it's uncomfortable,
you let yourself be pulled by someone,
it's so decadent and somehow, I can't enjoy it that much.
But then I thought, the person is so annoying,
she screams so much, makes the music so loud,
does she have to scream even louder,
tells jokes that aren't funny.
I heard it, because it was unheard of,
you got it.
Then I thought, the bad conscience would
immediately develop with the annoyance.
Yes, definitely.
I have to say, my father used to...
I think at Lake Tunis he made a carriage ride for tourists.
Back then, when he said,
Tyra has no rights,
he still did that.
And then he sometimes had to explain something
in broken English.
But I think the advantage was there,
there was not loud music that annoyed,
but the horse shit.
Yes.
Yes, so Rixxas is for you now not something that is in common.
You see now rather as a trend.
That's in the gene, that's something from the gene for me.
So Rixxas, no.
It's a no-go for me.
Out of the year.
You give Rixxas a sacrifice.
I show Rixxas the cold shoulder.
Advertising. This podcast is financed by advertising. I'll show Rick Schaas the cold shoulder.
Guys, if you've always wanted to try period underwear, but you're still unsure, then your moment has come, because there's a big sale at The Female Company.
The Period Panties Seamless in Ultra Strong are breathable and durable,
especially for heavy bleeders.
I think they have a very good band name.
You can wear them 8-12 hours without a wet feeling.
The panties are non-toxic, vegan, biodegradable and consist of recycled polyester and organic cotton.
In the Female Company Shop there is currently a sale with up to 50% discount,
but who is still not enough, we also have a free promotion code for them.
With TFC-Drinys10.
There is another 10% on top. Some panties only cost 12 euros.
So go to the shop, the link and all the information you can find in the show notes.
Advertising, end.
Let's go over the really important questions.
We have a section called Drinzider.
Yes.
And there you can send a question, as well as a friendly reminder,
or a friendly reminder to infoatriniis.de
and again to friendly reminders.
You can't remember other people passively or aggressively about something.
I would like to remember my flatmate Judith,
so that they can take out the trash again.
No, no, no, that's not how it works.
You can only remember yourself.
And now comes a really important question.
I'll play the coach and then it comes to knuppelhardt.
Annabelle wrote, and recently she moved out of her parents' house
into her first own apartment. Congratulations!
But she has a lot of things to do,
which she wants to explain and needs a piece of advice.
We'll see how we can get a good advice.
It's about getting in touch with neighbors.
Annabel writes,
the move took several weeks
and I was already there quite often before the final move
to unload all my stuff here.
In all this time, only two of my six new neighbors have been on my way so far.
At one of these two encounters, I was involved in a conversation in the middle of the stairwell,
where the whole life story of the previous tenant was told to me in my apartment
and that everyone had already wondered who would move in there.
I was also informed about the other tenants
in large numbers.
This leaves me with only one conclusion.
They all know each other too well for my taste.
Apparently, they became a small community
because of the relatively small number of people
in the house.
In an approach of extroverted madness,
I also left the remark in the conversation
that I would introduce myself to the rest of the neighbors in the next few days.
Now to my obvious problem. I don't want to introduce myself to people at all.
Since I have already met two of them and one of my conversational neighbors is as good as never in his apartment, only two people would be missing.
For days I hope that I would meet her in the stairwell
and that I could finally unhook her, but unfortunately I can't.
I'm really not interested in making a sound directly to people,
because if I play it through in my head, I unfortunately don't come up with a scenario
in which the conversation, thanks to my lacking small talk skills,
would not drift into a completely embarrassing direction.
At the same time, I am also a small people pleaser
and am concerned that people expect me to come by abdriften würde ein. Gleichzeitig bin ich aber lästigerweise auch ein kleiner People Pleaser und habe Sorge, dass die Leute von mir nun erwarten, dass ich vorbeikomme, um mich vorzustellen und will
sie natürlich nicht enttäuschen.
Jetzt natürlich die Frage, wie kann sie das machen?
Muss sie sich überhaupt vorstellen?
Was sind da die Go's und No Go's?
Wie macht man das am besten als Trini, um einem möglichen Konflikt aus dem Weg zu gehen?
Ich finde die Lösung liegt ganz klar auf der Hand und zwar einfach wieder bei den Eltern
einziehen. I think the solution is clear, and that is to just go back to your parents.
You don't have to imagine your parents anymore.
Hopefully. Depending on the constellation.
Yes, that's an absolute prudence.
I think about your story from the ICA before.
Wouldn't it be smart if you didn't happen to run across the street?
Then you would have to force yourself to run across the street.
Of course, Annabelle can do that all day in the stairwell, as if she's faking it.
With a good impression.
Leave behind a bit of spider webs and stuff.
But that's too tedious.
I would just look, probably everyone at home, usually at night when they sleep,
and then at 3 or 4 in.m. they're doing a fire service.
Where everyone has to leave and then you can imagine each other.
When everyone's outside in their underwear barefoot,
with an insulated blanket in front of the first aid kit.
Exactly, a golden blanket.
Annabelle can already prepare some thermos cans in the evening, bake cakes and stuff.
She's so lucky to have the house storming away completely dressed up, with a comb and shrieking and sporting.
I'll say a marble googly or a nice nut-hair, that always comes with it.
You can shine with that.
And then you broke the ice and you can say,
what's going on there, who was it?
Who was that?
What could be there?
Why does Anna have a tablecloth with her?
Why did you build everything up? Why is there catering?
Yes, a little hot tub,
maybe a rickshaw that drives in when someone has to go somewhere.
Yes, I would suggest that.
Or you could also invite to a party.
Maybe there is a garden.
And then everyone gathers there,
but not to a party.
And then come back to the house when the party is over
and then you meet at the stairwell.
Yes, very good. Not at all.
So you really have to plan the whole party
and also buy things and prepare them.
Maybe that didn't work out with the fire brigade.
You still have a marble Google Hub.
We can also have a good time at lunch.
I think you could also close an ice cream cart
with the bimble and then just steal it
and then just drive in front of the house
with the ice cream until everyone has gathered
and then it's like there's no ice cream, this is a trap.
Sympathetic. Yes.
I would be honest, I think, I know that,
you don't know, you should imagine, I was once in such an anonymous
family house where then somehow, I don't know,
20, 25, maybe even 30 apartments,
I never imagined that.
I never saw anyone there, because I waited
until the stairwell was clear.
Sometimes I wrote down in the basement
to wash my clothes, and I was passed
through aggressively.
I sometimes thought, if I had imagined
that somewhere, that might not have happened.
If you knew who it was, who would block the washing machine all day. I would have thought, if I had introduced myself somewhere, maybe that wouldn't have happened.
If you knew who it was, who was blocking the washing machine all day.
Well, I understand these people.
I think what I would do,
one person is never at home,
but I would still imagine,
there are actually three people, if I understood correctly,
I would write a card and throw it in the mailbox.
Because I think you do well to get along with your neighbors.
Because at some point, in two years, in three years,
the DAL package will be handed over to your neighbors.
And then it gets really embarrassing.
If you've never introduced yourself and never seen yourself...
But Annabelle could also shoot a film.
Maybe also set up a company that makes an image film about her.
Maybe a movie like in the plane,
where they explain where the exits are and how to pull the mask off
and sit on the nose.
Say, hello, I'm Annabelle, this is me, this is my...
That's how I look, that's what I do professionally.
And she could do that with...
There are high-performance beamers now,
you can light up the entire wall. Yeah, right.
The wall across the house,
and in the dark, you light it up,
and then you're really loud,
like a PA in an exhibition,
you're really in there,
everyone's looking out of their windows,
and then you suddenly see Annabelle
in 40 by 40 meters on the wall.
Or you could also order packages for yourself,
but address them incorrectly,
so that they are rejected incorrectly or somehow unclear.
Brilliant.
And then they are rejected by the neighbors
and then, oh yes, good that I finally meet you,
I'm glad.
Thank God.
And it was no wonder,
and I'm so happy about a good neighborhood relationship.
And by the way, I once experienced that I moved in somewhere,
and then I happened to walk across the street.
And then the person said, after I said,
I still have so much to do with the furniture and stuff,
then they offered to help me carry up the furniture and assemble.
And then I realized, that's a gentleman's agreement.
The guy of course suggested it, knowing that you don't take it in.
Some things are part of it, but it's not said.
It's part of it that you don't take things that are offered in.
If I introduce myself somewhere and I say,
if you need help, just ring the bell, no problem.
And then someone really comes to ring my doorbell to take my help.
Absolutely under all circumstances.
Red flag!
The person has died for me.
Red flag!
Yes, that's not possible.
But I have a question for you, Chris.
A controversial question.
I don't want to tell you the exact time frame.
I'll put it this way.
At some point many years ago or even before yesterday, in this period of time,
I got a thank you card from someone who got married.
The person wanted to thank you for the wishes and this and that.
That you put 100 euros into the cash register
and actually invited yourself for your wedding meal.
That you paid for your wedding meal yourself.
Weddings are a funny topic anyway. we can talk about it another time. I got this thank you card and it's common to see photos of weddings in these thank you cards.
Yeah?
Now I have to ask you something, it's a hypothetical question.
Would you rather have a nice wedding day,
a nice wedding day, for one day,
and extremely ugly wedding photos?
Or not so good, I'd say extremely bad wedding for one day,
but extremely awesome photos for eternity?
Yeah, so photos at weddings are, I've also learned,
an essential part of the event's success.
Because a wedding is about the love between two people.
It's not about impressing other people with what you're wearing.
Because your best friend got married two months ago.
That was the worst wedding I've ever seen.
It's about celebrating love.
Exactly. It's not about impressing other people.
That's why photos are so important.
It's about the love of two people,
and that's why you send them to other people without asking.
They should be happy for each other.
And honestly, I'm happy with the people.
Both of them are happy.
Now to your question.
A super good wedding, but bad photos of it?
Or a not so good or bad wedding, but mega awesome photos.
One is for eternity, you can show it to your grandchildren.
The other is only 24 hours.
Of course people would say, I want a wonderful day, it should be the most beautiful day of my life.
What's the point of having only the memories?
What if you have photos that show that it was the best day of your life? My experience is always that people talk about weddings anyway.
Yes, yes, I liked that too.
It was wonderful.
Yes, really.
To touch.
Touching.
Even if the wedding wasn't good, it was talked about nicely afterwards.
And I think it's also about want to live through the memories again,
let's say the wedding was mega sick,
the wedding ring was loaded with a yacht and then loaded into a helicopter,
the helicopter landed, then the wedding ring was presented by the little two-year-old nephew
who rides on the Dalmatian.
If you have bad photos of it, and then you say,
oh, wonderful, this is the most beautiful day of my life,
I want to experience that again.
And then you go through the photo album digitally or haptically,
and the photos are bad.
I think then you break your own memory.
Exactly.
Basically, I would say, like to both no,
so neither wedding nor photos, but that's not the game now.
But if the day was shit, but the photos were so good,
then it's just a question of time. Time works on your side.
Until you believe in the photos.
Until you've seen the photos so many times that you're convinced that it was the best day of your life.
Yes, exactly. You can actually give yourself a new memory.
It's often the case when you remember your own childhood.
Then it's difficult to tell what you really remember
or what are self-made memories of photos.
For example, I thought for a long time
that my first earliest childhood memory
was a visit to the Basler Zoo.
And then I found out shortly
that it's exactly from the pictures I have in my head.
Is there a VHS somewhere?
Exactly, then I threw them in
and then it was exactly the picture I had in my head.
So I must have seen it at some point and then I got so influenced by it.
And then I cheated myself and so you could of course do it with wedding photos.
So make the wedding as minimal as possible, bad, nothing works, the cake doesn't taste,
someone has still got a breakthrough because the cake was in the sun for a while.
But then you get really good photos, then you can cheat even better, including the whole environment.
I'm glad, Christoph, we're on the same level. I'm not being honest, I see it quite clearly.
I love weddings. I love it when you have to fly somewhere.
Wonderful, then you can book tickets, we love doing that for other people.
For the love of two people.
I'll fly there for five hours. Wonderful.
We don't want to be too cynical.
No, it's great.
The weddings last four days, it's great.
I like that.
I think this trend is so cool
that it's now going to the second and third dress,
the wedding dress.
During the day you dress up five times,
once for the ceremony, once for dancing, once for eating,
then once for sleeping, then once again for a white wedding dress and so on.
A very interesting development.
A huge industry.
There's an incredible amount of money being made.
As I said, I have nothing to complain about.
I give the joy to every person on this earth.
And I don't think it's wrong to say, I like it here so much at half past eleven at a wedding,
I'll order a rickshaw right away.
Julia, I have to be honest,
I have to push the brakes a little today.
I notice that Corona is not to be underestimated.
It takes a while until you feel good again,
until I feel good again.
And there is still a lot of discussion about Corona.
There are people who talk about vaccination.
I can only say that I had Corona and it didn't go well for me,
but it went so well that I could open a laptop.
I watched a lot of the Harald Schmidt Show from the 90s,
where I say 50% funny, 50% despicable, sexism, racism
and 50% stolen.
150%!
And I think in the last few years,
Harald Schmidt has focused on the average 50%,
on the people-oriented.
And then I came up with an algorithm,
where we played Bundesliga-companies
for the last two years.
And honestly, if we play such great videos, I can't help but click on them.
I've watched some Bundesliga-companies from the last two years, although I wasn't a football fan.
But you were really sick.
Right. Corona left its mark.
And now I'm FSV Mainz 05 fan.
Why Mainz?
I like it. I played a good season, we came back strong.
I don't know what to say anymore.
Mainz stays Mainz, I say.
Completely random, but I think it's good, because it's like an underdog.
I know no single FSC fan.
What is it? FSC?
I know no Mainz fan.
I know no Mainz fan in the world, that's why I like it, I support it.
I'm glad it's going up again, but now I still have to have a cup of tea for my voice.
See you next week, on Dreni Dienstag, also in the summer.
Yes!
It goes on.
The saga continues.
And let's see if I'm invited to a wedding.
I don't think so.
