Endlich Freizeit!

Geschmacklos? Lustig? Ob das dem Steinmeier passt?

The Rust Bucket

Das ist tatsächlich mal eine Rostlaube.

Update: Wie mir auf Twitter von @timbooooo gesteckt wurde, hat das eine eigene Website und es wurde schon bei Spiegel Online darüber berichtet.

3=5!!

(Found in Bremen.)

• Who needs 500 g of coffee a week?
• Who needs 35 liters of beer a month?
• Who needs 35 kg of chocolate?
• And who needs a live long supply of Aachener Pflümli?

Pennys Geburtstagsprospekt

They also advertise that you can win

Autos!
Autos!
Autos!
Autos!**

Strangely, all other prizes are listed with an exact number, but nowhere in the prospectus does it say how may cars can be won. The two stars (**) don’t have an explanation anywhere. The only two stars are on the left, but I don’t think the cars cost “max. 0,50 €/SMS”.

The fun doesn’t stop here. They obviously can’t spell “Freundlichkeit”. <joke>So, is it unknown to them?</joke>

But the best thing about the prospectus is that they reserve their right to pay off the prizes in money. The customer doesn’t have the right to choose. Thus “35 kg of chocolate” is just a fancy way of saying “you can win less than 200 €”.

Update (2008-09-28): Yesterday, we received version a new version of the prospectus described above. The advertised products have changed, but the things you can win have stayed the same. The only improvement I found was a change from “**” to “¹” at the “Autos, Autos, Autos, Autos”.

Thus, they also want to pay off the cars, cars, cars, cars in money rather than as real cars.

The Lightspeed Subway

Unfortunately, the U-Bahn and S-Bahn aren’t always so fast they don’t take any time at all.

The Active Speaker System. Let’s hope the german word for “ace” is meant.

Machinenschnitt? Orlochstechen? Orringe?
(Excuse the quality, but it was night.)

With this new kind of DVDs the size has been reduced drastically.
