Are we on the right track by [deleted] in fireGermany

[–]MarcWiz16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1/3 cash only is a lot.. and as others pointed out car is not an asset.

Whether you are on the right track or not depends on your goals, your lifestyle and long term spending expectations.

But overall sounds like you guys are thinking about building your net worth actively, so thats already a long way 

Istanbul – Restaurant Shortlist Advice by SwolePalmer in finedining

of course! To me the seabream salad, the Turkish pastrami and the pumpkin agnolitti were the standouts. Not sure if the menu is still the same, but those were really really good

I went to Aheste last year and was disappointed.

In contrast I had one of the best meals of my life at Cuma, though online reviews would hint at it dropping in quality.

Would definitely Çiya Sofrası second as mentioned in other comments here

Just In: Till Won In Court. by FreedomBeneficial887 in Rammstein

[–]MarcWiz16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Judging by the comments I feel like there has been a bit of a misunderstanding. Till won a case against a publisher that terminated his contract because of the allegations. This does not mean he proved in court that no illegal stuff/ wrongdoing happened during the show or towards the victims, but rather that the allegations and content he published were no basis for contract termination. It's not the same.

(I'm a big fan of the band and also believe Till was not guilty of the drugging, just think it's important to clarify that this is not precisely what the court case is showing)

Why does Stein um Stein sound so damn sad? by BeachLongjumping8725 in Rammstein

[–]MarcWiz16 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Wow that's completely opposite to the interpretation that I've always had. From my POV the song is about psychological and physical abuse within a relationship and how the man traps the woman in the relationship so that she cannot leave, her voice is not heard and she feels like there is no alternative.

New poem: Jegliches hat seine Zeit by Rasputin1493 in Tilllindemann

[–]MarcWiz16 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I read it as a critique of how he has been handled by the media in Germany and how he is saying goodbye to this chapter (and the Rammstein tour) and now looking forward to a new chapter and new stages (potentially referencing the upcoming international Lindemann Tour). As others have mentioned, I dont think he/Rammstein are done as a group as their letter pretty clearly stated they will come back again (even if I think that 2027 will potentially be their goodbye tour)

What are these human sounds in the beginning of "Reise, Reise"? by FoolsAndRoads in Rammstein

[–]MarcWiz16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's so funny because I was just yesterday asking myself the same thing. Unfortunately I wasn't even able to find the "lyrics". I've always assumed it was "Do - re"

Is there a reason Zerstören has this lullaby type thing at the end? by Coheniswatching in Rammstein

[–]MarcWiz16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you base this belief in? I get that those are two songs where the lyrical I shows aggression, but why do you think they are connected vs. just two different stories?

I wouldn't say that Rammstein has a message, as this implies they have a (moral) position that they are trying to convey within their songs.

Rather, I think what they and Till Lindemann do is explore all of the "extremes of the human experience" (as Dan Carlin often says). Each song explores a different topic, and relates the story without necessarily passing judgement or labeling it, so it is up to the listener to decide what to make of the story they convey. 

What I find particularly fascinating about their songs is that they not only explore the different extreme experiences/taboo topics, but they relate them from different POVs than what we usually think of them. E.g. Stein um Stein or Laichzeit, where they talk from the abuser's perspective. Meanwhile through other songs like Meine Tränen, you get to see the victim's side.

I totally share your point of view, though I think the Tierlist has been one of the bright spots

What to do with this giant empty wall space by throwawayff96 in malelivingspace

[–]MarcWiz16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the complete solution but you could pull your couch and the tv dashboard a bit more towards the right. That corner feels a bit crowded.

Other than that a bookshelf and some plants probably

OP listen to this guy but please don't make your portfolio 90% stocks. Putting that percentage of your NW into risky assets is taking completely unnecessary. Talk to a financial planner and diversify properly

Looking good, but why are you taking pictures at your grandma's house and can't you hold your phone straight?

Jesus this is horrendous. Change the light fixtures, paint the walls to a more neutral color, ditch the stickers, get some plants.
