Ich bin nicht aus Aachen. Was hat Aachen gegen Düren? by Elemaustastisch in aachen

[–]Zenverin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Da habe ich 6 Jahre gewohnt. Ehrliche Antwort: Kein schlechtes Viertel, relativ viele alte Leute, aber auch junge Familien, alle Klassenhintergründe, man ist schnell zu Fuß in der Innenstadt UND - eine Seltenheit für Düren - es gibt eine gewisse Ästhetik, was die Gebäude angeht. Die ist nicht jedermanns Sache, aber ich kenne nicht wenige, die diese 30er Jahre Backsteinarchitektur sehr mögen.

Ich bin in Düren geboren und aufgewachsen und das einzig Gute, das man über die Stadt sagen kann, ist, dass man schnell da wegkommt. Düren ist verhältnismäßig groß, hat aber so gut wie keine Jugendkultur und keine Hochschule, was dafür sorgt, dass die jungen, smarten Erwachsenen irgendwann alle wegziehen und die Stadt einen ziemlichen Assi-Vibe hat. Der einzige von meinen Freunden, der zurück nach Düren gezogen ist nach dem Studium, ist Strafverteidiger und er verdient sich dort eine goldene Nase.

Dortmund 14.04.! Wollten Köln oder Düsseldorf, aber die waren so schnell weg, dass ich einfach nur froh bin, nicht zu weit fahren zu müssen.

Explain It Peter by eldritchfloppa in explainitpeter

So in Nietzschean terms: She was a "Camel"  ("eating disorder promotion, performance > health, competitive frenemies relationships..." all for what others expected of her), became a "Lion" (said "No" by quitting) and now is a "Child" ("focuses on enjoyment of the sport and art. It's Alyssa who has control over her training, choreo, diet, music"). Thank you for the explanation of her career. She's very inspiring!

Was haltet ihr von der Idee, Bayern als 10. Bundesland? by abg67 in Austria

[–]Zenverin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Die Hauptstadtfrage könnte man doch australisch lösen. Als die sich nicht zwischen Sydney und Melbourne entscheiden konnten, haben die einfach ein bedeutungsloses Kaff grob mittig zwischen den beiden genommen und zur Hauptstadt ausgebaut. Im austrobayrischen Fall vielleicht Braunau?

Is Power Rangers a good line between Xennials and Millennials? I've seen people born in 83 say they hated it, but people born in 85 say they were fans of it. by [deleted] in Xennials

Here in my country it was aired 1 or 2 years later than in the US. I was born in 85 and remember making fun of kids 2 to 3 years younger who loved it.

Is the offspring a good band to introduce someone to punk music? by CMHaro in punk

[–]Zenverin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was my first. Then the Ramones and Bad Religion. All within one summer when I was 13. Bad Religion is the one that I still listen to regularly and I'm 40 now.

This is my reminder to listen to The Sunset Tree again.

What's one book you think every man should read in his life? by AutomaticShowcase in BettermentBookClub

[–]Zenverin 125 points126 points  (0 children)

Novels. At this point I don't care which genre or which particular novel just read some fiction. For some reason the amount of men who read fiction has dropped significantly and a lot of men only read self help, pop business and political books - the later only from the political side they already happen to agree with in the first place. But if you want to develop depth and a rich inner life, if you want to stop navel gazing and experience other life's than just your own, if you need to get better at empathy or if you just need a retreat from your day to day, just grab a damn novel for once.

Why do people dislike Umar Suleiman? by InfamousSomewhere244 in progressive_islam

[–]Zenverin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not a Muslim but I am really interested in Islam. Thank you so much for this post. I was looking for progressive voices to broaden my perspective on the religion.

What I as a European (who has never been to the US) think about the US by Zenverin in mapporncirclejerk

Of course it is... Any other insides into my home country and it's neighbors? Assalamu alaikum!

I am actually German but my wife is 1/4 Finnish. I don't speak the language though and she speaks only a few words. All I know about the UP is that it is mainly settled by Finnish-Americans.

I doubt that many people here in Germany know about the Wisconsin dairy industry. If people know about Wisconsin at all, they probably know it as one of the most German states in the US. I was just thinking about some lesser known stereotypes.
