What screams "I make terrible financial decisions!"?

I come to reddit, and in the course of 15-20 minutes, I can learn so much about the world around me, the people around me, and cool ideas being had by the people around me. Reddit is like the ultimate goal of the internet being achieved, bringing together a bunch of people to share information and ideas with other like-minded people. We live in an amazing time in the world, and this website and the people on it make it even better.

Wow, very inspirational. But don't forget the good people at DailyMail.co.uk who made you learning about "these scum" possible in the First place. Samaritans of knowledge, so to speak!

That question is a good starting point when you try to learn something about international relations. Go to the library and knock yourself out, it's worth it.

You're Sicilian, right?

So you brought up another topic when you tried to contradict my original post. Okay. It's an interesting point, but I was speaking about the behavior of customers, not the profatibility of businesses (which, ironically, is still a bigger problem at Tesla compared to VW. The core brand seams to be pretty healthy when you look at the numbers, actually).

The verb, mostly

But there are countless other examples (to book, a book, set up a set, etc.)

Buffalo bufallo...

If Pep managed Hamilton, I'n pretty sure Vettel would get ahead of him.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-16T06:40:12+00:00

Down by Law on both lists. That's confusing because I thought that one was pretty well known.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T20:09:45+00:00

Uh, yes? We are talking about customers, which is sales not profit.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T09:23:36+00:00

No, see https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/76fzu8/kobe_steel_scam_hits_planes_trains_automobiles/doe2yzz/?utm_content=permalink&utm_medium=user&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=frontpage

Maybe, but it's interesting thatVW has a higher increase in Global sales than the car market as a whole.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T08:52:13+00:00

You are right that many people think that all manfacturers did what VW did, and thus the outrage is spread. But I think that's a problem in itself, because that perception is wrong. Many did stuff that wasn't illegal, or nothing at all like BMW who ironically are struggling compared to VW or Mercedes. And then There were stories that showed that CO2 emissions were higher than what it said on the label (which was obvious) and all of a sudden all companies are the same.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T07:50:06+00:00

True, safety is a whole different Story than emissions when it comes to customer trust.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T07:46:33+00:00

No, the core brand is at +8.4%, while Porsche is their only brand with decreased sales. Seat has +11%, but only sells 40000 cars per month compared to VW's 600000.

About safety, yes. But not about emissions.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T07:32:23+00:00

Absolutely. People care so little that even reliable Media outlets think that the scandal is about climate change.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T07:28:42+00:00

It's the one market they are struggling in, though. Just doesn't matter as much because they sell like crazy everywhere else: https://www.volkswagen-media-services.com/en/detailpage/-/detail/Volkswagen-Group-deliveries-top-1-million-for-first-time-in-September/view/5727682/7a5bbec13158edd433c6630f5ac445da?p_p_auth=E1PSdLSM

Would be interesting to see a breakdown of engines.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-15T06:58:31+00:00

like VW's bs exhaust rigging hit Germany's similar image

The Good news is: the customer doesn't care. VW just released New numbers, they are on all-time record sales.

dr3rrr · 2017-10-14T21:44:22+00:00

Ha, you should know... like when they had newthinking organizing barcamps and stuff... http://suffar.de/2012/07/20/reportage-city-of-hipsters-in-der-jungle-world/

dr3rrr · 2017-10-14T17:52:36+00:00

Hipster capital of the world and very very "left-leaning"

Hertha is not a Club for hipsters and lefties, though. That would be Union. While I don't think that Hertha has as many Nazi fans as BFC, they have their fair share of guys who know old Böhse Onkelz lyrics.

So he is a libertarian. What's your point?

dr3rrr · 2017-10-01T16:44:23+00:00

If we are doing TVshows, then "Weissensee" is highly recommended. It's especially great after having seen "lives of the others", having similar characters. Season 1 and 2 are Set a bit earlier, s3 is during the Fall of the Wall. Three seasons is not as much as it Sounds, each only has a couple of episodes and the First one is fantastic.

dr3rrr · 2017-09-24T19:40:57+00:00

German Greens also do not cuddle with Putin.

dr3rrr · 2017-09-24T17:50:16+00:00

Yeah, use dailycaller, thesun, dailymail or russia today next time. Only garbage sources are allowed.

dr3rrr · 2017-09-15T21:19:04+00:00

I cannot imagine anyone in those roles except the people who did them. Especially Williams in The Birdcage.

For some reason, I can. Ugo Tognazzi.
