  1. As a part German, you are not allowed to accuse other nations of having peculiar sexual kinks.
  2. Well, you say that... (summary: he talks with his bikes, names them, and has sex with them) "If I sit on bike, and I only think about bike, eventually I cum."
  3. Looking forward to buying your bike for €20 off an Amsterdam junkie.
  4. German is the #1 language to take the piss out of don't kid yourself mate.
  5. Not all red lights are traffic lights in Amsterdam.
  6. I wouldn't cycle there unless I felt particularly suicidal.
  7. Walking with a helmet is technically also safer but it's also fucking lame. As is riding a bicycle with a helmet. I'd only consider wearing one in a country where traffic rules are virtually non-existent.

    The man is a stressed-out asshole who might go Breaking Bad, but the woman just has this edge of mania that makes it hard to believe I'm not looking at a slapstick movie.

    I randomly saw this episode on tv once and I had to go to YouTube to watch it again. Couldn't believe it! That woman obviously has issues.
  10. In the light of my exploration of more, political literature I've ordered the selected works of Kim Il Sung and the Green Book by Muammar al-Gaddafi.
  11. That's cool, but you'll probably ruin the optics by wearing a helmet while riding it.

    Also, his insults and tantrums are 'highlights' from hours and hours of material, so he probably doesn't explode until there is a fuck-up. That said, I can't get enough of him roasting entitled customers.
  13. I think he's right in saying that there is no clear favourite for the final. People in general seem to go with Real Madrid based on their track record in the CL over the past years, but honestly Juventus might be the most solid team in Europe at the moment.
  14. An interview by Marca with that other living Juventus legend, Alessandro Del Piero, on the upcoming final between Juventus and Madrid, and their past confrontations. Del Piero: "Buffon is crazy about winning the Champions League" Alongside Zinedine Zidane in the 1998 Champions League final in Amsterdam, Alessandro del Piero was one of Juventus' best players against Real Madrid, a team they face again on Saturday with Gianluigi Buffon crazy about winning the only trophy that's missing in his career. Del Piero hung up his boots in 2014 in India, after playing for 19 seasons at Juve, winning 14 titles. He talked to MARCA about the 1998 final, his relationship with Zidane and what he expects from the Cardiff showpiece. Why did Juve lose the 1998 final, because they were a big favourite ? "Bad memories ... are you sure Juve played a final in 98? Joking aside, it is very difficult to say now what happened. Reality and history says that the match ended with that result, and in general, making judgments about the final would not be fair. Predictions often escape even the most rational motives. The state of form in which you arrive to these type of matches is crucial and, perhaps, Real Madrid was better than us from that point of view." Did being favourites hurt Juve in Amsterdam then? "I don't think that was the problem. Juventus had a great team, really, a complete and competitive squad. From the 94/95 UEFA Cup final, to the 1998 UEFA Champions League final, we won three consecutive international finals (Champions League, Intercontinental and Supercopa), and lost three more, some in a crazy manner. Perhaps, in that cycle in all those years, the team of 98, that of the final of Amsterdam, was the strongest. We won Serie A, but we could not win the Champions League." Can the same happen to Real Madrid this time? "I don't think there's a clear favourite in Cardiff. They are two teams that have the same possibilities, more or less, to win the tournament. They are champions in their leagues and I think they are the best teams at this moment." Were Juve in 1998 better than the current team? "In my opinion, comparisons between different periods cannot be made. It is something that is not fair. Certainly, as I said, Juventus 1998 was a great team, with individuals of extraordinary quality and many players at the most important and momentous moment of his career. This Juventus is doing something historic, something never seen in Italy. This group only need to win the most desired title, the Champions League." How was Zidane as a teammate? "A special person. There was a harmony, a different understanding between us in the human aspect. Therefore, on the pitch, on a day to day basis, it was much easier. Zidane had an extraordinary talent, and his only interest was to help the team. He was not a selfish player. He had a unique ability to be a great and also to be a team player. I was very lucky to be able to play with him." Did you imagine Zizou as a coach, and a successful one? "At first, when we shared the dressing room, I couldn't imagine that he was going to go that way, but when I saw him on the bench, I honestly thought he would be alright. He is intelligent, ambitious, and above all he sees football with great lucidity. It's the reason why he has the capacity to make the correct decisions, both on and off the pitch. The results speak for him. He has won everything so far." Which player can decide the final? Dybala? Ronaldo? Benzema? Higuain? Marcelo? Alves? "It's the small details that decides a game like this. All the names you speak of can be decisive, but there also others. I would add Buffon, who is crazy to take home the only trophy he is missing." Did Juve regret having lost the final against Real Madrid? "It's true that the percentage of finals won by Madrid is impressive, but there is no way to make comparisons between different matches. Real won the last, but the story is constantly renewed, and basically this is the great charm in the matches between two clubs like these." Which team do you like the most, Juve or Real Madrid? "I have an infinite respect for Real Madrid, the club, team and coach and their fantastic fans. But, of course, in Cardiff I will encourage Juventus. I hope you understand. [laughs]."

  15. That is a potential pitfall for Barcelona as clinging on to old stars is tempting on the short term, but it can leave you with ineffective players who play based on the name on their shirt as their transfer value disappears into thin air. Then again, they didn't hold on to Ronaldinho for another 7 years back in the day, so it would seem they are aware of this.
  16. They really look ecstatic don't they.
