Dirty posted:He seems to be neatly ignoring the revenue that Northern Ireland generates so he can maximise his argument - I mean, I think he's still right overall, but the relentless focus on "what it costs us" while completely factoring out "what we get back" is kind of what got us here. He also doesn't factor in that Northern Ireland, like other economically disadvantaged areas, suffers a brain drain where the majority of people with good education or marketable skills get the hell out as soon as they can and take themselves off to London to boost the South East of England even further ahead.

Berlin is awesome. Frankfurt is nice for, like, one day. Got drunk as gently caress on appfelwine. I go to Munich like 2-3 times a year for work and it's nice enough but kinda a dull city aside from drinking beer in good beer halls and gardens. Never been to Oktoberfest but all my coworkers who are locals usually try to gtfo during it. Hordes of drunk Americans and Brits generally being dickheads from what I hear.

I went with my girlfriend and neither of us are clubber party kids and still had an awesome time. It's like NYC if everything were like 40% cheaper. Berliner kebabs are some of the greatest street food ever (plus my gf is Turkish so she would always just order in Turkish so they knew to give us the good poo poo). Their airports are hilariously bad though. Tegel is like viewing the artwork of someone with mental illness. Didn't go to Schonefeld because they only have barely functioning airlines to other eu cities. The third airport... doesn't exist.

I moved to Berlin 5 years ago (from the Netherlands) because it was the best city in Europe then and it is still the best city now, and will be the best city for the foreseeable future... especially now that the Berlin senate has frozen all rents for the next five years lol

Last time I went to Germany it was to visite the Völklingen ironworks, which is an absolutely massive iron mill, and representative of the industry in the Alsace region which was fought over in the world wars. It is a UNESCO site now and a museum. It’s very cool, it took about 6 hours to get through the entire thing. It was a pleasant riverside train ride to get there, and I stopped by Trier, where I visited the Karl Marx house and an ancient Roman ruin. So I went to Germany for the very German reasons of: - beer and sausage - riding trains - appreciating industrial machinery - Marx stuff it was good twoday has issued a correction as of 14:15 on Oct 11, 2019 |
