They can have the doner kebabs they want, hate the stuff.

Me too. I mean the taste was never my thing, but when I learned about how the meat loafs get created and what kind of stuff is in it - then I started to hate it.

During university I worked as a "cook" in a Biergarten kitchen for some weeks, one of many jobs I had, and one of the worst ever. Since the time I saw what was being done in there, I am extremely hesitent to visit restaurants anymore, and I certainly NEVER eat in minor imbisses. The mere idea kills my appetite immediately. If it must be a restaurant, then only an expensive one with transparent kitchen areas.

They say you get what you pay for. But with restaurants I would say you often do not get what is worth the money. I prefer to stay out.

this is from an Danish article

I have used Google translate

"
After being drawn through the 120 minutes of death march of the World Cup semi-final between the Netherlands and Argentina, a fan presented Wednesday night a proposal that after the first immediate giggles had subsided, a frank discussion began about the format

The proposal, which appeared on Twitter, is as follow:

- Teams takes the penalty competition before the match - and find a winner.
- Then they play the game, and if there is a winner here, the penalty result is removed
- If it's still a draw after 120 minutes, the result from the penalty comes into order/action/force

The idea behind the proposal is that it would therefore force the 'losing' team from the preliminary penalty shoot-out to chase victory more in the actual game, which in theory will provide more entertainment. "

This is just a part of the story

I guess you remove it from premises?


Meanwhile some bored researchers at Cambridge University have compiled a list of the three most used words on the internet related to the various teams in the Cup:

That is so queer that I start to like it!

Hm? :06:

Do I lose something in translation here?

Well, surely if one has a kebab that one does not wish to have, one removes it from the premises? :hmmm:

I cannot sort in what you mean, Oberon, premise I know to mean "Prämisse, Vorwegannahme, Voraussetzung, Räumlichkeit, Betriebsgelände, Firmengebäude". Vocabulary seems to fail me.

Premises....such as a restaurant.
a.a tract of land including its buildings.
b.a building together with its grounds or other appurtenances.
c.the property forming the subject of a conveyance or bequest.

Well, yes, that's what I figured, too. Somehow Oberon's mind and mine just bypasssed each other this time. Still have no clue what he was after...

Meanwhile, it became known that in halftime of the match GER-BRA there was a speech by the coach who warned against pushing the Brazilians into deeper despair, and a decision was being made in the lockers that the Germans would not attack any further but save the Brazilians from any further disgrace. Means: they switched back gears by policy change in halftime. This link

http://www.welt.de/sport/fussball/wm...Deutschen.html

refers to according statements by Mats Hummels in the Daily Mail.

If true and the Germans played with active parking brakes, one can imagine that they could have won even higher, if only they wanted.

Was it sympathy for the Brazilian public? Or fear to rise expectations too high regarding the German team? These two are not necessarily valid reasons, but one could tolerate them. But if it was to save the opposing team - this would have been the wrong motivation for this decision, then.

Article also says Hummel'S knee is fit again. Relief!

Well, Argentina is going to wear the blue shirt in the final match (the substitute for the shirt with stripes), so we are really condemned now.

So we ship out all the doner kebabs from Germany and the UK to Argentina. :shifty: :)

READ ALL ABOUT IT..
