So this is one of the new NIKE films for their “Make the difference” campaign. Starring Franck Ribery of Bayern Munich. A good film. Have a look at the original version:
Problem is that the German version is horrible. The voice over destroys the whole atmosphere. The tonality is absolutely wrong. NIKE is not ironic. NIKE is epic. And another thing that you might notice (if you speak German) is that they tried to translate the original voice over nearly word for word. Most times that doesn’t really make sense. You should say the same without actually copying every word. A poor job here, honestly. Could have been much better. Have a look yourself:

There were people I met that got quite sad about their favourite band quitting. They were melancholic and sad. And I always thought: They were just a fucking band, get on with your lives, sad badsterds. Now since today I’m officially in the club of those melancholic fools. Noel has left oasis and therefore there is no oasis anymore. It’s sad on one hand because they were a part of my youth (now if that doesn’t sound pathetic, what does?) and were the biggest band in the world. On the other hand I bet Noel will be walking the solo path and, as he is the heart and soul of oasis, that’s quite a good end for me then. The band is gone, the most important part of it stays. So till then, here is just Noel and one of his greatest anthems.

(= attention scum) which is a short message to those annoying Russian muppets that seem to flood this website with SPAM comments. Lads, it’s pretty simple: they cost you time, they cost me time but nobody else than you and me will ever read it. So please:

This is for all you Maritza Davidsons, Jaquenette Roselles, Kris Cowans, Hiram Vis, Cruz Elmores, Loraine Byers or whatever bloody character you SPAM mailers come up with. For now and all time: I am neither interested in enlarging my penis until it can knock at the door of my girlfriend’s larynx nor in purchasing Dreamwaver or Photoshop CS3 or whatever bloody programme on this planet. Furthermore I am not interested in joining the republican, the liberal, the socialist, the green or whatever party on this planet. I won’t forward any chain letter, subscribe any petition or sign any newspaper / magazine / newsletter you generously inform me about. My interest in becoming a follower of the Process Church of the Final Judgement, Scientology, the Church of the First Days, the Church of the Last Days and the Church of any god-given Day is as low as my wish to get one more email about Kabbalah and any Kabbalah-related product. For god’s sake I don’t care about all this stuff. Not in the past, present, future or any time froanother galaxy in another dimension. Please, bother me wherever you like. On the TV. On billboards. In the radio. But not on my mail account. I hate the feeling of checking my mails and being pleased about getting some of them only to find out that they we not send by lovely people I know but you dastard bunch I have never met. Oh, and while you’re reading this, please let me add something: No, I am not interested in purchasing a SPAM filter.

This post may be a bit geeky but two weeks or so ago I got a new camera. Because some quick handed braveheart stole my old one as you may have read. Anyway, let’s start with the good things. The camera is great. Small. Brilliant pictures. Easy menu and stuff. I love my little Canon ixus just as much as I loved the Canon ixus that this Mr. Thieving blablabla stole. But…and that’s the part where you jump in, my beloved Canon Digital Camera Engineer…why the hell do I need this unhandy, ugly camera station to download the pictures from the camera? When development is all about making things easier and more comfortable then why did you came up with the brilliant idea of “Hey, you know what? Let’s replace one single, handy USB-cable with one single, handy USB-cable AND this…thing!” Could you please explain?
And while thinking about it perhaps learn from the nice guys at SanDisk. I never heard of them before you (Canon) only put a 16 megabyte MMC card into my lovely camera’s box but they seem to have nice ideas. Like this one: a SD card plus USB. It looks like this:
And, hello Canon, do you know why it’s a brilliant ideas? Because it frees me from carrying this camera-station-socket-thing that came with my camera all day. Don’t get me wrong. I love your cameras. They are great products. But you can’t use the one word equity (uh, hello Mr. Saatchi) of “PLAY” while your products tie the consumer to things like camera stations. Sometimes one simple cable can be the solution. By the way: Hello friendly people at SanDisk. You build fantastic, easy-to-use products. But maybe you could overthink the slogan “Save your world in ours”. Only a guess.
After rereading this post I know it looks and sounds absolutely geeky but sorry I can’t help.

What do you do, when you are a retarded drunk bastard walking to the toilet and thinking about taking pictures of your crown jewels to scare the underaged friends of your little sister? Yeah, you search the jackets of people having a christmas party in the same club and steal some money to get even more pissed and, well, a camera to take some pictures. So Mr. I am to much of a sissy to beat people up in a dark street and that’s why I steal the stuff when they don’t see me: I hope you bought some really bad drinks with my € 100 and I think you had approx. 5 minutes of fun with my digital camera. With empty batteries and no power supply. But I give a big and lovely “Cheers!” to you, Mr. Charity Guy, because you left € 5 for me and my credit cards. So crack open a nice, cold Bud Light Mr. Quick-Handed Braveheart and give a warm welcome to the cheerful “Thanks” I am sending to you via internet.
