"maxxing" is some stupid shit
Stupidmaxxing is what the kids call it
Its a meme. Most europeans dont follow this lifestyle and maxxing is usually a way to refer to something thats exaggerated. Also languages change and maxxing, pilled, etc are completely natural developments. You could say latin words are stupid cause they are also formed with compounding words.
No.
Agreed, stupid new speech in a world where everything needs to be maxed out (for whatever reason)
Sunbathing is shit. The sun is not your friend. There is no safe tan.
Deciding to never run for a public transport connection ever again feels powerful, and relaxed!
Not giving a fuck really pays off actually
Espresso with every meal yet never in a rush is a level of calm I could never comprehend.
Lunch? Espresso AND wine!
Yeah... definitively not a German thing 😃
Gemanmaxxing:
sit in your car
get mad there are so many other people in cars around you
go shopping before a long weekend
complain about how many people go shopping before the long weekend
be tourist
make fun of tourists
Wat. This does not resemble my experience over there at all. Though I’m sure the long weekend thing is pretty universal.
I was bitching on the train about Br*ts due to brexit and the older German dude I was talking wouldn’t have a bar of it, calmly replied “they have to make they’re own choices and go their own way and that’s ok” or something to that effect. Auto Bahn was fine and everyone was super friendly when I proclaimed to be a tourist by stating in German “sorry I speak little German, do you speak English”? More often than not they complimented my pronunciation and replied in English.
Hell in the smaller towns, shops didn’t even open on weekend before 10am. Shit was awesome. Would go back in a heartbeat. Though I will concede had I answered differently when they asked where I’m from, it may have been a slightly different experience.
No no, you got it all wrong. It's not about making fun of tourists visiting Germany, it's about making fun of other German tourists while being yourself one of those tourists abroad.
Lets make another meme about that and don't forget Luften
To be fair, I do know the name of my local butcher...
And different kind of cheese every day!
Scheiß yeah!
Are there other kinds than Jarlsberg?

Never be in a rush? Na man. The Dutch are always on time.
That's the trick: leave enough time to definitely get there on time, and you'll never need to rush.
I often see a guy on my commute who is running to catch his bus, and every time I think, dude just set your alarm clock 5 minutes earlier.
I'm like this sometimes, and if I would set my alarm clock 5 minutes earlier it wouldn't change much because my mind would go "well, you did set your alarm 5 minutes earlier, you can relax for another 5 minutes".
No traffic jams if you bike everywhere.
