2) everyone loves your beer
3) you can complain about everything and nearly everyone will agree, no matter how bad it really is
4) you don´t get arrested for driving 220 km/h at the highways

Das Leben sollte keine Reise mit dem Ziel sein, attraktiv und mit einem guterhaltenen Körper unter die Erde zu kommen. Wir sollten lieber seitlich hineinrutschen, Schokolade in einer Hand, Absinth in der anderen, unser Körper total verbraucht und dabei schreiend "Wow, was für eine Fahrt!"
