Comically stupid German street crime campaign.
(click ads, via)
Bad Rhymes fight Violent Crimes?
Apparently, Düsseldorfians are shitfaced 24/7, and don't know a crime when they see/hear one. Put the stein down Wolfgang and call 1-1-0, ya dummkopf. Note: One (well, me) can't help but think that this campaign is addressing right wing violence, which is growing in the city. Ad agency: Butter, Berlin/Düsseldorf.

it's not about being drunk, it's about a german tendency to look the other way when shit is going down. i suppose german's aren't alone in this, but it is certainly a problem over here.
In Munich they wouldn't cross the street until the pedestrian sign would flash. They would just stand there on the curb in a group even when there was absolutely no traffic whatsoever. I was, like, fuck that. I'm crossing.

Rat kings are cryptozoological phenomena said to arise when a number of rats become intertwined at their tails, which become stuck together with blood, dirt, and excrement. The animals consequently grow together while joined at the tails, which are often broken. The phenomenon is particularly associated with Germany, where the majority of instances have been reported...
