Be wary of Germans singing songs. You know what it leads to.

Correct, I should have been more direct with my wording. It's you, eejit. If you want your next alt to be less obvious then comment something other than the same shite jokes on every thread.

You’re obviously sexually repressed, take it out on someone else.

Both OMJ and Hermit use a shit ton of IPs. And one OMJ used on 4/4 has considerable overlap with one The Hermit used on the same day.

 

Combined with Hermit never contributing anything of value, he's out.

You know, if somebody tries to accuse someone of being sexually repressed then it’s obvious that they’re truly the sexually oppressed person

Actually shocked, as I watched Conversation Piece, which Visconti directed him in, only last night! I watched their prior collaboration The Damned last week.

(As you may gather from my avatar, I'm a fan of this period of cinema, and the likes of Visconti in particular)

We picked Helmut Berger in our fist D-A-CH-List in 2021 in 28th place, but didn't considered him for the next two lists. What a shame, what a miss!!!

 

So I hope for a qo as I picked him in my DDP theme team at least.
