Germans are known for being to the point, it's just their culture

It's something I like though, no bullshit and having a meeting that yields nothing. It should be in more peoples culture but it seems alot of folks get offended by it.

I gotta go with Ron Swanson.

I must go with the man known as Joji. Some of the shit he has said is rather true 

 

"Kids the only way to succeed is to chip away at the soul"

 

"People are just shitty in general, you can't really trust people"

 

That and common, its what's left of Filthy Frank

 Why Augustus specifically?

AS opposed to Augustus generally?  

 

 

(as you can guess, I'm not taking the question too seriously. But Augustus>>>>everyone )

Not a role model as such, but Vlad Dracula, for brutally stopping the Muslim invasion of Europe in the 15th century.

Eh, I've been in plenty of meetings here in Germany that made me want to strangle every single motherfucker in the room for wasting my time.

 

As for role models, I admire Tommy Robinson for his tenacity in the face of overwhelming bullshit, and Styxhexenhammer for his bluntness and him sticking to his principles. Then there is also my platoon leader during basics, a guy who commanded respect and authority like he was genetically engineered for it. Never shouted or screamed, no matter what happened, he didn't need to. He talked, you listened and you listened well.

Also people like Anthony Borges. Kid is 15 year old and already better than most of us will ever be.

i dont really have a role model. But if you ask me what person i admire the most, probably mickey rourke. 

he had a astonishingly difficult childhood and I can only say that some of it sounds like mine. so I can only imagine how that affected him.

then he went on and become an actor, then he got famous, become basically intolerable, then everything went south for him, for a very long time. 

 

 I remember he said something like this: after 10 years of not getting a job in acting, I thought, yeah, maybe this is it. You know, the party is over. And I never thought that I've bounced back after 16 years. 

 

You know a lot of celebs talked about their past, their struggles, and they painted everything and tell you: "yeah it makes me a better person bla bla"

but when mickey rourke spoke about his life, you can clearly see that all those things happened 15,20 years ago, still affects him in a way that is not explainable, you can see his true emotions just under his huge body, his masculine face. 

 

I think him being honest about his past, is the most courageous thing I have ever seen. I know he is not perfect, he has his fucked up side. But man, I have huge respect for him.
