Thank God the image has someone’s reaction in it, I wouldn’t know how to feel about it otherwise.

Is this real? Because holy shit, someone's going to see that and go "Y'know what? Why not."

Likely. Morticians ads that wish people to die are common in germany. We find this funny.

[–] youCanCallMeDragon@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago

That’s because it is funny

The funeral industry actually has a shitton of assasins who kill everyone sooner or later so that they can sell more caskets and urns.

Not this particular picture. The ad is for a funeral service in Berlin but the station depicted is Hamburg Messehallen. Though I think there are real pictures of ads like this from within Berlin.

If this is real, this is a tragedy and then lawsuit waiting to happen.

We plan to cut all homeless people in half by 2025

Cutting is meant literally here. Cut in half by a train.

That would be a synopsis of the joke, yes

[–] wolf@feddit.de 23 points 11 months ago

I am living in Berlin and this is a real ad.

the image is edited. that is not what the text originally read

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Can You share the oryginal? I tried to find it but couldn't. From what I could find this seems legit.

i found this version (tw: Reddit), which appears to be the original German ("Kommen sie doch näher"), which was then translated to English.

i was being a little misleading in my original comment, for the sake of trolling.

In anyone else is blind, they’re train/subway track
