That looks like Hans Sanitizer.

[–] sobriquet@aussie.zone 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I spent way too much time trying to figure out what percentage of the German population are named “Hans” to see how effective this would be. According to this site and assuming a population of 84m, there’s about 0.01%. This product claims to be 0.09% effective against Germans, so it seems to be Sanitizing more than just Hans.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

My efforts produced .25% as the number indicating this only works on the weakest hans.

I don't like sand. Its rough, it's irritating especially when it speaks german.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Jetzt werd' bloß nicht frech hier, du ferngesteuerte Unterhose!

[–] b_tr3e@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Schutt up and eat your zand. Do not force me to go for ze Labskaus!

[–] tauren@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But my Sandschneidemaschine is broken!

[–] b_tr3e@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Sandschneidemaschinenmechanikermeister will take care of that.

[–] tauren@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

Man, that language is crazy.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It seems the original post was deleted, but I found this version with more pixels. Sadly, someone added some shit all over it. I might try to edit it out later.

[–] stu42j@lemm.ee 19 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Curious how the "an" in Germans is in lowercase when the rest is uppercase

[–] lgmjon64@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago (2 children)

You're right. Almost makes me think it might be photoshopped.

[–] sobriquet@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago

Are you saying the internet could be lying to me?! :shocked-pikachu:

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

Also I think the thumb in the upper part of the picture has another thumb.

[–] hogmomma@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I could tell by the pixels.

[–] And009@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 week ago

The illusion is good, balanced enough to trick skimmers

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

Well, the "s" is lower case, too

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

For inflection. GermAHNs.

[–] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago
[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

That’s like 7,5 million Germans.

"Masturbating formula with Vitamin M"

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago

Oh is that what that said - I was like wtf is Vitamin 2!?!

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Interestingly, hanitizer is what I call the sanitizing stuff you put on you hands.

I see your dad values efficiency in his communications.

[–] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago

He's also a primary care provider lol

0,09% aren't enough.

"Masturbating Formula with Vitamin M"

See, the version without Vitamin M is less effective...

[–] Tailz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

How I read in my dreams:

"Maximum Lasting Formula with Vitamin M"

Wow, it must be made with unobtainium!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Maximum Lasting

That’s not the word I saw. 😳

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

I’m with you on this one.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 3 points 1 week ago

That's not what it says.

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

Pocket sand!

...Hanitizer

[–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

All you Krauts better watch your backs!

[–] b_tr3e@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

There is nothing wrong with my backs.

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

Common misconception uggh. You put it on sand to make hands. Duh

Why else would they call it a handitiser
