That looks like Hans Sanitizer.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month 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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month 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.

But my Sandschneidemaschine is broken!

The Sandschneidemaschinenmechanikermeister will take care of that.

Man, that language is crazy.

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

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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

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

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

I could tell by the pixels.

The illusion is good, balanced enough to trick skimmers

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Well, the "s" is lower case, too

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

For inflection. GermAHNs.

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.

0,09% aren't enough.

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

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

"Maximum Lasting Formula with Vitamin M"

Wow, it must be made with unobtainium!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maximum Lasting

That’s not the word I saw. 😳

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I’m with you on this one.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That's not what it says.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Pocket sand!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

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

Why else would they call it a handitiser
