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

We plan to cut all homeless people in half by 2025

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

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

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.

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.

we already knew Germans had a bad sense of humour so this is no surprise
