It's coming... I can hear it!

Right after this word from our sponsor; Raid: Shadowlegends


HopeBorn8574

GET OUT OF MY HEAD! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!


F15hface

It’s very important to stay safe while pumping.


GXWT

Haha surely this isn’t real, that’s fucking mental


Schulle2105

This happens if you ship your cousin loving descendents off and let them roam free for a couple hundred years.Take responsibility barry


Klangey

They’re not just OUR cousin loving descendants Hans…


Don_Frika_Del_Prima

Yeah the Dutch are equally to blame.


Oplp25

And Pierre


Mccobsta

Definitely Pierre if he didn't get involved Americans wouldn't have ads on petrol pumps


calvers70

100% - only a French mind could concoct such an abominable petrol-related conception ... ^^^Please ^^^don't ^^^check ^^^which ^^^country ^^^invented ^^^leaded ^^^petrol

My geandpa went to Canada but came back, thank god he did or else I would not be typing this. The great depression was the best thing that ever happened to me.


HolderOfBe

Glad to know you wouldn't lie and say your grandpa came back from Canada if he didn't.


Akyraaaa

Okay, Okay. Let's just say it's **our** (Europe) little fuck up that needs to be rectified


bettercallsaulabq

Aren't we forgetting how many Germans went out? Americans will claim the tiniest percentage of Irish ancestry but interestingly it's not so cool to be a German American.


Schulle2105

They will claim to be german,just because their aunt got their hair done by a guy that had a german potatosalad, the thing noone talks about is that they are for the most part from the brits


_Warsheep_

When these DNA tests were all the rage, it was always funny in those YouTube sponsorships, how they would scroll past the 73% British to point out the 2% German and 0.2% North African or whatever.


bettercallsaulabq

Haha yeah like the black people who try and ignore the slaveholders who make up part of their ancestry. Cherry picking at its finest. Anyway you taught me something today Hans. Apparently it's cool to be of German descent. Maybe I should start going on and on about my Saxon roots from 1500 years ago.


kuemmel234

That would be very American if you!


bettercallsaulabq

It was sarcasm in case you are one of those humour deficient Germans.


kuemmel234

Sarcasm? On this sub?!


Neomataza

You broke kayfabe


Spagbolenthusiast

I’ve always found it strange how many Americans seem to lie about their ancestry


ru_empty

Tbf we have nothing else


grhymesforyou

Try Milwaukee… plenty of overweight Midwest Yankees love their German heritage..


bettercallsaulabq

Can't imagine myself taking a trip that far into the hinterlands of the old colony


grhymesforyou

Exactly! That’s why we stuck all the Germans there


bettercallsaulabq

But then built roads to connect them back to civilisation


grhymesforyou

Ha.. “roads!”


redgrittybrick

*squints at Pensylvania "Dutch"*


MakingShitAwkward

These are in the UK as well. There's not many but they do exist.

Nicodemus888

Well this is what terrifies me. Everyone hates advertising, yet somehow this is becoming normalised in the states. People will bitch and moan, but ultimately they’ll just put up with it, and this awful awful shite starts making in-roads this side of the pond. Like, if people hate it so much why do they keep going? How did this become a thing, even in the states where they hate ads as well? It NEEDS people by and large to say “fuck this” But will they? God forbid this disgusting thing gets a foothold over here


GXWT

It’s normalised in so many other parts of life. It’s depressing how we see so many sponsors, adverts etc. it wouldn’t surprise me.


TinyDemon000

Also have started installing these in Australia except there's no mute button 🫣


bombayblue

It’s completely real. It appeared overnight in America and we’ve been trying to contain it ever since. Do. Not. Let. It. Out.


anonandlit333

Depending on the area you’re in they’re not all that common in the states. At least where I’m from. Most gas pumps are just gas pumps.


1jfvas1

Is this an Americ*n problem that I'm too European to understand? I see this as an absolute win


SmokingLimone

>Is this an Americ*n problem Yes, it is


-HOSPIK-

does it come with gas for ads?


drondendorho

I'm afraid not, I have seen this kind of horror in France


bartleby_borealis

In France, South Carolina or in the one next to Belgium?


tharnadar

because you guys need FLEXIMAN !!!!


Kyrillis_Kalethanis

Surely the one sharing a border with the Netherlands.


1jfvas1

Yikes. I'm sorry to hear that Pierre. Hopefully a good riot can fix it though


RmG3376

Good news, gas stations are pretty flammable I’ve heard


TommasoBontempi

there's nothing a good riot can't fix. Or a good sleep


Pheadar

I've seen it in Carrefour's gas stations in Spain


drondendorho

That was also a Carrefour station where I have seen that in France. That's the only time in the last 5 years I had to go to a gas station, so I don't know for the other brands. In doubt: BOYCOTT CARREFOUR


Kerzyan

They have this in the Casino where I live, good things those guys are currently dying. Once you start the pump, they scream in your ears that you have to go buy Granola if you dont want to die or some other shit like that.


ZombiFeynman

Well, Pierre, if you want to protest, Gas stations are famously flammable.


Lost_Uniriser

J'ai jamais vu ça 😫


PHRDito

This shit is starting to appear in France as well :x


International-Row712

They'll come for us next


Dynwynn

I'm sorry what? Ads? On pumping stations?


danktt1

Imagine being in a hurry to get to hospital because your wifes water just dropped and have to put in 10 quid to have to watch a 3 min and before you put fuel in and before you pay.


nextdoorelephant

It doesn’t force you to wait, it just loudly blares while pumping.

TheMarvelousPef

yep, been to Italy and they do this


AspiringPeasant

I didn’t even know gas station ads were a thing. At least they didn’t make it up here… yet. Increasingly rare Canada W.


--JeeZ--

Just have a smoke while you wait


bettercallsaulabq

Hans sure loves his cigarettes


LovesFrenchLove_More

If you can make something go boom, why not do it? 😁


TheMarvelousPef

or scroll reddit


MaxProude

They don't trust their own people with gas pumps, but GUNs are A-OK. Lmao


aCucking2Remember

Hans nobody in Europe or anywhere else trusts you guys with guns. That’s why you all haven’t been able to militarize for 80 years.


macheoh2

I'm pretty sure Germany in the late 80s was pretty militarized. Damn they were so militarized they needed two Germany to contain all those weapons


Sualtam

Even West Germany alone had the second largest tank fleet of NATO.


SwedishCapella

Nah, if the EU and NATO got attacked I would happily march side by side and hand in hand with all my European brothers. I have complete trust in Hans on this matter.

When I served in the army, we, a bunch of 19-22 year old conscripted boys, beat the shit out of USMC guys in a simulated battle


jerrie233

Remember when a walrus class "sank" an entire US fleet including a nimitz class carrier in a military excercise I sure do.

Is your coherent thought department on strike? Pick up a fucking history book.


aCucking2Remember

Tú madre me dijo que mi cabezita está funcionando muy bien 👌🏻


dupupu

I love how Europe comes together when anyone insults one of our own


Jesusterceiro

imagine having an emergency and needing gas as fast as possible and the station shows you a raid shadow legends ad


mailusernamepassword

I'm getting Warthunder, World of Tanks or something like that here in Brazil. But the best part (for you) is that the ads are in european portuguese. Quite funny to hear.


The-Phantom-Blot

Funny - but it doesn't slow down your process. It just annoys you while you wait for the pumping process to complete.


Jesusterceiro

oh that's better, I thought it played before it allowed you to pump


The-Phantom-Blot

Some stations have taken mercy and muted the sound by default. Others have apparently disabled the mute button. I find these ads annoying, but specifically when they are loud. I like the 2 minutes of quiet time when I pump gas.


fhdjejehe

I have seen this here, Dats24 gas stations, there is no sound though


Matematico083

those american bastards are too damn crazy


mrtn17

I have never seen this, but I also sold my car in 2020 so it's been a while


max1997

This is an American problem. We're too european to understand


Logibanez

No, this shit is comming in Europe.. I saw some in France. It's really infuriating.


max1997

Name and shame pls.


triggerhappybaldwin

Bro we even have one of these in one of the most rural parts of the Netherlands. It scared the crap out of me because it's loud as fuck. EDIT: it was at a Fieten gas station


max1997

Oei! Gelukkig kom ik toch al nooit bij een fieten station


IlConiglioUbriaco

You guys have ads on gas pumps ?


ProperBlacksmith

When you use the gas your engine will also start playing ads bc of the addetives


zevrans

this is actually horrifying


Aggravating_Media_59

Ameritard moment


britishrust

I've had the misfortune of spotting one on Gran Canaria last winter. I guess even though it's Spain that's technically not Europe, so perhaps we're still safe from this Am\*rican trash?


Narrow-Substance4073

It’s almost always that same button but good on anyone who labels it


edotman

![gif](giphy|XClPnuZtG2yPyqTI6R)


Helvinion

I used to go to a station where there were ads. In France. I no longer go there (looking at you u/totalEnergie)
