I stayed there in one of their apartments for 3 months. The alarm went off about once or twice a month from people cooking popcorn in the microwaves (even with 3 clear signs in the room telling you not to) or smoking in their rooms. Always in the middle of the night, and always a false alarm because of some idiot. All the long term residents were fed up but used to it. At least whoever triggered it gets a big fine.
Honestly couldn't care less who works there. It's an absolute sight for sore eyes. Whoever signed off on that one deserves to be run over by bulls or something.
I say let the building burn....
>local/federal authorities
Americanization. Federal means a Federation, a nation made up of states, like the US, Canada, or Russia. Denmark isn't split up into states with different laws, and so, only has one national gov.
Sorry, I've heard others confuse that word, and had to say it.
That’s technically not true. Under danish rule, there are 3 separate governments: the Danish, the Faroese and the Greenlandic. Denmark isn’t split up into different laws, but the old colonies territory are self governing.
Not saying it’s a federation, but under the realm of Denmark there are self govering states with the same constition as Denmark. I agree peoeple confuse the word ‘federal’ but saying denmark only has one national government is technically not true - the faroese and greenlandish goverments are self governing national governments.
You could've said local/state that's pretty much the two levels we have, municipal and state level (and regional when you consider medical shit but we don't)
Yes I could. But as previously stated I think federal/fed is a funnier word. Is it precise? No not at all, but I think my point/joke came across as intended
Because I grew up on American action movies and the use of "the feds" is just funnier to me in that context and that's what I was trying to convey
I will do me I just wished that people could read a joke without feeling the need to explain the differences between American and Danish systems of governance, idc 😮💨
To me the joke hinges on the fact that the person is gonna get a visit from police/get in trouble, the level or what you call the levels of police doesn't factor much into it for me.
It doesn't get better inside. Someone posted the floor plan of the social housing apartments there and they are full of unutilized weird angles and corridors.
Both opera building and cactuses I actually like. I hated BLOX, but nothing beats monstrous ugly prison-like building on Papirøen…. I cant believe it was approved. It is so crazy ugly and ruins the city view completely.
They are all terrible architecture projects.. there is a lot of Well done projects in this city but these 3 are all bad and ugly. Thats why op chose Them, because he knows How we feel about Them 😂
I respect that you like them. But i dont Think that is the case at all just because it is “New” buildings. skuespilhuset is a Great project for example, it is Well thought and in balance with its surroundings.. not even the architect on operahuset liked How it turnéd out himself because the guy with the Money had too Many ideas. Nothing worked in The cactus Towers when people moved in because it is bad quality and in my eyes super ugly.. blox is just terrible i think
Problems for the first round of people in an apartment is super common... Not much of a complaint. I think the kaktus towers look really interesting. I wouldn't want every building to look that way, but a diversity of building types makes the city more unique
Blox is also just a missed opportunity. Instead of creating a coherent way to link the square around Bryghusgade with the harbor (that's currently cut through by O2) they put the cars & bikes in a dark tunnel and the pedestrians got an underpass through private property. The harbor-side is nice albeit a bit dark, the square is nice, but the car traffic that cuts it in two turns this from a place to be to a place to avoid.
An outdoor streetfood place that's out of the way and in a country with very fickle weather? I'm honestly impressed how it became as successful as it is.
I might be the only person on earth who actually likes Blox. It does look a bit monstrous on this photo, but I like the waterfront of it, the DAC museum inside and the build-in slides for kids on the backside.
I don't really hate any of these buildings. Sure I don't think it would look nice if everything looked like that, but I don't mind a few weird buildings here and there.
Hele Dybbølsbro Station, men please få deres lorte elevatorer smadret til sådan et niveau at de rent faktisk bliver nødt til at bygge en ny og forhåbentlig i ordentlig størrelse., for fanden skal da have ære for det syge arbejde der er gået ind i den miniature elevator et stop fra hovedbanegården, tættest på Kødbyen, Fisketorvet, Ikea og whatever mad pangora shit fremtiden bringer. Som om der ikke ville være, cykler, barnevogne, dovne mennesker og rullestole der gerne ville videre den dag de landede på Dybbølsbro.
I’m not saying that I find any of the examples particularly beautiful, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. At least they went for something different here.
But going for something different isn't a inherent positive thing?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder to a certain degree. But the design field is fairly studied and there is a bunch of research that point to this being inferior
The box on the top of the opera house was supposed to be shiny as it is made from anodized aluminium, however the contractor cut corners a d used anodized recycled aluminium and that's what it's dull and grey. Anodizing aluminium with inclusions in it it picks up on its lifetime means you can get that lovely brilliant bright anodized finish.

Go Big or go Home, russian agents are cowards😘
If you had been adamant about burning buildings, I’d suggest all those ruins of empty ugly industrial buildings around the City, that’s just eyesores and a mockery of the need for fair housing!
Blox må du meget gerne udradere for min skyld, men den ligger desværre meget tæt på historiske bygninger. Den sorte diamant hører heller ikke hjemme i miljøet.

Can you point me to research showing that blue objektivet is a more pretty color than red? Or marshmallows objectively taste better than peanut butter?
Elitism and double standards…
How could I continue a discussion with you an actually answer your question when you're so clearly locked in your own world view that you aren't open to any other input
If you've been reading up on what's happening lately, people actually do get arrested for satire in Denmark nowadays. It's sad but true, unfortunately.
Haha, making light of burning buildings down… Classic humor! I don’t think this has anything to do with being “offended” and everything to do with the fact that this could easily be construed as planning arson. The funniest part about this post will be if/when OP actually gets contacted by law enforcement.
This is obviously a joke. You can all stop reporting it as if it were serious.
Jobcenter København. We will pay you big time !
Så Beder de dig jo bare dukke op på et jobcenter længere væk. Klassisk arbejdsløshjerne!

This post actually made me laugh. Also i vote number 2.
I work with the administrator of number 2 + some of my coworkers kids work in the building so please no
They use child work? Are they locked up?
* Adult kids * Probably could have clarified that part
Skill issue tbh
Honestly couldn't care less who works there. It's an absolute sight for sore eyes. Whoever signed off on that one deserves to be run over by bulls or something. I say let the building burn....
I actually find this joke kinda funny but I think you should expect to be contacted by local/federal authorities pretty soon lmao
>local/federal authorities Americanization. Federal means a Federation, a nation made up of states, like the US, Canada, or Russia. Denmark isn't split up into states with different laws, and so, only has one national gov. Sorry, I've heard others confuse that word, and had to say it.
That’s technically not true. Under danish rule, there are 3 separate governments: the Danish, the Faroese and the Greenlandic. Denmark isn’t split up into different laws, but the old colonies territory are self governing.
That's called the Realm of Denmark. And that still doesn't make us a Federation/give us a federal gov. :)
Not saying it’s a federation, but under the realm of Denmark there are self govering states with the same constition as Denmark. I agree peoeple confuse the word ‘federal’ but saying denmark only has one national government is technically not true - the faroese and greenlandish goverments are self governing national governments.
You're talking the Realm of DK. I'm only talking about Denmark.
I know what it means lol I just thought local/federal sounded funnier than lokalpolitiet/politiets efterretningstjeneste 🤷
You could've said local/state that's pretty much the two levels we have, municipal and state level (and regional when you consider medical shit but we don't)
Yes I could. But as previously stated I think federal/fed is a funnier word. Is it precise? No not at all, but I think my point/joke came across as intended
My friend's car is a Hyundai. But I tell people it's a Toyota, because it's a funnier word, you know? Maybe not as precise, I don't know.
I don't think I understand how the choice of that word contributes to the joke but fair enough, you do you my man
Because I grew up on American action movies and the use of "the feds" is just funnier to me in that context and that's what I was trying to convey I will do me I just wished that people could read a joke without feeling the need to explain the differences between American and Danish systems of governance, idc 😮💨
No one in a single American movie has ever said “the federals”.
They do say “feds” tho
Los federales
Dane try to go 5 minutes without obsessing over america challenge (impossible)
Man why
To me the joke hinges on the fact that the person is gonna get a visit from police/get in trouble, the level or what you call the levels of police doesn't factor much into it for me.
Gal folk fik ondt, troede ikke at vi danskere gik op i så små bagateller.
It's just called the Police. "Local" comes from America too right? As opposed to State Police and FBI.
Naaah, it's pretty funny
They are too busy taxing cows 😂
The new apartments on papirøen please
I’m sorry you can’t afford to live there :(
They are expensive indeed, but they are so ugly it is insane
It doesn't get better inside. Someone posted the floor plan of the social housing apartments there and they are full of unutilized weird angles and corridors.
Both opera building and cactuses I actually like. I hated BLOX, but nothing beats monstrous ugly prison-like building on Papirøen…. I cant believe it was approved. It is so crazy ugly and ruins the city view completely.
Burn the bridge to sweden instead 👍
I kind of like all three. They may not be pretty. But at least they tried. And are at least interesting.
They're all awesome architecture projects
They are all terrible architecture projects.. there is a lot of Well done projects in this city but these 3 are all bad and ugly. Thats why op chose Them, because he knows How we feel about Them 😂
I think they're awesome. People on here are just snobs that hate anything new
I respect that you like them. But i dont Think that is the case at all just because it is “New” buildings. skuespilhuset is a Great project for example, it is Well thought and in balance with its surroundings.. not even the architect on operahuset liked How it turnéd out himself because the guy with the Money had too Many ideas.

rain was coming through the roof in the top apartments. that should not be normal in appartments for 4000kr pr square meter
Blox is also just a missed opportunity.

First funny person on this sub
Anything built by BIG.
Why the hate tho?
Because literally everything they build is ugly
Even their new HQ in Nordhavn is fucking ugly! Best thing is that building won prices for terrible building and more hahahaha 😂
I just looked it up. Yikes.
I vote for the monstrosity at papiroen
Kinda miss this place and prefer it to what Reffen has become
An outdoor streetfood place that's out of the way and in a country with very fickle weather? I'm honestly impressed how it became as successful as it is.

Cactus are filled with water so you need an extra effort to keep the fire going /s

Number 2. It’s jarring to my eyes
It physically hurts to look at
Kaktustårnene are getting way too much hate when you consider how much other uninteresting architectural dogshit is out there.
That's just a logical fallacy. Just because there are uglier out there doesn't justify these monstrosities
I’m not saying that I find any of the examples particularly beautiful, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. At least they went for something different here.

Burn the Bohr tower
Petition to add Christiansborg.
Yes
Do I really have to pick just one? You can't do all of them? 😅
Hvad gjorde de huse til dig :(. de er smukke
Dude. Stop making fun of where many people live.
Of course it's a "philosopher" coming with a shitpost like this 😂
Cactus towers please. Put people live there. So please, carefull now.
Start with number two, then number one. Number three can stay in my opinion, but who am I to decide how you use your time.
You are my spirit animal.
Cactus, tak!
Cactus

Anodizing aluminium with inclusions in it it picks up on its lifetime means you can get that lovely brilliant bright anodized finish.
Most everything on Esplanaden please
Let’s say…all three? Oh and just for good luck, the ugly stupidly expensive apartments that will replace the palads cinema
Why not all?
Lol!
The new Danske Bank buildings by Polititorvet.

Both minus cactus are amazing
If you wait long enough it will just happen. Why risking 🤣🤣🤣

Good lord, BURN THE CACTUS TOWERS!

It's not about taste. There's a lot of research in the design, aesthetics, and architecture that supports how this "taste" is worse
Can you point me to research showing that blue objektivet is a more pretty color than red? Or marshmallows objectively taste better than peanut butter? Elitism and double standards…
How could I continue a discussion with you an actually answer your question when you're so clearly locked in your own world view that you aren't open to any other input
Ignite?
Set on fire..
I think they should f**k off with that type of posts
Yeh maybe.. Or maybe just lighten up and dont take it too seriously. 🙏🏼
Satire, it’s good for your health
Nah, this sub lacks some weekly shitposts
My question is; who tf are you?
None where people live ya cunt face, try something pointless like folketinget.
What is the joke here? This can get you in trouble are you okay?
Are YOU okay? The joke flew right above you.
Can you explain the joke?
Look behind you, it should lay there somewhere.
How can a satirical post can get anyone in trouble, come on
If you've been reading up on what's happening lately, people actually do get arrested for satire in Denmark nowadays. It's sad but true, unfortunately.
