Rolf Miller - Ich sag nix

Nobody says nothing quite as beautifully as Rolf Miller. The press calls it "a stellar hour of stuttering and stumbling"... something you can't stop laughing at, which is exactly why you don't immediately notice the abysses Miller is quietly concealing from you.

Always indirect, always incidental, almost detached - this brilliant satirist slips the meaningless void of our existence past us with a brutal instinct for the unspoken. Don't live your life, dream your dream, because the destination is in the way. - Uh, what!? - Exactly. Miller shows you the dream of your goals.

But does ICH SAG NIX also stand for "is everything still allowed to be said"? - "When women argue, the devil sits in the corner and takes notes." Are we still allowed to laugh at that? Or is it being censored by 3 Sat, Pro 7 and the like out of political hypercorrectness, because the fun police there no longer understand satire due to intellectual mutilation? And is Miller himself perhaps too cowardly, dodging the hard stuff, preferring to say nothing voluntarily? He doesn't need some uptight system drone to silence him...

No: Rolf Miller couldn't care less. On the contrary - everyone has the right to be insulted, mocked, and roughed up. It's a matter of style how the cruelties that sweeten life are administered. We forgive Miller the poison - he can't help it. It stays dark, it stays mean. The HOW matters, not the WHAT. The gleeful disgust rolls on. If you have a problem with any of the following sentences, you'd better skip Miller's show: Family planning is always hostage-taking and blackmail rolled into one / When your BMI is higher than your IQ / No means no, but yes means yes / What was the mood like in the GDR: kept within limits / Not every Arab is a terrorist, but every terrorist is an Arab / Sperm donors:Esses

So - maybe we'll see each other.
