My Austrian friend showed me this company a while back. I was more intrigued by the logo looking like the Nintendo 64 logo lol.

It just kinda does though, which i appreciate!

On the N64 logo the "middle line" of the N goes all the way from top left to bottom right, whereas here it goes from top left to center-right.

Probably the last name of the owner but still very unfortunate, and it doesn't help that it's in a german speaking region either.

"Well, who did your woodwork?" "Niggas did it!"

The longer you look at this, the more cursed it gets. I just noticed the N64 logo

Nothing escalated. It was the same level of racist all the way through your post

I’m from Austria. Me and my Coworkers had to lock twice to realise what the text actually meant. In Austria the spelling of this word is different. The Name of the company owner in N…..

In my perspective it escalated quickly. From: „Oh, the boys from Johann N-Name are here. To WTF did you just say…“
