What does the AG of Intamin AG stand for?

Guessing it's this:

Clicky Here!

I know that's German and Intamin are Swiss, but still, it's the only one that makes sense?

^Ah, but don't forget that German is by far the most widely spoken language in Switzerland:

Thanks!

I was under the impression that it stood for amusement group.

 

[Lofty]

Your impression was wrong, it stands for the above

The GmbH after Gerstauler means the same sort of thing.

*the more you know*

 

[Ben]

^Only if "same sort of thing" is a broad generalization of "they're business terms"

Well, yeah.

Sorry if I have more to do with my life than go through the different types of trading companies, I get enough of that at work.

There's a difference between ACTUALLY expanding on something someone has said and trying to make that person look stupid because they don't speak German (although I know the difference without speaking German, aren't I clever?)

I'm not going to sit here silently and go "golly, UC has tried to make me look stupid because I've only posted something basic instead of going all in depth, but that's fine"...

So, yeah, sorry that I didn't follow it up with a discussion on the different types of company, that doesn't make me stupid or give you the right to be all bitchy in your reply.

 

[Ben]

Sorry UC, when your posts are bitchy and condescending (this is every post, btw), I'm going to reply. Simple.

 

[Ben]

You didn't "correct" anything - my point was that they are both business abbreviations stuck on the end of a name. This is true. You will notice I said "same sort of thing" not "same thing".

I didn't edit that post - I'm not the only one who can edit my posts. This is me correcting you.

And there is no bigger provoking reason than the idea of having to look at another of your inane ramblings and word vomit dressed up as a "post" in the hope whoever it's directed at will go "eh, wish I cared enough to reply" so you can claim another "victory".

Oh for **** sake...

Ben said it was just another business term, UC elaborated. I thought this was just how things worked... clearly not. Stop bitching at each other, it's ridiculous.
