Elias Hirschl or When A Disappointing Baby Turns Out OK

I don't know whether it was my taller than average stature, my long hair or my hairy face with the bushy brows ... when I first met Elias Hirschl, he immediately burst out crying. That wasn't cool. 

Years passed and 17 or so years later Elias started to show promise when he got into film making and won some youth film prizes and shit. He went on to start a career in literature, performing in poetry slams and publishing books. 

2021 he put out his, I think, fourth novel and gained public attention for its capturing of the current political Zeitgeist in Austrian domestic affairs. 

He is also involved in several musical projects - the clip below "Tschuldigung" (german for "Sorry") is the latest on his Youtube channel.

I'll take this late apology for his initial off putting behaviour and declare the kid turned out alright.
