As a french, I'm sick about pretty blond girls that ask about everything because they are blond girls... Yes you're beautiful, no it's not a pass you can use anytime.
yeah but, like, would you share your joint with anyone? In my culture, if you're with friends, you puff and pass. But i don't think that applies to strangers walking up and asking you for a hit.
And friends are a maybe, like I’m more likely to just pull another out of my pocket for someone I’d call a friend and just say fuckit here have a full one bud.
Tiny bit of backstory: I work in Spain so there's a lot of kissing on the chicks when greeting someone. Spanish people kiss twice, in western countries people kiss 3 times so sometimes there's a bit of confusion. Anyway, once a girl from Romania met a French co-worker next to my desk. Typical greeting and she says:
- How do French people kiss?
The guy got a little bit confused and says:
- Trust me, you don't want me to show you how the French kiss...
Not really related but I found it extremely funny.
We in Chile we kiss only once. Right side of the face. The fist time I greeted a spanish woman I was confused as hell.
This could be used as a pickup line or something lol
In France, they kiss between one and four times depending on the region, it's infuriating. I've just decided to not kiss any more. It's a stupid tradition, and it's a great way to catch colds anyway.
I'm french and the only 3-time country I know is Switzerland
Dutch/I think some Belgians also do 3. I'm sure there's some random place in France that would do that also.
Every single European stereotype is true.
especially as you go more and more to the east
No, most Lithuanians are not gangsters or hookers, we just exported those abroad.
This gets bad quickly

My brain changed the second word to Rammstein.
I'm just imagining Germans running around shouting "Du" at each other.

What he was trying to politely say is “I’m not sharing my joint with vous”
fuck why can't i live in europe. almost every day i have the opposite experience where a well meaning midwest person tries to be friendly and my brain just...stalls and does something like this
Which stereotype refuses punctuation?
Same stereotype which has a bad school system.
Punctuation doesn't grow on trees!
(I realise that would have worked better without the exclamation mark)
Every middle-aged German man is named Thomas. No exceptions.
Lol, the French one is true and I had no idea
They're almost an equivalent price now, thanks to taxes on cigarettes.
Was gonna say, I don't smoke but I was in upstate NY and a guy gave me a $20 to grab him a pack of smokes from a corner store while I was running in to grab a snack, and I thing I got like $1 and change back. I was appalled.
My cigarettes cost me $0.04.21 each, but when I smoked I rolled my own with a Top-O-Matic. An entire month worth of smokes still would only cost me $42.
Any about Romanians?
stealing
romania (and the rest of eastern europe) have almost non-existent theft rates compared to literally all of western/northern europe, except for spain and portugal because everyone in those two are poor so there's nothing to steal anyways
generally the more prosperous/capitalist the people in a country are the higher the rates of stealing are. this says a lot about our society
To understand Romanian culture, first you must understand şmecherie (more an in-joke than a stereotype, but whatever, I stand by it).
Adevărat
Magyar ?
Hit me with some polish ones, i want to know
I don't know any Polish stereotypes, but I do know a Polish joke.
Why does The New Polish Navy have glass bottomed ships?
::>!So you can see The Old Polish Navy!<::
I once was hiking in the Tatras and upon reaching a part that was more difficult, heaved a sigh and said "Pizdec". Everybody laughed, even people from further away.
Well depend on which side you were, in Czech it means iirc "fuck", in Polish we have related word "piździec", usually used in "ale piździec" or "ale piździ" which means roughly "it's windy as fuck here" - pretty relevant in Tatras.
Respond, yes they are the same price. This place doesn't sell cigarettes, I will sell you at same price as beer.
I would totally see myself doing that. You do me a favor I‘ll do you one. Simple as.
Sometimes true but not always. I've had coworkers from the UK all the way to the middle east who were always happy to buy drinks and were more generous, I suspect many from across the commonwealth, and greco roman world tend to take gifts of food more fairly.
Much of China having gone through multiple famines tends to have a different food culture though which probably makes people come off rude to each other
Yes, because no other country experiences famine
Why did you make up a reason to be offended?
Nobody said no other country experience it, so calm down.You seem otherwise cool so I'm just gonna wish you the best of luck with your pregnancy and happy weekend!
With the French guy on this. Weed is expensive even when legal, and if it's not, you really don't want to share it with any rando because you can get pegged for distribution.
Americans are so dumb they think “Europeans” are a thing. It’s a continent. 50 countries with 50 different cultures.
Is the European Union not a thing anymore? Does being a part of that not make you European? What does European mean if not for people who live in Europe?
To be fair America has 50 different states and a lot of them have totally different cultures. Texas compared to new york for example. Would that not make your statement equally as dumb?
Also lots of US states are bigger than European countries lul.
The European Union is a union and not a country, the EU is pretty irrelevant here since there are lots of Europeans that don't live in a member country. There are lots of cultural differences and languages.
Of course everyone in Europe is European but generalising Europeans that really doesn't have that much in common (except living in Europe) is most often pretty stupid. Europe is very diverse in culture, climate, economy, politics, etc.
US people: 50 countries of white people! that's not diversity!
