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.

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 36 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] loutr@sh.itjust.works 18 points 10 months ago

As a Frenchman who's really into live music I would, and I do! Yeah I know, COVID and shit but in the middle of a festival, having a blast and surrounded by like-minded people, if you ask nicely and I have some to spare I'll give you a joint without thinking twice!

[-] msage@programming.dev 15 points 10 months ago

If you are in the middle of the festival, the joint won't transmit that much more Covid than just being together.

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.

Every single European stereotype is true.

[-] Globulart@lemmy.world 77 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Sounds like something a fat stupid American would say.

[-] UnRelatedBurner@sh.itjust.works 24 points 10 months ago

I see what you did there, but fyi I'm from middle Europe

[-] ExLisper@linux.community 9 points 10 months ago

There's no such thing as Middle Europe. Oder river separates Western Europe from Eastern Europe. That's it.

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 12 points 10 months ago

I think we found the Wise Old Fat Man of the River

fat stupid American

AKA an American.

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

how many layers deep is this? the stereotypical european would say something like that. Or is that the joke and I'm just too simple to understand?

[-] Globulart@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Haha it's absolutely the joke mate.

I, a European, objected to being stereotyped in any way so I proved the point by being oblivious to myself doing the exact same thing.

I don't think all Americans are fat and stupid. Some are actually pretty thin as it goes...

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Absolutely! I actually met the thin one at a conference once

[-] ExLisper@linux.community 11 points 10 months ago

Hey, I also met the thin American once. Small world....

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

as a fat stupid american, thank you for explaining the joke, mate

[-] Globulart@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

No worries you adorably chubby simpleton you :) x

Now if you excuse me, I have to get back to not visiting the dentist and having a more advanced sense of humour than you.

What he was trying to politely say is β€œI’m not sharing my joint with vous”

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 35 points 10 months ago

Which stereotype refuses punctuation?

[-] goldgate@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Same stereotype which has a bad school system.

Have they finally rebuilt the city since the war?

[-] sexy_peach@feddit.de 14 points 10 months ago

It's mostly shitty pre WW2 buildings... They do look nice and give the city character I guess.

Americans are so dumb they think β€œEuropeans” are a thing. It’s a continent. 50 countries with 50 different cultures.
