How did they form? What are their specific traits? Stereotypes (even untrue, if marked as such)?
If cultural differences coincide with geography, please mention in, too.

In the questions about weird things people from different continents do somebody pointed out, that Europeans have little knowledge of this, so please fix my ignorance.

The calendar on Earth must be boring. Only one moon!

When I ask them a simple question and they answer with at least ten-sentences-long answer.
Jes, I do it too.

That eggs are made in factories. I still haven't made peace with this, and lurk around egg equivalents (I'm not vegan).

Also when I was in kindergarden, I had terrible idea about how the map of our village looks like.

Is it enforced? And... why?

Also when the leap years were introduced, the priests (who were to take care of the calendar) didn't understand what dis "every four years" mean, and used to put a leap year every three years.

Don't downvote options that don't apply to you.
Feel free to add new options, I did what I could to make it descriptive enough.

Once I met a Slovak guy with clearly polish surname, so I asked him wether he had polish ancestors. He genuinely didn't get why would I think something like that...

I have a bunch of a polyethylene net interwoven with a hay, which would be impossible to separate. What is the best way to ecologically dispose of it? Should I give it to separated plastic (so it would be burned in an incineration plant), or put it to the communal waste?

Also it inflates the meaning of the question. It took me quite a lot of time to realize that my friends ask me how I am and really want to know it.

(I'm not autistic fyi.)

I'm desktop-only user and never had any experience with Reddit/Lemmy apps, and the sentiment towards them confuzes me.
I can imagine that the third-party apps for Reddit were better (?not bugged?) than the official one. But what made you to love them? Was the experience even better than desktop use?

Feel free to write about both Reddit and Lemmy apps in your responses.

I'm on a train and the storm goes in the same direction. I'd like to get home sooner than the storm (I have no raincover), but I cannot do anything to speed up the things, which is quite frustrating.

Hi,
I'm going to travel through France at the end of July (cca. from Strasbourg to Perpignan) and I wonder if it's possible to get a lower price than what is calculated by sncf-connect.com.
Would going by lower-category trains pay of? (In such case, could you recommend me some points-in-middle, as the site wouldn't find a connection from Str. to Per. without TGV.)
Is it possible to buy regional tickets?

Thank you for any advice.

PS: Congratulations to your flourishing community!

(Another time I would just lurk around, but Lemmy needs content so I participe actively.)

Hi,
while adhering naturalistic worldview, I've been finding my way to paganism last year. I'm still figuring it out, I only know I have to venerate Earth, Water and the others.
I also find attractive to follow some parts of graeco-roman religion, but this is (for me) even more difficult task.

I hope this place would become a pleasant living community.

I wanted to join Reddit this week, and found it was going into "interesting times". So I joined Lemmy instead.
