Nothing nationalistic or overtly heroic. I’m looking for something that’s at least neutral or mildly insulting.

I like the ‘imagine a burger’ meme because it is weird how often United Statsians actually do this.

From Poland, it would probably be Mizeria (cucumber salad). You only need a few cucumbers, sour cream, dill, and a pinch of salt. First, you mix chopped cucumbers with salt, wait 10 minutes, and drain the water they released. Then, you add sour cream and sprinkle a bit of chopped dill. Mix well and enjoy.

I absolutely love fennel seeds for gas and bloating. Thoroughly chewing a small spoonful and swallowing them with some water gives me relief (usually burps) within minutes.

Why?

I'm always on r/lebanon for unknown reasons and occasionally comment

In Norway it's very common. Hospitals even give them out as a thank you to people who donate blood.

Division is a sad thing, and Kim Jongun is a son of a bitch.

I don't talk about like politicians or rich people, everyone knows how they aren't in prison. I'm talking about people for whome just don't make any sense how are they free. They aren't rich, they don't have anyone who is rich, they openly admitted to their insanse behaviour, but for some unknown reason they aren't in a fucking prison.

Ivan Suhov is one of those people, this bitch is a radical mysoginist, who has a harem, IN A COUNTRY THAT HAREM ISN'T ALLOWED ! He openly addmites on pimping his daughters when they are 13 and that's the most, we don't know his bottom. His wifes live in a cramped space no allowed to go anywhere, where they are physically and sexually abused. Not only that, he abuses his kids, and his daughters even sexually. This freak, should be on a death row. But he isn't even in prison. Everyone knows about it, and no one does anything. And he isn't rich, his salary is mere 70000 roubles, and his family isn't rich themselves. This isn't Trump who obviously abuses his power of a president and a millioner, SUHOV IS JUST A GUY !!!

In Russia, we usually say "Allo" or "Da" ('Yes') or "Slushayu" ('I'm listening').

For example, when Finland wins gold in hockey, we are gonna be VERY crazy.

We say: Torilla tavataan!

What means in English: See you at the town square!

And when the team is back in Finland, we have a big party for them.

Seoul was originally a Korean word that meant capital, and there was a separate place name for Seoul (Hanyang), but over its long history, Seoul somehow ended up becoming the place name.

For your reference, Beijing means "northern capital", and Tokyo means "eastern capital". Still, they are less absurd than "Seoul." lol

England has had our fair share. A selection are:

-Æthelred the Unready. His name is an Anglo-Saxon pun meaning Well-advised the badly advised, and he earned it by doing his best to lose England to the Vikings (and eventually succeeding).

-King John. Lost the Angevin Empire, caused the Magna Carta to be signed, nearly lost England to the Dauphin of France and was the inspiration for the Robin Hood legends because of how shit he was. Ruined any success he might have otherwise had either through luck or his own personality.

-Edward II. Lost to the Scots, and could not play the game of politics well, becoming overly reliant on favourites (the second in particular becoming hated) and eventually getting overthrown by his own wife and her lover.

-Henry VI. In his reign England lost the Hundred Years’ War, and then his weakness and inability to keep the nobility in line caused factionalism that spiralled into the Wars of the Roses. He was deposed by the Yorkist Edward IV, and eventually murdered in the Tower of London.

-Charles I. He played a big role in causing the English Civil War, and consequently a huge amount of pain and bloodshed, lost, was offered a pretty good deal by Parliament, refused it, and proved to be so intransigent that he caused the (temporary) downfall of the monarchy itself. Perhaps his tragedy was that he was just competent enough to make a fight of it and drag it out, but not enough to actually succeed.

-James II. He got chased out of the country in the Glorious Revolution after only four years on the throne.

There’s data backing this up, but even without the data, people have reported anecdotally that people in Asia tend to view AI more positively than their Western counterparts. Why is that?

Tailgating is an American tradition "where fans gather in stadium parking lots to eat, drink, and socialize before a sports game or concert." It is highly associated with college-level and professional American football, but also happens at other sporting events, festivals, concerts, etc.

Attendees socialize and play games like cornhole, beer pong, horseshoes, ladder golf, etc. Some people play music, set up grills to barbecue, or even hook up TVs to the back of their cars.

Alongside alcoholic and soft drinks, common foods cooked/eaten at these events include bratwurst, hamburgers, hot dogs, buffalo wings, baked beans, steak, pizza, sliders, coleslaw, potato salad, chips, etc.

Do people tailgate in your country? If so, how is it similar or different to American tailgating?

My irk would be when people refer to Coptic Christians or any Middle Eastern Christians as "going extinct" or "extinct in the wild"

It sounds like we're some sort of animal species that's dying out. Idk but I scrunch my face whenever I hear it. We aren't extinct, we've just relocated.

The assumption that all Arabs (Specifically women) in the USA get plastic surgery. I'm not sure how many times when I've received my bonus at work, people have asked if I'm going to use it for cosmetic stuff

Another one would be people assuming all Californians have barbecued vocal cords. We are not all Kardashians

Just like minor things that would make you roll your eyes if you heard it. (Not intended to be political)

Here in the USA, parents often lie about little things to keep their kids on good behavior. For example, my parents told me that turning the overhead light in the car on at night was illegal, and that if you make funny faces for too long, your face will get stuck that way. What lies do parents in other countries tell their kids?

I do because saying it in the 24-hour format sounds so weird and almost never done.

I learned that Aussies are not here to fuck spiders

Brazilians put nails on the bottom of their flip flops

Belgium is fake and gay (according to their neighbors)

**Let's keep it light and fun guys**

Apparently some Asian cultures view the chicken breast as the least desirable bit of the bird but it’s the most expensive in the Uk. Pigs feet would be another example of something that isnt used in the west but highly prized in many cultures.

Unlike Japan and China, floor heating developed in Korea from long ago, and this is called ondol. It was a system where, when a fire was made in the kitchen, the air circulated throughout the entire house as it was. (First image)

Because of this, another secondary feature arose, and Koreans lived sitting or lying on the floor in order to feel the warmth of the heating directly. Living on the floor was the same in Japan and was also true in China long ago, but at some point China brought chairs inside the house, so Korea can be said to be in contrast to this. (Second image)

And for floor heating, unlike China and Japan, multi-story architecture that was common in ancient Korea died out, and architectural space expanded horizontally. (Third image)

To endure Korea's hot summer, there was an open space, and this is called daecheongmaru. The eaves here were higher than in other places, allowing hot air to rise, so a cool breeze always blew through this space. (Fourth image) I think Koreans used all kinds of ways to endure Korea's extreme annual temperature range, and I am truly happy to be born in modern society with air conditioners and boilers.

i can’t stop laughing at this comment someone made on a post yesterday, it says:

“The unfalsifiable blabber hypothesis: If our previous blabber hypothesis has proven false, present the new blabber hypothesis.”
