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 38 points 7 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 19 points 7 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 7 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 76 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Sounds like something a fat stupid American would say.

[-] UnRelatedBurner@sh.itjust.works 26 points 7 months ago

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

fat stupid American

AKA an American.

[-] WoodlandAlliance@lemm.ee 14 points 7 months ago

As an American I approve

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 13 points 7 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 19 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 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 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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

[-] ExLisper@linux.community 11 points 7 months ago

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

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago

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

[-] Globulart@lemmy.world 18 points 7 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.

[-] _number8_@lemmy.world 38 points 7 months ago

Have they finally rebuilt the city since the war?

[-] sexy_peach@feddit.de 12 points 7 months ago

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