Made by an Italian?

Scandinavia is more about beer than vodka btw.

These maps are reminiscent of the accuracy and care with how the British divided up nations half way across the world.

Those poor Ukrainians who are working all the time but are still considered lazy

Anyway, how's your Brexit life?

Is it a stereotype that British work hard? I thought the stereotype is that they are always drunk.

Eh, yes. We do.

Never call the Irish British

Apart from the location of some of those lines, I find this accurate

How could you say something so objectively racist and yet so true 🥲

I'm a fat uncultured American. People eat while walking????

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I think that’s more metaphoric. Us Americans have a ton of eating on the go. Drive thrus, pop tarts. Southern Europe is all about big sit down meals

[–] Pickle_Jr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 months ago

Ah that makes sense. In that case, I am team walking food!

The good cuisine/bad cuisines legend looks like the Irish flag. Coincidence? I think not...
