[Repost] WWN's European Stereotypes
Violence Seth
Here's the original article: Here
The French
Arrogant, cowardly. Addicted to wine, surrender. Love to go on strike. Insecure; they started false rumours about themselves being passionate lovers. Hard drinkers.
The Germans
Boring, practical, boringly practical about mass extermination. Busty women handing out beers. Think they’re in charge of Europe again. A truly beautiful sounding language. Hard drinkers.
The British
Getting on with one another harmoniously. Arrogant, ignorant, imperious (which they mistakenly think is a compliment of some sort). Believe anything if it’s written on the side of the bus. Posh snobbish neanderthal hooligans. Hard drinkers.
The Spanish
Like bickering among themselves. Bullfighting paellas. Don’t understand how the letters ‘L’ and ‘Y’ work. Sleep during the day which explains the high unemployment levels. ‘Passionate’ = annoyingly loud. Hard drinkers.
The Italians
We feel like this might have been a PR drive done by the Germans sometime during the first half of the 20th Century but…greasy? A country filled with moustachioed brothers who run a plumbing business together, known for their dangerous driving. Really embracing this far right thing. Stole the idea for pizza from Dominos. Hard drinkers.
The Dutch
Windmills, waffles, whining. Frugal. Lowland living, soon to be drowned. Clog wearing cannabis drenched bicycling flower lovers. Unlike the English, not keen on boasting about their colonialism. Hard drinkers.
The Belgians
Less famous sort-of-Dutch. Love beer and chocolate. Too many languages. Good at football (for now). Landlords to the EU. All look eerily like Tintin. Hard drinkers.
The Swedes
Attractive women. 1-in-3 Swedes star in their own bleak and acclaimed detective crime drama about women being murdered. Progressive. Run by evil feminists who believe multi-cultural vegan equality. 110% tax for the rich. Depressing dark winters. Hard drinkers.
The Austrians
Discount store Germans. Beer. Think the Winter Olympics are the real Olympics. Get none of the blame for birthing Hitler. Hard drinkers.
The Bulgarians, Czech Republicans, Estonians, Romanians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Slovakians, Slovenians etc.
Culturally, socially and economically distinctive and diverse countries which are never lumped in together under one generalised stereotype of Communism and vodka. Hard drinkers.
The Polish
Also Communism and vodka. According to xenophobic elderly Aunts in Ireland and Britain, “there’s no one left in Poland as they all moved over here”. Thinks conservative Catholicism is a competition they must win. Hard drinkers.
The Danish
A multilayered, laminated sweet pastry in the viennoiserie tradition. Hard drinkers.
The Finnish
Sauna loving, vodka drinking depressives. Rude about it too. Hard drinkers.
The Croatians
Sun-kissed patriots. Stood idly by as Daenerys set fire to Dubrovnik. Named European capital of attractive women 5 years in a row. Hard drinkers.
The Greeks
Broken economy. Breaking plates. Home to the world’s only homosexuals islands. Invoice for inventing democracry still unpaid. Hard drinkers.
The Hungarians
Rude, pessimistic ghoulash eating, part-time immigrant haters. Budapest held in high esteem after kindly helping other European cities with the burden of giving students a cheap place to drink and vomit for the weekend. Hard drinkers.
The Irish
No defined stereotypes. Forward thinking, intelligent and attractive. Hard drinkers.
The Portuguese
Not Spain. Sound like a washing machine malfunctioning when speaking. Lazy afternoon nap takers. Fish and wine. Surprised they haven’t invented fish wine. Late for everything. Hard drinkers.
The Luxembourgers
Financial Bermuda triangle. Further research required to establish if this place is even real. Hard drinkers.
The Maltese
Population was driven off island to make more room for tax loopholes and havens. Hard drinkers.
The Cypriots
Hairy. Not Turkey. Not Greece. Lots of Goats. Hard drinkers.
Hope you all have a greet weekend! I'll be at the lab, researching...
Sláinte!

I like the most Irish one. No defined stereotypes. Forward thinking, intelligent and attractive. It's so cute. 😁
🐐
holy crap, did you notice that EACH AND EVERY ONE of those sections began with "the". That must prove something about ... well, something to do with stereotypes.. We need more information- Im voting for it and giving 100IEP to support further research.
PS- don't bother researching RL Canadians. The only two things you need to remember about us is: 1) We put our national rodent on the five cent piece, and 2) anytime someone asks "tell us about being Canadian", we start off with "well, we're not like the Americans ..." (sad, but true).
thanks for the laugh
