Who do Europeans joke about most?

[in-love-with-language]

I love how Sweden is just like “haha Norway am I right?” and everyone else is just like “nope it’s you Sweden” And Italy jokes the most about itself I can’t

[borderline-surrealism-deactivat]

What about self-deprecating Italy, no-sense-of-humour Belorussia, and Hungary joking about Scotland for some reason?!

[wordsindifferentrhymes-blog]

If you want to read some of these jokes, here is the article from which the map has probably been taken, and in turn, here is the book where the jokes came from.

I can’t say I understand some of them, but hey, that’s culture!

The Prime Ministers of Germany and Austria met to exchange notes. – How are things in Germany? asked the Prime Minister of Austria. The German sighed: – Well, in Germany the situation is serious, he said, but not hopeless. – In Austria the situation is hopeless, the Austrian Prime Minister replied, but not serious.

The Austrians have lots of jokes that emphasize how disorderly and happy-go-lucky they are compared to their Teutonic neighbors

a) neither of these countries have a prime minister lmfao

b) tru

Quelqu’un qui parle deux langues est bilingue.

Quelqu’un qui ne parle qu’une langue est Anglais.”

Maudits rosbifs ! Tout vous est dû, hein !?

@stirringwind

@losthitsu how many language do you know by the way? I wager you’re way above the Slovak average, aren’t you? ;)

[stirringwinds]

Besides those of us who with roots outside the UK who know another language to some degree, indeed…England is probably worse than Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland where a number of ppl there likely know some Welsh, Scottish and Irish RIP 

I’m surprised at Portugal tho why

Christoph Waltz Explains Krampus to Jimmy Fallon

Christoph Waltz and Jimmy discuss the difference between Austrian and U.S. holiday traditions. Subscribe NOW to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: http:...

Happy Krampus day everyone! 

Okay, I know I said I’ll do a song of the day but this is one of my favourite videos of Christoph Waltz explaining the world. He is very eloquent in his explanation (as always!), when he explains our terrifying Austrian tradition. It’s just for fun! ;-)

But really… hope you haven’t been naughty or you’ll get thrown in the basket! Hehehe ;-P

Be safe tonight and beware of Perchten! Especially if you’re on skiing holidays in Tyrol…. then good luck! ;-P
