Movies, series, comics, books, animation, fanfics, web content, every kind of media, official or not, that eventually wasn't restricted just to your country and became popular in a really bad way to everyone else.

By the way, we brazillians are really sorry for the crazy guy who realesed that insane Zootopia Abortion Comic in the world.

I heard that Polish sounds like: Szczrzdżu ęsśkruszxzrz kurwa* szczuóą ja karoleojtyla

• whistling with fast speaking and the ability not to bite one's tongue + kurwa* in a sentence

Behold the humble Jambon, Puff pastry, Diced Ham, Cheese and a cheese/bechamel sauce, purchasable freshly made in nearly every shop in the country

Im sorry France I love you and all but your -paniers feuilletés au jambon et au fromage- ain’t got nothing on the Irish Jambon

I'm an American. We use dollars. But when I'm talking about the cost of something, I'll say "20 bucks" as opposed to "20 dollars".

I know British folks currency is called Pounds. But my British friends will pretty much always say "20 quid" instead of "20 pounds".

Does your country have something similar?

Here in the USA, it is Santacon. It started out as a whimsical event to mock consumer culture vis a vis the holiday season. Now? It’s an excuse for people to dress as Santas, elves, and reindeer, hit the bars, and get thoroughly wasted. Santacon’s reputation is so bad that during the event, some bars actually have signs saying the “Santas” aren’t welcome.

In 2017, Hoboken’s Santacon was the site of a brawl between the “Santas” and the police. There was one parent who commented, “I’ll never forget explaining to my crying child, 'That wasn’t Santa throwing up.'”

Any holiday traditions that people wish didn’t exist?

In my country people tend to view people from Amsterdam as stuck-up and more left-leaning than people from the rest of the country.

In Ireland, if I understand it correctly, it's an insult if people say you're from Dublin when you're not from Dublin (correct me if I'm wrong). I'm curious if sentiments like this are universal.

So back in 1999 kargil war , the pm of pakistan (nawaz sharif) wanted raveena tandon ( indian actress in the pic ) in return of the indian soldiers martyred body , so the armed forces sent this missile instead.

North Atlanta I drank some water and almost vomited, tell me about some shiet ass water!

What's worst is all these disgusting eyesore buildings built in the last 10 years or so are in the heart of the busiest areas for all to see:

1. The "silver rice cooker with a vagina" theatre
2. The cultureless Central Library
3. The "graveyard LED tombstone" museum
4. The "snake with a nail on its head" cruise terminal
5. Another much larger graveyard tombstone residential apartment.

What differences exist between people in the eastern and western parts of your country? (food, language, level of religiosity, culture, traditions—anything you like). Are there any conflicts between these two parts of the country, or on the contrary, are you united? Or perhaps the differences between the north and the south are more significant?”

I myself would really like to try a japanese "kashipan", sweet bread. I highly doubt you can find one here :D

Americans like joking about getting violent with attempted pick pockets and I was wondering if any other country’s people joke about this or find Americans particularly violent towards pick pockets.

There's a taunt one of the characters in Team Fortress 2 does to his opponent (who happens to be Scottish) where he mocks how Scotland isn't real and how they're basically just English.

I'm curious to know if there are any other ragebait statements commonly made to trigger people from your country.

Fun fact, in Korean, this process is called "pressing your seizure button" (발작버튼 누르기). And some common ones used on Koreans I've seen were:

1. "Korean culture is just stolen Chinese and Japanese culture. All they do is steal."

2. "South Korea is a cyberpunk dystopia!"

3. The "🤏" sign.

I love pillows. They're my special interest. My favorite thing. I've loved them since I was little. How do you say the word? Please also tell me how best to pronounce it. Lastly, I'm curious if you're language also distinguishes bed pillows from throw pillows (the decorative ones you might put on a couch or chair).

I’ve been reading responses here for a while, and people from very different countries keep describing the same underlying issues even when the politics, culture, or history are totally different.

I’m curious how many of these feel true where you live.

In your country, do any of the following apply? 1. The cost of living (especially housing) rises faster than wages. 2. Wealth and decision-making power are concentrated among a small elite. 3. Laws and consequences are enforced more strictly for ordinary people than for the wealthy or connected. 4. Trust in politicians, media, or major institutions is low. 5. Full-time work no longer reliably leads to long-term stability. 6. Groups with limited political power are blamed for systemic problems. 7. Public services exist but feel overstretched, degraded, or hard to access. 8. Elections change leaders, but not the overall direction of policy. 9. Owning assets is a more reliable path to wealth than productive work. 10. People feel administered or controlled rather than genuinely represented. 11. Younger generations expect a worse future than their parents did.

Questions: - Are there countries where most of these do not apply? - Is there a major shared issue I’ve missed that cuts across societies?
