Haven’t heard many jokes about Poland since the 90s maybe early 2000s in Germany.
Really? Car theft jokes are still fairly popular in my experience.
I know they were, but I haven’t heard one for at least 20 years. Maybe we had too many polish seasonal workers in my town, but no stolen cars.
All this time we thought it was the Germans with no sense of humour. Turns out it was the Belarusians all along
As a german, I dont even know anything about Poland. Like that country would not really exist.
I’m at a loss - who is being made fun of by Northern Ireland?
This ist the rest green of the Irish flag in Britain.
I’d be interested to hear some bosnian jokes about Gemany
Why has Hungary got it in for the Scots?
I can’t speak about the Hungarians, but at least in Germany the scottish jokes are all about how they are penny pinchers and Scrooges.
Is it a joke if it’s true?
You go all the way to Scotland for that, instead of the Netherlands?
Usually, we joke about our domestic penny pinchers, the Swabians, first, before resorting to imported Jokes about the Scottish.
Italians apparently just joke about each other
Don’t forget that Italy is basically “The United States of Italy”
If you aren’t italian. You can’t even imagine the animosity between south and north italy. And frankly, in most cases it falls into essentially racism. Even between two adjacent cities. It’s appalling.
Nobody’s making fun of the Dutch. Good!
The Flemish part of Belgium is.
Thankfully. It wouldn’t be fun otherwise. But they’re not pictured on this map
Austria and Germany:
spoiler
As a Brit, I never joke about the Irish. I was fully expecting it to be a French flag. In fact, I was expecting the French flag to be there a lot
Scandinavian banter 101:
- When one country rips on another country, the 3rd country usually joins on the side of the offender.
Scandinavian banter 201:
- It’s usually between Danes and Swedes, with Norway either getting the popcorn or joining the offense.
- We rarely see the Finns join in, but they’re welcome if they want to.
Scandinavian banter, graduation:
- Sweden is obviously the inferior country.
EDIT: But if anyone outside of Scandinavia were to mock, for example, the swedes, we’ve got their backs. I recall something said a while back when Sweden wanted to join NATO, and Erdigan was raising a stink: “Sweden sucks balls. But Erdogan can gargle more of them”.
Just for the record: I know many swedes, most of whom are wonderful people.
Swede here, I don’t agree that we are the inferior country, but we are absolutely the teachers pet of Scandinavia, and deserve to be mocked like hell for that.
