USA summarized from a Finns perspective:

>people are nice and open, strangers will talk to you all the time
>the wages are measured yearly, depending on state 75K-100K is good
>businesses have a lot of competition, but a big market
>rent 1500 dollars minimum
>you can get a mansion for that
>the neighbourhood you live in has a HUGE significance
>girls are ugly and full of themselves, not wife material (in comparison finnish girls are god tier)
>ethnic minorities are dangerous for real, you can get stabbed in the middle of the day
>cars are cheap
>maintaining them is expensive
>insurance is REALLY expensive, but basically obligatory, my friend had his shoulder dislocated and fixing it (took 30sec) cost him 20 000 dollars.. the insurance only covered 12k
>restaurant food is tasty as hell, cheap and diverse
>what americans eat in their homes is something awful
>you must leve tip for service people, for example a weitress has a hourly salary of 5-10 dollars plus tips
>americans are stupid, basically if you know how to add 10+15 in your head you are super talented according to the locals
>you have a chance of being a broke homeless person or a billionaire
>variety in clothes is suprisingly limited (!) everyone follows trends, for example one slut told me that i can go to her party but i have to buy the same clothes everyone else has, fuck that
>because everyone lives on credit, i think that americans don't know what self-discipline is, basically i want that --> i'm going to buy that

all and all a 3/5 country (i think finland is a 3,5/5)

USA MENTIONED :DDDDDDDDDD

>USA summarized from a Finns perspective:
shit + shot
no thanks, we are more "free" anyway.

Americans are stupid because most of them are either narrow specialists or just servicemen
Plus everything in usa is made by algorithms
Its good but if someone of ur parents wont teach u how to react when there is no algorithms they can be quite smart
Thats why u see so much police dashcam shootings
Dem idiots dont act acording to poloce instructions and algorithm

People with low skills overestimate their intelligence. This applies to populaces too, the measure of human intelligence is accomplishment and skill.. You're stuck in the limbo other developing worlders have of thinking you're smarter than dominant nations, but your actions say otherwise. Kazakhstan's low economic skill and accomplishment belies an intellectually mediocre populace

Finland is 10/5

>>52186045
What state(s) did you visit?
>>
>>52186997
No, our population is just an ex commie, most of the babushkas and some putinbots think that free market is bad
Gubernment must solve all ur problems.
Thats why our economy sucks.
>>
>>52187555
It's not really aimed at you, just the unskilled world in general. Smart people are not dominated or outsmarted by the dumb
>>
Plus fortunately our dictator is transforming the country into super capitalist without free healthcare,without free schools
After 2.3 decades population will get accustomed to it.
>>
>>52186045
>1500 dollar minimum
i live on 700 a month in rent
And the people here tend to only be really knowledgable in the one topic they're usually employed in or majored in. My mother for example knows close to everything about criminology but will draw a blank on close to math and literature, and she's a housewife.
People here can do basic math easily, but reading, math and spelling are pretty faulty, even for college-educated adults.
Everything else is spot on and relatively bias-less.
Better then Brits who think the whole country is Florida.

Party at the White House tonight!

where did you visit?

>>52186045
went to usa two times myself, i agree on everything you said.

except
>people are nice and open, strangers will talk to you all the time
it's true and not true, What they are is two-faced. They act all nice but a lot of the time it's just fake-nice.
>>
>>52187964
>fake nice
I legitimately try to be nice to everyone until the second they appear to display negative emotions.
>>
>>52186045
I would agree with all this

>>52187877
>better then
>better than*
>>
>>52186997
>belies
Fails to justify? Or did you have some other meaning in mind?
>>
>>52187964
You must be a slav or eastern european to say so
I lived with french mech engineer
I can say the same for french, he used to discuss me with his friends and neighbours but be fake nice with me

>USA summarized from a Finns perspective:

I don't think many Americans could summarize Finland since we only here you mentioned every few year at the Olympics.

>>52187960
This is from what Finns see on TV.
>>
>>52188139
Not at all fellow accomplished nation
>>
I smirkerd when i heard americans complaining and making jokes about gas prices in the us and how it was crazy expensive, like very big deal !

It's still way cheaper than in europe ... what would they say here


>>52188086
No lad, what i meant is that Americans are fake. Even between themselves. Not to me particularly. I actually liked them being (fake) nice to me, because i don't give a shit about them but it still feels really good to have gentle people talking to you.
>>
>>52188453
>Americans are fake. Even between themselves.
To complete strangers yeah, you just want to smile and say hello and get on with your day. But I never had "fake friends". If anyone does, then you should really carefully choose your friends
>>
I'd give it a 14/88
>>
>>52188141
>This is from what Finns see on TV
not at all
>>
>>52186045

Lol, ranking your own country 3.5/5. Not too far off, but niggers will not kill you if you stay away from them, and you can be a 100,000 dollar earner if you aren't retarded.

My knowledge of Finland:
> White
> Hates Russia

Good enough for me.
>>
>>52190186

Also health insurance isn't THAT expensive.
>>
>>52190186
>niggers will not kill you if you stay away from them
How is this a contradiction to OP?
>>
>some areas have a lot of really appearance-centered people
>at the same time elsewhere, "meanwhile in walmart" type fart-sweatpants-extremely-obese people
>Indeed, the part of town you live in has a huge difference. the elite lives with each other as does the middle class and a separately the ghetto hoods
>massive gates, ramparts and a barbed-wire fences around the houses in many places is normal
>homicides are common
>fast food places every 100 meters
>''refill culture'', ie unlimited soda from the fast food places
>the average American does not know how to cook, at least not the males
>transport culture pretty shit-tier, 99% bad drivers because drivers licenses are very easy to get
>The TV does not work like in Finland (put in the cable and watch), instead you will need to subscribe to a cable provider which will cost you easily $ 100/month
>you dont buy plastic bags in the grocery store, instead the casheer or a separate "bagger" put the groceries in these shit tier paper bags which are way too small and dont stand almost any weight
>the nations favorite activity of is consumerism, buy buy buy buy
>everything is commercialized to the extreme, for example they start to sell christmas stuff in stores as early as October and as soon as the previous season ends a new theme hits the shelves immediately
>the promised land of flavour combinations, so fucking weird flavors in strange contexts, apple-pie-vanilla-jello-icecream -chewing gum and the like.
>legislations with alcohol are strict, eg. you cant have any alcoholic beverages open in the car, even on the passengers
>on the other hand whiskey is available at every grocery store
>customer service in the private sector 5/5
>customer service in all the state institutions 0/5
>>
>>52186122
>we are more "free"

No you aren't. Not in terms of negative liberty. Your quite a nanny state.
>>
>>52186045
A fairly fair, if a little bit biased, assessment

I appreciate the lack of animosity towards Americans.
