Only true for the south. Northern Italy has low rates of unemployment and people are hard workers.

Central Italians like Tuscans are very loud, the rest, not so much.

More exaggerated in the south, but all regions are guilty of that to some extent.

The average Italian consumes 25kg of pasta per year if I'm not mistaken. That's a lot.

Something about how their plugs are wank so they can't have kettles and thus microwave all water, which is a really dangerous thing to do because you can superheat it beyond boiling point due to how it warms water and it can explode in your face if you disturb the water.

As an outsider I can judge the UK without any sort of bias.

They are very nice. They're not false with it, but they are fundamentally good people. Less so in Scotland, but still. The food isn't great, but their breakfasts are the best in the world and their fast food is quite good. You can eat well but its expensive. They are quite fat. There aren't nearly as many Muslims as I was expecting and hardly any black people. They do drink a lot and nightlife is violent, lots of police and fights in front of bars. English pubs are excellent and serve better quality and stored beer than anywhere I have been outside Belgium.

It rains frequently but not heavily and their houses are very well built. I like it here. It, and the people, have many flaws but at least they are obvious so you can stay away.

Germans are , as groups, rather keen in following rules and social expectations.

If you have loud music during the week after 22, you might get a visig from the police as someone called them due to the noise.

Wasserkocher. Water +cook and -er ending to show that its a male ghing doing it.

If you like you can also have the neutral Wasserkoch, which sounds like aperson who cooks water though or the female Wasserkocherin.

Only the male form is correct though.

Kettle implies more old fashioned metal stuff and less induction heating outside of machines.

I now realised that it sort of makes sense to call those things a kettle....still seems wrong.

A device to heat

I hate our political culture.

People seem unable to process the fact that two opposing oppinions can both be "right".

So mostly, in non collegial environments, there is fast front development.

See refuge shit.

Either you support it unquestioningly or you are a scared, close minded, dark german fascist.

Or if you are not against it , you are an enriching, terrorist enabling, culture and prideless leftie.

We could learn a bit from the british here instead of trying to "defeat" the ideological opposition as fast as possible.

Most plywood boxes only have 120V power sockets while civilised countries typically use 240V, meaning it takes roughly double the time to heat an electric kettle in the U.S. making it very slow

Just imagine that for a second. Imagine having to wait upwards of five-six minutes (possibly even longer) just for a good warm cup of tea... Bloody mental that is. There's not many things that'll make me shed a tear for a y*nk but that'll do it

Not sure if some of you seriously think this but most people have a metal kettle we heat on the stove. If you have a gas stove it heats faster than an electric element. If you microwave just straight water you can horribly burn yourself.

Thats why we have standard german and every hillbilly who writes as he talks is WRONG.

I am from the south and it costs a lot of work to get people from regions with heavy dialect to be able to write correctly.

>Speaking even more.

Best case scenario is being able to switch between the two.
Worst case having a shitty thung in between.

Thats how most german sub languages struggle, luckily people try to keep it alive.

Accurately representing pronounciation is pretty much impossible because of the diversity of the language, however it's still weird that English only uses 26 letters for about 44 phonemes. Also there are redundant letters like c which could be replaced with either s or k, which adds to the problem.
