As much as Bush loved to rip on the French, his official stance on Germany was to ignore them. Which, when you’re not even worthy enough of being scorned, can really bite deep.
They wanted Bush out, and they wanted him out bad. (So did ~90% of the world according to polls by the Economist). So when they got someone who was almost the complete opposite? Instant deification.
Seriously, my status over there went from “fucking American!” to “fuck yeah, an American!”
Heaven is where the British are the police, the French are the cooks, the Germans are the engineers, the Dutch run the government, and the Italians are the lovers.
Hell is where the Germans are the police, the British are the cooks, the French are the engineers, the Dutch are the lovers, and the Italians run the government.
Haha first time I hear this. Man that’s so true. Except for the Italians. I wouldn’t know about that, and I kind of doubt it. Then again, you have terrible politicians like Silvio Berlusconi, but he sure knows how to hump unsuspecting meter maids. Yeah I guess there’s some truth to it.
Isn’t “Obama Fried Chicken” the obvious way to go? Come on, Germany, we’re too PC to make something like that. Its up to you to pick up the slack. Chicken fingers are close to perfect, yet so far.
@...dieAntagonista: I think you’re the first European to look at the Italian government and not say, “What the fuck are they doing?”
The new-ish 2 party structure will help, but those political bombings in the 1970’s were ridiculous.

Whatever this is, I never saw it in a German supermarket.
Then again, I doubt most Germans would buy it…they’re no less PC than anyone else. Even more so, actually. Trying to overcompensate for something their ancestors did or whatever.
There’s a lot of this stuff in Germany.

inb4 bitching about the economy
What store are these from?
@...Paul_Is_Drunk:
It’s not like European fools, who insult an entire country just because they disagree with one man, matter anyway. But yeah, you’re right.
Also, this looks like garbage. Though German housewives can cook you the most amazing meals for sure.
*reads label* Ah…
No thank you. Seriously.
@...dieAntagonista: You reminded me of the old joke…

@...Paul_Is_Drunk:
Lol. I enjoy this joke.

@...nobody knows:
And Americans sit on their ass and enjoy it.

@...ColombianMonkey: Right.
I substituted the Swiss, because not only is my girlfriend Swiss, but my experience with the Swiss in general has proven they are AMAZING lovers.
@...nobody knows: The Americans wait until Japan attacks.
