How we Europeans differ from Americans
2013/09/10 | WesternCulture

Posted on 10/09/2013 12:54:22 PM PDT by WesternCulture

We Europeans secretly admire the US.

Sometimes, we fail to understand America though and on such occasions it feels good to label Americans as "ignorant", "materialistic", "uncivilized" etc.

Never mind.

Let's continue to run the World together, but contribute to it in different manners.

Below, some few clips illustrating what we Europeans do better than any other part of Humanity.

“By my reading of history, Europeans get themselves into pickles that require extraction by Americans.”

- Very true indeed.

But the fact that Americans defeated the Nazis and the Soviets does not change the fact around that we Europeans are extremely good hosts.

“It is still funny.”

- Yes, but not as funny as this scene, depicting the more troublesome aspects of leading a Swedish life, owning a nice Volvo, a yacht and blablabla:

I could BARELY make it through the UK nightclub images-—what kept me going to the end was sheer perversity.
When I think o Swedish women I inevitably keep coming back to Ingmar Bergman’s women: Gunnel Lindblom,Harriet Andersson, Bibi A,, Ingrid Thulin, Liv Ullman,etc.

Tell me, WC, since it’s just dawned on me as I scrolled through all those BLONDE BLONDE women, why is it that there seem to be way more Blonde women in Sweden than Blonde men?

So playing dirty and being voted as such by your peers, is the ‘new’ wave of players from Sweden?

Oh hell no, they should have stayed with talent and not devolved into dirty hits and cowardly acts. Sorry, it’s true.

Just another one of WesternCulture's 'America Sucks! Europe is Better!' threads. Thread #9.
