I know it’s 100% stereo types but I found it deep in my meme collection and wanted to share!

    It’s an old joke, but I kind of like it. Even if it’s stereotyping, it also sort of says that we all have our strengths and weaknesses. Although, I think british food gets too much flack and I find french police to be scarier than german.

    Ruining pluralism is the new status quo for american cultural imperialism. “Imagine a world with only one culture, itd be so cool” Ig this is why U.S has two parties and they are doing their best to become one-party system. True brain activity optimization.

    I’m surprised by Italians being the lovers here, I thought I was atypical for apparently being into people who are short, loud, and very opinionated

      The Peelian ideal is genuinely quite good compared to many philosophies of policing in my view, the whole idea that the legitimacy of policing can only come from it being executed from the bottom-up by citizens in uniform rather than top-down from the state’s mandated skull-crackers is pretty progressive for 19th century London. The fact the police aren’t generally armed on this basis is rare internationally and genuinely a good thing in my view.

      The problem is like any theory, it doesn’t often survive contact with reality for very long. The gap between the model and reality, and the value of the model itself have obviously been discussed at length elsewhere on here. Also the first ‘Peelers’ were not exactly popular too.

      No guns, strong social incentive to be polite so even the bobbies aren’t as assholey as other cops.

      At least that’s my theory

    I’m pretty sure hell has American police, healthcare, justice system, education and public transport. Not sure about the rest.

      You have fish and chips, they have fondue. You both have one dish you excel at. Though now I’m thinking fondue dip for fish and chips would be delightful…

      They get a lot of points for still knowing how to make a good fondue or raclette. All the Brits have are scones and Indian food
