    Oh my God, this is too easy.
    The ego. The gold toilet energy. The constant need for applause from a crowd that’s already left the building. The lies. The spray tan. The cult vibes. The hats.

    But honestly?
    I wish we weren’t famous for pretending individualism is a virtue when it’s mostly just loneliness in a costume.
    Our addiction to isolation dressed up as freedom? That one’s gotta go.

    Super cheap olive oil—and meals incredibly late. In Spain, lunch is usually between 1–3 p.m. and dinner around 9–10 p.m. That’s why we have snacks between meals.

    Here in Canada, that everyone is nice. It is true when it come to older generations, but with people under 20, about 1 person on 100 isn’t the worst person you will ever meet. In my town at least.

    We are polite, but I promise we will tell you when you fucked up instead of us.

    We own our mistakes, but not other people’s.

    Canada is the reason why rules of war exist. Canada basically wrote the book on war crimes, since Canadian Troops fought so brutally fighting in both world wars. The reason why you won’t hear about it because we found ourselves on the winning side. In Canada we call them the Geneva suggestions or checklist.

    Czech Republic is one of the leaders in consumption of alcohol, especially beer. Many people are proud of this, but I find it really embarrassing, as if we had nothing better going for us.
