Apologies for the meme. Just felt like so god damn European today.
I wonder what it’s like to be European and having your dick so far down your own throat
Wish I was that flexible
Takes quite a long dong for that. Where are you from, if I may ask?
There does seem to be a lot to love… As an American I certainly envy your business hours and vacation policies.
Business hours as in rural California where restaurants close at 7 pm? But you are right, vacation is pretty great here…
As an Americam, I approve of this satire!
Wait a minute.
It… it is satire, right?
As an American, I am also now confused.
What if… what if this isn’t satire and someone REALLY thinks that being European is better than being American? No… surely it can’t be!
America is the greatest!
…RIGHT?!
Hello?..
(O_O)
Murica? Pass me a hot dog and the lack of healthcare.
hey! The Hot Dog was invented in Germany and brought to the US by a German immigrant. Don’t give them our sausages!
I am a german currently in the US for work. They can have all the hotdogs for themselves. We don’t want that stuff, this has nothing in common with proper sausages. Not even the shape.
America #1
(In military spending and gun deaths!)
And maternal mortality in the developed world!
And incarcerated population
I know this isn’t a popular opinion, but I love what all the EU bureaucracy does for us.
Ofc it can’t be 100.0% efficient, but why would anyone expect that, or fault it entirely for it. We should be glad we can spend like 1% of our time filling in various reports or talking with regulators or whatever - that indirectly gets us a society not run by corporations, an economy where demand is more of a driver than supply, etc.
It really shouldn’t be unpopular. EU bureaucracy might be slow, but it really does make a difference. Remember how you had to pay ridiculous roaming mobile charges if you crossed into another country? Or how you has to pay ridiculous money to transfer money between countries ridiculously slowly? Or how you had to charge that iphone with a ridiculous connector? Or how EU employment contacts stack up against US ones? Regulation works. The EU works.
And it does not only work against cooperations, but against things like surveillance laws as well. Those have been fought successfully on an European level.
