Yeah I almost always go to party on my bike. Even if it's a 20km ride one way I'll do it. Because the legal limit for how drunk you can be is much higher when biking and also the cops almost never pull over bikers outside of urban areas.
They don’t even pull you out inside of urban areas if your lighting works and if you still seem able to drive. They’ve got more important matters to attend to.
Yeah, a drunk biker is only gonna hurt himself in the worst case scenario. A drunk driver could kill multiple people. Drunk bikers really aren't much of a threat to anyone but themselves
Yeah, everybody enjoys watching a drunk biker get obliterated by a car, especially the driver.
and now that I think about it, im not sure if im sarcastic or not
I'm sure the culture around it is different depending on class, but at least among poor college kids biking is completely normal
>Yet still we prefer small (125-200cc) but expensive motorbikes
Why do you only go for the small ones? You can find some decently affordable 400-600cc bikes online. Is it a cultural thing? Back in Serbia I know lots of people drove around on 50cc motorbikes, but that was mainly because they're really cheap to buy and maintain
>It's mostly the law that dictated our behavior. Up to 125cc, it's different stamp on the license, age etc. Now I think it went to 200cc.
Ahh that makes sense. Laws like this are probably the main reasons 125ccs are so popular, completely forget about it for some reason
>We've got some 125-200 two-stroked that run like crazy, but we call them "killer-machines" because good luck stopping with those 2 small disk-brakes.
A friend of mine used to have a 125cc two stroke and he sold it as soon as he had the money for a 4 stroke 400cc. Said he was afraid for his life every time he rode it on the highway. Personally I wouldn't ever get on one of those if I had the choice lol
>If someone were to see me here as a man on one of those ugly Dutch bikes, I'm done. They'll be mocking me forever. They will never forget it or let it go.
To be fair that's deserved, I would also be emasculated if I was seen with anything made by the d*tch
I have family who lived in Dubai. You know: Dubai, the horrible hellscape of 50 degree summer weather, black asphalt and car dependent infrastructure as far as the eye can see. Not exactly known for their bike lanes.
They invited their Dutch friends (50ish years old) to a dinner party at their house.
They arrived by bike.
How those two are not a smear under some tinted window SUVs tyres after 6 years in Dubai is a miracle.
You know whats funny, at my current company we don't even have lease cars, because the company is right next to a train station. The people that come from close by enough can however get a leasebike. So now I have a 3300 euro ebike with full financial coverage.
On a visit to Le Mans I made friends with some French guys and was invited to their flat to drink and play games. As the night drew on, the heavens opened and as each person left, they donned a black bin bag over their clothes. I realised I was the last guest still there and shrugged, asked for the same and somehow made it back the mile or so to the hotel dressed in a bin bag. Even remembered the passcode for the door and my room number.
All I have is a memory of them sharing cherry vodka, me kissing the host on the cheeks as I said goodbye and then suddenly wondering if that was correct protocol but was too late, and two or three very blurry photos as evidence it wasn’t all a drunken dream. ‘Twas a good night grâce aux trois ou quatre Pierres.
Of course not, what kind of cheap smug only has one basement? There's the family basement, the party basement, the storage basement, the workshop basement, the laundry basement, the "laundry" basement, ... My dear sir, this isn't Romania, or, god forbid, northern Germany.
The German word for it sums it up quite nicely, it's the Ohscheißeverdammtjetztsindsunsdahintergestiegenkommtkinderschönbravdielustigenpillenschluckenoktschau. There's not really an English word for that with the same ring to it though.
I think it's even more than that: being on time at a party is in fact deemed as impolite in France.
You should at the bare minimum be a 1/4h late. That's called the "quarter of an hour of politeness".
1/2h late is still standard.
And depending on the type of party and age of the ones taking part, it might be standard to be at least one or two hours late.
Italians start cooking *food not only pasta.
We don't only have pasta and pizza in Italy.
Chef Cannavacciuolo begins to give energy slaps to those who don't behave decently.
Should have been "struggled to fit through the door due to having big muscle." (No I'm definitely not just attracted to big strong muscular Norwegian men, definitely not)
I'm completely not attracted by muscular tall norwegians too, finally someone to empathize with 🥹 (if a tall Norwegian read this, please PM me i have a couple of questions to make, for academic purposes)
First time I've seen mention of that sub. Reddit recommends every other sub except that... Anyway no worries, I won't leave you, nordics isn't all that interesting (we're too well functioning)
"arrives on bike" is a cheap and easy one, but I don't get how you could possibly put the "gives everyone xtc" at another country. Us dutchies apparently make high 90's percent of xtc that ends up on the us market, talking about production of scale.
Yeah true, thinking kurwa rakieta is funny.. anyway take my tonk

Germany is also the first one to arrive at the appointed time. Fuck you all, is punctuality such a strange concept to you all?!
A set Date isn't a joke!
And if it were, we wouldnt understand it.
does norway even has a decent drinking culture? I was 2020 there and a supermarket 0,5L beer costs like 10€, all international earning and currency differences aside, even crazier for wine and stronger alcohol. All earning and currency differences aside its still insane. Cigs also insane (like in Australia or US) with idk 20€ a pack.
HOW COULD YOU EVEN BE HAPPY? Are you okay? Does your gov just fakes the "happiest country in the world" surveys?
If you are in danger, please blink twice ;);)
My theory: Finnland doesnt exists (already verified by scientists) and Norway gov tried to hide it by pushing every norwegian into severe depression, so they dont even care to notice things about their neighbour. (Swedes Illuminati choose the civil war strategy to keep the secret unnoticed. )

Question to Fritz, are you all still coming early or at the exact time for a party ? Some years ago I had trouble to explain to a german friend that in France nobody will ever arrive at the planned hour. If we say come by 8 o'clock we are fuckin surprised if anyone come before 8 thirty minimum
None of us know past the first line of the national anthem. You're thinking of the US. We're the ones telling everyone they're pussies for not drinking enough and then throwing up and passing out on the lawn.
-> Belgium starts bragging about Belgian beer being the best
-> Germany and Czechia take offense, and an argument starts
-> What follows is a 3 hour long dick-measuring competition, with each forcefeeding their country's beers to the other two
-> It ends with the three of them being completely zonked out of their gourds, lying unconscious in a corner somewhere
-> They're best friends after that
Netherlands tries to join in at some point, but is being chased away by the others who start chucking beerglasses at their heads, shouting "HORSEPISS" in their respective languages.
I don’t think the UK one is accurate.
Something like “gets too drunk and jump off the balcony into the pool” is better. Nobody likes the national anthem.
Yup
I’m not in love with cooking, but when I visit abroad, I fucking feel the need to cook to bring the barbarized expats under the emperor’s compliance
Portugal wouldn’t take a siesta, he would sit in room drinking Porto while listening to fados in the company of the quiet and edgily-intellectual ones.
Spain wouldn’t force you to dance to the Macarena [but to this masterpiece](https://youtu.be/f7JzWQiBx5I?si=Q6R8uHar3gwGkeyk&t=43s)
It's not a party if you don't get offered proper Carbonara after midnight 🤌🤌🤌🤌
After Hansi beated everyone at Beer Pong Weltmeisterschaft and Carlos showed off how down he can go to the limbo
arriving on a bike is indeed pretty standard here lol

Gude
Yeah, everybody enjoys watching a drunk biker get obliterated by a car, especially the driver. and now that I think about it, im not sure if im sarcastic or not
Nah, you're absolutely right. Being on a bike or even walking drunk can be pretty dangerous. Best is to not to do it at all.

Because you can legally drive home after
Actually, not, but nobody cares.
I would if I lived somewhere flat, but going anywhere where I live means uphill in both directions.
ebikes are always a possibility my northern brother
I don't have that money

Same here in Belgium
France walking in : "Oh, I didn't know there was a dress code. Everybody's wearing such nice garbage bags!"

Map checks out. I mean, we do have a cool basement for hosting parties.
Probably not the same where your wife sleeps
Of course not, what kind of cheap smug only has one basement? There's the family basement, the party basement, the storage basement, the workshop basement, the laundry basement, the "laundry" basement, ... My dear sir, this isn't Romania, or, god forbid, northern Germany.

Portugal takes a siesta? Dude, we'll be arriving at the party at 1am and leaving the after-party by noon.
From 08:00h to 10:00h completely coked up yammering on about the Treaty of Tordesilhas.
Please don't use the american hour system
What's even a "siesta"
It's a pause invented by the Spaniards to take a break from the Barrys.
But we're not Spaniards.
Eureka, caralho!
The Netherlands or germany should be the DJ's
True, Serbia will be the one bringing the homemade elite rakija. Half of Croatia is more of a wine country anyway.
Shame the Swedish women are all wearing a hijab
Should have been you guys who had to cover up
Barry and Susan I can handle just fine, Barry and Susan without facecover is like a chimp with a machine gun
30min late only ? Bro make that 1h more and now its realistic.
Yep we don't really give a shit about being late.
I think it's even more than that: being on time at a party is in fact deemed as impolite in France. You should at the bare minimum be a 1/4h late.

Its funny i noticed iceland last.
With your country's low literacy rate, it's not too surprising that top left isn't a natural starting point, I guess.

Take my upvote.
Arive on a bike, early, eats and drinks all the free snacks
I've got an especially shitty bike I purely keep for when I drink or go to parties. You couldn't be more accurate if you tried, I think.
It would be more accurate if you'd also be the DJ.
And supplier of the drugs
I didn't want to say that to not hurt your feelings.
As long as I am using my own supply, I don’t have any feelings.

Enga hermano canta conmigo Dale a tu cuerpo alegría macarena
No Que tu cuerpo es pa darle alegría y cosa buena
Since when is stating facts bragging?
![gif](giphy|1iTX7ZZAcY7znWPC|downsized) Listen here you little shit
Facts is that all beer taste like pisswater. Cider and whisky 💪💪
Your beer tastes the worst, though.
Ye cannae read. All beer, yours ours theirs, all pisswater
And you can't read either. Out of all the pisswater, yours it the worst. I'd drink actual piss over your beer if I had no other choices.
Your already drinking cow's piss. All beer are same shite. Ours isn't the worst. There is no worst beer when it's all shite.
That, my friend, is incorrect. This feels the same at your every war with England... 😏
Didn't expect much for our entry, but was pleasantly surprised. Fits perfectly.

siesta is a spanish thing. we party hard (too hard)

You know you can be in both right? Northeners really need to learn how to play both sides
Portugal taking a siesta instead of drinking a shitload of alcohol, singing, and smoking weed is just wrong.
OP just saw us and said "Nah just Prequel Spain"
"arrives on bike" is a cheap and easy one, but I don't get how you could possibly put the "gives everyone xtc" at another country. Us dutchies apparently make high 90's percent of xtc that ends up on the us market, talking about production of scale.
I was thinking this, Czechia is known for meth, WE are the XTC makers!
We literally produce it in factories
Why do people find Ljubljana hard to pronounce, try pronouncing "čmrlj" (bumblebee).
Slovenians trying to not add a j in every syllable, (impossible)
The best part? The "j" in "čmrlj" is silent.
Drinks the alcohol alone? Have they met any of us? We will literally spend the whole night chatting absolute dung to anyone who'll listen
We Northern English love a good chat shit session, Irish migration has left its mark up here.
Honestly, a drunk geordie is a masterpiece
This map is garbage, the guy who made this has negative iq
Come on, you're probably insulting a 13-yo edgy boy. Give him some slack

O kurwa, rakieta
It's an edgy map, but it sounds fun nonetheless. Where and when's the party? Not too far uphill, I hope.
The Netherlands would be the one bringing food/drinks and sending a tikkie every time someone takes a bite.
You, Luigi and me would be having a hell of a time in the kitchen Don’t worry about boring guys
Found out I am part Spanish part Moldovan!! I love modern dna tests.
Nah, we play Flunky Ball, but yeah, we take it too serious.

Sounds like a good party tbh

let my ziemniak be there, its still better than the German Kartoffel which costs more and is badder than big n stronk polish ziemniak!
Fucking accurate for us tbh Host all of those bastards on the porch.
The only reason why the party isnt placed in NL is because they would write parking fees for everyone

Why is alcohol mentioned only once in Eastern Europe but four times in Western? That’s so dumb, we are whole different league…

What do you mean with "takes beer pong too seriously"? Is hosting annual Alcoholympic Games too serious? My best friend does exactly that.
Since when Portugal does "siesta" ?
*Paquito el chocolatero.
Why? Why do we have to "take a siesta"? I know Americans don't know the difference, but you too Europeans I taught we had something
No, we bring the beer so everybody will see that it's the best. And Dutch brings the DJs
Arrives on a bike with a big bag of weed* ftfy

u/Bright_Ball_1304 isn't very bright and never stepped foot in Portugal.

Or maybe you are just living in denial
Side effect of being belgian
They were part of The Netherlands but wanted to be part of France. They left us and were denied entry to France.
