Best and worst of European cultures?

Best- foward thinking, a strong appreciation for the arts, a more global outlook
Worst- their love for David Hasselhoff and Tom Jones.

only the germans love him peedub…oh and wildflower herself…

best Irish

I think the best part of European culture, is the Swedish one.

We have IKEA. Meat balls. Smorgasbord. Sour herring. Husmanskost (houseman’s dish), Pippi Longstockings, Ingo, Salming, Max von Sydow, the list could go on forever. It’s also very cheap here and anyone could afford to pay a visit.

We’ve always been very diplomatic and for that, we’re often criticised for being hypocrites.

but but…...Hasselhoff brought down the Berlin wall with his powerful music…..

i’ve been thinking about going to sweden for some time now, during the summer, a midweek in stockholm would be great :)

and how did you know iwamoto???

Is the best and worst of European culture or the best European culture? I’m confused.

It’s of…..otherwise this could go on for some time…....

I thought so. My first answer then, and so true what you are saying, haha!

Obviously there are no Norwegians on here or else Makemo would be hearing about it.

i knew because of your love for jovi, he’s a hoff kind of guy

@ makemo
Sweden’s cool, was there twice in the last two months, but it’s hardly cheap.

iwamoto!!
I’m deeply offended!!!

lol
I like the notion of one being so into Bon Jovi that they drop the “Bon.”

LOL…. I usually just go with Jon and the guys :p

And I’m still contemplating representing other Nordic countries here…...

I almost went to study in Finland for a while and my Swedish friend lambasted me.
What’s up with the Scandinavian rivalry business?

We just love to hate each other….we get along like a house on fire though.
The Norwegians are a bit uptight, the Swedes a bit drunk, the Fins a bit mad and the Danes a bit moany (they’ll probably remove this, but I’m sure I’m not actually offending any of the nationalities)

best = its art and history
worst = cigarette smoke everywhere

ahh…I miss Sweden. I think you have a point. The line for the Systembolaget was constantly out the door.

LOL yeah, didn’t have to be in Copenhagen long to learn the phrase “do Denmark a favor, follow a Swede to the ferry”. Of course now its only to the trainstation

That’s funny.
Another thing I like about Europe is food in toothpaste tubes. I remember in Sweden I got some that was a kind of shrimp paste. All I’ve seen here in the states is crappy easy cheese.

Kalle’s kaviar on knackebrod (need more keyboard layouts)!!

“We’ve always been very diplomatic and for that, we’re often criticised for being hypocrites.”

Letting all those German troops though Sweden to Norway back in the 40s probably didn’t help. Or so my granddad used to say.

hahaha, my great grandfather was one of those germans ;)

Then our grandparents probably wouldn’t have gotten along very well! :D

But there’s hope, my understanding, swedish grand dad could perhaps have joined the two of yours in a diplomatic fashion.
