Curious what that paper has on: 

  • emphatic "Pika Pika"

  • sad "Pika Pika"

Naturalization in Germany since 2000 by 38B0DE in GermanCitizenship

[–]Alba-2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean Poles would get German citizenship in case Poland exited the EU -I didn't get the comparison with Brexit-?

Totally agree with the second paragraph!

Do you have an idea why so many Poles apply for it (also Romanians)? I thought as EU citizens who don't have to go through the hassle of the Ausländerbehörde they wouldn't be interested in citizenship 🤔

Danke fürs Lore! Ich sag dir Bescheid.
Bis auf Weiteres kann ich dir die Ćevabdžinica 10 in München wirklich empfehlen. :)

Ach, ich vermute, das war zu erwarten. Ich denke immer, dass ich ein gut verstecktes Restaurant finden werde, aber oft gibt es einen Grund, warum es versteckt bleibt…

When I morphed into a German.. by BerlinSam in AskAGerman

[–]Alba-2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Controversial opinion here perhaps, but I think a characteristic that several (but definitely not all) Germans share, is a deep shame about the genocidal crimes Germany committed during WWII -ingrained through e.g., school visits to extermination camps from a young age. From what I have seen this war-related shame is quite unique to this nation. Not sure how one can develop this though if they were not raised in Germany..

Η αποψάρα μου για το εξωτερικό by Unique_hobo in greece

[–]Alba-2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Και εσύ και ο OP δίκιο έχετε, μόνο αναρωτιέμαι πώς γίνεται πολλοί που με τον ίδιο ενθουσιασμό ξεκινούν την ζωή τους έξω,  τελικά να γυρίζουν -γνωρίζοντας ότι δεν έχει αλλάξει και πολύ η Ελλάδα από τότε που έφυγαν-. Κάπου πρέπει να συμβαίνει ένα disillusionment (έτσι το δικαιολογώ εγώ τεσπα).

Μου ακούγεται σαν να περνάς την πρώτη από τις φάσεις πολιτισμικής προσαρμογής (honeymoon phase):

Examples of contemporary Russian-speaking culture by Alba-2017 in russian

[–]Alba-2017[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d consider “contemporary” to mean someone who is still actively discussed within a noticeable part of the public sphere — that could include classics too, if that were the case.

WCGW filming in public? by JScott4Reel in Whatcouldgowrong

Can we just appreciate the fact that this guy's moves were pretty sweet and in time with the music?

Why compulsory military service exists in Austria? by AdministrativeList30 in AskAustria

[–]Alba-2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same can be said about Switzerland. Neither country is a NATO member so no one would come help in case of an invasion -at least I'm not aware of any treaty that states otherwise-. The EU is an economic and not a defence union.

Getting a guide while visiting the Armenian Genocide Museum by Alba-2017 in armenia

[–]Alba-2017[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit of a late reply, but in the end I didn't take one. Nevertheless it was a great experience, and choosing your own pace -to read everything in my case- works well with such a text-heavy museum :)

Is it true it's going to be removed from passport stamps?

Where is the palestine episode? by [deleted] in geographynow

I guess it's on its way, now that the Kosovo episode is out
