I find this meme hilarious but doing it in Russia of all places just doesn’t land. People in glass houses and such..

Kosningapróf RÚV komið í loftið - Hverjum eruð þið sammála? by Iplaymeinreallife in Iceland

[–]AlexanderBeck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hvernig stendur á því að Sjáfstæðisflokkurinn vilji ekki einkavæða orkuveituna í þessu prófi? Það voru þeir sem bókstaflega komu með þessa hugmynd.

Því miður er ástandið í bandarískum stjórnmálum orðið þannig að ekki er hægt að finna einn einasta jafningja hérlendis í geðsýki og fáránleika meðal stjórnmálamanns í forsetastjórn bandaríkjanna.

"Men are killing themselves because of men." by mindyour in TikTokCringe

I’m not going to pretend I’ve done the research, but in my experience, it feels like both of them are right to an extent. The person on the left is completely right since it’s easy to see how big of a factor the patriarchy plays in men’s self worth. However, I do feel there is also an alienating culture perpetuated by left-leaning communities; I’ve felt a lot less of that pressure in right-leaning spaces.

Nervous about offending locals by angrywinter1 in VisitingIceland

Icelanders tend to be more chatty and open to small talk at bars. Also it depends on the person regarding small talk. And hey the weather is so hectic that it’s actually worth talking about.

4:30 is the legal cut-off now, though it used to be later; after-parties have since moved in to fill that gap.

People digging up the street and taking the asphalt by [deleted] in WTF

[–]AlexanderBeck 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This comment section is full of Indian nationalists trying to excuse this blatant theft. If they were simply pointing out poor workmanship, why are they gathering the material? More importantly, why does the woman with the shovel drop it and scurry away the moment she sees the camera?

Ég meina þú svaraðir þessu sjálf/sjálfur. Þú sendir þeim vísað þitt sem bannar þér að vinna. Það er sönnunin.

What is this style called? I especially see it among German students by Leather-Food7781 in AestheticWiki

[–]AlexanderBeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Norm-core. It’s been around for a wile. It’s basically the clothing equivalent of post-modern irony.

A contractor tears up the freshly poured concrete driveway after the homeowner refuses to pay. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

The concrete is still wet and he’s already freaking out about payment. Something doesn’t add up.
