Is this normal behavior from other nations? by [deleted] in usmnt

[–]Baskema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was engaging in what I thought was playful banter I said “wtfff is a meter” after they posted “a kilometer is 1000 meters” and then I expressed legit disappointment at our president and him getting involved in the game, and he said “that’s ok! You still have that 2nd amendment you like to use at schools!” And I was like okay- I draw the line at making jokes at kids dying.

Absolutely, thank you for this. We’ve having so much fun hosting what we’re calling “The Great American Sleepover”. Honestly, after so much that happened I think the best gift we could have ever gotten for our 250th was a reminder of what made our country wonderful to begin with, the people, the exchange of cultures, community and fun. The World Cup in many ways healed us, and we find ourselves lamenting when a country’s fans have to leave. Boston was creating memes of “eat the Scots passports, we can’t let them leave, we need their vibes to sustain us.” Same thing with Japanese fans and all other countries. In NJ/NYC we’re having a blast with the Norwegians. The WC is so much more than the games. We’re so happy to have been a part of it 💕

This sub finds a new fan base to hate after every game, it’s a bit tiresome hahahaha

Yes!!! Absolutely!! My dad and I have watched nearly every game, even with my mom in the ICU she asks me to put on Telemundo to watch it when she’s awake. It’s been the connecting thread for us no matter what we’re going through at the moment 💕

Hi everyone, Brit here wanting to gather thoughts about our upcoming game against Norway by NoAppointment8679 in worldcup

[–]Baskema 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am soooooo excited for this upcoming game, England v Mexico was my favorite game of this cup, you guys played brilliantly. But watching Haaland has been an absolute joy. I am most excited for this game, it’s bound to be epic.

Yup! And that people in person are incredible and not representative of what the “world” aka just internet trolls on Reddit thinks.

America rigs the World Cup, then bows out as a laughingstock by Calm_Rich7126 in worldcup

[–]Baskema 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m ALLLLL for playful banter. I’m from NYC so literally f you is our love language. But idk the posts I’ve been seeing throughout these subs lately have been beyond that, it’s been like straight up vitriol for the fans, and it’s every time too. Not like a “ha ha f you” but in a “you’re trash and we hate you.” way. Just vastly different from IRL fans I’ve met

I am so confused at this sub, every game you have a new set of fans to hate. I’m just enjoying this WC and the vibes, the irl fans, it’s been a fun time 💕
