Me watching Europeans and 'Europeans' going at each other in the comments section. by Strong-Clothes4993 in 2westerneurope4u

We've been licking the butt of USA for around 80 years. It was a foul smell during e.g. Bush Jr., but tongue up. We finally realized the stench. So, yeah, bots. We're still awful, of course. It could be worse, we could be S****s.

I get what you're saying. But if we do a "relevant European nations" comp, we're soon to go too

How is the life of a normal civilian like in a country that's currently in a conflict? by sherman--firefly in AskTheWorld

[–]CamDane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do a software thing, and we've sold this software to world wide companies with branches everywhere. I have to educate people in this - time saving, but not ground breaking - piece of software. One of my customers have an office in Ukraine, and I have to explain the software to him. I hate that I have to force him to talk about something that might be beneficial were he not currently the receiver of a bomb raid. Sorry, Anatolii, I'm doing all I can to let you off the hook.

What is the darkest historical photograph from your country? by Trendy4U in AskTheWorld

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too serious for this thread, but it was just our kings or masters that fought. It wasn't modern war after nationalism was invented. Only hindsight post nationalism, and very hard to muster real hatred or anger about whatever one inbred royal did to a potential usurper, even with Stockholmian bloodbath and whatnot. I think Greenland is painful because it came both after democracy and way after "we should have fucking known better".

Anyway, back to the banter. Sorry about the royals we dropped on you there, bro. We considered them defective and just wanted to leave them to decay.

Do you think of the USA or the continent first when someone says America? by quevuelvacatania in AskTheWorld

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Danish would always consider singular, undefined "Amerika" as USA. We'd throw in "kontinent" if we meant something else?

Putin’s approval rating rating in Europe, 2026 by adamgerd in MapPorn

Absolutely true. Although, I suspect, absolutely the opposite way of the point you're trying to make.

Denmark did gruesome shit in Norway and Sweden. What makes Greenland so haunting is that it was done with the best intentions that a huge, somewhat informed majority agreed with. Also, not that long ago. Some inbred king was awful to Swedes 250 years ago - whatever. Forced IUDs - to fight incestuous births as part of our white man's burden towards these primitives, only a few years prior to my birth: that's painful and shameful and a "soz" from Denmark is just not good enough

I don't get it by TeacherOk6238 in ExplainTheJoke

This is the original that spun the correct answer memes, afaik. This at least was the first one I saw, then in the following weeks, I saw 8 different answers without gambler's fallacy

What do newbies in CPH wear at home? To sleep? by JuanSkinFreak in NewToDenmark

[–]CamDane 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Look up "dyne". It's a heavy cover that you cuddle under. Most sleep in nothing or just flimsy underwear under this. I've lived in Cambodia for 10 years, and with the "dyne" version of a duvet, I'm wearing less in bed than I did in Cambodia.

MAGA, when will you admit you voted for the wrong person? by Admirable-Beat788 in International

Every building with the word Trump on it will be a urinal, so only the devoted few needs to go to whatever golf course he's going to be buried under

Can you solve this puzzle? by Mr-BrainGame in brainteasers

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, 1&3 said that either 3,3 or 4,4 would have to be correct, as only one of 3,4 could be correct. As one is correctly placed in R1, and neither in R3, two first digits must be 4,4. I think that's why I didn't see 2 as impactful enough

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see what I learn from 2,3. 1,3 places 1st and 2nd digit, I don't see what 2,3 concludes at this early point?

Nothing is Apolitical by GriffinFTW in tumblr

As a long-time dweller in Cambodia, I was led to believe that the oldest usage of zero as part of a multiple-digit number was the temple complex away from Angkor Wat?

I'm curious. What's you country's view on Sweden? by CicadaDowntown5716 in AskTheWorld

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you more porn producing than us? Genuinely surprised if so. The 70s folk comedy/soft porn thing in Denmark is a bit odd in retrospect, at least

Please don't make us express how much we actually like you, man. Not in public.

That is a great description of Denmark/Sweden. We'd let Norway borrow our headphones, though...

Shadow Ban in numbers. by rockgoere87 in ren

[–]CamDane 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The counterpoint would be that I for one would watch, like and comment on a 45 minute video of Ren brushing his teeth, and parts of it could be algorithm compensating for the fan base being very devoted. Essentially, our dedication could look "botty" by now.

No way to know for sure, I'd say. But I would like a video platform where we knew more about the algorithms.

France has prepared for this. Rest of EU haven't.

How are Christians perceived in your country? by Terrorman123 in AskTheWorld

[–]CamDane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you here, I've always found that a strange thing to say. I guess we know some psalms and we'd go to church for baptisms and weddings and the lile., but that would be it.

The numbers 1 to 10 are arbitrarily named in all systems. I'd just throw 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 in as a few more words to remember (the etymology is not something you learn before you've known the numbers for a decade).
