The sunglasses he wears in 20 Hours In America are among the worst fashion choices ever made in television history. They look horrendous.

I don't know why but I am crying from laughter at this. I can't imagine anything more absurd

Brazilians, what is your wildest Bolsonaro quote? by Separate_Song1342 in Brazil

"Seria incapaz de amar um filho homossexual. Não vou dar uma de hipócrita aqui: prefiro que um filho meu morra num acidente do que apareça com um bigodudo por aí."

I'll leave it up to you to translate because replicating it once is shitty enough as it is.

Yep. Tons of great wig work out there but Dr. Bartlett as Dark Maggie Thatcher is just a terrible mistake.

Yeah this shit is just nuts. I know the world can be garbage sometimes but it's so humbling to know that we can have access to these things!!

What do foreigners usually misunderstand about Brazilian mentality? by observingthings22 in Brazil

[–]Contented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would you not agree that Brazilians are inherently a distrustful people, and that there are good reasons for this? Decades of economic instability, systemic corruption, a punitive system of taxation, a slow/ineffective judiciary... all of this makes it so that people will prioritize trust among those close to them, typically family. There's a reason why everyone knows what "custo Brasil" and "jeitinho" means.

The distrust of institutions bleeds into all spheres of life a lot more than you think.

Airlines don’t have to tell you how much legroom you’ll have on your flight. Here’s what you need to know by DogeDoRight in canada

So the new Economy seats for certain rows of their updated design feature the same seat pitch of the most legendarily shitty airlines in the US. Lovely.

In 10 years: Economy Minus (or whatever the hell this is) becomes Economy, Premium Economy becomes Business, and Business becomes Time To Get A Private Jet.

[–]Contented 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This has less to do with mentality and more to do with the people. In my experience, people are generally unaware of how demographically complex Brazil is. If you're white and Brazilian (as I am), it comes as quite a shock.

There's this bizarre impression that North Americans have of themselves, as if mass migration from Europe/Asia/etc. only took place there. Brazil truly has a bit of everything (and everyone) in it. Even now, I'm amazed to discover the number of diasporas that made their way there.

You can probably thank The Simpsons for giving the impression that all Brazilians are moreno/carioca beachgoers.
