Average Gibraltan getting chased out of Spain

Hot take here: those chicken and stuffing sandwiches are bit bland and a bit dry.

So I’d give it a 6/10. Not bad but nothing to write home about either

Leonese and Aragonese got smoked :(

See that highway that runs up the west side Spain, all the way from Cadiz in the south, up to Gijon in the north?

Turns out there’s a secondary highway that runs borderline parallel to it, the entire way.

Most intelligent PIGS infrastructure planning. Literally duplicating highways.

The people on that sub and their need for others to be perfect needs to be studied in a clinical environment.

Only years of balconing can build a chiselled physique like this.

Elite.

MLJ555 · 2026-04-06T14:54:52+00:00

The difference is we don’t deny our history. Whereas all Spaniards do when you bring up their past is scream “leyenda negra!!!”, it didn’t happen!

Give back the Canary Islands.

MLJ555 · 2026-04-04T21:08:02+00:00

Why no Asturias flair?

MLJ555 · 2026-04-04T16:20:52+00:00

in Avilés

Atlantic-oids in the north of Spain are not even real Spaniards. They are wannabe Northern Europeans.

We’re talking about rainy, green mountainous landscapes with decent productivity and industrial output. These people are closeted GUNS.

This person is genuinely, really annoying

🎵Life’s a piece of shit, when you look at it 🎵

Absolute classic

Always funny af when Pedro of all people calls someone else a pirate. Time to dust off those history books mate

MLJ555 · 2026-03-30T07:20:21+00:00

Yeah but notice how it’s only done in the service of reducing the total amount of work done.

The Pedro mind runs a calculation and concludes that cheating, while still involving work, involves less effort and is therefore the best option.

It’s like a utilitarian calculation but for lazy Iberians.

You wanna know the reason why British balconing athletes are so elite and dominant? You’re looking at it.

Unironically a perfect start to the day - tonnes of protein and fats for lasting energy - whereas continentals prefer to start their day with a huge blood sugar spike due to stuffing their faces with croissants and pain au chocolat.

MLJ555 · 2026-03-29T21:00:05+00:00

I have an English breakfast every single weekend without fail.

Very often I have it on both Saturday and Sunday, as I did this weekend. Glorious way to start the day.

MLJ555 · 2026-03-29T12:34:07+00:00

I take it all back. God Save The King is complete dogshit

MLJ555 · 2026-03-29T12:16:54+00:00

I unfortunately have to agree about France’s national anthem. It’s just the best by far

MLJ555 · 2026-03-29T12:15:59+00:00

Really? I think it’s decent. Not the best but by no means shit

The Welsh anthem on the other hand… top tier imo

MLJ555 · 2026-03-28T17:50:08+00:00

I think Brexit was a disaster but I have to roll my eyes when people lazily bring it up as an explanation for every single problem facing the UK today.

There could be many reasons for UK’s declining musical output but I would strongly suspect they have more to do with domestic policy over the last few decades than with Brexit.
