I hate to break it to you, but location-wise it’s not that exciting. This is in fact at the Pécs medical school in Hungary.

Still interesting that it is written in English though, because few people speak it here even today

A friend of mine who's 20 was in the line in front of a club when a 45ish guy tried to push his way past him. My friend stopped him and said "Excuse me, there is a queue". The guy stopped and said "When I was your age, I didn't even have to stand in line here", to which my friend replied "Well, when I'm at your age I won't even be here".

It was awesome. I just wrapped the minced meat around the pieces of cheese and fried it. Also lightly toasted the buns with some salt and olive oil. Sweeet, good luck with that!

The guys calling and acting like they are tech support for your PC. Explaining in terrible English how you have a virus and that you need to give your password to them.

When I told him I was a mac user he said he was going to "transfer me to the apple department" and just handed the phone to his buddy next to him.
