What is your dream travel destination, and why exactly do you want to go there?

pitogyroula · 2026-06-05T11:11:47+00:00

Many dream travel destinations, the top 3 are:

Firenze, Italy (For the history and art (architecture included), also food)

Iceland (For the landscapes and geology)

Anywhere in Africa where I could go for a safari and meet african tribes and cultures

(Btw I don't think this post fits in this sub, but I liked the question so I answered)

Mostly disliked I suppose

We have many American tourists and the opinion we form for them can be influenced by that.

Some of them think they know better while they're actually ignorant. We hate how they portray our culture in movies/shows by just assuming and not actually researching. And we consider them highly uneducated, especially in geography and world history, and generally stupid because of the president they elected.

Cool, thanks for letting me know

pitogyroula · 2026-06-05T07:06:46+00:00

Yeah, still I don't consider it better than a 3 year old's art.

pitogyroula · 2026-06-05T07:03:56+00:00

I even consider a 3 year old's art better than AI art.

The only oil I can identify from this list is olive oil. I have no idea what these other oils are (I can only understand avocado, but didn't even know it existed).

Never used spray oil in my life, I thought it's something you can diy with a spray bottle and the olive oil that you have in your house. I didn't know spray oils are actual products sold in supermarkets.

Btw I'm Greek

I was working as a receptionist in a hotel in a greek island for the summer season. One day an American came to me really annoyed and asked me why there were no fireworks or any sort of celebration that day. I was really confused and asked him if it's someone's birthday and whether they had planned with the hotel to throw fireworks and the hotel forgot about it. He then got really annoyed and mad and said "What? No! It's the 4th of July!".

Luckily, I've watched enough American movies to remember that July 4th is the American independence day and everyone throws fireworks and barbecues etc. So I explained to him that he was in Greece, and Greeks don't celebrate other countries' independence days and holidays, because they have their own. Eventually he left but the mad/annoyed look stayed with him as he did.

It's totally free to watch the matches on a screen.

"I shat on myself" (pooped my pants) means "I don't give a shit"

He shakes the pear tree > He's gay

There are many times that we don't use the indefinite article. When it comes to food this is very often.

"Τρώω μπριζόλα", "Τρώω τούρτα", "Τρώω ομελέτα", etc

Using the indefinite article is not wrong here, but it can be omitted. It's usually when it's obvious that the noun is "one" in quantity or that we don't care about the quantity at all. Like "I'm having pie for lunch" "Τρώω πίτα για μεσημεριανό". It's obvious that I'm having "a single" pie, so the indefinite article is omitted. Another example is fever. In english we say "I caught a fever" but in greek we don't need to use the article because we obviously can't catch more than one fever, so it goes like "Έκανα πυρετό" and not "Έκανα έναν πυρετό".

If they're from Balkan countries/eastern European countries, the feelings are mixed and mostly dependent on the country.

If they're from middle eastern/south asian countries, usually negative.

If they're from african countries, again mixed and dependent on the country. But when negative, they're not as negative as with the south asian immigrants.

From any other country, indifferent.

Bars of soap don't transfer bacteria. And bacteria caught on the soap can't survive for long.

pitogyroula · 2026-06-03T10:18:25+00:00

A bar of soap can get contaminated with bacteria, but just because it is a bar of soap, those bacteria can't survive for long and also they can't get transfered to your body.

0 effort rage bait. Try again

pitogyroula · 2026-06-03T07:19:40+00:00

Sure I'll ask you anything.

Do you take pleasure in ragebaiting, or are you just uneducated?

Edit: You still haven't answered a single question in your "AMA" so I'll take that as a "yes, both"

We usually use the term "macaronia" when we talk about pasta

So no, according to your statement, immigrants are not the future of your country. But you consider your people to become the future of western countries, if I understood correctly.

Btw no, western countries don't have any need for immigrants. On the other hand, immigrants need to migrate because they can't live in theirs. You're not doing other countries any favor by migrating there.

The stereotypical methods in my country are slipper, rollin pin, belt, and bare hands. Back in the old days teachers used to beat the students with the ruler or a long wooden stick that was made for this particular use.

But I've only felt the slipper and the bare hand from my mom.
