I find it absolutely hilarious that people get so riled up about a casual joke about rude New Yorkers.
Also I'm German and you're in desperate need of contact with grass.
Ah well, that explains why your sense of humor is so shit. Guess we're all living up to our stereotype.
I think it has more to do with me being neurodivergent but being German and being autistic is pretty much the same.
Self diagnosis is usually valid, but unless you're about to use the phrase "Hideous Dickhead Disorder" I'd recommend you seek a second opinion.
I liked that one. You got me good with the twist. Also I find your assessment reasonable.
From one neurodivergent person to another: stop generalizing about groups of people. It's offensive.
great job shitting on an entire country to own one guy, dipshit
Found the German
A German wouldn't get so riled up about it, he would just sternly correct you.
This guy is probably Austrian
not german, but i don't like seeing people shitting on my neighbors
I mean, I'm dual citizen myself. Just giving back what they gave ¯\(ツ)/¯ but I'm realizing I'm just feeding trolls now
Why did they feel the need to mention theirs nationality? It's not even remotely relevant. So they threw that fact out there.
I think it's rather relevant when I'm accused of watching Fox news.
People shit on us all the time. We don't mind as we get along with most of the world when it comes down to business and we like to criticize ourselves actually more than most foreigners like to.
What happened last time the Germans started making vast generalizations about a group of people?
Man, you Nazis sure like making up generalizations about groups of people. You should go to New York and round up all the rude people into camps.
Funny concept but it works better if you don't explicitly say "Nazi"
