Never did the tweet with “replace economy with rich peoples yacht money” ring more true than this assholes opinion:

Well yeah, you will have GOG achievements instead, duh.

I really like Karambolage, it is a lets call it documentary which shows german-french peculiarities, like food, history or just how certain expressions developed. It is always with a little wink about our local uniqueness and tries to explain one side to the other. If you speak german or french, I highly recommend it.

One example from memory which always get used as example by our family if we try to explain it:

There was once a german-french kindergarten and in the winter the children were told to form groups and build snowmen. The groups made up of only german children played nicely and the groups of only french children played nicely, but the mixed groups somehow all got into an argument. The teachers then found out why: in Germany, the snowmen is made up of 3 snow balls, 1 for the legs, 1 for the torso and 1 for the head. But in France, a snowman only has 2 snowballs: 1 Torso and 1 Head. And the children tried to explain to the other ones, that of course they were right and the other side wrong.

I always hoped that something like Karambolage comes from every country and then they get shown to the others. This way we all learn about each other. And most imporant thing to learn: we are all human and not so different in the end.

Perfectly fine opinion to have.

That’s not what the tankies say though ;)
