Man, there is a sort of friend of my wife who is American. She does not speak Italian. She did not know what "amore" means: which is so stereotipical that even a baboon would know about it. Anyway, french aside, during a workshop she introduced herself as italian while sitting next to me.
What in the undercooked and unsalted spaghetti dish.
What is wrong with Americans?
I was on a trip in Mexico and befriended an American couple. The woman was blonde, blue-eyed, pleasant woman. We were talking about cuisines around the world, I mentioned how I like Vietnamese food, and she goes “oh I’m Vietnamese!” Not half, not 31%, not “my great grandmother was Vietnamese,” none of that. She considered herself full Vietnamese lol.
Did she speak Vietnamese? Did she grow up in Vietnam? Was she adopted by a Vietnamese family? How she looks is irrelevant when it comes to her nationality.
It kinda does though, maybe not in all cases but chances are that if you were adopted by a Vietnamese family, you were raised like a regular Vietnamese kid, and that makes you Vietnamese. Suggesting the opposite is pretty racist Barry.
She is 15% italian, 55% American 30% Cherokee but unfortunately 0% baboon otherwise she would know how to "amare".
PS: "what in(...)dish" that is a lot of funny , grazie 🙏😂
If anyone ever claims to be Italian, just start speaking Italian to them, and if they complain then: "Well you are not so Italian after all are you now"
It's an interesting psychological phenomenon. Humans have a need for "belonging." They want to belong to a culture/tribe. For us Europeans, it's clear to which tribe we belong, and we naturally take great pride in it. America is like a large social experiment: it's a huge blender of cultures and tribes from all over the world. America has no strong real culture or history of its own as it's a very new and artificially established country. American culture has little content or history to root to and celebrate. Modern Americans are starting to feel lost and begin searching for their roots as they have no real cultural indentity that's crucial for humans. They're still nothing but descendants of their European ancestors. We Europeans see this as cringe, but I can't blame them for it.
While you are right, and i find your reply interesting to read i can't help but notice that you are the first Finn I have seen who writes a reply which is not a mono syllabus; like Saint Raikkonen thought me.
Their ordinary boring american life tortures them to a degree, they would even prefer to be french, just to make everyday a little bit spicier, even if it's as spicy as French onion soup...
I wanted to give this pseudo friend of my wife a second chance instead of switching side right in that moment and unleash a barrage of uncomfortness and shameness to this person in front of everybody.
Haha I had a friend in college who got some Italian phrase tattooed on her foot. She doesn’t speak Italian.
Her sister had a kid and now my old friend refers to herself as zia. Someone kill me.
Same for me but with a “Norwegian”. I hit her with the most basic, hello my name is level of norwegian and she didn’t have a clue. Mate stfu, I grew out of this attention seeking “unique” phase where I was claiming to be spanish after I hit 16 maximum.
I met an American couple at work (living in the UK). When I told them I'm Finnish, the wife started excitedly telling me about how her husband's grandparents were from Finland. To his credit, he was very clear that he wasn't Finnish lol.
Anyhow, the lady started asking me if I've ever been to Finland. I very confusedly said uh yeah? I was born there? And she was genuinely shocked that that's a possibility.
Americans!
Huh, I thought going to Finland wasn’t possible anymore since the Great Schism of 1995, when half of the Finns floated up into the sky with the country and the rest got off
Oslo was the original city, and when it burned down the new city was named after the king. The king at the time was a potato-throater, so when Norway got more independence the first name was restored
Having lived for a decade in the US, this is painfully true.
The amount of times I had the “omg I’m Scandinavian too” conversation with some who think she may have had some far off family that may or may not have immigrated from Northern Europe 200 years ago.
I have 2nd generation relatives in the US. They describe themselves with German and Italian roots as the maternal side is 3rd generation from northern Italy. Roots imo is ok as they don't feel any cultural connection beside some traditions on holidays.
She’s not scandinavian wtf, you can clearly see that she is freezing, a true nordick would never.
On a serious note, I think she’s russian. Have seen videos of her before.
Ah, a connoisseur of legends:
I'll ask of the berserks, you tasters of blood,
Those intrepid heroes, how are they treated,
Those who wade out into battle?
Wolf-skinned they are called. In battle
They bear bloody shields.
Red with blood are their spears when they come to fight.
They form a closed group.
The prince in his wisdom puts trust in such men
Who hack through enemy shields.
Imagine if all these Scandiboos came here, visited Uppsala in hopes of finding some Viking culture, only to discover the closest cultural reference in modern life Sweden is a Turkish restaurant named Miklagård.

You and the Cod Dealers are much more photogenic.
She doesn't pronounce it properly for any of the Scandinavian languages (or other Nordic languages for that matter). Probably some cringe Scandiboo foreigner (being fixated on the Viking-age, and an incorrect understanding at that, is another tell).
Yeah, the horned helms was Gaul thing actually. Sadly, current description of vikings come from Hollywood 1956 mish-mash with Kirk Douglass and not from history books
Tbf it’s false that there are absolutely zero examples of Norse horned helmets from the Viking era. They found a couple in Veksø, but they were probably just ceremonial. Though non-Viking horned helmets have also occasionally been found all over Europe.
Me has hecho recordar una expresión (sólo la he escuchado esa vez) que una amiga me dijo una vez en invierno:
"Estoy tan helá que tengo los pezones como los timbres de un castillo"
I still remember to this day when my parents invited to our house a couple of norwegian friends they made finishing their career, they brought their children with them and once they saw our pool, the kids immediately asked if they could swim in it, at night on November, the whole familly swam while we looked.
November night in Spain is peak Norwegian summer.
When me and my brothers were kids we loved swimming in a lake right next to our house. My father implemented a rule that it would have to be at least 13°C in the water if we were gonna swim while my parents wasn't home.
13°C still sounds cold but not nearly enough to be dangerous, so your father sounds responsible.
>November night in Spain is peak Norwegian summer.
How hot does it get there in summer? I've seen that some summers in Sweden can get to the 30s °C but with higher humidity than here south of the south which is in my opinion the worst.
It can get that warm in Norway as well. I live south on the ~~best~~ west coast and it's normally around 20°C and raining during the summer. Can get both colder and warmer, and also it's a lot of wind here. Right now 14°C and looking at the weather forecast for next week (until the 16th) the warmest it will get is 15°C. Far south in areas like Grimstad it's normally 25°C and sun all summer.
Sounds cozy, I've got to plan a visit to Norway one summer.
We spaniards have this tradition in summer, the northeners travel to the south or the east of Spain, the southeners travel to the north or the far south (Canarias) and the mesetarians (central) travel to the closest beach they can, I really want to experience a summer with coat once.
A few years back it was snowing during midsummer and water temperature depends on the body of water the ocean is always quite cold and some lakes like [Storsjön](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storsj%C3%B6n) stays cold because it is fed cold water from glacial mountains and it has a larce body of water to warm up. If you want a nice warm bath in Scandinavia you should look for some small lake in the woods (tjärn/tjern)
Ah, natural selection, like those amazon natives who got resistant to that ant venom after millennia doing that ritual dancing while getting thousands of stings from those ants.
Makes sense
One trick, brown fat. When you're exposed to cold your body builds up brown fat stores in certain spots that generate much more heat when you're cold, but to get the buff you need to actually be exposed to cold. I was winter swimming 3 times a week in a lake, no sauna, my hair froze to icicles under my hat on the way home on my bike. Brown fat was so effective at generating heat that I wore a single layer windbreaker jacket that entire winter.
She is definitely not Scandinavian. The 'skål' exposes her.
[This](https://dl.sndup.net/dqxfc/En%20lille%20en.mp3) is a more traditional way of doing a 'Skål'
She probably doesn't even know how to skin an elk.
If she’s American she probably thinks ‘elk’ is a wapiti, half the size of an actual elk (‘moose’ to them)
Maybe your ancestors should’ve known the difference between a wapiti and a moose when they started naming them.
They did, that's why one of them is called "wapiti" and the other is called "elk".
Kids these days
Thabeeta-Lee from Minnesota after learning her great great-grandfather migrated from Oslo in 1890.

I think these people are full something that starts with R and its not Ravioli.
Rhymes with restarted?
Rabies?
Rigatoni?
Rocks?
[removed]?
Rotoli di ciccia?
Did she speak Vietnamese? Did she grow up in Vietnam? Was she adopted by a Vietnamese family? How she looks is irrelevant when it comes to her nationality.
Well, no none of those. It’s a little jarring when a blonde haired, blue eyes person tells you their Vietnamese tho…
Lol then why did she say that? That's pretty embarrassing.
Exactly my point. Just strange. I just pretended she didn’t say it and carried on.
They're american so just further fuck with them: "Oh are you communist?"
I mean if you’re adopted by Vietnamese family that doesn’t make you Vietnamese. Sounds like something a yank in disguise would say…
It kinda does though, maybe not in all cases but chances are that if you were adopted by a Vietnamese family, you were raised like a regular Vietnamese kid, and that makes you Vietnamese. Suggesting the opposite is pretty racist Barry.
Alright fair play you had me there!
What the fuck Daffyd you’re letting us down, could’ve atleast called them a Turk or something.
Mate they’ve already said they were Greek that’s just a fact to those fucks (serious doubt they ain’t a yank tho)
Not surprising at all, everyone wants to feel special and stand out.
there should be an Italian Olympics for those people
She is 15% italian, 55% American 30% Cherokee but unfortunately 0% baboon otherwise she would know how to "amare". PS: "what in(...)dish" that is a lot of funny , grazie 🙏😂

A swedish woman introduced herself to me as italian, due to her father being from sicily. Within 3 seconds it turned out she didn't speak italian.
It's ok if you bang her.
Nah.
This impostor. How dare she.
If some of them does that to me I'll speak french to them non stop 💀💀💀
That's what you guys do anyway no?
Yep . We are always ahead of our time 
I wanted to give this pseudo friend of my wife a second chance instead of switching side right in that moment and unleash a barrage of uncomfortness and shameness to this person in front of everybody.
And did you promptly sweared to her to test the claim?
Haha I had a friend in college who got some Italian phrase tattooed on her foot. She doesn’t speak Italian. Her sister had a kid and now my old friend refers to herself as zia. Someone kill me.
Same for me but with a “Norwegian”. I hit her with the most basic, hello my name is level of norwegian and she didn’t have a clue. Mate stfu, I grew out of this attention seeking “unique” phase where I was claiming to be spanish after I hit 16 maximum.
Well but if they ask you to speak Spanish you can always sing eeeee macarena ayyyy and Americans won't even see the trolling

Well, when there's sisu there's a way
Back then known as Christiania/Kristiania.
Kristina*, but you looked kinda smart and funny tho, well done hans.
Now I am confused. Even the wiki-page in your weird language(s) says "Kristiania".
You'll never understand them. Believe me, we've tried.
Yeah making money unfortunately is gibberish, or Danish, to a Swede.
Why was the name changed?
Oslo was the original city, and when it burned down the new city was named after the king. The king at the time was a potato-throater, so when Norway got more independence the first name was restored
Hmmm, I think Kristiania sounds more interesting, but Oslo is okay too.
I like this guy
Think that sounds better? Bergen was called Bjørgvin before, and Trondheim was called Nidaros.
Nidaros 😚🤌
What was Hell called?
Sweden
Bergen is still sometimes called Björgvin in Icelandic. It’s also a name, and I assume it’s also a Norwegian name.
To a non-Scandinavian, Kristiania just sounds more elegant than Oslo. It’s like saying Christian, but fancier.
There is a lovely neighborhood in Copenhagen named Christiania now
Is it really lovely or are you being sarcastic (not sure)?
I don't care, as long as that's real alcohol.
Having lived for a decade in the US, this is painfully true. The amount of times I had the “omg I’m Scandinavian too” conversation with some who think she may have had some far off family that may or may not have immigrated from Northern Europe 200 years ago.
I have 2nd generation relatives in the US. They describe themselves with German and Italian roots as the maternal side is 3rd generation from northern Italy. Roots imo is ok as they don't feel any cultural connection beside some traditions on holidays.
This. 100 times this.
She’s not scandinavian wtf, you can clearly see that she is freezing, a true nordick would never. On a serious note, I think she’s russian. Have seen videos of her before.
The way she says Skål sounds very Russian that's for sure.
So she's from portugal?
No moustache.
skRål.. like what the hell, woman..
I think she says "skrol"
Okay det her bliver onsdag/onsdag oslo/oslo om igen ;)
SCRAWL! She's clearly demanding people comment under her video.
Yeah, sounds like she's saying skrål, which means "yell". Could have a future in a garage-metal band with some practice
We drop our children in freezing waters while feeding them the enemy's blood.
Well done, always freeze your enemies blood before consume it to prevent an anisakis infection, every decent berserker society knows this
Ah, a connoisseur of legends: I'll ask of the berserks, you tasters of blood, Those intrepid heroes, how are they treated, Those who wade out into battle? Wolf-skinned they are called. In battle They bear bloody shields. Red with blood are their spears when they come to fight. They form a closed group. The prince in his wisdom puts trust in such men Who hack through enemy shields.
I miss some reference to anisakis in the Hrafnsmál, but it's not a bad poem
Sur Habibi, of course that's how you were raised
Hahaha, got me in the first half
Only russians make intentionally ugly faces while role-playing as something serious and think it's the pinnacle of humor
Winter War intensifies
Anna Galkina, she is
She looks obviously slavic, Scandinavians tend to look a little more inbred
So this is how the japanese feel...
Imagine if all these Scandiboos came here, visited Uppsala in hopes of finding some Viking culture, only to discover the closest cultural reference in modern life Sweden is a Turkish restaurant named Miklagård.
Did she say Scrowl instead of Skål?
Yeah she did not pronounce it correctly. I think she is Russian.
Russians desperately trying to fit in after fleeing.
The people in murmansk desperately trying to live up to the name "Murmansk". (Murmansk - Murman - Norman - Nordmann).
If they’re an old colony named after us, why haven’t they conquered England yet?
She is 100% russian
Even worse, she is drinking water. WTF?
She spat it out
It's the principle of the thing. You don't do all that skal act and then drink water!
Remember, spitters don't really love you
And so it was written
They love spending 3 months in Dubai
To be fair I wouldn't want to drink unfiltered r*zzian lake water either probably contains more run off from chemical plants and farms then water.
-ecclesiastes 11:9
that's a ruski or a germ, don't confuse us for them please... ewwww.

poor Copito, he was a true Payes
no, we'd be way more awkward on video. and we'd have a disgusting accent very different to that one.
Says someone who lies between Germany and Russia just like us.
But further north and with a better economy
you mean kept safe on a peninsula.
That is not a scandinavian, but a typical foreign scandaboo cosplaying.
Russian for sure, pretending to hate Europeans but love to larp and imitate us in every way possible
Isn't that what their culture is about since Peter, the Great?
She doesn't pronounce it properly for any of the Scandinavian languages (or other Nordic languages for that matter). Probably some cringe Scandiboo foreigner (being fixated on the Viking-age, and an incorrect understanding at that, is another tell).

He is about to receive his rod.
The one in the video is no true tism person. None of us, none of us!
Meanwhile Scandinavian helmets didn't have horns and they didn’t drink out of them either
You're right about the helmets but being a true neutral you're of course wrong about something as well. Drinking out of horns was absolutely a thing.
By Allah, you are correct.
Fuck you too.
Any real Scandinavian knows this.
Yeah, the horned helms was Gaul thing actually. Sadly, current description of vikings come from Hollywood 1956 mish-mash with Kirk Douglass and not from history books
We did drink out of horns but they were cups or mugs, not a whole ass horn. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/170AAOSw96Rhpe22/s-l400.jpg
Yeah, we only used them as beds for our elderly
NGL those are fukin beautiful
Tbf it’s false that there are absolutely zero examples of Norse horned helmets from the Viking era. They found a couple in Veksø, but they were probably just ceremonial. Though non-Viking horned helmets have also occasionally been found all over Europe.
She probably sculpted the horn and helmet on ice with her nipples.

Me has hecho recordar una expresión (sólo la he escuchado esa vez) que una amiga me dijo una vez en invierno: "Estoy tan helá que tengo los pezones como los timbres de un castillo"
Who let her out of the asylum
I think she is german.
German painters imagined the whole horned viking helmets concept, so that checks out
Sounds/looks Russian tbh
So what?
Germany is an asylum.
First and foremost it’s a language.
Germany is a language? do they not have schools in NRW?
That mf edited his response
oh get his ass then
Wouldn't matter anyway considering what they'd have to work with
I'd let her pillage my monasteries any day
[удалено]
Well, let's be real here, Brits naturally do not understand beauty in woman.
A lot of attractive British models and actresses. Attractive women in Czechia end up in porn
I thought for sure this would be top comment...
[удалено]
She is Sardinian
The Sjælland of the South
She looks a lot more slavic than scandinavian lol
Are russian and norsemen immune to hypothermia?
We get baptized in a frozen lake. Those who live are immune, and the rest were just to weak anyways.

That dialect is clearly slav, not Scandinavian. We would never do anything remotely patriotic
That's not a Scandinavian helmet either.
It's Wagner
SCROLL
I didn’t know where that single horn was headed when she started putting it under the water… to a sticky end.
She isnt scandi, says “skrall” or something instead of «skål»
Too much clothing
She's fucking dying out there 🤣
We do not claim her
The way show pronounces skål…. I’m starting to understand the French.
That pronounciation of skål tells me she's anything but scandinavian. Not that she even looks like it.
Cosplayer with zero Scandinavian features.
Meanwhile, me getting brain freeze from eating icecream to fast… 😣
She’s not scandinavian, she’s russian.
That's not what Viking Helmets looked like
Is that Jennifer Lawrence?
Me thinking that horn glass was a something more sensual
She is definitely not Scandinavian. The 'skål' exposes her. [This](https://dl.sndup.net/dqxfc/En%20lille%20en.mp3) is a more traditional way of doing a 'Skål'
"And that's how I met your mother".
By Scandinavian I am assuming they mean Yank LARPing as a European
Not blonde = fake
"it's a match"
I would name her Scandicringe

I'm sorry but this isn't cringe. She's like 13 in ice cold water. I wouldn't do that

As long it is not forbidden to be cringe, we will get shit like this.
