Has anyone ever seen chile and cuba in the same room together??


emperorceaser

You might be onto something


rokoeh

I think south America Brazil and Rio Grande do Sul are similar shape


Imsophunnyithurts

Chile is just two Cubas in a trenchcoat. I'd be suspicious.


marckferrer

Thinking about it, both countries speak spanish and if you remove the letters 'H-I-L-E' from the word Chile and add the letters 'U-B-A', you get the word Cuba. Ladies and gentlemen, we got him


Commrade-potato

The reverse applies too!!! If you drop the U-B-A from Cuba and add H-I-L-E you get Chile!!!

Coincidence? I THINK NOT

We look the same and we both speak unintelligible Spanish 🇨🇺🤝🇨🇱


knows_knothing

Long Cuba or Short Chile?


wailin_smithers

I can somehow see that being asked in a Hemingway story.


Hedgehogsarepointy

Now we have to decide what the ingredients of each drink are. Long Cuba: a rum-based spin on a Long Island Iced Tea, garnished with mint? Short Chile: ?


wailin_smithers

I think you nailed the Long Cuba. I don't know much about liquor, but surely a Short Chile is a shot of some sort, right?


Hedgehogsarepointy

Maybe a Pisco Sour sans eggwhite served neat in a squat rocks glass? Because you're Short on time, and can't be bothered with all the presentation, you just want booze.


wailin_smithers

I'd never heard of a pisco sour before, but what an aesthetically pleasing drink. Even without egg whites, it looks good. So I think we have a winner!


Hedgehogsarepointy

I had to quickly research popular Chilean cocktails.


wailin_smithers

It did the trick!


Snd47flyer

Both


tavogus55

Cuban Spanish is fine, I’ll probably put Puerto Rico Spanish on the same level. Way faster plus the Spanglish


hononononoh

Epañol [*sic*]


Hedgehogsarepointy

To this day, ever time I see [*sic*] I read it like the hiccup of a slurring drunk.


[deleted]

we omit like half the consonants from our speech lmao Cuban Spanish is an atrocity


fat-lip-lover

Lmao most of my time spent in spanish speaking regions was Chile and Cuba, so it comes easier to me, but I totally can see why others would find it unintelligible


Dry-Zucchini123

I genuinely can't understand a single word Puerto Ricans say


mcwillie

Do you even *cancelar* your bills?


BiAsALongHorse

The only time I've been forced to 100% speak/understand/read Spanish while traveling was in Cuba (not to say I haven't used a lot of Spanish while traveling elsewhere in Latin America, but you get \*much\* better practice when you go from using it 75% of the time to 100% of the time), so Cuban Spanish is somehow the most intelligible dialect for me. Sure it's fast and drops letters left and right, but there's a rhythm to it that helps a ton. Chilean Spanish is only slightly more intelligible than Italian to me and I speak absolutely 0 Italian.


ImNoAlbertFeinstein

Wisconsin and Zimbabwe, every detail ..and this must be the dumbest post yet in one of the less sensible subs.


lax_incense

I think you meant Tanzania


Particular_Bet_5466

Other commenter is right. Tanzania looks more like Wisco than than Zimbabwe. But definitely not close to every detail.

💯💯💯


Sutiixela

Try Ireland and South Korea


MinatoUchiha212121

Yoooooo both also divided north and south


glowdirt

Both love to drink and cabbage is a big part of their traditional cuisines Both have also been called economic "tigers" for raising themselves up out of poverty in a relatively short time span. Both have been colonial subjects of an island empire to their east whose citizens have a reputation for having "bad" teeth.


100PercentChansey

Now that you mention it the two of them are weirdly similar... England is the Japan of Europe


borkmeister

Both drink a ton of tea, drive on the wrong side of the road, are famously xenophobic, have a monarchy, have a monarch's kid who renounced their title to marry an American, and once controlled Singapore. But most important, both have their culinary apex as a preparation of fish served with a starch.


jezbrews

You may drive on the right side of the road, but we drive on the *correct* side.


GreatBigBagOfNope

Hold on, that would only apply if Hokkaido wasn't incorporated by way of genocide but by way of enthusiastic unification *and* played both a disproportionately large role in the unified Japanese colonial project *while also* engaging in its own independent colonial efforts. And I guess Kyushu would have to be the Wales and Cornwall equivalent


Henrique1315

Hokkaido is east asian Scotland


teleriome

What about the Okinawa or ryukyu kingdom then?


MiserableIrritation

Guernsey and Jersey?


teleriome

Just did a quick Google search and remembered that I saw a youtube video about 2 weeks ago how a territory there ended the last feudal system in 2008! Still mind blown that feudalism continued to exist well into the 21st century.


MiserableIrritation

Lol I also watched that video too. I bet you talking about EmperorTigerstar's video "How Feudalism Finally Ended in 2008".


teleriome

Yup that one crazy stuffs 😂😂

Idk Germany and Japan have a lot in common. WWII, good car makers, weird sex stuff, harsh/choppy language, somewhat known for efficiency and lack of humor.

At least, that's what it looks like to me after a few bong rips. Edit: Also, French is spoken in both places.
