Quick reminder that "Europe" is a mosaic of countries, and that there is a huge difference between let's say, Portugal, Austria and Latvia.
I don't really think there is a country which would be so liberal regarding marriage that you could get married by Elvis or a Machine on short notice amd drunk just to get laid (on the other hand, most European cultures stopped caring about marriage, and donxt need it to get laid or have kids)
Kinda like when people lump California and Alabama together when talking about Americans. Annoying, isn't it?
The differences between California and Alabama are still an order of magnitude or more smaller than between e.g. Portugal and Latvia.
All you just told me is that you haven't been to either. You couldn't be more wrong.
This is classic r/ShitAmericansSay
lol at the UK tag while talking shit
I'm not making any bullshit claims about my country. You are.
It isn't bullshit. I don't what else to tell you. 50 states, each with their own cultures and dialects. If you don't want to believe it, that's your business, but that's the way it is.
I can't even be bothered arguing. Your level of stupid has been proven time and again to be immune to facts and reason. It's very obvious you've never been to either of those fucking countries though otherwise you wouldn't say what you did.
If you say so. Doesn't help that you jumped straight to calling me stupid for trying to tell you how it is. You don't bother arguing because you don't know what you're talking about to begin with. Go back to reddit. You fit in better there.
Cool. So you resort to insults and unsupported denial as your strongest arguments. You got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.
If I thought you were amenable to changing your mind I'd consider arguing my point, but I've yet to see an American with such a brain-dead opinion change their mind. It would be like trying to convince a MAGAt that Donnie is unfit to be President.
You aren't arguing. You're just saying "nuh uh" and "ur stupid". Well, you got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.
Re-read my first sentence. I know.
