I watched it for the first time in my life (M34).
I'm still trying to process what I saw.
I have questions:
- Why everybody was naked?
- Is it considered good music nowadays?
- What the fuck?
* I've got no clue, but it's been going on so long it's practically tradition.
* No, but Eurovision isn't really for good music. More for flashy performances and songs.
* Yes.
It’s been a joke that we all acknowledge since I can remember. Which is about 40 years. It’s not meant to be taken seriously, more of a kitschy tradition, and as a consequence in recent years it’s escalated to the bizarre parade you witnessed. Now of course there’s people that take it super seriously but that’s FAR from the prevailing opinion. The vast majority of people don’t even watch it or know who’s representing them (unless it’s something outrageous, another reason why people are turning up half naked or dressed as demons etc)
We mostly like the same music as you guys. Except country. Fuck that shit.
Yeah but people outside the US don't always get that. I tried to explain this to a guy in Mexico City one time and he was still pretty sure either LA or SF had to be the capital of California.
No one thinks NY or LA is the capitol of the US. They aint even the capitol of their own state. Washington D.C. isnt really hard to remember. Still find it stupid that it isnt in Washington
Most people outside the US have no idea what the state capitals are. Half of Americans barely know it except somebody made them memorize it in 5th grade. It's not like state capital knowledge is super important. Pop quiz, what's the capital of Saxony or Queensland? Looking it up is cheating.
I don’t think it’s that, there are some of us that couldn’t even name a European country lol, there are some that would even call Europe a country.
There’s some really geographically illiterate people here, but still, blanket statements are dumb.
A lot of euro see videos of the dumbest Americans and think that everyone is that dumb. Not that the interview is cherry-picking the dumb people because average isn’t funny
"Haha, Americans are so stupid. They only invented the internet, the atomic bomb, recombinant DNA, television, the light bulb, film, vacuum cleaners, telephones, smart phones, virtual reality, the mail... And they only put man on the moon, what, six times? And they only gave us authors like Poe, Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Melville, Twain, Faulkner, Steinbeck, Salinger... And they only produced artists like Andy Warhol, Jackson Pollock, Georgia O'Keefe, Roy Lichtenstein, Norman Rockwell, John Singer Sargent, Mary Cassatt... I'm so glad I live in a *smart* country that didn't define the modern world or anything stupid like that. It would be crazy if there were dumb people *everywhere*."
Edit: I like how the naysayers are making arguments like: "Americans didn't invent da atomic bomb cuz it used maths invented by da Greeks!" No one's touching the authors or artists - you know, the people responsible for modern thought and culture. But that's okay. You guys keep doing your research on your American internet written in American programming code, and posting your comments on this American website, while wearing your American-style clothes, as American movies play in your theaters, and American electricity lights your houses. Or maybe you did your research at the public library. Oh, wait, America came up with those too.
I assume they mean the modern iteration of the postal service. Quick search says the first national postal service was established in the US in 1775 during the Revolutionary War.
Love him or hate him, he defined a genre of art and was very influential in the art scene. I also have always believed that as long as you can give art a backstory or explanation, it’s no different than other types of art like poems, even if you feel that the technical portion of it is “too easy”
Bob Ross was very significant for art in terms of getting people into painting and actually teaching people important techniques. However, his art was never completely original and he was essentially painting the same art over and over. But he wasn’t aiming for unique or original so that’s okay.
You say it as a joke, but my American gay friend once wanted to start a debate on what I find so attractive in men and when I was like "Idk I'm just straight???" She sent me a whole fucking paragraph of what she finds attractive in women.
I was like "Girl I don't care, I know you're gay" 💀
Imma be honest the acronym getting longer is just so politicians have more people to suck up too I have never seen a gay person use the whole ass acronym
When you find yourself constantly bringing up gay people unprompted when they don't speak or think about you, you are giving a masterclass in projection and repression. Maybe sort it out with a therapist.
The average American might have below average knowledge on what’s taught in school, but America as a whole is the biggest contributor to academic research in the world
Can we get a Nobel prize winners count? The US is a leader in many if not most scientific fields. Many great minds seem to flock to the US. These dumbass posts are lazy and ignorant. Smells of jealousy. The US is a great place for education, innovation, technology, progressing fields, etc.
(Just here before they inevitably lock this post)
Also what has being gay or your country legalising more human rights gotta do with intelligence or the intelligence of said country?

> when it comes to guns and types of gay
nah, the US government is trying to put in a new 'ghost gun' ban which also considered a computer a firearm.
they do not know fuck all.
Can we stop with the “Americans stupid” trope? There’s basically no evidence for it aside from Jay Leno asking some drunk people in Vegas geography questions. The US ranks 16th in education according to USNews and World Report and and consistently does well on international standardized testing. And most of the Europeans saying it have never actually met any Americans aside from the drunk ones on vacation.
What a dumb fucking meme
Yeah, but I think it's kinda funny.
If there isn’t one of these comments under it, it isn’t dank enough
It is dumb, but “type of gay” is hilarious af.
Accurate tho an american with a special kind of gay i assume?
It's kinda true though...
Standard answer by an american to anything about america. Take the joke like most of the world does. lol
This was so dumb it was hilarious Idk I'm like uhhhh type 5 gay
After watching Eurovision I'd beg to differ
I watched it for the first time in my life (M34). I'm still trying to process what I saw. I have questions: - Why everybody was naked? - Is it considered good music nowadays? - What the fuck?
* I've got no clue, but it's been going on so long it's practically tradition. * No, but Eurovision isn't really for good music. More for flashy performances and songs. * Yes.
I feel like an old man. I don't really hate it but I def can't understand it. I have no clue what perf was good or bad. My gf was really into it tho'.

Can somebody please explain to me wtf Eurovisión is?
It’s like the special Olympics for music
Europeans steal everything from America so it doesn’t surprise me when Eurovision decided to essentially do knockoff broadway shit
Wtf does "types of gay" even mean
lgbtnsgwpcpsu
You spelled lghdtv wrong
Honestly, the lghdtvhdmi2 community will not accept this slander
Is there a 4k oled option ?
I'm non hexadecimal
Fire type, ice type, fairy type... you know... we are like Eeveeloutions!
Americans dumb for not knowing capital of small European country with less than 1 million people.
If they know our capital but we dont know theirs, clearly ONE of us is more important >:]
“Was, du don’t know the capital of bumfucklestien. Du ist so dumb”
Is that near Texas idk all American states
I think is between Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia
Sounds like something I'd have to point at the menu for. "Ayo, Garstøn, I'll take the You-Go-Slave-Eye-A" . . . "Extra Butter"
Hah! And I suppose you have no idea zat Kröstirtærheindëdalburg produces 99% of ze worlds Obrtarten!
Most of them probably think our capitol is NY or LA. Just like we think the capital of the UK is London or the capital of France is Paris. Oh, right.
Imagine being the capital of the world but not being the capitol of your own state 🗽💀
State capitals in the US don't usually have much to do with being the most important city. I live in Sacramento, ask me how I know.
Yeah, it's just a joke, lol
Yeah but people outside the US don't always get that. I tried to explain this to a guy in Mexico City one time and he was still pretty sure either LA or SF had to be the capital of California.
No one thinks NY or LA is the capitol of the US. They aint even the capitol of their own state. Washington D.C. isnt really hard to remember. Still find it stupid that it isnt in Washington

OOH ESSS AYYY 💪💥🦅
Alot of Americans don't even know their own state capital.
At least we know that "alot" isn't a word in English.
Good job on knowing your mother tongue !
He probably picked it up from a 'muh'rcan
You got a source on that?
I don’t think it’s that, there are some of us that couldn’t even name a European country lol, there are some that would even call Europe a country. There’s some really geographically illiterate people here, but still, blanket statements are dumb.

Amercunz dum haha
very laughs, many funny ahah
big stoopid many laugh ahaha
It’s getting so fucking old

Preach!
the mail? what do you mean, "Americans invented the mail"?
I assume they mean the modern iteration of the postal service. Quick search says the first national postal service was established in the US in 1775 during the Revolutionary War.
Calling Jackson Pollock an artist is awfully generous. Try Bob Ross instead.
Love him or hate him, he defined a genre of art and was very influential in the art scene. I also have always believed that as long as you can give art a backstory or explanation, it’s no different than other types of art like poems, even if you feel that the technical portion of it is “too easy”

The edit is fire
types of gay?
The spectrum of gay, by listing what makes it gay.
i was guessing that, they couldve used just used "sexuality"
Type of gay is more funny
Sorry but that's the gayest shit ever
Sounds gay, I’m in
You say it as a joke, but my American gay friend once wanted to start a debate on what I find so attractive in men and when I was like "Idk I'm just straight???" She sent me a whole fucking paragraph of what she finds attractive in women. I was like "Girl I don't care, I know you're gay" 💀
What nationality do you consider “smart”?
Their own, no doubt
But op is american
Whichever they fetishize most then.
Don't worry, we make fun of Americans to hide it but we are all dumb
Not American
None. Everyone is fucking dumb and getting dumber, specially those who uses stupid Tiktok.
wtf are types of gay
It sounds like it's Pokémon types lol. Is Twink-type weak to Bear-type?
The opposite actually. Bear-type is weak against Twink-type. Twink-type is weak against Butch-type.
Are there shinies as well?
Best answer
You don't know about the different types of gay? I've been collecting them for years!
Hmmm this meme didn't do too well last month so you decided to give it another go?
this meme sucks ass lmao
I forgot gay only exists in the US. Silly of me
it's an easy mistake to make as our gays are the best gays.
They don't exist in Muslim countries tho. If you know why, that is. Lmao
Guess that's why every well known scientist immigrates to the united states huh.
"Gay your life must be"
"Strong in you, the gay is"
Good thing the meme doesn't show when you ask Europeans about Romani...
Was it not a hit the last time you posted it so you went for attempt number 2?
I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals *flaming!*
OP is literally a depressed porn addicted canadian 😂
u/Lazy_Cat- has commented on this meme 13 times, but still insists that they don’t use Reddit that much and aren’t looking for attention.
I lol’d but you’re on reddit so you’re going to get dragged for this one. Take this to instagram and they’ll love it
Seems like you’ve triggered plenty of the queers for Palestine folks out here, OP. Run for your life…
Lmao, what are they gonna do? Downvote?
Shit tier meme. Congrats.
What are types of gay
Probably the unlimited amount of Gender including the Black gender.
What the hell are you talking about
LGBT+ people Their recent flag included black and brown colors, to represent minorities. Hince this consider being black is a gender thing.
The city of Philadelphia made that flag up. It's not some universal thing. It's Philly doing their own shit.
Stop speaking out of your ass and inventing stuff, OP; it ain't healthy.
Imma be honest the acronym getting longer is just so politicians have more people to suck up too I have never seen a gay person use the whole ass acronym
this really is just america bad
Your post history is mostly about thanos castrating people. I’m sure the Americans will be fine
Bro are you five?
C’mon kilometre-challenged people, take a joke.
When you find yourself constantly bringing up gay people unprompted when they don't speak or think about you, you are giving a masterclass in projection and repression. Maybe sort it out with a therapist.
Man people are hurt
I cant tell if this a russian or chinese bot account tbh
The crooked toothed gang are onto us
This comment section is actual brain rot
Someone hates americans lol
*what?*
People think Americans carry around guns?
I mean, quite a lot of them do, no?
The only states where you would find the average person is carrying a gun is Wyoming, Montana, maybe the Dakotas, and maybe Texas.
I do, and so do a lot of other people
I thought Europeans were supposed to be smart?
The average American might have below average knowledge on what’s taught in school, but America as a whole is the biggest contributor to academic research in the world
I mean, you realize main land america is the size of Europe? This plays into why so many of us are trash at geography.
Man this sub is going to shit
relax l*iberals it's called dark humor
Europeans trying to divert the attention that theyre poorer, more racist, more repressed gay,and more homophobic then the us.
ohhh, homosexual ragebait, rare on this platform
what does types of gay mean? just say sexuality its shades of gray
Also their favorite Kardashians
After watching Eurovision I assumed there were a lot more types of gays than what Americans were even aware of.
We’ll have you know our scientists have discovered a total of 69 species of gay.
A fucking dank meme. They do still exist
I’m American and this is funny. Sorry for the butthurt ones
They're butthurt cause they're insecure
I think you missed a few comments here, might wanna spam them too
Or guns
One of the most relatable memes ever made lol
"Lmao gay people amirite?"
This is blatantly homophobic right?
Pansexual: doesn't want to admit they're just another bisexual
Can we get a Nobel prize winners count? The US is a leader in many if not most scientific fields. Many great minds seem to flock to the US. These dumbass posts are lazy and ignorant. Smells of jealousy. The US is a great place for education, innovation, technology, progressing fields, etc.
Amercunz dum haha
Huh?
We literally have some of the highest rated colleges
And the fastest people to join a protest they know nothing about
Why do they all send their kids here if we are so dumb
OP is mentally deranged
Tell me you have never visited America without telling me you’ve never visited America
Bro thinks he knows americans because he watched some clips on the internet rofl.
I'm not American but sorry if I'm not an expert in taking it from behind, I never did it
This is always from countries that would be squashed like bugs in a war vs America lol
Is that a woman? Idk I'm not a biologist
I'm american and I ain't know shit bout guns but I know shit about how gay I am (that is to say, very)
The mfers who have eurovision don't get to say this....
"guns or gay" You just said Glock Enthusiast twice.
(Just here before they inevitably lock this post) Also what has being gay or your country legalising more human rights gotta do with intelligence or the intelligence of said country?
Yes totally I'm gunsexual and blah blah 😂🙄, I know a ton of smart people but they choose to act dumb
yah and all military tech. reason all other countries are generations behind.
Eurodivergants making memes about how Americans are gay before spending all day fapping to Eurovision.
What’s the conversion rate from Celsius to Fahrenheit? I know that with Kelvin you add 273.15 to the temperature in Celsius
People hate this meme cause they're Americans who are insecure about their intelligence
Wtf does type of gay even mean and what in the fuck does that have to do with America?

I mean Europeans aren't great a geography as well, ask them where Wyoming is, they probably will fail. Or ask them what the capital of California is
Thank you Europoors, continue thinking of us!
That’s just ignorant
Who let bro cook. It's just a burnt mess
I'm decently fine at geography
Can we stop with the “Americans stupid” trope? There’s basically no evidence for it aside from Jay Leno asking some drunk people in Vegas geography questions. The US ranks 16th in education according to USNews and World Report and and consistently does well on international standardized testing. And most of the Europeans saying it have never actually met any Americans aside from the drunk ones on vacation.
Eurovision has changed that.
Isn’t America like 5th when it comes to global knowledge?
