    Am I the only one who thinks it’s rude to just ask someone for a hit off a joint like that? Been to lots of festivals and shows, and been offered plenty of things, but never once thought to go ask someone for a piece of whatever they are enjoying. Seems pretty presumptuous to me? Maybe it’s more common in other parts of the world though.

      Yeah, if someone decides to pass you a joint, awesome, but pestering people for weed is annoying. Personally, after COVID, I’m not sharing anything that touches my lips with anybody I wouldn’t kiss.

      Seriously, the amount of times I’ve had someone I don’t know ask for a hit of my dab pen is insane.

    It’s true. A beer is only half the price of a cigarette, grocery store price. He should give you two.

    However, the cigarette to beer ratio is opposite in bars.

        Almost equivalent to $12 USD where I’m at. You could get a pack for $9 when I started.

        But still, a beer is like half that.

          Half of a single cigarette or half of $12?

      Are you comparing the price of a single cigarette to a single bottle of beer?

        Yes, and while it’s obviously a bit of a joke, the prices have been like that when beer is on sale. Cigarettes are never on sale.

      Not a stereotype, but an anecdote:
      When I visited Finland, I stood on a sidewalk and wanted to take a picture of a church on the other side of the street.
      A car was driving along the road, and the driver stopped when he saw me so he wouldn’t get in the way of my photo.

      That absolutely boggled my German mind.

              There’s a joke that when the recommendation from the pandemic for standing six feet apart was removed, Finnish people sighed in relief because they could finally go back to their usual ten feet.

      This meme features a Finn in his full glory. Standing 10 feet away, quietly minding his own business.

    Every single stereotype is based in truth. That’s why they are stereotypes.

      Stereotypes can form a few ways. Not all of which are based upon truth. Illusory correlation is the phenomenon of perceiving a relationship between variables even when no such relationship exists.

      No I think some of them are just racism.

        Hey it’s not necessarily racism; could just be garden-variety bigotry too

      A lot of stereotypes are based on pure racism and general prejudice

      Every single stereotype is based in truth propaganda.

      Most stereotypes have their birth in cultural propaganda. They reinforce the tribal in-group vs out-group that humans naturally fall into.
