New finnish guy just started an internship here at work
they are lonely low energy people
thats why many nordics are here
>implying a finn wouldnt just say "good" followed by an awkward silence
Made up story.
very rare to find a talkative finn, they are stereotyped as autismos here and we're a pretty non sociable people ourselves.
>went to australia 2 years ago
>entered a store
>the manager was smiling and said "good day mate, how are you?"
>i'm just about to answer but he already moves his attention to something else
When I went to America, I didn't understand sarcasm. I was talking to a woman, and she said "that's really interesting, please continue" but then she walked away when I talked again.
Still, I think this woman was a bitch.
a finish person going in to personal monologue while sober in front of an unknown person
yeah, and pigs fly
the funny thing is that the most sociable people here are either drunk or have aspergers
Or psychopaths.
>being more socially retarded than a scandi
A dyke run me over in Oslo once and just yelled "UNSKYLD" in a fucking aggressive tone.
Returned to my cruise ship after and got wasted at 5€ cocktails after.
Scandis are fucking cunts and you're even worse, OP.
>either drunk
that is not surprising
>I'm too polite to exit the conversation
Literally an Anglo-Cuckson problem
what else is there to say?
You should have molestered her on a train/bus
>say "hi, how are you" to him
>he goes on a 10 minute monologue
Also, in continental Europe we don't ask "how are you" unless we mean it. We are not hypocrite bastards like Anglo saxons, who ask about your situation but don't expect a truthful answer.
Why the fuck you asked then?
>ask "How are you?"
>expect a single word answer regardless of the person feelings and mood
What's the point then. Just say hi or good morning/good afternoon
Anyone else would say "good, you?"
Finns are too autistic to even do the "you" part, not even kidding
This happens all the time. Someone walking by you asks how you are, but they keep walking so you just say hey or something quick. It's pretty retarded.
These are mostly memes. A lot of times I go buy groceries people small talk with the staff.
"wery good thanks for you of asking me"
now be honest, did this actually happen?
>country of autists
>aspies are considered sociable
Makes sense really
No way, they are too autistic for simple conversations
it's amusing to read what foreigners think how finland is because nobody on Sup Forums actually knows what finland really is like except those who have been here
Perkele I am depress I am kill myself
We literally ask 'how are you doing?' (kako ti gre) as our basic greeting, which has lately mutated into 'how are you?' (kako si), so, um, about that, sweetie...
I actually had more people start smalltalk with me in Finland than back home
every other meme about Finland is 100% true though
>>say "hi, how are you"
this triggers the non-Anglo
in america, talk is cheap
I actually fell for this. I realised my mistake later. It is not my fault, why do you ask questions which you don't mean?
I hate this
>Fin talks
>Americans are too fat to listen
