Godspeed fellow burger. We need to teach these Europoors to be friendly with each other in public

>>74077248
there's a yearly cohort of norwegian exchange students to my uni's grad school and they were actually all very outgoing and friendly to talk to. maybe cause there in america

I remember some Swedish guy was visually trembling in a public bus. I sat right next to him, put my arm around his tiny shoulders and talked to him about the many different serial killers in America.

>>74077248

We don't trust strangers. You need to prove you're not a threat, at the very least.

>>74078603
What kind of a place is Scandinavia in which a man who owns a tulip garden still pings on the radar as a threat?

>>74078779
I fertilize my tulip garden with the blood of the innocent

Something similar happened to me.. I sat on the bus, and this guy sat down next to me and started rambling about cheap apartments. I just sat there quietly and hoped he would stop talking.
It was a nightmare.

The fact that he enters his/her personal space. Scandinavians keep the longest distance when socializing, especially with strangers. The best way to approach a Scandinavian is to find any kind of interest they hold, and then maybe find a good segue to get to know them better.

I know for one that I expect literally everyone I don't know to be a mugger, so I have a very dismissive body language wherever I go in public in general. Never had anything happen to me, though.

Maybe we overthink social gestures.

I know that you in America say "how are you doing?" without legitimately asking how someone else is doing. I prefer when back in the day you just said "howdy" or something.

I would be confused if a newly arrived neighbour gave me pastry. I wouldn't know if it was just a nice gesture, plain and simple, or if you had other intentions with giving me them.

How the fuck can you be so paranoid of someone mugging you when you are in fucking Norway? I´m also paranoid but that´s justifiable since i live in a shithole.

Last saturday i was in a car with some friends and 4 guys in 2 motorcycles looking very shady, started following us. We had to lose them since they were obviously waiting for a chance to stop us and assault us (i´ve seen that before). I was high so the experience was very terrifying.
I bet you don´t have to be afraid of something like that happening to you in Norway.

Haha hey Jón, why don't you stop on over and grab a burger? The game's on!

I'm from the American South so I'm used to nodding and smiling to every white person you walk past and them doing the same. It was weird when I went to university and they all stared at the ground and shit. Europeans seem to be a special brand of autist. I dislike making small talk with randoms, but at least say hello if you're sitting together so you aren't sitting on a train trying desperately to avoid interaction like weirdos.

>>74080036

>>74080036
I'm from Texas and I once went up to New York to visit my at the time girlfriend. We were walking back to place I was staying in Queens and I waved hello to some random lady on the sidewalk watering her flowers. She gave this nervous smile and nodded her head.
Yankee girlfriend was immensely confused by this and asked if I knew her and when I said I didn't and that in Texas it's normal to wave hello to people you passed she told me it was weird and that you can look creepy doing it.
The fuck's the point in living in a giant community if you're afraid of everyone you walk past on the street?

>>74080135
For example if I'm on public transit and I sit down next to or across from somebody I'll be like "Hows it going?" or at the very least give them a respectful nod and a "hello"

>>74080255
Leave us alone REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>74080209
Yeah when I go for a run in my neighborhood I wave to every car that passes and they do that two finger wave on the top of the steering wheel. Or if I see somebody drive by my house or walk by I'll wave. Just common courtesy in your community.

>>74080255
Why do you feel the need to say something?

>>74080209
>The fuck's the point in living in a giant community if you're afraid of everyone you walk past on the street?

There are no communities in Northern cities; the people just live like rats partitioned in their own little worlds.

Because its autistic not to. Most Americans try to strike up a conversation, I just say something so there isn't a weird silence and there is an acknowledgement.

>>74079857

No, not really, but I'm prepared to some degree. I thought Ecuador was supposed to be alright, but I guess not.

>>74079892

A friend of mine is a Brit, and he's been assaulted once, and had his bike stolen once in Oslo. We do have shitty people here too, and shit like that might happen when you trust strangers too much. I wish I didn't have to be like that, but some people spoil it for everyone wherever in the world you might be. I wish we in Norway could adopt some of that Eastern European pummeling of people who dare commit crime, but it's too rare here, and people will generally ignore instead.
