There are many lovely, beautiful and wonderful things about our great Czech nation... but I'm homesick, and thusly, thought I should share the few things that baffle me about my temporary home.
1) Why are so many people on crutches?! My housemate theorizes that the hearty diet of potatoes and pork has bred a nation of gout... possible... but who knows.
2) Why no deodorant? WHY?! Now that the warm air has hit the great Czech nation, tram rides are becoming increasingly unpleasant.
3) So many churches, so little religion.
4) Obscene PDA's: on the tram... between middle-aged couples... sitting in consecutive front facing seats. Necks aren't supposed to bend that far. Also, please keep your tongue in your own mouth.
6) Ketchup... on everything.
7) ALWAYS shutting bathroom doors when it's vacant... how are you supposed to tell it's empty if you shut the door all the way?!
8) Plaid pants with giant solid color patches on the knees, why does EVERYONE have a pair? *UPDATE* I just found out they're gardening pants... practical yet undeniably PLAID. Function does not eclipse fashion people, not even in the eastern block.
9) Paying for the basket of pre-dinner bread.
That's all for now.
XO,
MC
