I realized that there are an incredibly wide array of people on this site....so I got to thinking it could be cool to write questions for specific nationalities or regions (South, West or East of NA).

So for all you Swedes out there - what beer do you typically drink? What is a good Swedish beer?

If you get to the north pole, and he isn't there, he is probably just at the other one.

Are you even scottish or have been to scotland??? I mean that was my best guess too, that's why I suggested it, but I was kinda hoping for an answer from someone that lives there every day all year.

Do you ever confuse Nokia as being a Nipponise company?

Nipponise, is it a social no go to buy an Xbox?

Koreans, do your fathers beet you if you don't get into a minimum of 6 American universities.

Brits, why do you say mum? But don't say muther?

French, how does it feel to be NATO's vagina?

Canadians, why don't you, as the weird 51st state, not pay federal income tax to D.C.?

Russians, do you miss the cold war?

People form Sweden. I read that you guys have the highest bisexual girl population in the world. Is this true? And are your women really as hot as they appear? Hopefully this makes sense as i am in no state to be typing.

I'm not a connoisseur when it comes to beer, but a Newcastle Brown Ale is what I mostly drink if I can pick myself

for swedish beers I think most of them just taste like water, but Indianviken Pale Ale is a good one!

if I'm writing them down as I go I can name every state. I can also name every country in the world though. But on average I'd say if you went to a random person in Ottawa here they'd be able to name 15ish states.

eh is a polite way of turning a statement into a question.

example ,

rather than saying "yo that was a pretty sick move!"

you'd say..

"yo that was a pretty sick move, eh?"

it's a way of encouraging a conversation rather than just saying shit. we're nice people. we like to have other's get involved too :]

I'll take a shout at this as well, just to say that this applies to most of the Western countries, I'd suppose.

Had to learn your states and capitals in junior high for some reason. Not the provinces of Canada, though, but there aren't that many right? Ontario, Nova Scotia, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Newfoundland... that's all I got.

Yeah it's mainly for weddings, formal things - If an event is black tie I'll usually rock my kilt.

Other than that people where them at sports events like international rugby or football, but usually a shit load more casual than a full dress (formal) kilt.

There are also the unlucky souls who work in kilt shops and tartan tat shops (if you've ever been to Scotland those are the ones blasting shitty covers of scottish songs and trying to sell you a kilt beach towel and other crap otherwise known as the tourist economy) and some of them require that you wear a kilt everyday as your job.

Also there is the odd old guy up north or on the islands who's always wearing a kilt.

And yup I am actually Scottish.

When I was in grade 6 I had tests on Canadian, US and world   history/ social studies BS. This inculded looking at a US map and name and matching something like a minimum of 25 states (but listing all names).

Well, we are only allowed to listen to national anthems and folk lore poetry, but I hear some of the gangster kids went under the radar and started listening to some band called "The Beetles".

No way. If Diegosean can argue that people from within the same nation have somewhat different nationalities, then you are not allowed to ask questions to scandinavians as if we were one people.. period.

And I lol'ed at your question to the french.
