I'm sorry, wtf!!! A gallon of paint???? Please OP, that's ridiculous. We use metric here in Japan, it's 4 liters of paint. Do some research and get it right next time!

Finnish breakfast:

Coffee, vodka and a cigarette.

If you want to have vodka for breakfast, bah gawd you can just do it, no need to apply to anything.

Vodka is made from potatoes

Potatoes contain most of the nutrients you need to survive

QED vodka is a balanced breakfast

Common misconception, but the towel dipped in mayonaise (often paired with a well aged Trapist) is very typical for a Belgian breakfast, not the Germans.

Also it's a 98 Daewoo Tico, not a Focus

Duolingo keeps beating me up about trapist beer, the gravensteen being older than the atomium and red devils loving stew and sprouts

This is clearly out of date. The traditional UK breakfast now is nothing because inflation means I can only afford 1.5 meals a day.

Just stop being poor, problem solved

Have you tried being born rich? It would solve all your problems.

You might have to cut down on the beans, but you can still have a semi-traditional bowl of sadness for breakfast. Most important meal of the day.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Jokes on you, I'm having sadness for breakfast dinner and tea.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Have you seen the price of baked beans lately?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Just do breakfast and bangers and mash for dinner, skip the bangers.

Boom: 1.5 meals. Just worry about potato crop failure.

France: coffee and nicotine cancer sticks

Accurate. Also known as a champion's breakfast.

If a German has leftovers he helpfully leaves them atop pool chairs to feed the hungry.

Greece: the cheapest coffee the world has ever seen and Καρελια cigarettes

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

That‘s a common misconception. This ain‘t a 1998 Ford Focus, it‘s a 2010 Ford C-Max.

Germans eat Bröt mit Bröt

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Brötchen for the first breakfast, Brot for the second.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Germans- Bread, cheese and some variety of ham

Turkish breakfast

I understand the first two. I guess I don't get the rest.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It's random so it's funny holds up spork

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Drat, I've made coffee instead of paint again. One day I'll get it right.

Butterbrot. You know where.

Spain: bull horns and dirt.
