Amblève. 4,995 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I don't know about Finland but I do know that Japan has the highest suicide rates in the worldYeah, Japan's one of the leading nations for committing suicide. It's even the main cause of death for people under the age of 30 there, IIRC.Sure. Like Spike posted, Japan and a bunch of other countries have even higher rates but they do it for different reasons than our lot. Here everything is supposed to be great with one of the best education and healthcare systems in the world, not to mention them being completely free for everyone, no matter what your family's wealth or social status is. No one has to live on the streets because the government gives free money to people without jobs to get them back on their feet so one could assume everything is quite well here. In reality no one is ever happy and people have a shitload of problems with alcohol and other drugs and then they go and kill themselves when it gets even really depressing in winter time. I remember reading somewhere that the vast majority of suicides in Finland happen during those 4 months of the coldest and darkest winter period, so I'm not even making this sht up. Can't wait till I graduate and find a job somewhere else, shouldn't even be a problem with the supposedly world class education we have here.I remember, after the PISA exams last year politicians here in Austria would tell us that, in general, people in Finland are very happy with their lives, mainly because they've had such a good education at school This whole suicide topic is still a taboo subject here, for example, it has never ever been discussed in my class at school which IMO is absolutely ridiculous.

Liquidator 5,176 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Rmpr have you ever had dirty thoughts about dilma? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmpr 8,977 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 That's not what we think in Britain I also associate Brazilians with samba. Every time I viewed Rio´s carnival I saw plenty of samba dancers, then.Anyway, it seems like a pretty slow day on transfers.The way the World sees Brazil is not wrong, but it only applies to Rio de Janeiro. It is like saying everyone in the USA lives like New Yorkers (eating all those cheap pizzas, going to Central Park and Times Square, using the subway everywhere, etc).If you go to RJ, you will see all of that shit you find on TV (beach volleyball, beautiful women, very small biquinis, samba, feijoada, etc). However, Brazil is really big and diversified... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmpr 8,977 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Rmpr have you ever had dirty thoughts about dilma?Enough with the Dilma talk!She is very uggly, but she is still my president. She is actually doing a good job and her look does not interfere in her duties.It is funny when we joke once or twice while I am drunk and having fun at the pool, now it is boring....

Why do you think everybody wants to go to Rio? However, if you want the craziest (aka: easy sex) hot girls and best parties, go to Caldas Country. I went there last year and it was just wild!About the football thing, it is half true. I still see a lot of kids playing football on small streets. It is ending though, the cities are getting bigger and the kids lose space to cars, violence, etc. When I was in high school, we had to rent a football pitch to be able to play. We shared the amount and played almost every week, ended up costing 4 or 5 bucks to each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppen 934 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I bet none of them have even visited this country, let alone ask the people who actually live here if they're as happy as they seem to think. Lol, funny how this Nordic/Scandinavian drama unveils. In Denmark everyone not capable of getting a job for whatever reason gets economical help from the state, health care is free etc. Basically the same pattern throughout the Scandinavian countries. However we always complain how Norway got the areas in the North Sea containing all the oil fields in a treaty signed by our government, and in school I often hear this sentence: "We should look towards Finland, they are using the same principles as ourselves, the only difference being that theirs are more effective." Don't really know about that one, since most jobs here are pretty well paid! Regarding Sweden, most Danes hate them. Not particular reason, mainly just because they are Swedes (no offense to any Swedes, just a bit of Scandinavian banter!). However, we can all agree that Sweden has the sexiest girls. Seriously. Lucky bastards. Amblève. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems like a lot of fun and it seems like there's an interesting atmosphere there. But I can only judge based on documentaries I have seen etc. I just want to go to South America to be honest.In reply to the football thing, that sounds more realistic than the idealistic image I had in my head.
