Nalju rahvuste arvel :P

Jätkuks eelmisele listile leidsin Ravelry´st selle:

You are estonian if you think that...
  1. Verivorst tastes great (at least once a year at Christmas time)
  2. You want truth and justice (tõde ja õigus) to rule the world
  3. You think that the combination blue-black-white is cheerful
  4. You know that love for 3 oranges is not a weird sex thing and the phrase ‘x 6 me’ makes absolutely sense
  5. For you it is totally normal to eat food gone sour (hapupiim, hapukurk, hapukapsas, hapukoor)
  6. A language should have at least 14 cases
  7. You know the moves to the song ‘Põdra maja’
  8. You consider ‘Õllepruulija’ an unofficial national anthem
  9. Everyone in your family has pictures from funerals
  10. You are so proud of every Estonian that you correct foreigners who say that the population is 1 million, not 1.3 million as it actually is
  11. You know the moves to ‘kaerajaan’
  12. ‘Ühesõnaga’ means that a really long explanation is coming
  13. A mention of a town with a population of a million or more causes you to panic slightly
  14. The phrase ‘go south, get some sun’ can feasibly mean Latvia or Lithuania. The phrase ‘go north’ is semantically null
  15. It’s been years since you’ve seen your paper passport and paper bus pass
  16. And weeks since you’ve seen cash money.
  17. And you barely remember that there are other forms of payment except electronic ones.
  18. When you come to a city that has a subway, you are prepared to spend a day just riding it.
  19. You presume that all other countries also have ubiquitous Internet access.
  20. Four-digit bus route numbers cause your brain to shut down.
  21. You feel that the University of Tartu is among the top 5 best/largest/oldest universities in the world, and if you’ve graduated from it, all paths in life are open for you.
  22. Swimming in +18C water is a perfectly normal summer activity for you.
  23. Although when summer does come around, you tend to be working that day.
  24. You will die before finding out if anyone actually does buy all those black&white hand-knit sweaters in the Old Town.
  25. You can name from memory all the really big musical acts that have performed in Estonia.
  26. Walking down Viru street, you can accurately name all the cruise ships in Tallinn harbour on that day.
  27. You know the names of all three black people living in Estonia.
  28. You remember the 1-kroon bill and the 5-sent coin.
  29. A person that speaks three languages isn’t the slightest bit impressive.
  30. Your biological clock senses with perfect accuracy the 15 minutes since you’ve parked your car in the center of town.
  31. You have already been to Olde Hansa.
  32. You know what the EURIBOR rate is right now.
  33. If it takes more than 10 minutes to drive somewhere within the city, you are mildly annoyed because it is too far.
  34. You are beginning to have a glimmer of hope for ever learning how to correctly pronounce Jüriöö Ülestõus.
  35. Your doctor prescribes a visit to a tanning salon.
  36. You take it as inevitable that you will need to go abroad for some things: clothes, footwear, books, theme parks…
  37. First-graders with mobile phones no longer surprise you.
  38. People who type slowly and carefully using only their index fingers are subconsciously considered to be foreigners.
  39. The most difficult subjects you learned at school were Estonian history, Estonian geography and Estonian literature. And Russian.
  40. You can speak with pride of Estonia’s highest mountain.
  41. Buildings taller than 20 floors are sightseeing items where you bring visitors.
  42. You are beginning to find Eino Baskin’s jokes funny.
  43. On June 23rd, you feel the irresistible urge to drink beer and eat barbeque meat.
  44. When you hear ‘Kristina’, you think of Shmigun, not Aguilera.
  45. Every year you believe, deep in your heart, that Estonia will once again win the Eurovision Song Contest.
  46. Potato to you is the same as rice to a Japanese.
Link eesti keele tekkimise kohta on kah päris irooniline.
14 käände juttu kasutatakse mulje avaldamiseks vist küll, või mis :P
