Talking to a Serb: ok, imagine a pljeskavica…
I’m listening
Why?
Because
Fair enough
How do you feel about speaking the same language as Croatians?
No we’re too smart to be from there
neither group is from there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_migrations_to_the_Balkans
:D MIGRANTS!
What’s with the jokes about big Serbian dudes eating Albanians
Yum
does serbia have good ice cream
Yes
What Serbian food or media should I try? Or at least know about? I feel very unaware of the culture - the closest I came was watching The Ark which was filmed there.
Honestly pljeskavica’s (basically burgers in USAsian) are one of our most iconic food here. Though stuff like ćevapi are more on the Bosnian side of things but is good too. For media I think some ex-Yu movies are pretty good like: Maratonci Trče Počasni Krug, Ko To Tamo Peva, Varljivo Leto '68, Balkanski Špijun and some movies from the Žikina Dinastija series.
Also for some reason movies like Valter Brani Sarajevo is very popular in China. Not to mention the movie Most is one of Xi Jiping’s favorite films lol.
Pretty Village, Pretty Flame is another one.
Where is Balkan?
Right to the boot
So how often do you shove glass bottles up your butt?
Openness to male sex toys could have saved yugoslavia smh
We got s*x shops late smh smh
What’s the relationship with Poland? I always got along with the Serbian diaspora in the midwest US, but how does do they get along in the motherland?
Non-existent and very mixed, mostly not getting along well.
What do you think about the word Serbia?
Could be better.
How’s it going, mate?
Honestly, I had better days. Thanks for asking though.
Relatable, feeling low too. :meow-hug:
Hope you feel better soon mate
Do you have any projects in mind? I find that one of the things that keep me actually excited about life is engaging in projects. Building something out of wood, electronics, programming… Whatever.
How do you feel about that stuff?
Well I’m still learning ToonBoom Harmony, mostly 2D rigging stuff since I’m more of a self taught frame by frame animation type of guy. Including learning Python again. I’m just in general trying to improve my skills as much as I can since I constantly feel like I’m the most incompetent mf lol.
I did make some shorts and some artworks and designs so I hope that’s good enough. Also I’m trying to touch grass more.
Just It feels weird because the college and school blockades are still going (5 months now) and I think it’s starting to take a toll a bit on me is all.
Hey, that sounds dope, the animation thing. Just try and enjoy the process, don’t stress about competence (I know, easier said than done, I’m in the same boat).
Yeah, big stuff like that takes a tall. Lately I feel extra doomer, seeing the “left wing” in Spain supporting the war budget of the EU (e.g. Gabriel Rufián in Spanish congress talking about "the left also means security and order)
But hey, we’ll manage. Best of luck to you, mate.
