ALBERT EINSTEIN said that ''the common sense is the sum of the prejudices acquired
until the age 18''.
We did a small survey on Facebook asking our friends to continue the sentence: "Romanians are..."
The answers didn't surprise us at all, being, as expected, negative. They said Romanians are:
stupid, hypocritical, indifferent, whiny, disgruntled losers, hysterical, aggressive, uneducated, stressed, rude, racists. These are some of negative characteristics.
On the positive side, Romanians are optimistic, funny, resourceful, fun, beautiful, ingenious, revelers and have sense of humor.
...We do not know whether "drunk" is said with love or not. :)
It's been said that the Romanians are indifferent, with a strong inferiority complex, inconsistent, eager to go anywhere, poets.
