Cand am vazut reclamele cu (stereo)tipul ala "american" si Rom cu noul ambalaj, m-am interesat sa stiu chiar unde ajung banii care da lume pentru batonul Rom. Cer scuze de greseli.

A Yankee Responds to "The New Rom"
When I saw the commercials with that stereotype "American" and the Rom bar with its new wrapper, I decided to find out just where the money people pay for Rom bars ends up. Sorry for my language mistakes.

  • hey, chill, the commercial was just a joke :) sarcasm, people!!

  • @stefanrosioru Of course, but it wasn't a joke to hundreds of people commenting "Jos americanii!!!" Have you ever been in another country and seen your country's flag in a joke commercial that had hundreds of people cursing Romanians?

  • @badmuthahubbard Yes. I've been abroad for a few months now, and I've heard a lot of discriminatory jokes about Romanians; and I'm sure you know Romanians' status in Europe, the Gypsy stories, and so on. BUT that's a different topic. Yea, and about the people commenting "Jos americanii!!!"; most of these trolls are probably drooling over their keyboards right now so there's nothing to worry about. People are stupid, get over it :) Chill, Romanians don't hate Americans yet!

  • @stefanrosioru I see; then you know better than I do.

    I was in the Pizza Hut here in Bucharest with my wife once, and we helped an older Austrian man order. When he asked where we were from and I said I was American, he looked at me and said, "I've never liked Americans." Not to generalize, that was just one guy, but I can say no Romanian has ever said anything like that to me!

  • it's so funny and weird to watch non-romanians trying to speak romanian

    good progress

  • @llVIU Yeah, I guess it would take some getting used to. I'm quite used to hearing foreigners in my country trying to speak English in all kinds of ways, but there are so few people who have any desire to speak Romanian, so you probably don't hear it much. I would think those who make the effort should be respected for it, but I guess if I were less experienced dealing with foreigners I'd laugh at them too.

  • foarte tare! thumbs up!

  • I've just watched the commercial for the "new rom", it's just so sad (miss the chocolate, btw). thanks for pointing out that it has nothing to do with anything american.

  • A treia parte e o combinatie de romana si engleza. Cind am zis ca a dat de dracu ma refeream la faptul ca "She divorced his ass" He walked away with about 1.5 million dollars in assets. Real estate. Mostly. He felt lonely and helpless, so when a smart Romanian women who also happened to be a lawyer came along he jumped in the bandwagon really quick! They got married ! Si ea l-a curatat exact cum cureti un morcov! L-a lasat in pielea goala si a divortat! Now he's homeless!
  • Prima parte a fost in engleza. A doua este in romaneste!

    Ma scot din pepeni imigrantii din USA care pur si simplu refuza sa invete limba engleza! Si asta o spun din experienta personala!

    Cunosc un roman care a sosit in America in 1975. S-a casatorit cu o

    sirboaica din Banatul Sirbesc ( care era aici de 20 de ani si vorbea engleza

    foarte bine- cu un pic de accent). Totodata ea vorbea si sirbeste si

    romaneste! Asa ca el a decis ca a invata engleza este un efort inutil.

    Pina cind a dat de dracu!

  • I am impressed! Your effort to learn the Romanian language is

    commendable! When I arrived in the USA twenty years ago,

    I did not speak any English at all ! My wife did but very little.

    And my French was as much help “ ca o frectie la un picior de lemn”

    It was very frustrating. But I kept watching TV and reading

    Newspapers and asking my wife: What that means? How you say that?

    But what frustrates me the most are people that SIMPLY REFUSE

    TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE OF THEIR NEW HOME LAND!

  • @badmuthahubbard exactly except I don't laugh at it, just find it interesting (extremly uncommon)
