Mother of God, is that a fine meme format.

Be the meme-starter you wish to see in the Fediverse!
Actually kinda needed that punch in the arm. Thanks, bud, though I doubt my content will be nearly as dank as some of your Roman contributions. I shall try!
“local Youtuber cracks sea geode”

The Dutch and the French both have many Belgian jokes (all along the lines that Belgians are dumb), but the funny thing is that many of the jokes actually originate from Belgium itself. They are jokes by the Flemish and Walloons making fun of each other that are then generalized to Belgians as a whole by the Dutch and French.
We still hold a bit of a grudge against them for having let the Germans pass without saying anything during WWII and also because they claim to have invented fries. We tease them but we still like them.
This is like when we Danes tell jokes about Swedes and Norwegians, I assume.
Like this: How many Norwegians to change a light bulb in the ceiling?
Answer
Three; one to hold the lightbulb and two to carry them while going in circles.
This is exactly the same with the Dutch and the Belgians.
Belgian: “One loaf of bread please”.
Baker: “White or brown bread?”
Belgian: “Doesn’t matter, it’s for a blind person”.
As a Virginian, we tell West Virginian and Kentuckian jokes. How many west virginians to change a lightbulb?
!Whole family, one to hold the bulb, the rest to turn the shack!<
How many Kentuckian does it does tocl change a lightbulb?
! I’m not sure, you’d have to convince them it isn’t magic first!<
Raised in Maryland, same kinds of jokes we tell about West Virginia, lmao.
A West Virginian boy got mad at a Marylander, so he threw a stick of dynamite at the Maryland boy. The Marylander picked it up, lit it, and threw it back.
Ha! Nice! Take that, Wear Virginia! Lmao
We had others, but most of them revolve around how, ahem, close their families are. Lol
FYI, spoilers don’t work like Reddit (or at least not on my web client.) Try doing it the way Limfjorden did:
::: spoiler Answer Three; one to hold the lightbulb and two to carry them while going in circles. :::The ones using colons don’t work on my client, but the built in ones using the > and ! do. I’m on eternity
Strange. I think colons are the official way (as I’m just on default web lemm.ee,) so that might be something to contact your client’s devs with.
Or the Bavarians tell about Austrians.
Lightbulb jokes are universal, only the target changes. The Bavarians have some long-form jokes (“Two Austrians go on vacation to the Sahara…”) that I’d never heard before going to Germany.
In case anyone is wondering, the joke (actually) goes:
Two Bavarians go on vacation to the Sahara and quickly find themselves bored. Being German, they decide to do something constructive, and decide to build a bridge from whatever scrap wood they can find. Two weeks pass in happy industry, but as they’re flying home, the first slaps his head and says, “We have to go back!” “Why,” asks the second. “Because we signed our names on it, and if anyone finds we built a bridge in the desert, we’ll never hear the end of it!” says the first.
So they switch planes and head back. As they near the bridge, the first says: “Stay here, and I’ll go check the coast is clear,” and he heads off over the dunes. A while later, he returns, crestfallen. “We are undone,” he cries, “a couple of Austrians found our bridge already!” “What are they doing,” asks the second. The first answers:
“Fishing off it.”How many Germans does it take to change a light bulb?

I know it’s not funny, but it is efficient.
Hey, a Dane! Jag skylle hag en kamelåså?
Is that a new format I see? Can I invest in this?
All I can see in the mine is the head of a gopher screening before being hit.
I bet it’s the French taking the piss out of the Belgians again.
Hey now, we Dutchies love taking the piss out of Belgians just as much :)
In the photo right after this you get to see the giant gold coin that pops out of it.
