I quite enjoy Henning Wehn, especially when he appears on typically British things like (cats) Countdown or radio 4 shows like Just a Minute and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue

I think most English and Americans would be surprised to learn that large parts of Europe view Germans as uncultured and a bit trash. They dress poorly, can't cook and would sell their mother for some quick cash. Austrians are just Germans except fatter and with a diaper fetish.
But is this the average experience? Everyday meal? I think not. Mediterraneans have good everyday meals rest of Europe only for sundays. Tomatoes vs cabbage&potato.
I'd like to throw the brits into the mix.
God please tag this nsfl. Have you even tried Bavarian food? At least Poland has good bakeries

What are we doing here? Is country bashing funny again?
We Europeans always bash our neighbors. We're like brothers, that always fight but at the end of the day would stand in for another.
I'd kiss those silly frenchmen, that I keep on bashing, on the lips long before I'd even consider giving a yankee a hug.
Was it ever not fun?
Lighten up a little

I’ve heard it claimed German humour differs from English humour due to the grammar of the German language making it harder to hide the punchline, and so largely eliminating a lot of wordplay. The humour that remains is either cerebral (conceptual satire and such) or lowbrow slapstick.

And the joke is someone from the other famously gay country is mocking us for being gay
People who genuinely think Germans cannot be funny should check out Otto Waalkes.
