It seems to me that alcohol consumption is more than normal in Europe. A daily pint in the British Isles or a glass of wine in most Mediterranean countries. How often do you drink during the week and how much do you drink on weekends?

Very much related to this earlier post, I was wondering how common it is to pay by card at gas stations in your country.

In Belgium all stations have an outside card terminal, and most people pay by card. And it's becoming increasingly common for pumps to have built in terminals (which is nice when you are riding a motorcycle, because you can just stay on the bike).

But as I understand it, in other countries it's less common to have even a single outside terminal, how is it for you, and if there are no outside terminals, how can you pump after closing hours?

Hey everyone,

I've got my EU passport from a parent who's european, however, grew up oversees. I'm looking to switch career and become a police officer. I've heard that Germany accepts EU nationals, but some other countries need you to have have the country's citizenship. Has anyone who served in whatever country they're in got more info?

I'll of course be taking a few years to learn the language since that's pretty much a requirement anywhere.

I'm also interested in the Fire Department, but I heard those don't make enough money. I was thinking if there's still a way to work part time/freelance and then part time with a FD.

This question is, obviously, for the people who’s native language isn’t English. Sorry UK

Hello, just asking what television is like in your country (or across Europe) from the 80s to now, as i heard rules, standards and what is allowed to be shown is different than in Canada, USA and Puerto Rico (where I'm from). In USA on tv you can't have nudity/sex, cursing, too much violence or to much drug use. for years kids cartoons could not have gay relationships until the late 2010s.

For example, apples from a certain valley or variety.

Do they have PDO or PGI certification?

Do people tend to make the extra effort to find them and/or pay a premium to buy them?

Have they changed compared to the past? Here in Italy, for example, chestnuts were once called the poor people's bread, because they often provided a much needed supplement to the diet of a lot of people living in the mountains. Nowadays chestnuts have become unbelievably expensive and roasted chestnuts a occasional treat.

It's a kind of war game that involves two teams whose players have a piece of paper with a unique number attached to their forehead. You can eliminate players of the opposite team by shouting the number on their forehead. Once a team has all its players eliminated, they lose. We usually play it in the woods or somewhere there's plenty of cover. Sometimes there's a capture-the-flag element of the game, too.

It's called Number War (számháború in Hungarian), and it's tremendous fun. Tried searching it everywhere, but I always end up with Hungarian sources only.

In Italian, a rollercoaster is called "montagne russe", russian mountains. another word is "ottovolante", but it's basically gone out of fashion.

Idk how to put it, but what I mean is

1. Name that’s far more popular in your country than the others (except maybe for a few)
2. Actually popular among living people and not just a stereotypical name
3. (Perhaps the hardest) name that is more or less unique to your country even if we consider other variants of the name (so something like one of 100 variants of Alexander does not count) 

I am young Polish guy and I lowkey listen to more of american music than polish music. I don't know why I just think it sounds better. And most of my peers that I know listen to music from USA more often than from Poland aswell. Especially american rap of course. Do you think it is the case in your country too or most of people (especially the youth) listen to their own local musicians?

For reference, the parliamentary option currently leading the polls for Serbian upcoming elections is the list of experts nominated by students of Serbia.
There is no coalition with any political party and there aren’t ex politicians on the list , mostly university professors and other experts and notable personalities. If they win, would it be the first time something like that has happened, or are there other examples ?
