One of the many cultural misunderstandings...

Three Italians at dinner with their girlfriends…

One of the girlfriends does not talk for hours, she usually is not talkative anyway…
One Italian, with a smile in his face, jokes:
“Hey, you talked so much, please shut up”

Another girl replies:
“That is so rude”

The other two Italians choke in laughter…

Come on…
What is rude?
Being on a table, not saying anything, or having a friendly joke about that…

And then,
He is a bloody Italian,
Those fucks can’t even shut up when they sleep…

p.s.: Now some are going to think, “you should pay respect for that culture of silence” etc etc… Does that culture pay me any tolerance or understanding for my friendly, respectful actions except “Oh it’s a different culture, how interesting”.... end of story.
