People Hilariously Explain True Meaning Of Country Flags, And You May Not Like The Result
Stereotype jokes have got to be probably the least creative and tired kind of humor there is, a constant re-hashing of the same old cliches over and again from now until eternity. Italians eat lots of pasta? Check. Germans lack humor? Gotcha. Brazilians and football? Mhm. Oh, the Irish love potatoes do they? I never knew.
Yet still, they remain popular, we as humans apparently love to have our beliefs and categorizations confirmed and they make us happy. The internet has been experimenting with another angle on the theme lately, with people exploring the 'true meaning' behind national flags, and they do allow an element of creativity into proceedings! Scroll down to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

This is so true. The first pizza, made for queen Margharita, was made with topings resembling the Italian flag. General Knowledge out.

This is INCREDIBLY offensive to the memory of the thousands of Northern Italians who fought and lost their lives fighting for the resistance. In my family we lost four brave men who were helping these Italian Partigiani who were hiding and fighting against the Nazis in the Dolomites during WWII. It saddens me greatly that the Northern Italians' struggles during WWII have not been included in the history books here in the west.

What do you think ?
"Hilarious" isn't the word I would use.
I can't believe their clickbait got so bad.
I know right?
Ah. Now they've changed the title. Convenient.
And again. 3 different titles now.
I think even the work 'funny' was used loosely.
How was the old title
TOTALLY AGREE This is TERRIBLE IT IS ABSOLUTLY STERIOTYPICAL and just sees the WORST in everything. You hear all this stuff like 'heres what it actually is', 'heres how they actually look' BUT SERIOUSLY WTF AUSTRALIA for starters i have never had a bear i have never seen a C*NT AND WE have dangerous animals but they actaully DONT BOTHER US. Im sorry but this is ridiculously inaccurate
the gimmick with the missing color got old very quickly or perhaps I'm just pissed there's no Dutch flag (the pink stands for ability to cycle while high)
I agree with you. Having almost everyone have a missing color seemed boring and trite after the first couple.
And that would have actually gotten a chuckle!
Hmm... I don’t know about all of these. Maybe it’s just me, but they seemed just kind of cynical, without to much meaning. Maybe they just weren’t for me, but I wasn’t that big of a fan.
Alia, you probably have a kind and generous heart and you're probably not cynical. We need more people like you. :)
That’s very sweet of you to say, thank you. In reality i’m a dramatic angsty teen, but I’ll take the compliment!
Alia, all teens are so I'm sure you're fine. :D The compliment stands.
Alia, I agree with you, and I also believe that it would be in the interest of BoredPanda to keep a high standard of common decency.
Sorry, I have no idea how this ended up posted twice
that's too much meaning and I mean it to
