  1. Guy cut the spaghetti; there have *got* to be consequences; we live in a society!

  2. Typical Italian ritual to pay homage to the gods in the hope of finding a job

  3. me trying to explain that I’m not that kind of european when ameritards accuse me of doing blackface

  4. Not so different from Midtsommer, just less flower themed.

  5. This is amazing. Those guys with the hammers are going hard. I don’t know what I’m looking at.

  6. I thought we had banned the worship of Cernunnos about 2000 years ago

  7. Is this northern italy? Or is that celebrated all over italy?

    The guy with the Horns rlly resembles our Krampus tradition, which besides austria is also practiced in northern italy/South Tyrol aswell if i remember correctly (which funnily is ex austria aswell and people still speak german in many parts there )

    Ps.: im not a patriot who demands Südtirol and i dont care about the Südtirol Austria/Italy discussion and hope to not get into that with that little comment haha

    Edit: Nvm he actually doesnt look like krampus but just has fur and Horns bound to his body

  8. To be fair I’ve seen similar things in German Mittelaltermarkts.

  9. Why do i have the feeling its a tradition closely related to our villages bordering Spain. Lets beat the demons with sticks, lets use cow bells to make noise, lets make ugly masks to scare the demons. We call them by many names chocalheiros, caretos or farandulos… But if @OP does not recognize this then I guess Carantoñas is after all a non spanish tradition.

  10. I somehow highly doubt that in Galicia you don’t have Celtic pagan traditions still around. Based Luigi or Luigi-Hans.

  11. Soyjak Mediterranean island: beating hides with clubs like neanderthals

    Chad North Sea island: beating women with cow horns like sophisticated gentlemen

    Seriously though, what‘s wrong with island people?!

  12. I wanna see americans having a meltdown over their face paint

  13. what the hell I’m sardinian and of course I know mamuthones but seeing them beating the shit out of each other is new to me

  14. Seems like normal winter solstice celebration. Just less snow.

  15. South European parents when their child is still living at home at 40 years old

  16. I have honestly no idea why they are hitting the dude with a mace

  17. If you don’t have some krampus variation in your country you don’t belong to 2weu4u

  18. 1. elaborate way to clean your rug

    2. People doing a happy Dance rug is Clean
