  1. Ein unbedachtes Wort, und schon ist es passiert. Statt im Boden zu versinken, lässt sich ein peinliches Fettnäpfchen mit etwas Geschick überspielen. Souveränität und eine Prise Humor helfen dabei, die Situation schnell wieder zu entspannen.#alltagstipps #kommunikation #peinlich #fauxpas #selbstbewusstsein #socialskills #gutzuwissen

  2. So the #USAnians sent a "special envoy" to Greenland.

    This is a #diplomatic faux pas to start with - #Greenland is an autonomous division of the #Danish kingdom, and so all diplomatic actions should (at least to start) be done by approaching Denmark, through the USA ambassador to Denmark. Bypassing that is Not Done. Extremely rude. Like, "drop your trousers and shit on the floor in front of the queen" #rude.

    So that's bad enough.

    But the *reason* for the envoy is to try to convince Greenland to #separate from #Denmark, and join the #USA. i.e. it's just another extension of the "We'll take Greenland" #bullshit the #insane #orange mental-defect-in-diapers was pushing a while back. This is, from a diplomatic standpoint, unspeakably rude. Unimaginably so. Simply unfathomable, except for the fact that the USA *elected* that #fascist #asshole to behave this way.

    So the normal diplomatic response would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA #ambassador, and ask him for an explanation, and the ambassador would be expected to provide an #apology to some degree.

    But given Trump's penchant for appointing his kind of c*cksuckers as ambassadors, and zero respect for any kind of #behavioural standards, the appropriate response here would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA ambassador, and then #stab him in the #face.

  3. One of the shittiest things in #society is how bad #cigarette #smokers smell and how it's inappropriate to not tolerate it. Like it's a #fauxpas to tell my friend that he smells like rotten cigarettes are pouring out of his body when we're in a 2-seater car together. Cigarette smokers are nose blind to how disgusting them smell, but it's extremely noticeable. I hate when a smoker holds something of mine and puts it in their pocket, and my stuff winds up smelling like cigarettes for a day later.
