SPAM::Разница в восприятии

Спасибо lesatТане М. за этот текст - попытку проанализировать разницу между Western World and Eastern World (сравниваются города в восточной Европе и центральные города России/Украины.)

  WESTERN EUROPE EASTERN EUROPE [livejournal.com profile] towndwarf´s opinion
(mostly about western Europe)
  Structure Chaos  
Driving roadsexcellentholes, possible islands of grass in the middle Agree
Time Schedule chaos Depends. Mostly it’s correct
Activity for after work Bar Walk, park, house work, help friends, projects of any kind Europe:
Bar, walk, guests, house work, hobbies.
Activity for weekend Bar Plant potatoes/dig potatoes; visit relatives; hitchhike; botanic garden for summer; snow fights for winter; bajdarki; parachuting; mountain biking; picnic; … Europe:
mountain biking; picnics; shopping, entertainment parks, driving to other cities (but there’re countries where moving out of the city shows that you´re not reliable)
Vacations Go abroad, mostly sea side or where your interest lies (diving, skiing, cycling etc) Go to local sea side/local mountains or country side to visit grand parents, older generation: plant/dig potatoes Europe: I saw some MIX of the items.
/And digging potatoes isn´t such fun/
Work 9 to 5 9 to unlimited Europe: depends on country.
Casual conversation weather Experience, feelings Weather, experience, feelings.
Conversation with friends Their house, last vacations, next vacations, job, babies (if applicable). THIS IS ALL!! Meaning of life, searching for advice, support, super deep trust, vision for the future, values, passions ‘meaning of life and all the stuff’ is ONLY between REALLY close friends in Russia/Ukraine.
The issue of jealosy is REALLY serious concern there.
Topics for art Raising current specific issues : i.e. loosing of personality in globalizing world; self realization of wheel-chaired Did not have access to see. Assumption: artists have no money/time for art. OR, there is no demand for art. style='color: black'> Don’t know.
Art Classical, modern, ultra modern, pop art. Photo exhibitions, paintings. Pop stars concerts, modern dance shows. Archaic religious paintings. Classical ballet. Partially right
retirement Predicted, pension, travel chaos Right
clothing Polo, La Costa, Benetton etc. Local market :-) Yes
Drink Beer Strong drinks 50/50
Drink on the street/park/… Illegal Yes, please J Right
Disappointment of the day Did not sort the garbage for recycling No money for breakfast tomorrow  
Charity Yes, a lot. People members of funds, charity events. Are they giving out free stuff? Where?? Right
Eating/drinking out 4 nice places on each corner Either not nice or too expensive Right
Aspirations Job. To buy a house. To go no vacations. Meaning of life. Friendship. Future of the country. How can I make a difference. Partially right
Sport 2-3 times a week everybody. 1ce a month :-), the most dedicated people Yes
Cycle pads everywhere What do you mean? Yes
Debit/credit cards everywhere What do you mean? Yes
Animals Zoo only Forest How many people going to forests??
Vegetables/fruits Green houses, chemically impacted. No taste. All year round. Juicy, real, from the real garden, only in appropriate season. Yes but you can easily obtain chemically unimpacted vegetables/fruits. And the MOST important: You CAN affort it even in winter.
I think in another way OK. (as if I give a damn) NO! lets discuss it! "No, let´s discuss it" and next some of uss will find a way to a dentist or emergency room.
Something went wrong No worries. We do better next time. OH my god! OH my god! OH my god!!!  
No, I am not fine Oh really?? That’s too bad… but its gonna be fine!!! My god! What happened, how may I help?? About helping – I’m not so sure.
With unknown people Friendly, smiling, discussing weather Fight possible, rude  words possible I prefer ‘weather’ conversations.
With well known people Friendly, smiling, discussing weather Deep conversations, expressing attitude to personal values. Depends on country.
Life Predictable unpredictable That’s right
Day-to-day Boring, same, did I mention bar? Surprising, fight for the future, friends It depends on people.
Beer? Have to check my schedule for next week Yes, now!!! 50/50
Faces same Telling you his life story 50/50
country Developed. Successful. Boring. Rich. Juicy, authentic, unique, rich in traditions, full of hopes. Poor. dunno

Пожалуйста выскажите ч-то вы думаете. /у меня сейчас нет времени написать свои мысли/
Я через 10 мин уезжаю в Донецк, когда у меня будет интернет - не знаю.
