I’d like to apologise for all my previous comments on here taking the piss out of Finnish people for being poor conversation material. Apparently [I’ve gone about this all wrong](https://youtube.com/shorts/qD4Jwo2zn6A?si=RwylK0-I0ZWu09a7). I should have skipped the small talk and dived straight into the conversation about classical music, vintage cars and birdwatching that they always wanted.
Which reminds me. The whole lab has been trying to find ways of getting our [billionaire sugar daddy](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskEurope/s/BFcdWHLIOB) to open up to us and talk about himself. Unfortunately, he’s, well, how do I put it…not the world’s most socially adept person and getting more than a 3 word answer from him about anything that isn’t directly work-related (and even that can be a struggle) is considered a monumental achievement. Does anyone know how you can ask someone about their hobbies without, well, you know… directly asking them what their hobbies are?
Edit: I should add, for the record, that said billionaire is not from Finland
Who says that Dutch people don’t have a good sense of humour?
I went to a bar last night and asked the barman what beer he recommended.
He replied ‘Go to Belgium’!
