This time they gonna have online Art schools where anyone who can pay fees can secure admission. No more jilted art students causing world wars.

Imagine if people made a Trump joke whenever New York City came up in conversation.

When talking to foreigners and someone mentions USA, it's about 50/50 I get a trump joke or a fat joke. I don't think HN is the place for it, but stereotyping countries is pretty common.

It should be trivial to combine them into one for a 100% score.

The throwaway's comment has been flagged. Who was he joking about? Mozart? Freud? Arnie?

You can enable [Show Dead] in your profile preferences and see for yourself.

It was the usual no effort reference to a failed Austrian artist who later led Germany.

Wow. Didn't know he was a failed artist.

To confirm, and also to check if big G's AI could infer it, I searched for:

a failed Austrian artist who later led Germany

Worked.

Yeah, I could tell. I was playing dumb while pointing out some good Austrians.

Didn't know about [Show Dead] though, thanks for the tip!

Take the opportunity and interest to read up on the history of WW2. It is a riveting read.

Pardon my missing the playing dumb :/ Glad the tip was appreciated.

Still, hashtag NotAllAustrians: Russell Crowe, John Clarke, Jacinda Ardern, Keith Urban, Jane Campion, the Finn brothers et al. all raised the bar.

Meh. Your joke here, like a kangaroo, has too many leaps. None of these were even born on the West Island.

I'm in Brazil and that happens often

So uh... wonderful women, good social skills, awesome parties... those are just true :)

Yes, just imagine if trump was brought up often no matter the subject.... I can't imagine what point you think you're making.

tbf Trump is at least somewhat relevant to whether the US is a good place to live right now. It's more like inserting a Charles Manson joke when someone says why they like California...
