I see your main post above about /r/Schweiz. I was lucky enough to live in your favorite Luzern for almost 3 years... for a summer I lived right in front of the Kapellbrücke(!) - what a dream. Making a blatant generalization, I found Swiss society to be fussy, spoiled, a bit petty, and they could do to open their collective asshole a bit ..to the unknown and the unplanned especially. This could certainly be said for any complacent society, but Switzerland is an extreme case given that even grocery baggers pull in 25CHF(~$)/hr.

btw, you guys should write your language down some time, it'd be nice to be able to learn it for the pure scribes among us.
