    This isn’t nearly subtle enough to be funny. Just call a doner a gyro and call a gyro a doner.

      When with Turks don’t forget to refer to baklava as your favorite greek desert.

    If you want to double that emotional damage for Greece, you could call them the Turkish Republic of South Macedonia

    And once they are staring daggers at you, be sure to follow up with calling them ‘typical over-emotional southerners without self control’.

    Perfect way to make new friends /s

    I do similar here. I call Puerto Ricans, Cuban; Cubans, Mexican; and Mexicans, Puerto Rican.

    They fucking hate it. I also live an hour away from Miami, so I get to do it all the time :D

    It’s mostly friends that I fuck with that way, but I do it to strangers from time to time too.

        Oh I assure you, most of them are so racist towards one another that it usually pisses them off. But I don’t mind pissing off racists.

    Why would you antagonize anyone who lives where there’s such delicious food? That’s how you don’t get invited to the cookout.
