20, 23, 27 for the ask meme :)

20. Which sport is The Sport in your country?

Calcio (soccer, football) is definitely The Sport! There are
countless in-depth TV programs, every broadcast news has at least two or three
footages/stories every day about some game, some coach, some player in an
endless circle of gossip and actual game-centered news. I don’t like it so it’s
pretty overwhelming, but I guess if you’re a fan it’s heaven, lol. Also, people
get pretty crazy about it, both in good and bad ways. Like, during the main
games there is basically full armed police outside and inside the stadiums, and
some fans are so involved that they throw stuff on the playing field, like
various objects or smoke bombs, like guerrilla-style. Awful. Luckily it’s not always
and everywhere, but still. Soccer fans (we call these crazy ones “ultràs”) need
to chill, lmao.

23. Which alcoholic beverage is the favoured one in your
country?

Mh, I guess beer and wine are the most favoured, I don’t
know which one wins between the two. Maybe wine though? (I’m not really good on
the subject since I only occasionally drink lol, and I prefer beer over wine).

27. Favourite national celebrity?

Ughh I don’t know if I have one?? There are a few I like,
like Tiziano Ferro for example (a singer), Luca Ward (I love his voice, he’s an
actor and a voice actor as well and ughh his voice does things to me),
Alessandro Preziosi, Luca Argentero (more actors), Cristina D’Avena (she used
to sing the opening songs of every single anime I watched as a kid, so she’s
basically the 85% of my childhood), and like a bunch of comedians (we have a
lot of them, we try to laugh the tragedies off lol).

{ hi, i’m not from the US asks game }

Ah, the Italians…. I’ll take their gun control advice just like I loved their choice of friends in WW2.

Ah, the Americans… ever the ignorants who know jack shit about history and have no idea that Mussolini was, in fact, a dictator, and that he proclaimed himself Prime Minister in 1922.

We didn’t vote a fascist to rule our country, contrary to what your peeps did in November 2016.
As we don’t keep native Americans still confined in Indian reservations.
As we don’t have sociopaths committing mass murderers in schools.
As we don’t have a problem with police brutality because here white police men don’t feel entitled to shoot on black people just because they’re, well, poc.
As we didn’t cause the most dramatic financial collapse both of the XX and the XXI century, and consequently dragged the rest of the world with us.

Darling, I have a degree in Political Science and International Relations. In addition to that, I actually studied history, not only the events related to my country, when I was in school, so I can pretty much roast you at this.
Come back to me after you have looked through some books and actually learnt something.
Have a good day!
