bravo you do well … remember to write the Italians equals spaghetti so much and the only thing you know…
To put it this way. I am glad that Norway is not a participating part of the Euro 2024 tournament. The norwegian team would for sure only be used as a real prügelknabe for the other nations. Sorry to say it. Just an honest view. 
These sensitivities in this forum are getting worse and worse. One increasingly get the impression that some people here are just waiting to reproach another member for using incorrect language. A tip: Just pull the stick out of your backside and don’t take everything so seriously. There is so much suffering in the world, is it really necessary to argue over such trivialities as “spaghetti” and “potatoes”? 
By the way: I LOVE SPAGHETTI

Unfortunately, I’m not familiar with the Norwegian soccer team. So I can’t say anything about it. 
That I understand fully. Still it is a legitimate and true view of point. And I am fond of Spaghetti aswell. I am saying that even though I am norwegian.
I don’t do it on purpose but I’m tired as an Italian always hearing the same phrases and I’m not just talking about this forum but in general… Italian equals spaghetti and other bulls__t like that…

I don’t take such stereotypes or clichés seriously at all, and certainly not personally. It seems to be the opposite with you. So out of respect, I will refrain from using this metaphor in future.

I’m not a person who can tell you how to use your language…you can do whatever you want, I just responded to a classic phrase like Italian equals spaghetti…(I don’t want you to think I have it with you)…

I am quite familiar with them, but it is a harshly true point that they have nothing to do in such a tournament like this. The same thing would have applied even if they would have been able to qualify. Harshly said, but just a fact.
that’s the same for me…
Everyone outside the Netherlands thinks that we all wear clogs and have a bicycle with a trailer coupling

I didn’t even know that. My interest in soccer started in 1990 with the World Cup. But the 2:1 in 1988 explains a lot, of course.
