So I do the whole tracksuit thng, but if I am to adopt a squat I need to know - can I romanian be a Gopnik? The culture is pretty slavic but it is weird because people consider it like a latin country when it really isn't. I know it isn't very respectable but I know a little romanian and I might as well immerse myself.

It doesn't hurt I can read and Write in the cyrillic alphabet.

alright. thank you,

I think I can start a "gang" war with the other gopniks in my neighborhood my neighborhood is 110% polish so it will be difficult to win. I wonder if some will take offense.

Every culture has their on gopnik. In the USA we call them hoodlums, in Australia they call them bogans. It's really just a term for what that society calls a low class city person.

True, but what Fuckreddit is describing is pretty distinct. That tracksuit wearing slav look.

If you're going to be a Slav, you gotta squat like a slav.

I am not a slav are you fucking porcule i am romanian thats not slavic
but yes thank you

also it is apparently called BOSCHETAR for me (the romanian equicalent but sadly it consists of older people wearing shirts like "Daca sunt sexy este crima, arest eu" "If being sexy is a crime, arrest me" while missing 4 teeth), but that sounds fucked so BOSCHEČšAR (see the T it makes a Ts sound) is better.
