A comedian from my country once made a song called "You(She) are any words" where the song is the title repeated till the end to prove that anything can become famous.
In Northern Ireland we call deep fried doughnuts Gravy Rings. And we still have lemonade men who deliver lemonade to your house in a van, of which we have normal white lemonade and special Northern Irish brown lenonade. Also, our police all carry guns unlike in the rest of the UK. One of our favourite foods is called fadge.
People here will ask "hows it going" as a greeting, to which the only expected response is "hows it going", if you actually answer they look at you weird
Unless it is colder than -20, toddlers should nap outside.
They are also left in their trolleys outside in the street while you're having lunch in the coffee shop.
The link did not work for me, so I have to do something I never thought I will have to do in this thread.

The Ruokolahti lion was a phenomenon that included several lion sightings in midsummer 1992 in the Ruokolahti and Imatra regions, which received great attention from the media, the public and officials.
The first sighting of the lion was made on 23 June by a forestry foreman stationed in Ruokolahti. The existence of the animal was officially confirmed when a large carnivore researcher found tracks of a non-Finnish big cat in the area four days later. Three ministries ordered the animal to be removed from Finnish nature, but the hunt soon ended when no further reliable sightings of the animal were received. Reports of the lion also came from elsewhere in Finland, especially from the Kristiinankaupunki region, where the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry assumed there was another big cat. According to the media, the lion was also seen in Karstula, Iiss and Hyrynsalmi.
Ruokolahti marketed its municipality with a lion between 1992 and 2012.

I will start.
My country is called the mother of the world.
In my country, you don't ask where should I put this?
Also when you want to degrade, insult or like offend a person hardly you tell him "your mother pussy".
A famous rapper from my country once made a song that he does not have a Facebook account.
