Arusaadavalt on mul täna laisklemise ja netis surfamise päev. Aga kuidas muidu leida igasugu tore-naljakaid asju? Jätkuks kunagi avaldatud eestluse testile leidsin Ravelry eestlaste foorumist veel valusaid väiteid.
You know that you are from Estonia, when…
- Verivorst tastes great (at least once a year at Christmas time)
- You want truth and justice (tõde ja õigus) to rule the world
- You think that the combination blue-black-white is cheerful
- You know that love for 3 oranges is not a weird sex thing and the phrase ‘x 6 me’ makes absolutely sense
- For you it is totally normal to eat food gone sour (hapupiim, hapukurk, hapukapsas, hapukoor)
- A language should have at least 14 cases
- You know the moves to the song ‘Põdra maja’
- You consider ‘Õllepruulija’ an unofficial national anthem

- You are so proud of every Estonian that you correct foreigners who say that the population is 1 million, not 1.3 million as it actually is
- You know the moves to ‘kaerajaan’
- ‘Ühesõnaga’ means that a really long explanation is coming
- A mention of a town with a population of a million or more causes you to panic slightly
- The phrase ‘go south, get some sun’ can feasibly mean Latvia or Lithuania. The phrase ‘go north’ is semantically null
- It’s been years since you’ve seen your paper passport and paper bus pass
- And weeks since you’ve seen cash money.

- You presume that all other countries also have ubiquitous Internet access.
- Four-digit bus route numbers cause your brain to shut down.
- You feel that the University of Tartu is among the top 5 best/largest/oldest universities in the world, and if you’ve graduated from it, all paths in life are open for you.
- Swimming in +18C water is a perfectly normal summer activity for you.
- Although when summer does come around, you tend to be working that day.
- You will die before finding out if anyone actually does buy all those black&white hand-knit sweaters in the Old Town.
- You can name from memory all the really big musical acts that have performed in Estonia.

- You remember the 1-kroon bill and the 5-sent coin.
- A person that speaks three languages isn’t the slightest bit impressive.
- Your biological clock senses with perfect accuracy the 15 minutes since you’ve parked your car in the center of town.
- You have already been to Olde Hansa.
- You know what the EURIBOR rate is right now.
- If it takes more than 10 minutes to drive somewhere within the city, you are mildly annoyed because it is too far.
- You are beginning to have a glimmer of hope for ever learning how to correctly pronounce Jüriöö Ülestõus.
- Your doctor prescribes a visit to a tanning salon.
- You take it as inevitable that you will need to go abroad for some things: clothes, footwear, books, theme parks…
- First-graders with mobile phones no longer surprise you.
- People who type slowly and carefully using only their index fingers are subconsciously considered to be foreigners.
- The most difficult subjects you learned at school were Estonian history, Estonian geography and Estonian literature. And Russian.
- You can speak with pride of Estonia’s highest mountain.

- You are beginning to find Eino Baskin’s jokes funny.
- On June 23rd, you feel the irresistible urge to drink beer and eat barbeque meat.

- Potato to you is the same as rice to a Japanese.
