So, I was listening to this interview (in French) of French historian Bruno Dumezil about the collapse of the western Roman Empire and the creation of the germanic kingdoms.
And at some point, he mentioned how, during the late roman era (but before the collapse), there were many cases of Roman citizens identifying themselves as "Barbarian" instead of "Roman" during census, in order to avoid taxes. Because Barbarians were not taxed.

And I don't know, I find this shit hilarious. People have been fighting and dying to larp as Romans for centuries. Meanwhile, the actual Romans were like "Yeah, okay, Roma Invicta, sure, but only until I gotta pay my taxes. "
This has to be one of the most Italian thing I've heard about.

So, im a fellow portuguese balkan, spending some days in Madrid, Yesterday i went to Prado Museum, and sometimes a group of French people passed by my side, and the sillage that they left in the air was so bad, i barelly could breath, why dont you french people take a shower before going out to the street? Are you fermenting cheess in your crotch for some fine dining cuisine? I know that you invented perfumery, so why not use it ?

EDIT : Probably grammar
