Football Feelings

awww it's nice to see Germany not depressed and actually happy for once

@PotatoOtaku66 at least one germany is smiling almost all the time here....

@Balistare Lol xD

good. ^_^
i took german in middleschool, and ever since then, ive loved it... it bothers me how people keep overlooking the fact that an enormous chunk of human development is because of germany. all those massive artists, scientists, psychologists, musicians, philosophers, teachers, etc.... i like to say that england has the best television, ireland has the best authors, and germany has the best minds.
i cant wait for the stereotype for brother germany to be robust, intellectual, and proud again ^o^

Aww...Its so nice to see Germany being happy!

At first I thought he was growing boobs. Is that odd of me?

@Rosin no .was my first thought too

@Queran same here

Let me tell you this as a german... This just happens for football!

@Lizzl Agreed.

@Lizzl I'm actually happy when germans are proud of thier nation, you guys have a unique history and culture and you should display it more oftenly, the times of ww2 are long gone, nowdays we view germans as friends.

@Andro There is no reason for it. National Pride is just, well, stupid. You are proud of things other people have done and where you have had no participation in whatsoever.
And because I love quotes:
A nation is a society united by a delusion about its ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours. ~William R. Inge
I am not an Athenian or a Greek, I am a citizen of the world. ~Socrates
Borders are scratched across the hearts of men
By strangers with a calm, judicial pen,
And when the borders bleed we watch with dread
The lines of ink across the map turn red.
~Marya Mannes, Subverse: Rhymes for Our Times, 1959

@HUNDmiau I disagree national pride is a positive feeling, it encourages unity and patriotism, and to me there is no greater deed than helping your country and it's people. There is also a quote saying: 'One can never do too much for the benefit of his country'
Not so long ago my country was under threat of occupation and losing it's freedom and everyone did their best to help, even the ones that couldn't go into battle tried to help in some other ways. And when we finally won the war everyone felt proud not just of their achievements but of the whole nation since each one of us did their share of helping to win the war. We all felt like a single team fighting against a much larger enemy and that's why we were so proud when we won, we won together, united. And what is a nation without it's people? We are a key part of our country and our country is a key part of us. Feeling national pride a great feeling especially when harsh times come.

<3 so glad Germany can be proud of itself again

For a moment I thought Germany was spontaneously growing breasts!

@Boz-pot Same here

@Boz-pot

Your avatar's expression fits that perfectly

I love it when Germany can get proud of itself without feeling guilty. So football and Oktoberfest and stuff!
Also lovely to hate them during football, as they are our biggest competence next to Spain...

I feel bad for Germany, with this being the only time where they can show their national pride.
