- Rich and poor
- Politics
- Nazis and communists
- Sexism
- Alcohol consumption
- Entertainment
- Housing
- Work market
- Insurances
- Celebrities
- Humor
So, feel free to post your prejudice in the comments already!

I must say I'm very curious about this. I have very few preconcieved notions about the life and culture in Estonia. I pretty much only know the things you told me about.
I just thought of one thing that's wierd with the US when it comes to humor. Irony. It just doens't fly with many of the Americans. At least around where I am. They just get confused. And on my part, some of the cheesy humour they have to lighten up their every day situations is just too flat. And I am to honest to fake laugh. So I'm pretty sure I appear like a piece of rock to some of them. My jokes work fine on US scandinavians though.
