I thought it was cute, anyway. I hope nobody has posted it. I did a quick lookup.
Forgot to mention it’s a Flash page.
Normally they exaggerate in things like that but I can say for the driving and parking IT’S ALL TRUE. I’ve never seen cars wander all the hell over the road like in Italy–not changing lanes, just meandering off to the shoulder, into your lane, back again… Traffic lights and signs are suggestions only. Motorcyclists can do whatever the hell they want–we followed one for a mile until we realized we were driving the wrong way down a one-way street.
Hehe, funny stuff 
I liked the part with the pedestrian.
There’s also these:

I recommend “Yes and No”
yeah very funny, nothing like letting the truth get in the way of a good stereotype.
Hell, why even let the stereotype get in the way, just make up lots of shit that’s neither true or steroetypically italian.
:rolleyes:
That’s self-inflicted stereotype. It gets a pass. There’s even some form of pride to it.
Made-up stereotypes are the funniest. Don’t you like South Park?
Yes I do.
Just wondered who done it as many of the things in it equally apply to the French.
Just thought it was bit stupid, Italy v’s EU when Italians are no different.
Should have been Belgium v’s Italy - that’d work.
Well, I liked it. I think most Americans fit the EU stereotype too–we’ve been shamed into behaving like sweet kindergarten children abroad for years now.
Molto divertente! = Very funny!
If anyone is ever in Paris then I recommend watching the traffic at the roundabout (rotary) that is around the Arc de Triomph, scary scary driving goes on there.
Bruno Bozzeto. His name is the first thing that appears when you watch the animation. Since the name looks Italian and texts are written in italian and english, I assume he’s Italian.
I don’t know why, but something about the Bozetto cartoons, particularly “Olympics,” reminds me of the old Friz Freleng Pink Panther shorts. It’s not just the slapstick, it’s pacing, the use of sound, the lack of dialogue - but many cartoons share all this. Maybe it’s just me.
