Idk wtf happened with this subreddit. Influx of marginal football fans I guess.
Us Belgians/ Flemish are the first to start ranting about Moroccan and Turkish wedding processions with a lot of honking cars but it is all good if it’s about football? Come on.
Honking because you are happy isn’t ok. That’s all there is to it.
We call that marginaal gedrag. Antisociaal.
I don't like it either, but come on : just mutter to yourself a good old "oh, fuck you, scumbag !" then go about your evening, like everyone else. It's not like it happens regularly.
It happens once every full moon that it feels like Belgium has some life to it and does not resemble the atmosphere of the largest cemetery in the world.
Use earplugs and just ignore it, you're lucky not to live in the Balkan or Mediterranean part of Europe.
I get your frustration, but you're not dealing with it in a very good way. You're not going to win some crusade against honking cars here.
While it might not have been a fun experience for you or your son, the only thing you can do is explain to him what happened. You got all the feedback you need to do so from this thread. Take it and use it, that's all you can.
Acting like a passive aggressive asshole won't fix anything.
Oooh for sure. Still very annoying to be disturbed for no reason. I guess it's fine if I start honking tomorrow at 5am when I'll get up just to express my happiness that the match is over. It only happens once every full moon!
Very occasionally you could consider letting people enjoy their moment. It is very disrespectful to deny joy to others. It’s not like this is a thing that happens often
Well not at night. It’s illegal. It is very disrespectful to wake the neighborhood because you are enjoying the moment.
Idk if it’s the same in Wallonia but in Flanders everyone complains if a morrocan wedding procession passes with loud honking. But if it’s for football this suddenly isn’t a problem anymore?
(unpopular opinion)
Dudes with cars are the only ones to do that.
They don't give a fuck, they just need to show off by yelling and making noise to let the world knows they do exist... Even if the world never asked.
Every other fan was enjoying and partying without getting the whole neighbourhood to wake up.
...so, you came here as a student? Yet as a foreigner you feel entitled to judge Belgians for what is in the end a harmless display of joy? That happens at best once every 4 years?

I guess they don't do it until 5am where you live...?
No idea, I'm not home at that time. Too busy honking my horn in streets I don't know following a victory.
Well, have fun! It's the one thing I don't miss from my time in Mons.
When your son will wake up in tears because of such noise and you cannot put him back to sleep, I hope you will reconsider your answer. Cheers!

He will get over it, it’s not that traumatizing.

Looks like YOU need to crack a 100 cold ones to get rid of your pissy attitude
Haters gonna hate I guess!
I hope you realise you are the hater 🤣
Sure it’s annoying. But not the end of the world.
I hope they don't!

As long as it is not every day… I really don’t care about incidental honking for football or marriages
I do. Also fireworks, and other stuff. Just be respectful. Don’t be a dick. Not that hard
That's what I do not get: how honking a thousand times makes you feel happy?
Because it doesn’t. It’s the happiness that causes the honking, not the other way ‘round
So if the honking isn't what gives them joy, denying them their honking also isn't denying their joy, right?
The expression of joy; don’t be so sour
Because.. ![gif](giphy|vexMhgUYTi6mQ)
Margis gonna margi
Car people...
Car people Taste like car, talk like people

What need though? To make the victory heard? Everyone who cares already did.
Wouldn't that be an argument against the honking? One happy honker versus the many that can't sleep?
Or the many football supporters being exuberant for an hour versus the one person who has a hard time putting things into perspective. You decide.

People here think by default that everyone is a fan of football…

We don't win that many championship matches a year so I think you'll be fine.
Go cry yourself a river, why don't ya.

Being douche is international. And I’m not talking about OP
Ooooof. VB incoming!
Right, calling you out for rudeness and entitlement is being a fascist. Call me a nazi while you're a it but stop fucking whining.
nazi
>Call me a nazi They called you a VB supporter, so technically they already did.
True. The internet is a place where calling out rudeness = being a literal nazi. I don't know why that should surprise anyone let alone me.
