For Ordinary People

   There is a difference between "peasant" and "peasant". A peasant is a man who digs his garden, raises his animals, earns his living by working in the fields. And Selyandur is the one born in Sofia, but without elementary manners, thinking that being born in the capital is something more than anyone else. I was born in Sofia, but I don't mind people leaving the villages and coming to live in the city. Everyone is free to do what he wants, as long as he does not disturb others. And if someone has to collect the dog's excrement, then the mothers with the children in the parks should collect their children's excrement, and not go out behind the bushes. Because the dog's dog is no different from the child's. When I see a mother do this, then I will do the same with my dog. F25

   Realize Bulgaria is for everyone and everyone decides for himself what to do with his life;)

   Aman is already grumbling about these "peasants". How do you know that the woman with the dog is not a native of Sofia? Doesn't it say somewhere on your forehead that you are a native? The world is evolving, you can't want to live in a rich and developing city with a population of 200,000. When I lived in a flat in Sofia, I witnessed the abominations of my landlady, she hadn't even bothered to dust the furniture ... what can I say now? Let me also post a topic that you are miserable ..

   You know what, I work in a 5 star restaurant and I AM FROM A VILLAGE! AMAZING, ISN'T IT? Have you heard of protocol service and serialization? Well, if you are not, I will tell you that this is the service Ferrari, if I may say so myself! In my opinion, it doesn't matter where you are from, but what kind of person you are. as I will smoke, I want permission from non-smokers, if any, etc. from the first seven years. But you, author, have nothing to do with the "upper floor" as long as you blame the people of the village for your troubles, no wonder it's easier, isn't it? NoBody

   I do not know why this division continues, "peasant-citizens", given that simplicity reigns everywhere and man is not determined by his place of birth, but by his actions. Rebel

   NoBody, I'm impressed! Are there really more savoir vivre restaurants? It would be a pleasure to dine in such a restaurant with my partner! If it is not accepted as an advertisement, would you indicate such restaurant (s) in Sofia?

   The woman seemed to be one of the old-fashioned city ladies. If she was a PEASANT, she shouldn't be disgusted by the shit of her own dog! She's a peasant, how many shit she's spit out, so that a dog's shit will startle her. And by village do you mean the countryside? Do you know that 90% of the population of BG lives outside Sofia? It is rural to insult half of Bulgaria because you met a few naughty people. And no one has to smile at you. In this difficult life, it is quite normal for people to be gloomy and unhappy. Vika

   # 6 And I would be very happy if you were my client, whoever you are :) I don't know if there are any in Sofia, because I'm not from there. My "kind" colleagues may be extinct, but they are still here and there. And one more thing, the protocol service is only for the most important guests, such as the president, the prime minister and some other important sticks ... NoBody

   I can't offend the people who are or aren't in Sofia, but it's a hell of a lot there. Not to mention that life is much more expensive. I would not replace my life in a small town in Gabrovo with anything. Clean, nice, calm and beautiful. The inhabitants are about 7000 people and we generally know each other :) I am calm to let my child in front of the block and my only problem is the stray dogs, but this is not missing in Sofia. Okay, sorry, but what do you like there ??? If you have your own home ok, the salaries are high and you are fine, there is a prospect for the children, but whether I will travel 20-30 km by city or 25-30 km to Veliko Tarnovo-Gabrovo, doesn't it matter? And like most countryside lodgers, is it worth paying 600 leva and up for lodging? Here we earn 1000 BGN per month together with my husband and we manage to save what Sofia is for me !!! And on the issue, I'm not quite sure that the people of Sofia are more cultured than us, because I've worked in a hotel and I know what your children do when they come on a trip. Well, it's not pleasant at all. Not to mention that you are not speaking correctly and that you think you are great. We are all people in Bulgaria ... When will the shoppers stop pretending to be shoppers and when will the gypsies stop pretending to be gypsies so that we can recover ??? If we all know that we are Bulgarians as it is written in our passports, there will be no problem! ~ Ramona ~ When will the shoppers stop pretending to be shoppers and when will the gypsies stop pretending to be gypsies so that we can recover ??? If we all know that we are Bulgarians as it is written in our passports, there will be no problem! ~ Ramona ~ When will the shoppers stop pretending to be shoppers and when will the gypsies stop pretending to be gypsies so that we can recover ??? If we all know that we are Bulgarians as it is written in our passports, there will be no problem! ~ Ramona ~

   I look forward to the holidays. People go to the countryside and they definitely breathe here. Otherwise it is a living sorrow. And in public transport, when someone starts calling me on the phone, I just want to get off before my stop. A simple example - I take a taxi, say an address (known to at least 99% of people), and this individual asks me what I mean? !? !! The same thing is with the tram stops. When a tram stops, cars with non-Sofia registration don't know that they have to stop? So how do I love them and be tolerant? And if I want to, I just can't.

   Number 1 is the most straight. I support her. I live in Sofia, I hate this city, but there is just an opportunity to work here. I was born here, my mother and father are from the countryside, I also lived in the countryside until I was 18 years old. What matters is not where you are from, but what your mentality is. I hate people with a rural mentality. I know people from the village who are wonderful, I also know people from Sofia who are disgusting. Look around - shit is everywhere. I personally have nowhere to take my child, the potholes in the streets yawned even more, filled with muddy water. And when a drummer passes by the car and gets stronger, seeing me with a pram, I forgive him and pull one for him, because he is pouring muddy water on my child. I hate bitches and stray dogs - because of the dirt they leave behind. But I also hate mothers whose children go out in the same way, throwing away packages of waffles and snacks. My child is small, now he is studying on a potty. But when he grows up and I'm out, I'll never hold him straight on the ground, I'll put diapers underneath and then throw him away.

   I support Ramona, and I wonder why everyone is pushing in Sofia, even though I'm from there. If it weren't for this mania, the whole economy wouldn't be concentrated in Sofia and other cities wondering what to live on. Things would be more evenly distributed. Sofia does not have the infrastructure for the population it accommodates. With the subway, things are going in the right direction, but there is still much to be desired. For the most basic destination: Student City - Sofia University, there is no metro line. Number 10, what's stopping you from softening? !! There are dialects in every country, and there are in Bulgaria, and no dialect is "more important" than the other. Shopski is also quite far from the literary Bulgarian, even the real Shopski (as it is spoken in the villages in the Western Balkans, not in Sofia) is so cramped that if you are not from there you do not understand anything. But no one complains about that? Only softening is your problem ... On the issue of taxis, I have the opposite example: I had ordered a taxi at a place in the center (!!), I went there, after a while I got a call that the taxi had arrived, but there were no taxis. I called the operators three times to ask them what happened to those taxis, they were spinning, sucking, and finally when there was nothing to say, "Well, we're sorry, the driver is from the countryside." he could not speak more shoppically than you. Even when he saw a car with a non-Sofia registration, he started swearing at the "villagers". If I had mentioned to him that the operators had said that he was from the countryside, he would have gone wild for sure ... However, if he came to the right address despite it, he would have come up ...

   What does it mean from the countryside, let's quote Hemingway now "Everything that is far from the sea is a province" and one more thing I will tell you that for simplicity and stupidity "Nonsense is done only by smart people, for others it is everyday" Oh, Wilde. If a person is a simpleton by birth, it does not matter where he is from. It is not the city that matters, but the mentality. Magicians

   I am not going to live in Sofia. I don't like it at all, I can barely spend a week there. He and I do not like ordinary people, but I am more annoyed by people from the "big good morning". If you understand me. I have lived for 7 years (the first, supposedly the most important) in a dumb, small village, where I was the only Bulgarian. If I don't tell someone, they won't even guess. So, as trivial as it is, what Maggie says is the truth. Bad

   9, Especially indicative is the fact that not a single bad word has been written about the other cities by the people of Sofia, and on the other hand Sofia is literally making it ... The total intolerance towards the people of Sofia and Sofia by the residents of the other cities is incredible. I have the feeling that you do not realize that there are people who love Sofia, people for whom Sofia is the most wonderful and pleasant city to live. Since I have been in this forum, and everywhere on the Internet, I am impressed that when talking about Sofia, you can say whatever you want - to swear, to complain..everything, we, the people of Sofia, have no right to defend the city us, and when it comes to other cities, Sofia residents have no right to comment. I find all these to be extremely unfair. And you have garbage, and you have miserable neighborhoods with panels, but you still fight in the chest, as if your funny towns are on the level of one Paris, one Vienna, one Budapest - three cities, much more beautiful than any hometown. So, take it easy!

   Oh 10 do you ask us what's wrong with us when they start talking to us in Shopski;) "let's go". You just speak a nasty and ridiculous dialect, but the worst part is that you think it's very correct. Go to Veliko Tarnovo to be taught a little Bulgarian. Not to mention how many times I've heard a shop say about a sea pool, but we can't all live in Varna and Burgas like that. I have been to other wonderful cities and there is no more miserable and smelly city than Sofia.

   It all depends on the person in the end. From his preferences. I have friends who feel good in a big city like Istanbul. I have friends who want to live alone in a forest. There are people who prefer the tranquility of villages and small towns. There are people who are alive and love the noise and the madness in the big city. That's why there are towns and villages - something for everyone.

   17, oh yes, the pig farmers in Velikio Tarnovo speak Bulgarian very correctly. They soften terribly, like some gays. And there are much nastier cities than Sofia, Sofia made it nasty and smelly selyanduri, who come to it from somewhere. The simplest people in Sofia are those from Student City.

   17, lol and what are these beautiful cities? I have visited many Bulgarian cities (Plovdiv, Varna, Tarnovo, etc.) and none of them is who knows what, let alone can be compared to Prague, what is left for Paris, London, especially Rome! You are one of those who have never left Bulgaria to say that there are nice big cities here. As much as you are angry, there are none! Only some small towns are nice!

   17, when they chose any of our official languages, they chose between Tarnovo and Macedonian, they chose Tarnovo. I don't know what kind of Bulgarian you speak there at the moment, you can wash it. In Sofia we speak neither firmly nor softly, we speak correctly. If you can see beyond your nose at all, you will notice that in western Bulgaria you speak much harder than in Sofia. The villages are one thing, Sofia is another. The dialects you are talking about, no matter how much you don't want to, are not from Sofia, and if Sofia was such a village, what do you make of it, why when you talk about it do you give as an example the villages around it and the people in them? If you want to understand how the people of Sofia speak, watch the news and listen to the presenters. As for your little town, I can tell you that in addition to the nice things we saw there, we are fed up with your rural streets near your center. How you make out that the people of Sofia were peasants with a firm voice reminds me of a comment about the launch of several new trolleys in Sofia. The news was about new lines, of course, but you provincialists again decided to show what complexes you are and in a comment it was written how they could make news about several new CARS in Sofia. They had all been replaced in their town, and we were miserable. : D A separate issue is that you do not need new lines anyway, except for your 10 (most) current ones, and the number of cars on your buses (your only vehicle) is as many as the number of cars for 1- 2 Sofia lines. And this applies to larger towns. Kubrate, this applies to you as well as to the shop. The surrounding villages are not the same as Sofia, it is not bad for you to understand it.

   Number 20 I heard the people of Sofia talking, there is no need to play the news. Exactly a grandmother, who was fighting in her chest that she was a native of Sofia, spoke to me in some incomprehensible way. I'm shocked when you start putting emphasis where you shouldn't and fucking. "As for your small town, I can tell you that in addition to the good things we saw there, we were fed up with your rural streets near your center. '' What is this little town. Somewhere I mentioned where I'm from. I gave an example with Veliko Tarnovo, but I did not write that I am from there. And at number 20 I will tell him to stop with this Prague. Aren't you tired, a man wrote a whole topic and even answered there himself and tried to convince us how ugly Bulgarian women and cities are.

   Oh, now I saw what you shoppers are proud of. With trams, dusty streets and 100 bus lines.

   Is there so much else to point out about Sofia that you found exactly the trams and their lack in other cities. And why we have trams to cram in I can not understand.

   For 23/24 - malice, read comment 16 again!

   To number 22 - Prague is really an incredibly beautiful city, very tidy and architecturally sound. But for Paris, Rome, etc. I can't agree. There are so many Bulgarian cities that are more beautiful and people are much more decent, whether they speak a dialect or pure Bulgarian. In Paris, for example, people are so rude that it's just unbelievable. It's full of Negroes from Africa who don't belong in Europe because of cultural differences, but they're naturalized French, and you can't drive them away. The city is 100 times dirtier than Sofia. If you communicate with these blacks and the biggest Bulgarian selandur you will find it wonderful. True, there are many beautiful buildings and landmarks, but they look out of place, in a sense in stark contrast to the architecture of the city and the dirt around. It was probably very beautiful in the past, but not now. In Rome it is the same - beautiful buildings, but all around terrible dirt and misery. Many people think that it is very bad in Bulgaria, but there are also worse in developed European countries.

   Come on, don't touch yourself so much now. In my opinion, the author does not mean the people from the village, and the peasants at heart - let's say Baiganovtsi. It could be from villages, it could be from cities, it doesn't matter. I am far from thinking that the people of the village are dumb and rude. On the contrary - in most cases they are hardworking, friendly, responsive. The truth is that the most rude and simple people I have met are from smaller cities. Note that I am not saying that everyone is like that. In my opinion, the indigenous people from Sofia, Plovdiv and Varna are generally more intelligent, simply because they had more opportunities for development and cultural life. The people in the villages work hard and do not have much time to improve, but this does not make them less worthy. With people from smaller cities, those who later move to larger ones, the situation is different. A lot of them are very cheeky, simple parvenu, who think they're doing a great job, but only have bad habits. Here again, I exclude decent people from small towns. The author does not discuss the intelligent people of the countryside. She is talking about such simple people who come from smaller settlements to the big ones and behave disgustingly. The fact that there are such people in the capital is off topic. The author does not summarize that all peasants or people from small towns are bad. She talks about those who were really rude and made a bad impression on her. I agree with her that there is a real difference from years ago. Of course, there are rude people from Sofia, but we are used to them. And when ordinary people from the countryside come, then it becomes too much, a person likes it and wants to complain and understand it, not to attack it.

   I fully support the author. I live in a house in the city and soon the floor above us was bought by an idiot who moved to live here from a nearby village. You can't imagine the simplicity. He heats with wood and splits them in his apartment, provided that there is a yard downstairs. The butts are thrown directly from the terrace. He pounded carpets from the terrace on the laundry of the terraces below - when we asked him to stop, he didn't care. Bought one floor has claims to absolutely everything. He repairs everything himself by knocking and knocking until 1 at night. He bought two old cars for him and his wife and parked them most brazenly, blocking them all. Properly "peasant" is a symbol of simplicity and impudence.

   I also support the author. I live in a block of flats where 90% are complete peasants - both geographically and by heart. It's just hell, that with the wood, hanging for hours on the benches, talking loudly on the stairs ... The examples are countless. To go to the village, where they feel comfortable and in their own waters.

   Simple people, weak state.

   Listen to me people, you don't seem to know anything about this. Nothing depends on whether you come from a small town or a village, it doesn't matter that you come from a village, it doesn't matter how much your upbringing and character is, it doesn't depend on the place, but on the character of a person, because there are people from the village, who are smart and good, but there are people from big cities who are simple and rude, there are ordinary people from both cities and villages. The same applies to the citizens of Sofia and the people of the cities. It depends on the character and upbringing it is!

   The last time I talked to two "native Sofians", who were about 25, it was about how under communism, it was good that Sofia was not congested and small towns were not depopulated, and the peasants selandurized the settlement . Too bad for communism, they said and hoped someone like Stalin would come and fix things ??? When I asked them why, they told me it was about equality and people, and when I asked them if they had heard of the Animal Farm and that Big Brother was badly beaten during communism, young people with beer in hand if he picked them up in the middle of the night. One told me that Big Brother was for dumb peasants, and the other asked me about this Farm for Animals, if it was some kind of book that is read in the village .... I thought they were talking .... But I was wrong . If I'm guilty of being from a small town, so be it, but at least different people,

   I fully support you. I live in a three-story house. A few years ago, the top floor was bought by some villagers from a village near Plovdiv. I can't describe the simplicity that came. Constantly pounding on our stretched clothes on the terrace, 5th year of uninterrupted repairs with breaking and drilling until 11 pm, quarrels over every little thing, greed to the point of fainting. They throw butts and remnants of the repairs from the terrace directly into our yard. Quarrels and police and nothing helps. Selandura is selandura. To bring them back to the villages!

   In principle, it is not right to put people under a common denominator. It all depends on the upbringing and culture of the individual. For example, while I was a student I lived in the center of Varna and I have seen such slops flying from the terraces that your imagination is poor. Not to mention that in my hometown, which is among the top 10, there are entire neighborhoods mired in misery and this is not from yesterday. Even in recent years, slight progress has been made, as many people have had the opportunity to travel abroad and see what cleanliness and order mean. This is simply the mentality of the majority of the people. As much as we don't want to admit it, it's true. When 10 people are guarded and 9 are thrown to ruin, it cannot be clean.

   I just don't agree that simplicity is with the peasants. And the citizens are not more prosperous, it is up to the person and upbringing. Yes, we are drowning in simplicity ... That day I stepped on a dog's dog, so every 10 meters they looked at me like crazy why I was trampling on the goals. We sit down with friends for coffee and we can't hear each other shouting at the simpletons, our heads are buzzing in the street from the roar of gas cars, young girls with the appearance of prostitutes, spitting two-legged everywhere, I'm tired of it for a long time !!!

   There is nothing wrong with being from a village or a small town, the problem is when you are a salesman. I know amazing people born in the most remote village, I also know complete simpletons born in Sofia. So it is not the field that makes man a selandur, but his upbringing. If you miss the first 7 years, wherever you are born, you will remain a drummer. That is why I never judge people by their place of birth, but by their upbringing. And yes, unfortunately Sofia is full of all kinds of selanduri, but some were born here. As for talking to you and me, it annoys me sometimes, but that's not the biggest problem. I am much more irritated by those who pretend to be very polite and polite, and then make such peasants that it is not worth telling. For example, I wouldn't mind talking to your neighbors if they didn't throw their trash on the balcony ... you know, this is not the biggest problem, here I am not currently using the polite form you, because I do not think it is necessary when it comes to such a forum. However, if we meet somewhere officially, then things will be completely different. In the office, I can't afford to talk to you with clients, even if they are people who have been our clients for years. One just has to have a sense. However, I tell you again, this is not a big problem for me, it is much worse when it comes to actions. One just has to have a sense. However, I tell you again, this is not a big problem for me, it is much worse when it comes to actions. One just has to have a sense. However, I tell you again, this is not a big problem for me, it is much worse when it comes to actions.

   I think that the culture of the Bulgarian, no matter how small it is, is in the lowest concentrations, both in the villages and small towns, and in the capital. The villagers and the citizens of Sofia are simply in different manners, but their level is more or less equal. Some call them simple rude peasants, others remind me of the tale of a laughing stump. The people from the villages: talk to you with strangers, put a newspaper instead of toilet paper, spit, listen to chalga, speak a dialect, have no manners, especially if they work somewhere with clients. Sofians: they also speak a dialect, but do not realize it, they are extremely arrogant, arrogant, arrogant, most of them live on the principle of petty thugs, what scam to do and what to steal, they are not productive people, but only look at how to drain someone with money, they are noisy and park as if there were no others, most of them have mental disorders, their service is also not six and their face is written with depression, they often talk nonsense when they are expected to be serious, and their value system is lower than that of the people from the villages. Just because someone talks to you with strangers, lives in a city where the cultural world has made more investments, and has an expensive car bought with money of dubious origin is not enough to enter the category of a person with culture! If Sofia was cultural, smart or normal, Bulgaria would not have the definition of a toilet of Europe! Once the opinion about a country is formed mainly in the capital and, the second time the country is governed from there! I say again the whole nation is shoddy, but the worst situation is in the villages, the small towns and the capital, as the peasants stand higher than the citizens of Sofia because there are more good people among them,

   So, is Bulgaria just a Sofia, dear viewers ??? I am also a native of Sofia, but I do not like people with this type of behavior as they are now

   As you described Bulgaria, you despaired me, people. I have been living in a western country for many years and the last time I visited God was in 2008. I had just decided to come back in 2016, but I think I will give up. I live in a 27-year-old city where everything is new and clean, the streets wide and green, the people polite and smiling. Here we have written and unwritten rules that are followed by almost everyone. Comparing this with what you have described for the Bulgarian cities, it is downright desperate. I think things are getting worse, how do you think there will be no improvement, we are already in the European Union. Won't we get anything from Western civilization !? I feel sorry for Bulgaria.
