‘Meanwhile In’ Photos That Hilariously Summarize Different Countries

Published 3 years ago

Although stereotypes can have some negative effects, sometimes they are downright hilarious. No matter where you are from, there must be some ridiculous stereotype about your city or country. These “meanwhile in” memes summarize various countries in a super entertaining way. Check out the pictures below, maybe you’ll find your own country among them?

1. Meanwhile in China

Okay, first of all, this isn’t a parking lot so let’s get this thought out of your head. Secondly, it isn’t some scene from a Chinese movie as well.

This is considered one of the longest traffic jams in the world that lasted for two weeks!

2. Meanwhile in Singapore

This funny sign in Singapore highlights the importance of not going out in the summer season.

This is the kind of skin tone you get when you are out in the sun for more than three hours. One commenter even said, “come to the US with this tan and run for president.”

3. Meanwhile in Japan

“Hey, we heard you gave some food to our cousin and we were just wondering if…”
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/NojayGames
One thing can be said with absolute certainty that this guy has been down this road with these deer before.

4. Meanwhile in Canada

Canadian people are just the nicest in the world and this is another example of that. It seems like such a caring gesture.

However, there is a possibility he planted a tracker in the box or even a bear trap underneath it.

5. Meanwhile in Bosnia

Well, it can be said that this car driver needs a new pigtail light.

Reddit/TomBradyGOAT
And hey, is that cute little piggy being used as the indicator? It must be like “hey, the car is turning left.”

6. Meanwhile In Australia

Wildfire and bushfires in Australia are quite common, so this sign kind of makes some sense.

Reddit/Brinq
But it is still odd because you can never feel relieved in other parts of the world if the fire status is ‘HIGH.’ We bet these Australians must be like “oh, there is nothing to worry about, the fire danger rating today is just High.”

7. Meanwhile in London

This is so considerate that they have not tried to vacate the goose that is not friendly at all. We have a suggestion: just play some music and it’ll fall asleep.
Meanwhile in London
Reddit/Hello_Wisconsin
In case you are not familiar with the Goose warning scale, here you have it. Level 1: The goose is sleeping. Level 2: Goose is not aggressive. Level 3: Goose is a bit puckish and annoyed. Level 4: The goose is protecting his nesting partner (approach at your own risk).

8. Meanwhile in Texas

Well, we thought you need a car to go through the Drive-Thru. Apparently, in Texas horses will work too.

Reddit/mattthebarbarian
We feel that it’s all fun and games until one of these girls spills hot coffee on their horse.

9. Meanwhile in Finland

As we know by now that people in Finland really give a lot of importance to personal space, this photo just confirms that.
Meanwhile in Finland
Reddit/killermasa666
There are benches in the country made for one person facing away from each other so that…yes, you’ve guessed it right…there is no issue of personal space.

10. Meanwhile in India

When there is a sign that has a tiger head and crossbones, don’t even think about doing something stupid.
Meanwhile in India
Reddit/hooliganking
Apparently, a lot of people went near the tiger that they had to come up with this sign. As a lot of Hindus believe in reincarnation, this sign is quite ingenious.

11. Meanwhile in Japan

We have a harmless question: how does one urinate elegantly? Okay, this is a really hilarious sign but just imagine what really forced them to put this sign in the first place.
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/BuffyASummers0717
It must be placed in a public washroom of boy’s high school because ‘mature’ men know how to urinate with precision and elegance.

12. Meanwhile in Japan

We did know that Japanese people are very respectful and are not quite straightforward, but this contradicts with that belief big time.
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/chitaroni
If you are fat, they will tell you that you are fat and they won’t sugarcoat it.

13. Meanwhile in Australia

Given that this happened in Australia, it is no big deal because this kind of things is a common occurrence there.
Meanwhile in Australia
Reddit/Shady_Slim
We really loved how this person mentioned the important details like the red fangs. We wouldn’t go near the box even if there was a dead spider.

14. Meanwhile in Japan

Don’t blame us for including most “meanwhile in” memes from Japan, some really uncommon things happen there and we have no control over any of them.
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/arbili
Even the mannequins in this country are not like they are in other parts of the world. Nevertheless, they look cool.

15. Meanwhile in Florida

This picture reminded us of the famous sewer scene from the horror movie “IT” in which Pennywise tries to lure Georgie into it.
Meanwhile in Florida
We must say that this croc doesn’t look as scary as Pennywise and we are sure it doesn’t have similar convincing power as well.

16. Meanwhile In Minnesota

Thank God now whenever people hear/read about Minnesota they can think of something else other than Fargo.
Meanwhile In Minnesota
Reddit/theHamburglersNugget
And hey, at least they have turned tennis into a much “cooler sport” right?

17. Meanwhile in Canada

Ever felt embarrassed at accidentally walking into other gender’s washroom? You won’t if you are in Canada.
Meanwhile in Canada
Reddit/fngrtps
As we all know that Canadians have earned a reputation for being the nicest people on the planet, this actually didn’t surprise us at all. Keep on reading to find out more about nice Canadians.

18. Meanwhile in Florida

If you are a little pissed that you cannot read the full quote at the bottom of this picture, here you have it: "As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake."
Meanwhile in Florida
Reddit/DwightKSchnute
We must admit that Florida is a really fun state. Where else you can find this type of humor, right?

19. Meanwhile in Korea

“Son, why on earth would you bring a bunny to a subway on a leash? Are you okay?”
Meanwhile in Korea
Reddit/alekmude
Given that people bring all sorts of pets to Walmart, we’ll admit that it didn’t really surprise us that much.

20. Meanwhile in Alaska

We are pretty sure that people in Alaska must be used to this, except for kids (of course).
Meanwhile in Alaska
Reddit/mntoak
Well, it is great to see that the moose is just minding his own business. Maybe he is going to meet some old friends, who knows.

21. Meanwhile in Kearney, Nebraska

There is no need to have a man-made refrigerator when there is a natural refrigerator outside, right?
Meanwhile in Kearney, Nebraska
Reddit/pluggemr
This seems like a cool idea for home parties. And is it just us or the doorknob is a bit far over.

22. Meanwhile in Texas

This person just moved to Texas and it seems like he is fitting in perfectly.
Meanwhile in Texas
Reddit/wrigleyirish
As there are a lot of pickup trucks in Texas, this unusual feeling will remain with him for quite some time.

23. Meanwhile In Montreal

The gun culture among raptors goes way back. They were allowed to run certain parts and there were no restrictions on guns.
Meanwhile In Montreal
Reddit/DannyB1aze
However, the population of raptors grew over time and this step had to be taken. Now they are only allowed to carry flowers.

24. Meanwhile in Australia

This sign pretty much says that ‘don’t take the road at all or the wildlife will get you.’
Meanwhile in Australia
Reddit/clitmitten
As people were still going out even after these kinds of warning signs, they thought that people will only take them seriously if they include Santa Claus as well.

25. Meanwhile in Russia

We all know about The United States and Russia rivalry, right? Well, it seems like Russia is a big fan of Hollywood.
Meanwhile in Russia
Reddit/Shoooric
We must admit that it seems super legit. One commenter even said that “is that Trump hotel in the background.” Damn, that’s cold!

26. Meanwhile in Canada

Most of us know that Canada’s climate is characterized mostly by a cold winter and a cool/moderate and humid summer. But how can you tell you’re actually in Canada?
Meanwhile in Canada
Reddit/Hell_hath_no
Well, this picture shows how you can tell you’re in Canada or not. And by the way, he shouldn’t be wearing those clothes because his “nippies” are quite obvious due to the cold.

27. Meanwhile in France

Apparently, the person who posted this photo claimed that llamas delayed Tour de France Stage 8, but that did not happen.
Meanwhile in France
Reddit/SmileyFace-_-
Nevertheless, it is pretty badass because it seems like they don’t care about the world or anyone else. They are wild souls.

28. Meanwhile In Springfield, Ohio

Homer Simpson must be driving this truck. We really admire the driver because at least he is giving a heads up to everyone.
Meanwhile In Springfield, Ohio
Reddit/spunknugget
If you ever wanted to come to Springfield as a fan of The Simpsons, just don’t…it’s for your own safety.

29. Meanwhile in Canada

We will only ask one question: why would you do this Canada? Why do you want people to make fun of you?
Meanwhile in Canada
Reddit/Zeref-117
We are sure there must be many famous people in Canada and you can name these streets after them. We are so confused right now.

30. Meanwhile In Sweden

Well, you have to deal with problems with modern solutions, right? Here is how you do it.
Meanwhile In Sweden
Reddit/IHaeTypos
We are quite sure this baby in this stroller goes around the town with background music playing “they see me rollin’, they hatin.”

31. Meanwhile In Poland

We must admit that the photographer shouldn't have taken this picture as it was ‘nun of his business.’
Meanwhile In Poland
Reddit/szyy
There is a possibility that these nuns have developed a habit and now they are addicted to speed. But they should know that speed thrills but kills.

32. Meanwhile in Texas

If there is Texas, there will be cowboy hats. But thankfully, most people don’t go to construction work wearing cowboy hats.
Meanwhile in Texas
Reddit/AlexDFN
But this cowboy safety hat doesn’t look safe at all. We just feel that it can easily catch falling objects which means that all the force will be transferred directly to the wearer.

33. Meanwhile in Japan

"I am a Samurai. I ride on a steel horse wherever I go." This guy looks super cool in this costume.
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/aleenamaleena
And yes, we just want to clarify that this samurai is not Keanu Reeves after he was done with the shooting of 47 Ronin.

34. Meanwhile in Sweden

Oh, thank God that finally Sweden confirmed that they also have a sense of humor.
Meanwhile in Sweden
Reddit/cyan1618
We are quite sure the engineer of this train graduated from ‘University McUniversity face.’

35. Meanwhile in The USA

Well, well, well if it isn’t MS. I AM NOT AFRAID OF FIREWORKS. We must admit that we haven’t seen any cat as of yet who isn’t afraid of fireworks.
Meanwhile in The USA
Reddit/Big0Lkitties
This cat is not like others. In fact, she loved the sight so much that she jumped onto the window to get a better view.

36. Meanwhile in Japan

Although you can get pretty spooked at seeing someone like this coming from behind, it is still a cool picture.
Meanwhile in Japan
Reddit/deadiphone
By the way, this picture reminds us of a 2001 Japanese animated coming-of-age fantasy film Spirited Away.

37. Meanwhile in Finland

Well, this picture shows how much people in Finland love their personal space. It is like they all have mutually decided that no one would come near for as long as the train doesn’t arrive.
Meanwhile in Finland
Reddit/Famsys
It is yet to be found that whether people in Finland have this approach wherever they go or this is only used when they are at places that can get crowded.

If you liked it, you should share it
