I meant on mass, of course people will be poking the hornets nest a day later but generally they will get massive flack: see shadman (those this guy kinda set himself up to be hated as he is.......not the best person anyway)
It takes a while before the jokes can be considered "funny" by the masses.

Yup. Though for full disclosure German Empire flag was quite different (explaining look of Reichtangle)

Damn reddit stealing credits again. Polandball comics originally came from 4chan /int/ board.

The basic premise is easy enough to follow with ballmorphized countries interacting and whatever talking with various degrees of broken English. For most part the comics rely on knowledge of history, international politics and national stereotypes for their humour with of course differing degrees of success in being funny and/or informative. However like with any popular internet thing like this permutations and inside jokes that emerged like the cosmic horror Reichtangle that Germany supposedly again turns into and Israel being box instead of ball due to being constructed with Jewish Physics.

UKball simply looks snazzy with top hat and le monocle and who doesn't love a bit of old school imperialism anyway.

So for that

bonus

Wait a minute, Ireland is the one telling that joke. My guess is it was going to be pretty dark either way.

... and then that comic makes double more sense. Black comedy at its finest.

^Well, they did release one teaser image, emphasis on 'tease'.

Like FINAL, it remains in the realm of works which will only ever be worked on after their creators have finished all the other cool stuff they want to do.

I don't think I ever saw that teaser image! If a S2 ever came out, of course I'd watch it-- but really, I enjoyed the first one not so much for its plot as for just how completely wonky and batshit crazy it was. I feel like trying to put a plot into PSG might have potential to work if the right people were involved, but the show would need to find a way to not take itself seriously at all (and take that fact in and of itself completely seriously.)

Well, chocolate goes well with coffee and Kinder makes eggs-shaped chocolates. As we all know, Kinder eggs are amazing.

By God! I think they are onto something.
