Epsilon the neoGreek culture is a mix of all the human rubbish cultures, where you can find more Jewish cultural elements than Greek. If Cyprus will be lucky enough to escape from the cultural shit hole of the neoGreeks may achieve something much better.

Militiadis think about retirement of life, I do not see any more use for it.

Allow me to say that you know nothing about today's Greek culture. You hear many negative things and maybe there are many of them BUT:friendship,Philotimo, Magia, respect of family,love for the country are still here, despite what you think.

Is a different thing my friend to be affected by American style of life and be Greek or Turk or Pakistani and is a different thing to be affected by American life style and be NOBODY -be a "CYPRIOT"

CORRECTION:be nobody-be a today's Cypriot

This pathetic culturally deficient individual thinks that to be a Cypriot is paramount to being a NOBODY , how can I resist the perfectly reasonable urge to call him a first class fucking idiot !!

Meltiades, I wonder whether you can write, even in your favor language, English, a line without to use the words malaka and idiot. These two words are coming out of your soul- is just you.!!!!!

I have lived 10 years in Greece.

The respect of the family it is more active in Cyprus.

Maggia? Skata! Tha elega thrasos afthadia and I’ve adopted a lot of that crap and this is not a worth to mention cultural element where the Turks are Magges in their own disgusting way.

Friendship? Is there a place where there is no friendship?

Philotimo? There are in every place people with philotimo but generally speaking like some wise said, never trust the Jews and the (neo)Greeks.

Love for their country? You mean nationalism that exists also in Turkey in higher level. Is something to be proud for?

There is no Greek way of life; there is a neoGreek style of life that is affected from Europe, America and the new way of life against the mental and cultural sickness of the past times.

10 years are not nogh my friend t understand a culture- it needs much more- its needs just 1 hour but to want it. Turks are in Germany for 40 -50 years but they are still not in position to understand the local culture.

If you stay in Greece for 10-20-50 years and you still thinking that I am a clever Cypriot, the central part of the world and you are kalamarades you will nevef find the points of this culture

[Daemon]

Look epsilon oi kalamaraes einai axristoi malakes(tzie esi mesa) and the neoGreek culture is a mix of cultural shit and it didn’t take me more from 6 moths to realize what was the shits they told me about the motherland.

If it wasn't so sad it would be funny...People coming to tell us we are NOBODIES unless we think we are Greeks or Turks...forgetting that we are in this mess because for a few crazy years we actually thought or wished we were Greeks or Turks...I would like Epsilon to explain to us how clinging to one aspect of our heritage would make the world rosy for us,Cypriots...If he makes sense I promise to reconsider my position and emrace my "Turkishness" in a big way...

I am half Cypriot (father;s side) and half Greek, albeit from an island in the eastern Aegean. I choose to call my self Cypriot.

I have been living in Greece for 33 years and I can assure all of you here that there is a difference in culture as there is a difference in every locality in Greece. Crete is as different from Macedonia as Corfu is from Mytilene. Cyprus is more different than most because of two factors, we were far away and therefore more protective or our culture and we existed side by side with the Turkish Cypriots. After travelling through southern Italy I see a lot of influences from there on both communities.

You cannot define the parts that are uniqie to Cyprus culture, but to borrow from the French professor who said that culture is what you have left after you take away elements of technological progress, then we have a lot that is unique. I have never come across people who are so interested in strangers as persons as Cypriots can be. If you have been away from the island for some years this curiosity can seem like prying, but it is not, it is genuine human interest that you do not come across anywhere else. It is one of the many positive aspects of Cypriot culture. There are many negative ones too. But there is no doubt that there is a unique Cypriot culture that cuts across the ethnic divide. I wonder how long this uniqueness can stand the pressure from outside.
