      It’s migraine-inducing edgy with such color choice, but the bar is so low they’d need to dig down to reach the C tier from B they deserve. The B in B tier is not for Bad, but for Better than average.

          From all the Albanians that live in my neighborhood, I would sum them up saying if depressing brutalist buildings were to be personified, they’d probably be Albanian. Aside from the guys sitting outside the Albanian coffee shop that seem to be loving the life of drinking espresso and chain smoking, they seem kind of perpetually miserable. They do have some really good food, though, and the country itself looks like it has some pretty spots.

          Honestly, the language itself seems pretty cool, too. Despite being a natural language, it manages to look like someone’s fantasy conlang when you see it written down.

          Their beer has been terrible, from what I’ve tried of it. Tasted like musty bread and always seems to have free-floating goop in the bottle that should have been filtered out.

          They were a Stalinist dictatorship throughout the Cold War and built tens of thousands of bunkers around their landscape, spending a large part of their economy on preparing for the inevitable invasion by the capitalist imperialists and/or ideologically degenerate socialists. Then, afterwards, they gave the world Dua Lipa and a few other successful pop artists.
