Not so long ago I read an article about how Trenitalia is among the best European rail companies in all the metrics, from price-quality to delays (or lack thereof).
Italians complain about trenitalia as if it were a national sport and they rarely can't understand that the country has one of the best railway systems of Europe. This kind of news about other European rail companies are always a joy to share with an Italian "tossing down the calendar" (Italian idiom for saying blasphemies) about trenitalia because they simply can't process it.
Odd indeed. I'd never say that, because I'm definitely a human and wouldn't need to say I am one.
