On the "Europeans" side that's at least 2 decades out of date.

The expresso coffee part is still true in a good part of Europe, but pretty much everywhere in it nowadays only a small fraction of people smoke and even those who do can't actually do it inside a coffee shop because they're not allowed to smoke there anymore, which spoils a great deal of the enjoyment of having a morning coffee.

I live in Germany and work with Turks, Poles, Ukrainians, Romanians, a Greek and a Slovenian. This meme is accurate for all of us. Weekends are a different story of course but in my experience this is indeed the true business day continental breakfast.

Is it? I was just in London a couple months ago, the amount of people smoking and vaping there was honestly shocking.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 23 hours ago

I grew up in the 1980s and trust me it's a microscopic fraction of what it used to be. You used to be able to cut blocks out of the air. If you sat at the back of a cinema you would be lucky if you were able to see the screen through all the haze. That's all gone now.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

As a fraction of the total it's still a small percentage, unless things changed a lot in the 5 years since I moved out of there.

Yes, but not in the balkans. Went to Bosnia and was served an espresso and a cigarette as an addition to breakfast. It was even on the menu. I should mention that i only asked for a coffee.

[–] Datz@szmer.info 4 points 1 day ago

It was a culture shock that you can smoke indoors there, especially since I hate smoking.

Wonder what's so good about coffee and cigarettes combo

[–] PrincessTardigrade@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Former smoker here. The flavor combo is amazing, and both act as stimulants, and I could get my fix for both addictions in one go.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

that hippie speedball is beautiful when done right too

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I had never heard this term but that's dope

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I haven’t smoked in 8 years- and every morning when I have my coffee I STILL think, “fuck, a cigarette would elevate this whole experience just right.”

Don’t start. Bad idea.

[–] fleebleneeble@reddthat.com 3 points 1 day ago

If you're a pooping-challenged individual, it really helps knock that out whenever. And that always puts a smile on anyone's face

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Probably the same as sex and cigarettes.

Or alcohol and cigarettes.

Double the high.

don't try it, but trust that it's awesome.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

It’s a culture that doesn’t eat any damn vegetables, so they need weapons-grade stimulants to get anything out in the morning.
