in Italy everytime I try to talk about nostr to people they think is a joke. Conversations be like:

me: "do you ever heard about NOSTR??"

them: "not funny..."

me: "seriously, nostr..."

them: "NOSTRONZO ce sarai"

NOSTRONZO means literally "a piece of shit" in italian.

They think is something like the "stocazzo".

We have this thing, we say " do you know Belesjakasaa???" the other person say "who????" and we say "STOCAZZZOOOOO!!!!!" its the peak of italian comedy. Stocazzo means literally "this dick".
