"Control your own and your teenager's showers. And when you turn off that water, you say: 'Take that, Putin!'" This was the suggestion given by Margrethe Vestager, the EU Commissioner for Competition and Executive Vice-President of the European Commission last Wednesday while she was at a Politico Live event.

Vestager may have been attempting comedy, but Twitter users, including many European netizens, did not think so. After a video clip of the show was posted on Twitter over the weekend, it sparked ridicule from many netizens.

"Just a powerful, well-paid EU bureaucrat thinking people are more idiotic than she is," said Luigi Colline, an Italian Twitter user. He was replied to by Mauro Catellani, who remarked. "Today I took the longest hot shower of my life singing 'Take that EU!'"

Another twitter user Alessandro Gardini suggested, "If only we could turn bureaucrats' stupidity into energy, Europe would be self-sufficient."

Some netizens checked if it is still April Fool.

Chinese netizens were also entertained by Vestager's speech. "That's right, back to medieval times! No shower is the good old tradition of Europe," said one. "Why don't you suggest people avoid eating, in order to save food?" mocked another.

没知识，真可怕。

Most people will not be interested.  Must be one of those anti-EU people's "got nothing to do or poke" kind of propaganda or jokes.

Personally,  I found nothing wrong with the calls to ask teenagers not to take too long for a shower because the gas used for the shower in EU is mostly from Russia.

BTW,  this lady, Margrethe Vestager, is just a Commissioner for competition.  She is not in charge of EU sanctions.  There are altogether 27 Commissioners in the EU,  one from each member country.  Even if this EU Commissioner made some negative remark,  it does not represent the Whole EU Commission.  Please learn,  so that people don't get offended & call you names.
