I also live in Hungary and there is a saying "a Hungarian can enter the turnstile after you and leave before you" which is quite true. Everyday life here involves a lot of hacking/tinkering mostly because of the repercussions of bad decisions of our (not only past) leaders.

Many fellow Hungarians keep bringing this up because they think that it's a positive thing expressing how clever Hungarians are while in reality this is not exactly intended to flatter anyone. :)
