Hei from Norway

[Mystical]

We're also infamous for lutefisk and smalahove, but for your own good, don't ever try any of those things. Don't even google it. (I'm serious, it's horrific.)

 

Well that just makes me want to google it 

*goes to google

Lutefisk (pronounced LEWD-uh-fisk) is dried cod that has been soaked in a lye solution for several days to rehydrate it. It is rinsed with cold water to remove the lye, then boiled or baked, and then served with butter, salt, and pepper.

That wasnt so bad! 
Now for smaholalove

Smalahove (also called smalehovud or skjelte) is a Western Norwegian traditional dish made from a sheep's head, originally eaten before Christmas. skin and fleece of the head is torched, the brain removed, and the head is salted, sometimes smoked, and dried. The head is boiled or steamed for about three hours, and is served with mashed rutabaga and potatoes. It is also traditionally served with Akvavit. In some preparations, the brain is cooked inside the skull and then eaten with a spoon or fried.

O.O

Ummm..


 If I were a good observant Christian, I'd be horrified at what you Nords do to poor lil sheep for Christmas! But...I'm not! I'd grab a fork and ask if anyone had a nice bottle of Chianti to go with! ^*^

We're also currently known as the country who throws out the highest amount of refugees, with our "proudest" moment being when we (and by "we" I mean our shameless, evil minister of immigration, Sylvi Listhaug, who almost makes Trump look good) recently sent a family back to Kabul, which shortly after got injured by an explosion. They were arrested and deported on the very day the 7 year old boy was celebrating his birthday. 

The only thing that makes Trump look any better is pitch black darkness. Which, incidentally, he seems to be attempting to make a reality! Luckily we may just get to charge him with High Treason, instead, and call it a day. Treason is punishable by death here. Wishful thinking, I know, but If only we could say.. "You're fired!". 

But enough gloom! I love guinea pigs, so I guess that's worth mentioning. However bad mood I'm in, a picture or video of guinea pigs will cheer me up instantly.

See, I never 'got' guinea pigs, until I realized.. thats the great thing about guinea pigs!

People who know me would say I'm a nerd. I love gaming (computer,•c tabletop RPG, LARPs and a few select board games), literature (that includes comic books), TV series and movies with a passion normal people can't really relate to. I'm also deeply into soundtracks. Of course I love Star Wars, Marvel, Harry Potter (#TeamSlytherin) and Doctor Who, to mention some. You may at any point talk to me about any of these things. 

Bold by me*

Team Slytherin indeed!



You have good tastes.
Like me  
Can you tell me which online game the song on the guinea pig video features? If so, we should play! If not, you should make a profile so we can play!

I know everyone says this, but I love traveling. The highlights of my life have definitely taken place abroad. My year studying in Glasgow (Scotland), way back when, was amazing, and I consider that place my second home. I've made it to San Diego Comic Con three times, and every time has been wildly epic. I've also been to Paris, Berlin, Athens, Montreal, San Fransisco and L.A., and loads of cities in the U.K. I actually lived in England for half a year, and worked there as a nurse. I learned a lot from that.***

Good gravy wasn't getting your nursing degree enough school?! My hat's off to you, girlie!
If you're ever in Denver for a Comic Con, let me know! (We have DUNKIN DONUTS here!)

Politically, I'm a "leftist libtard," as the intellectuals on the right side like to call us, and Bernie Sanders is my spirit animal (followed by Alaska Thunderfuck and John Barrowman). I'm more fond of food than what's good for me, especially junk food and sweets, and my greatest tragedy in life is that Dunkin Donuts hasn't found its way to Norway yet. I used to have a great workout routine going to compensate for this, a few years ago, but I've gotten lazy in my old age.**** Still trying to get back on track, though. 

Bold added by me*

:ROFLWAFFLE:
