TAKING AN ARROW TO THE KNEE IS AN OLD NORDIC (NORSE/NORTHERN GERMANIC) SLANG FOR GETTING MARRIED!

THE GUARDS GOT MARRIED SO THEY STOPPED ADVENTURING TO LIVE A MORE MODEST STEADY INCOME JOB FOR THEIR FAMILY!

I'M FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW.

P.s. sorry for the caps lock;)

Huh, never knew that, well I should stop giving bandits the literal meaning then...

Really? Is that really an old Nordic slang term?

Source?
If this is true it's the most ausome thing in the history of stuff

Like "the old ball n' chain."

Except with arrows, and knees. That would be hilarious if true.

This is the 3rd or 4th thread about this today.

I heard it shouldn't be relied on as the site it's based on isn't reliable.

The first two threads about this were locked.

If there isn't a solid source for this information, don't post about it. It accumulates spam like crazy.
