Probably cause the cold. But no more sweds on the internet the snow is gone!

Too hot during the summer, especially in the kitchen at work. D:

Oh yes, it's never good weather around here except on the last day of school, everytime it's a nice sunny day. everytime!

I'm moving to Sweden, and I will track all Goldfishies down and feed them to a mud guppy... except for gab, of course.

Not here, it snowed this morning. And it all had finally melted too. :cryvaultboy:



The only day that has the same weather here is Saint Patrick's Day, it's always the only day that week that has perfect weather, 75 degrees farenheit and green grass. :disguise:

Same thing here. Grass and flowers began to peek up, then BAM! a few inches of snow... but it is melting away again now

Hey y'all, we don't have that here 'bouts on Mars, but the interweb's kinda slow.

I would think so.

Nah, still too frozen for flowers to pop up, or was ya talking about the interweb?

Here's another tally for the Midwest, and for a hope that it will be featured in Fallout 4.

<-- Central Wisconsin.

Lol i so second this.

@gab do you really do that...strange dance.

Note: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8I5BGsK5ZAU&feature=fvwrel is NOT how we celebrate it

Ok im severely confused now. I couldnt understand a single word. Didnt understand what they were doing...

That's how we in Borl?nge celebrates it.

:)

You don't need to understand what they say, just look at the situation.

It's a banned commercial for IKEA which has nothing to do with IKEA. IKEA Germany made it, and it was banned by the head office in Sweden. Reason why it's banned is pretty obvious - it mocks swedes and doesn't say anything about the furniture the company sells.
So basically, the germans took our midsummer's eve celebration, and tried to make it funny and portray the swedes like some kind of hillbillies. It starts out fairly well with them raising the pole, and wearing old traditional clothing, but it's still rather silly. Then they dance around it like morons (although in real life, you do aswell though not as violent, but the kids love it) and the musicians can't even play (they also forgot the accordion, which is the most common instrument played during this tradition). Then they eat food, and I am sure you can guess why that is silly, with eating raw fish and uncooked peasoup, and they all drink moonshine, and the guys fight, and then there's the party girls dancing on the car and the DJ, and the guy having six with that old lady........

It ridicules the tradition. That's what I said this is NOT how we celebrate it We DO raise a pole dressed in flowers, some people do wear traditional clothing (like old people) and play traditional music (also the old people) and we do eat fish, potatoes and the like (though cooked) and dance around the pole, and get drunk and party for real and get laid and all that... but the whole situation in the video was rather pathetic don't you think?


EDIT: I guess some people, like Gab, celebrate it exactly like that. Gab, you're that old lady at the end? Or the party girl on the car?

And this ladies and gentle men. Is why...I dont learn about other cultures.

No offense.

I am from the great and mighty country of CANADA! Tremble in our wake!

I guess you wouldn't be interested in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZjLATAUwao&feature=related then?

Ain't that a bit ignorant? Like "Oh, they've got traditions unlike ours. Weird. I think I pass". But I guess if you want to see something new, you can just travel to a different state. The language and currency will still be the same, so it feels comfortable.




It would be too different for him. You know, another culture and all.

Ummm...no...just no

I can't see why he doesn't like it, I never understood the lack of people wanting to experience alien cultures, which, in my area, it can be pretty 'American or git out' mentality. I love hearing the strange sounds from languages of other nations, the unfamilair cultures. About the only things I don't do are some foreign foods, some foods are to bizzare for me to deal with the thought of eating. :bonk:

Come to Sweden and eat Surstr?mming (fermented herring!) It's a must!

I recommend you don't eat it. That [censored] is nasty.

Black Pudding anyone?

Yum yum yum
We eat swedish black pudding with with swedish lingonberry jam!
