High up the mountains

Just realized that if we exclude norway from scandinavia, the map of sweden and Finland would just look like a non-erigated penis ...

You only just noticed?  It makes me giggle whenever I see pictures of older Euro coins.

Hehehehhehehhehehehe

A non-erigated penis the size of Sweden? The mind boggles.. if it was erect it would be penetrating Iceland..

Röyksopp is making the new theme music for fjordlandian state news.

That's pretty fancy.

Omg thats so cool, i like how he compares it to a software update

The software update thing was spot on. And I for one thought it sounded pretty cool.

WTF does it say ?

I started translating for you, Az:

"I nærmere ett år har Svein Berge og Torbjørn Brundtland jobbet med å lage en ny lydprofil til Norges mest sette nyhetssending. Her kan du høre vignetten som snart kommer på TV."

=

"I nearly ate around seven burgers at Torbjorn Brundtland [obviously a burger joint]; job med[ically] large in my lidproof til Norc [?] most set myhatsending [euphemism for upchucking?]. Her can do whore vignettes ..[at this point the translator gave up, overcome with blushes at what came next.]"

So there you go, Az. Tried to help, but it became rather thick there at the end.

I love your interpretations Halfy !

oh dear ... shall i translate?

I just did.

ok, you're translation is better.

Even more hilarious when you know what it actually says

And you nearly got one word right.

About the software update, he basically said. "We expect complaints. It's a bit with like a software update. You get all these fancy new functions that can't see the point of, but with time you start wondering how you could ever live without them."

thanks Blue, Awwwh, you kept the squishy owls

That's what often happens with hamburgers. Different sauce, fresh onions replaced with grilled...

Squishy owls. Hamburgers can be good if made properly.

got a bit nostalgic and realized how well this song depicts fjordian dialects (+ swedish and english) they're basically just saying two lines which roughly translates "have you farted, have you pooped, do you have dongleberries (poop) in your butt?" but yeah, saying it in different dialects. it's probably funnier if you know the language, but i can imagine it'll be fun to show you guys how different one sentence in bokmål "har du bæsja, har du prompa, har du donglebær i rompa?" can sound very different. Northern version (where they stop and applaud) is "har du kabla, har du slusa, har du svartball i mannemusa?".. how to translate that.. "have you laid a cable, have you sluiced, have you got black-balls in your man-cunt?" the sørland one (all at the bottom of this country) has a very polite one "do you have poop in you little face?". the majority of this is more or less un-translatable but you get the idea. 

gold right here.
