A Sport That Doesn't Suck Too Much

[exciar28]

Kwang Duk is so famous man in South Korea hahah.

I like Ben Folds a lot. Maroon 5 is absolutely hideous.

although I make fun of sports (there is just too much good material there not too), I am actually a casual fan.

per capita, Finland certainly has to be the most "metal" of all nations.

other reasons:

1) in WWII they put up a surprisingly good fight against Russia.
2) Sibelius
3) reindeer
4) Timo Tolkki getting peed on while on stage
5) Is there a better keyboard player (Janne Warman) playing in a band (Children of Bodom) which doesn't utilize his skills? Although his solo albums are schizophrenic, his piano pieces are amazing.

and I really, really think Nightwish and Sonata Arctica are good.

NP: Nightwish - Once

[avi]

[lizard]

what about lefse?

 

[avi]

I try to remain ignorant of northern smelly fish specialties

 

[lizard]

no no lefse is some sort of pancake/tortilla thing.

i once stereotyprf Finns when I was ill and said that they never got sick because they had enough vodka in their system at all times to kill any and all sources of contagion. He responded by saying I understood finns better than any american he'd ever known and inviting me to drink with him

Lefse is a brilliant invention, a delcious pancake like roll of butter and cinnamon. Imagine slaughtering a village worth of men and raping all their wives and then eating that, truly valhalla is reached.

 

[lizard]

yes, but then you have to sail/row back to your village in an ungainly craft ill suited for deep water, all the while eating cod soaked in lye.

yum.

I'm of the impression that the berserker rage starts again about the time the rowing has to start again and you black out until allof a sudden you wake up the next morning in heap on shore. I higly reccomend a berserker rage to everyone, it makes everything easier. And being that Vikings are badasses, I'm sure they love lutefisk. Only a real badass, with teeth of steel and a digestive system of cast iron could even digest that garbage.
