LordArgh posted:finnish is some kind of crazy language that isn't like any other language except hungarian or whatever, so it makes sense that they'd have more trouble learning english than someone who speaks something closer to it its actually alot closer to estonian and karelian, and is also somewhat close to the sami languages in northern scandinavia, it is in the same overall language family as hungarian (finno-ugric, of the larger uralic group of languages) but the two aren't really that close apart from that in the same way that two speakers of languages from separate groups within the indo-european family won't understand that much of what the other is saying. Demonachizer posted:Finns are pretty great people and fun as gently caress to drink with. Much better than Norwegians certainly. norwegians can be fun to drink with, its just that most of us are boring and tedious as poo poo i guess, you just have to look in the right place. but, yeah, finns will drink until they are blind. *swedish movie, its a family gathering of northern swedish people and their finnish family ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv6NLYTBx-o

I don't understand a word of that, but now I'm even more convinced that Finland is the place for me. e: holy poo poo "Tony Christian Halme[3][1][2] (January 6, 1963 – January 8, 2010) was a Finnish politician, athlete, author and actor. Halme was a member of the Finnish Parliament from 2003 to 2007, representing the True Finns party as an independent politician. He was also known by the pseudonym Viikinki he used while appearing in Gladiaattorit, a Finnish version of the TV game show Gladiators, in the 1990s. He was also a professional wrestler best known for his appearances with World Wrestling Federation under the name Ludvig Borga, an MMA fighter and a professional boxer who held the Finnish Heavyweight Championship. He was also first fighter from Scandinavia to ever compete in Ultimate Fighting Championships" finland owns

BigwigML posted:What the heck is so awful about living in Lithuania? The company basically imploded a during the 2009 mega recession and decided that a IMF mandate austerity for bailout program would be the cure. Basically went back to the middle ages like chopping wood for heat in the winter to save money and lots of government run programs like healthcare had to dramatically downsize. https://www.opendemocracy.net/opensecurity/lukas-mikelionis/lithuania-road-between-misery-and-austerity the night dad posted:I heard Iceland loves American culture so they're cool. Other downside of Iceland is the cute girl in the bar has a high change of being a distant cousin. It's a side effect of how the country doesn't have much immigration and also was found by a small number of viking settlers. etalian fucked around with this message at 07:25 on Nov 10, 2014 |

For all the goons who want to go to finland because they think they will automatically be more attractive, just realize that they have a really low obesity rate. When I went there i only saw 1 fat girl under 30 and it was my turkish cousin lol
