But it's funny when foreigners try to speak Swedish. 99% or so fail to ever learn it correctly.  :P

Why should any of us bother, seriously?

You have already made the effort to learn MY language, sufficiently to know when I put you down.

It seems like we both win.

I just plussed you so I'll have to owe you karma points.

NO!!

I fucked up!! I linked directly into his site, without a proper warning and set of disclaimers.

This dude has a more appropriate introductory page.  Click back to the beginning and save THAT page.

Then over the coming week, read every word. It is very entertaining.

Better page to save ...

No problem, will do  ;D

"No worries!"

WHY, out of all the great Australian sayings, did that one have to take over the world?

Sure, it sounds all breezy and carefree, but it is actually code for "If you have any sense, keep a tight hold on your wallet at this time."

Haha!!

I first heard it about 10 years ago coming from a very preppy / yuppie couple from Sydney (I worked with them).  They both sounded so mindlessly cheerful when they said it, it drove me mad.

The, in recent years, I've been hearing people from all over the world saying it.

Why not, "Love your work!" or "Good on ya!" . . .  Oh yeah, we gotta keep them priceless gems to ourselves.

Though I have earned no end of trouble for being unwilling to say that.

Does anyone know what "5 X 5" means? The villains on "Buffy" used to say it a lot.

"Five by five" is radio-operator-speak for "signal received loud and clear."

My childhood was traumatized with semi-communist "child programs" on TV, anyway.  :-\
