Why does Sweden refer to Norway as It’s little brother?
« on: October 08, 2010, 05:58:54 AM »
It was Norway who went through all the s***, they fought during WWII, while Sweden did nothing, the Norwegian Vikings were the most feared ones too, and Nordmann means Norseman, while Svenske means Swede, Norseman is more masculine and BRAVE than Swede, like Germany to Austria, Hitler was from Germany’s little brother, Austria f.ex.

Because Norway is its bitch, obviously.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

I know.


You see what you have to factor about this is the simple fact, that as you probably know, we're no strangers to love. You know the rules and so do I. A full commitment's what I'm thinking of. You wouldn't get this from any other guy. I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling. Gotta make you understand. Never gonna give you up, Never gonna let you down, Never gonna run around and desert you, Never gonna make you cry, Never gonna say goodbye, Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We've known each other for so long. Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it. Inside we both know what's been going on. We know the game and we're gonna play it. And if you ask me how I'm feeling. Don't tell me you're too blind to see (Ooh give you up), (Ooh give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up) (Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

OK, I'll rate this as the 'Post of the Week'...'cos I start reading thinking about the issues between Norway and Sweden, and finish up with a Rick Astley song in my head.

Yes, but you'll have to remember who started it. He needs another few years of perspective.

he does, but in the meantime he could TRY to take to heart the infinite ammounts of hints, tips and pointers he gets, that he ignores, for then to get flamed for continued idiotic behaviour.

and every time i get sympathy for him, given his age and all, he goes and make some idiotic statement, or 10 idiotic fucking threads. ive TRIED to be diplomatic about him, and he thanks me by calling me a faker.
*sleeves went up* for that one.

one thing is if hes trying to be a troll. then he should expect bolded out criticism, and trolling in return. ive NO fucking idea what hes trying to do... i have a lot of patience, and i still have more left, but its getting quite aggravating, i have to admit :(
especially now that people have allready begun confusing my name with him >:'(
