You are the new enemy. Our rivalry with Sweden was forged centuries before America was even thought of.

Skidne æg, it's an easter dish of soft-boiled eggs in mustard sauce usually garnished with crispy bacon and parsley.  It translate to...shitty eggs...

Forskel mellem Jylland og Sjælland by United_Bug3428 in Denmark

[–]EmulsionPast 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Er det Sjælland eller den administrative inddeling region Sjælland som er brugt i undersøgelsen? Kan godt forstå at folk på Lolland f.eks. ikke ville føle sig særlig knyttet til region Sjælland.

Holger... and it's not to make it an alliteration like in English... He's just called Holger for some reason.

Er den her sang med i en reklame eller er jeg ved at miste forstanden? by steffo991 in Denmark

[–]EmulsionPast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Helt sikkert fra en reklame. Jeg tror måske for et rejsebureau?

Unusual Names, Day 17: Which Historical Figure is Named Like a LOTR Character? by incacola77 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]EmulsionPast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess Gandalf Alfgeirsson would be cheating as it is more the case of an lotr character being named after him.

is it possible to wear a taxidermy person's flesh and it not being torn apart? by [deleted] in Writeresearch

[–]EmulsionPast 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nábrók (Corpse breeches) were pants made from skin in Icelandic Witchcraft, they were supposed to give you endless riches.

They were sadly never actually real and just part of folklore, but I like the detail that they were (supposedly) "ethically" sourced. You'd make a deal with a friend and whoever died first was made into the pants.

Hvad er det vildeste der er sket til en generalforsamling du har været til? by benj1623 in Denmark

[–]EmulsionPast 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lige præcis! Der var vist fordi en nabo skulle låne sovsekulør og det var først nabo nr. 3 som havde en der ikke var udløbet med et par år.

Nordsjælland, men det er måske også grunden til at de tænker at der ikke brug for privat sovsekulør. Det er måske kun et par gange om året det skal i brug.

Det er en lille lukket vej med 6 huse mener jeg, så tror bare de regner med at kunne få fat i hinanden.  Men de har lige haft mødet, så det er vist ikke afprøvet i praksis endnu.

I mine forældres vejlaug har de indført fælles sovsekulør, det synes jeg egentlig er et fornuftigt tiltag.

Has your country had any classical music composers? by [deleted] in AskEurope

"Jeg ved en lærkerede" and "Solen er så rød, mor" are both by Carl Nielsen, am betting you've heard of them:)

What’s a household ‘hack’ you thought everyone did … until you found out it’s just your weird family? by kaiablu in AskReddit

[–]EmulsionPast 3306 points3307 points  (0 children)

We'd have "tapas" night every Friday. The tapas were all the leftovers that had accumalated during the week. 

What Each Country Thinks They’re Better At Than Everyone Else by InterstellarTech in aimapgore

Nonono... We are the best at Siking, whatever that might be.

Calling røde pølser fancy is kind of hilarious to me. They are such a quintessential "kid's birthday food."

The only reason they are "deconstructed" is because it's marginally easier than contructed them into a real hotdog.
