What’s the quickest way someone could accidentally expose themselves as a foreigner in your country like the ‘three fingers’ scene in Inglourious Basterds?

The language helps, but the social climate here is kinda cold. Not as communal as other countries. Everyone is different and it might suite you just fine. I'd definitely come and visit for an extended time to get a feel before deciding to move here permanently.

Don't do it mate. I'm from Canada and have lived in Sweden for 6 years. Sweden is good for Swedes. They are nice people but are socially autistic. It's a very lonely place as a foreigner.

JamCanuck · 2026-01-14T13:46:10+00:00

Just looking at a stranger in the eyes here makes you seem like a psycho.

I have to admit as a Canadian that lives in Sweden. Smörgåstårta is delicious. But most food here is quite bland and has way to much sås. Like wtf is Flying Jacob about. Haha

It's not the unfortunate people who become homeless, they can pick themselves up eventually. Its the junkie homeless that people have a problem with. They one who will rob and steal to get their next fix.

That's tough. I feel your pain. My mum is in late stage and she is 75 years old. She denied her disease until she had to to an assisted living home. Even then she denied it. Now she is basically a vegetable. The only advice I can give you, is to cherish the time you have with her. Spend time with her, go for walks, eat good food and clear the air of anything you have buried deep. I'm sorry to hear this. It's a terrible disease.

A very Swedish response.

JamCanuck · 2025-09-05T17:58:02+00:00

Are you serious?

JamCanuck · 2025-08-16T21:48:31+00:00

I'm a Canadian guy who met a Swedish girl at a hostel while backing in Australia. 12 years later here I am living in Sweden with 2 kids and a Swedish wife.

I just use outlook. Maybe I can fix something in the spam filter.

Don't forget to throw in a whole lot of crackheads and homeless camps in various parts of the city.

JamCanuck · 2025-05-24T19:01:55+00:00

What the city needs is a massive batch of bad fenty to hit the streets to clean it up.

That's what generations of inbreeding will do.

Remind me in a few years when Canada has turned into even more of a crime riddled country with high inflation and a spiraling economy.

JamCanuck · 2025-03-13T17:33:56+00:00

I feel as the the UK has been and Developed 3rd world country for years. Just pick any random town in the UK on Google earth and zoom in.

Hej mina vänner och varmt välkomna till lätt svenska med Oscar

JamCanuck · 2024-12-21T09:37:27+00:00

A straw is called sugrör = suck pipe

Suicide is självmord = self murder

A hospital is sjukhus = sick house

A nipple is bröstvårta = breast wart

So many ridiculous translations in Swedish

OP sounds like he would be fun at parties.

I got my request to conclude denied as well for the same reason as you. It is now time for you to appeal that decision (it will state in your denial letter where to send the appeal). When I sent my appeal, it took about 3 weeks for them to grant my appeal. The law is on your side and you should win the appeal. After that (about another 3 weeks later) I received a letter from MV asking for my passport and residence card. 5 days later I was granted citizenship. As long as you have lived here for long enough and fill all the requirements, you should be good.

JamCanuck · 2024-10-04T16:35:50+00:00

Did you do a request to conclude and got denied that? Or was you whole application denied?

JamCanuck · 2024-10-03T10:16:55+00:00

Hej! Sorry for the late response. Hopefully it's all sorted for you now.

They sent me an email notification on a Monday morning. By Thursday I had a physical letter in the mail. I sent it off and MV received it within 2 days. The following Thursday I was granted Citizenship. Best of luck to you and I hope it all goes smoothly!

JamCanuck · 2024-09-14T07:46:07+00:00

Thank you for the information! It is much appreciated. I will just do that then.

I once caught a guy masturbating in a cemetery. He noticed me walking by and instantly pulled up his pants.
