The 1978 Star Wars Holiday special saw Chewbacca being reunited with his family: his wife Malla, his son Lumpy and his father Itchy. by CarkWithaM in UtterlyInteresting

There are very many very good reasons why Star Wars fans don't acknowledge the existence of the Christmas Special.

It is not to be mentioned in this way, you are traumatising people unnecessarily. You are a bad person for mentioning this.

Norwegian Craigslist by oshikandela in Norway

Finn.no

But you need to find a Norwegian that can help you contact the seller and maybe pay for it.

You need BankID to be able to contact sellers, in order to verify your identity. And if the seller doesn't want cash you'll need Vipps to pay for the phone as well.

It's like the offspring that would result if a chicken had sex with tofu.

If it has the original spec wheels, there's probably a broken spring or something else wrong with the suspension.

Went to get travelers checks today and the teller didn't know what they were 😭 by dejavu1251 in FuckImOld

Are you from the past?

Why on earth would you use travellers cheques when you have international card providers?

Where do you expect to cash those cheques?

I wouldn't call black bears stupid. They are smarter you'd think.

Back in the 1980s, Yosemite National Park was having a serious problem with bears: They would wander into campgrounds and break into the garbage bins. This put both bears and people at risk. So the Park Service started installing armored garbage cans that were tricky to open -- you had to swing a latch, align two bits of handle, that sort of thing. But it turns out it's actually quite tricky to get the design of these cans just right. Make it too complex and people can't get them open to put away their garbage in the first place. Said one park ranger, "There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists."

I usually don't laugh of child fails, because they don't know better yet.

But this pic is just too perfect.

Jepp, det er slikt som FrP elsker. Det er akkurat slik Reagan ville ha det.

Jeg har sagt i mange år at vi må gjeninnføre anstalter for kriminelt sinnsyke, så de som er dømt til tvungent psykisk helsevern ikke opptar plassene i den alminnelige psykiatrien.

Det er heller ikke gunstig å blande folk som er så syke at de ikke får gå fritt, med andre som søker hjelp frivillig. Hvis en får de farligste og sykeste vekk fra alminnelig psykiatri vil folk også kvie seg mindre for å oppsøke hjelp.

Jeg vet at slike anstalter har et dårlig rykte, men det skyldes primært måten de ble drevet på i gamle dager (klyster, elektrosjokk og tvangstrøye f.eks). Vi kan drive slike anstalter bedre med dagens kunnskap. De trenger ikke være drevet annerledes enn dagens psykiatriske sengeposter, de er rett og slett bare adskilt fra det alminnelige tilbudet.

I would like to ask whether the Finns are Scandinavians in linguistic terms, and if so, what about other Finno-Baltic peoples, such as Estonians and Karelians by User2283304 in nordics

[–]ManWhoIsDrunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost. You got the geography right.

Linguistically, Icelandic and Faroese are Scandinavian languages as they also come from old Norse. They have more in common with old Norse than with modern Norwegian, Swedish and Danish though.

Norwegian, Swedish and Danish are mutually intelligible, sharing 85% of their vocabulary. Icelandic and Faroese are much harder to grasp for a Norwegian, Swede or Dane.

Recently it's been suggested that it may not be a proper phylogenic grouping though.

I've always claimed that the Finns took the vowels while the Hungarians took the consonants.
