These are all the questions my girlfriend asks me all the time and I give her the deer-in-the-headlights look.
I really need her in my life lol

Wait until you hear about banks lol
They open after everyone’s at work and close before anyone finishes work
Because fuck you, that’s why
Try Norway. Our electric companies were sold to private investors who sold our electricity to the EU, and then they sold too much so they had to buy it back at exorbitant prices and the public is footing the bill for their dumbassery.
It’s not as bad as it was a year ago but it’s still about 15 times more expensive than it was just 4 years ago.
Kind of like how I unload an entire can of bug spray at the wasp that came into my house.
As a European this is my only frame of reference.
In Europe you can usually download an app for the public transit in that specific country/city. However, Google Maps is the only one that will show you how to get to a specific address (not just the train/bus station).
Sometimes I look at pictures of puffins in flight because they look so ridiculous lol
That is actually a lot closer to the Icelandic one, except the F sounds more like a V and -röst rhymes with bust.
As an Icelander, the pronounciations of the nordic names in Marvel movies crack me up. Especially Bifrost (which they pronounce “bi-frost” instead of 'bif-rost", and Laufey (pronounced very differently, also a decidedly female name).
I went on a 2 week holiday earlier this year and I barely took a single picture lol
That’s definitely the case since I can’t read Chinese lol
That’s super interesting! I barely know any Chinese and probably just assumed the characters were for language instead of numbers.
The public transit system used arabic numbers (maybe as well as the Chinese characters?), so at least that was easy to navigate lol
When I went to China about 5 years ago, all the numbers were Arabic numbers. Not sure if this is a regional thing, or if this is a more recent development.
Idk, I feel like Lemmy has way more dank memes than Reddit. Also more boomer memes.
I’m not at all a horror fan, but I absolutely love The Shining. There’s so many easter eggs and details and hidden symbolism you could absolutely get lost in.
A catapult can buy many peanuts
That’s perfectly fine, I use soap because I eat meat and my gf is vegetarian so I don’t want to leave any grease. Also I find soap just makes it a bit easier to clean.
“Band” in this context means united. “Bandalag” means the same as “förbund” in Swedish, so yes you’re basically correct.
It’s actually “Bandaríska borgarastríðið”. “Bandaríkin” is our word for the United States, “borgari” means citizen and “stríð” means war. So yes our word for civil war literally translates to “citizens’ war” since all the participants are citizens of the same nation. Hälsningar från en Isländing i Norge
I vape and I think these disposable vapes are an obscene waste that should not exist. Just get a decent mod, it’s cheaper in the long run anyway
