          I must know more

          Either I’m hoping I’m gonna learn about a strange tradition or that I’m about to read a load of carefully crafted bullshit to seem like the former.

          Either way I’m happy, so tell me more about your traditional festively microwaved sausages

            We take the korv, it’s red skin colored with falu rödfärg, and it is microwaved to just before it cracks open. After that we cut the skin and put on mustard and ketchup. It is served with whole grilled onion and Pyssling Pudding. A mix of lime jell-o and chocolate.

              Served with […] Pyssling Pudding. A mix of lime jell-o and chocolate.

              What in the hell, this clearly goes much deeper than I imagined

              Such a shame that they ran out of ideas after they moved apartments and were never able to step away from the kitchen smashing with viking weaponry running joke. They were good dudes. I still have their apron lying around.

          How classic is it? Because microwaves have not really been around for that long.

    The good old Swedish tradition of eating Möbius Sausage on Christmas.

    This looks suspiciously similar to human skin. Am I just drunk?

      We’ve pretty much adjusted to the Disney censoring but the checkered paint is still desired.

        Checkered paint is creating unrealistic expectations on regular paint, should be banned imo.

        Why is Disney censoring stuff in Sweden? Is it because Donald wears no pants?

          It’s just some racist imagery. It doesn’t add much to the program but some people think it has high historic relevance. It’s just old time Disney being old time Disney. These days they don’t want to air the show with that imagery because it doesn’t fit their values. That’s their choice and always has been.
