Oh noes, not the pretty little penguins. :.-(

Oh what the hell do I care, just don't hunt the emperor penguins. ;)

You should take a look at this site: Finland: The Foreigner's Guide to Finland

It is humorously done, there is gross exaggerations, over the top untruths and just plain idiocy. BUT, most of the things that sound most embarrassing and offending statements about finns are actually true, and it does give some actual true insight to finland that real guidebooks never touch.

At the rate I'm consuming milk, it'd be cheaper to buy a friggin' cow. :uhoh: :erm:

The only problem with that is the cost of upkeep :erm:

Depends on the size of you backyard... Cows are actually pretty cheap to keep...

What, I grew up on a farm ;)
 

Nudity in public
Unlike in US, for example, public nudity is perfectly normal in Finland. No one will stare at you, and no one is embarrassed, if you are nude. In the summertime, men and women will always be naked when swimming or taking sunbaths, in public beaches.

DAMN! Now, I'ves gots to visit.

Coffee
A fact: Finns drink more coffee than anyone else in the whole world! Finns drink coffee in the morning, they drink coffee at their workplace before working, they have at least two coffee breaks during workday, they drink coffee when they arrive home from work, they drink coffee in the evening. There are lots of people who drink 8 or more cups per day.
Damn, thats twice as many cups as I drink on a bad day. I try to limit myself to 2-3. Lately I have been averaging about 4. Although, my mom easily matches the average Finn.

Finnish Love
All Finnish women love foreign men. Without exception, foreign men are better, more polite, adorable, etc. than Finns, even - and especially - if the men are from "Macho" countries such as Greek or Brazil. To a Finnish woman, a foreign boyfriend or husband means great status. However, even if you are a foreign man, you don't have to worry about hordes of Finnish women chasing you - unless you meet them while they are drunk. Finnish women are similar to Finnish men: they never dare to hit on anyone if they are not drunk.
Things are lookin' better and better. :lol:

Ah, that was one of those gross exaggerations I mentioned ;)

Now these two are pretty much true. Although the latter is quite unflattering, and something only rare women would admit aloud. But true nonetheless... *shrug*
 


15 million!.

One of the highest winning lottery winners won a 400-500 million dollar jack pot. UNFORTUNATELY that guy was stupider then a brick. He lost several hundred thousand at a strip club which his car was broken into (he kept the money in the trunk) another several hundred thousand when he passed out drunk at a bar. He was mugged for like 50 thousand, then bought an expensive car and had it stolen (it was unlocked).

I was like 'dude doesn't sound stupid, dude sound like he want to have a REALLY good time.

Until I read that he kept the money in the trunk and that it was stolen...

Talk about having the IQ of a house-plant.
