Posted by: crossgirl | 11:53 AM on April 26, 2007

is someone willing to supply description? (IT police)

Posted by: mm | 11:53 AM on April 26, 2007

mm - yes.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 11:55 AM on April 26, 2007

That is just wrong..... oh, and HUH?????

Posted by: Bãrön vønKlyff | 11:57 AM on April 26, 2007

LMAO that is FUNNY!!

What's great is that those people probably have NO clue as to what he's saying about them.

Posted by: Siouxie | 11:58 AM on April 26, 2007

Thanks, Annie, preshadit.

Posted by: mm | 11:59 AM on April 26, 2007

mm - I can't vouch for the song (no audio here), but it's a guy in a mall getting people to dance with him and his Swedish flag. Pretty well done, especially the editing.(sorry, film major here)

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 12:00 PM on April 26, 2007

mm, it's what Annie said and he's describing those people as party animals, dominatrix, gay...in English (so they're probably unaware of what he's saying).

Posted by: Siouxie | 12:03 PM on April 26, 2007

oh, *SNORK*
TYVM Annie & Sioux

Posted by: mm | 12:05 PM on April 26, 2007

Exemplar of people with WAY TOO MUCH TIME on their hands.

Oh, wait. I'm on the blog, aren't I? Shoot.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 12:09 PM on April 26, 2007

I kept waiting for the participants to waive their hands in the air. Almost like they just didn't care.

Remember kids, don't try this at home. S A F T E Y dance.

Cancels the salad I was planning on having with my lunch... .

Posted by: jon | 12:11 PM on April 26, 2007

Do you think the guy even understands what he's talking about?

Posted by: Val | 12:17 PM on April 26, 2007

I uh, I don't know what to say. Swedish people certainly seem much nicer than me. If someone came up to me and started babbling like that in Swedish, I would kill him or at least scream at him.

Posted by: Edgar Greenberg | 12:19 PM on April 26, 2007

(Thanks to Claire Martin)?

*wonders if Claire's made reservations already*

Siouxie et al, you'd be surprised how many Swedes understand English ...

Posted by: kibby F5™ | 12:24 PM on April 26, 2007

Swedish meatball.

Posted by: Cheesewiz | 12:25 PM on April 26, 2007

*snork* @ Jon. Just substitute some wild vegetables instead.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 12:28 PM on April 26, 2007

1. I am going to Sweden in two weeks. ISIANMTU
2. Most Swedes speak better English than, say, your average Arkansan... but they also have EXCELLENT senses of humor.
3. Bleh. Always late to the party.

Posted by: Clean Hands | 12:33 PM on April 26, 2007

haha! stört roligt! och jag blir alltid lika patriotisk när jag ser sådant här
va äre för jävla dräggmusik
nej nu räcker det.. VAD FAN HAR HAN GJORT AV MUSTASCHEN!?

Posted by: a different dave | 12:38 PM on April 26, 2007

*stands*

I stand corrected ;-)

Posted by: Siouxie | 12:39 PM on April 26, 2007

Unless these Swedes are familiar with the Urb@n Dictionary, I'll bet they don't know what the party dude is saying no matter how good their English is.

Warning, BTW, several "MF"s in there.

Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 12:41 PM on April 26, 2007

Er, no thanks, DiffDave. LOL

Posted by: Clean Hands | 12:44 PM on April 26, 2007

My daughter was dating a seemingly nice boy from Sweden...until he broke up with her.

Now all Swedish people give pond scum a bad name.

Posted by: Texas | 12:50 PM on April 26, 2007

diffDave, I have no idea what he did to his mustache.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 12:51 PM on April 26, 2007

To underscore what's already been said, every Swede I have ever encountered speaks better English than many American newscasters. Perky or not.

(OT Pssst: Woot-Off currently underway!)

Posted by: WriterDude | 01:06 PM on April 26, 2007

haha! rush funny! and self am becoming always equal patriotic when I see such here va äre for jävla dräggmusik nos now reaches the. WHAT DEVIL Has he DONE OF Moustache!?

Stupid online translators, now I am more confused than I was before...

Posted by: tweetywill | 01:06 PM on April 26, 2007

tweety - you must've used the same one I did. LOL.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 01:11 PM on April 26, 2007

AAACCKK WD, why didn't you say soon earlier - have I missed any crap?

Posted by: sthnbelle | 01:14 PM on April 26, 2007

that should have been "Say SO", not soon - see, you got me all worked up.

Posted by: sthnbelle | 01:19 PM on April 26, 2007

Just found out then, sthnbelle. Working swing shift has me in a permanent state of LTTG, sorry. Have not seen any BOCs.

Posted by: WriterDude | 01:21 PM on April 26, 2007

sthnbelle, re your 1:19 post: I am humbly honored. ;-)

Posted by: WriterDude | 01:24 PM on April 26, 2007

Understood. I usually check first thing in the AM, but didn't this morning. I think I was more caught up in getting LOST info.

Posted by: sthnbelle | 01:25 PM on April 26, 2007

Laugh Out Loud! It's obvious he said something to them in Swedish that meant something entirely different than what he was saying in English!

Posted by: Bethie | 01:31 PM on April 26, 2007

i'll see if i can work it in after my lunch in latvia's leggings, dinner in denmark's dirndl, and before my nightcap in norway's nightie...

Posted by: insomniac | 01:40 PM on April 26, 2007

I can't wait to see the copycat video where some knucklehead tries the same thing in say, NYC. They will hand him his cojones for breakfast. :)
*waits patiently*

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 01:40 PM on April 26, 2007

...and teatime in-Som's-knee-act.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 01:42 PM on April 26, 2007

Can someone translate for me?

"ISIANMTU"

I know I should know it but there it is, I don't.

Posted by: Cheesewiz | 01:44 PM on April 26, 2007

Cute, Annie.

DeskDiva:

Thanks. Sometimes the most obvious...

Posted by: Cheesewiz | 02:04 PM on April 26, 2007

MOOOOOO-OM! Diva and Hammie are figting again!

Posted by: mm | 02:07 PM on April 26, 2007

fighting, even

Posted by: mm | 02:07 PM on April 26, 2007

Cheese et al - there's a link to me & my kind at the top left of this page.

Posted by: Annie Gram | 02:08 PM on April 26, 2007

Hammie, I am not. You can ask Dave. So there. :-P

Humph. *grumbles* See if I let you put a camera in my shower....

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:08 PM on April 26, 2007

*pinches mm*

Tattletale!

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:10 PM on April 26, 2007

Umm, DD, I hate to break this to you...

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 02:10 PM on April 26, 2007

WHAT?

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:11 PM on April 26, 2007

Speaking of videos, here's one from 1967, "Stop, Look & Listen" at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBatldwJu_Q (I wish I knew how to do that hotlink thingy)
I don't quite get the wierd ending, but it'll chew up about 8 minutes of your day.

Posted by: a different dave | 02:16 PM on April 26, 2007

Darn!! I thought it said ...in Miss Sweden's pants.

Posted by: blurk | 02:16 PM on April 26, 2007

figure ;-P

hola, blurkster...

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:18 PM on April 26, 2007

blurkieeeee!
A REAL Air guy would know that Miss Sweden never wears pants.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:19 PM on April 26, 2007

HEY there, blue eyes! Nice to see you. :)

I'm sure Miss Sweden will be pleased to note your interest, but it looks like Ted beat you to it. Oh, well. There's always me!

*winks*

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:20 PM on April 26, 2007

Blurk!

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 02:20 PM on April 26, 2007

Hey, Sioux!!!

Annie, if that's the case, I'm headed to Sweden.

Posted by: blurk | 02:22 PM on April 26, 2007

Don't play dumb, blurkie. Expand your repetoire.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:29 PM on April 26, 2007

Now, now kiddies, let's all put our differences aside and try to get along, is that too much to ask?

It took me two and a half friggin' hours to get home. Tomorrow is Freedom day to celebrate the anniversary of the first truly democratic election in 1994. Tuesday is International Workers Day (1st May), the result is that more than half the country has taken Monday off to have a 5 day weekend. In amongst all the traffic chaos 2 semis jackknifed on 2 of the major freeways, (2 seperate accidents). Fun, fun, fun.

*clutches 3rd slug of Chivas Regal*

Posted by: Mot the Hoople | 02:29 PM on April 26, 2007

Diva, did I read sumpthin' up there about cameras in showers?
Sounds like I was missin' a helluva party.

Posted by: blurk | 02:31 PM on April 26, 2007

You have a lot of catching up to do, blurk.


Mot, thanks I'll drink to that...and just about anything else actually ;-)

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:32 PM on April 26, 2007

Annie, expand my whut?!

Oh...um...nevermind.

Sure is a nice day out.

*walks away whistling*

Posted by: blurk | 02:33 PM on April 26, 2007

Mot - you catching the irony of being stuck in traffic because of Freedom Day and Workers Day?

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:33 PM on April 26, 2007

Isn't everyday Worker's Day?

Seems that's like all I ever get done anyway.

Posted by: blurk | 02:35 PM on April 26, 2007

*Ponders drinking Chivas during traffic jams*

*Well, I could get a hamster water bottle (with tube)and attach it to the window...*

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 02:38 PM on April 26, 2007

blurk, you'll really have to ask Hammie about that. He's the one with all the footage. We gals just take the showers...when we feel a little too dirty, you know? ;)

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:38 PM on April 26, 2007

Hammie, pass the hamster bottle...and said footage.
I'm thirsty and...uh...whutever.

Posted by: blurk | 02:41 PM on April 26, 2007

You'all notice how hammie's trying to change the subject from shower cams to drinking Chivas in traffic.

Posted by: Mot the Hoople | 02:41 PM on April 26, 2007

blurk, did they finally install the computer in your new office??

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:42 PM on April 26, 2007

Mot, you speak as if they're mutually exclusive.

Posted by: blurk | 02:43 PM on April 26, 2007

He just doesn't wanna share the film.

Next time I hit the shower, would one o' y'all help me wash my back?

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:44 PM on April 26, 2007

Yes, Siouxie, it's in. But I'm at home right now. Gotta drive up to Vaughn and pick up half a beef.
Steaks on the grill at my house tonight!!!

Posted by: blurk | 02:45 PM on April 26, 2007

Annie, now that you mention it, it does seem a bit ironical.

Posted by: Mot the Hoople | 02:45 PM on April 26, 2007

Speak for yourself, DD...there's NO camera in MY shower. (no matter what Hammie saays).

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:46 PM on April 26, 2007

Hiya Blurk ltns :)

Posted by: DavetheRed | 02:46 PM on April 26, 2007

Sioux, you're not s'posed to lie to your friends.

Posted by: blurk | 02:47 PM on April 26, 2007

Ooh! Steak is my favorite...thick and juicy! Thanks for the invite.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:48 PM on April 26, 2007

Sooz, evidence exists, that's all I'm saying.

Posted by: Mot the Hoople | 02:49 PM on April 26, 2007

If you say so, Siouxie...

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 02:49 PM on April 26, 2007

Well, I think NT is actually the one who put it in my shower just to get it out of hers.

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:50 PM on April 26, 2007

She's not lying. They had to move the camera to over the tub. Less water damage that way.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:50 PM on April 26, 2007

Besides, if the camera was in there, there'd be no room for the water slide.
btw - Stevie W told me this.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:52 PM on April 26, 2007

Hey! I just realized blurk invited us all to a party on a thread titled, "YOU ARE INVITED TO THE PARTY!" Whatta coinkydink!

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:52 PM on April 26, 2007

I know there's one in there somewhere 'cause I...oops...next subject please.

Posted by: blurk | 02:52 PM on April 26, 2007

blurk, weren't you editing the footage...and the toeage...that's what Stevie W said.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 02:53 PM on April 26, 2007

Maybe I'll change my name to Sweden.

Posted by: blurk | 02:54 PM on April 26, 2007

*tosses Annie a v*

Posted by: DeskDiva | 02:55 PM on April 26, 2007

HEY!! blurk!!

(psssst, Annie?? it's just trampoline now...got rid of the slide after that little mishap with the soap and the showerhead...ouchie!)

Posted by: Siouxie | 02:55 PM on April 26, 2007

That's zackly what I was doin', Annie.
Strickly perfessional o'course.

Posted by: blurk | 02:56 PM on April 26, 2007

Mr. Blurk? That name is already taken.

Now remember! Party in MY pants!!! You're all invited!

Posted by: Sweden | 02:58 PM on April 26, 2007

*will have to *SMACK* Stevie for tellin'*

Posted by: Siouxie | 03:00 PM on April 26, 2007

Well Gang, I gotta get up there and pick up that beef.

Back later.

Posted by: blurk | 03:02 PM on April 26, 2007

blurk, you did tell me you WERE a pro...I shoulda asked what KIND!

oh and Annie..it's toevage ;-P

Posted by: Siouxie | 03:03 PM on April 26, 2007

See ya, blurk! I'll be there in time for dinner.... :)

Posted by: DeskDiva | 03:03 PM on April 26, 2007

I'll wait for dessert ;-P

pa dum pum!

Posted by: Siouxie | 03:05 PM on April 26, 2007

You'll be dessert!

Posted by: ScottMGS | 03:35 PM on April 26, 2007

*blushes*

Posted by: Siouxie | 03:46 PM on April 26, 2007

Ooh! (Not "oops".) I did it again.

Posted by: ScottMGS | 04:17 PM on April 26, 2007

You're very good at that sort of thing, Scott. Quite talented, in fact....

*fans self*
