Royd 0 #26 December 8, 2006 QuoteI don't consider myself to be Swedish-American, but I do have pickled herring, homemade sausage, lots of cookies, and glug at Christmas. It's a way to make it special for our family. Who am I do call someone else's way silly?You're not demanding a weeklong holiday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #27 December 8, 2006 QuoteThe idea of bathing once a month whether you need it or not. I've never really taken to the idea of a bath where you rub oil all over your body and then scrape it off with sticks. But since it is Euro, it must be good. Edit: but at least there was the Vomitarium. Everybody can enjoy that. ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #29 December 8, 2006 Quotemy ancestors (grandparents and great grandparents) came from Sweden to the US. A querter of mine did, and I celebrate it by applying large doses of sunscreen when I go outside. I celebrate my Irish heritage by my love of alcohol. I celbrate my English heritage by looking down on everyone else and keeping the Irish parts of me oppressed. I think that my burps and farts is the Irish part of me bombing the English part. So what if innocent bystanders face the consequences? My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
