The more you know.

Fun facts:

In Britain, the dental hygiene system is very poor. This, in addition to a British love of custard, makes for very yellow teeth. This is why British humor is more of the ironic kind rather than slapstick so as to encourage a playful sneer and deter toothy laughs.

In Sweden, about 10% of the population is called Inga. Some might think this confusing, but considering the fact that Sweden is very sexually emancipated and sleeping around is not uncommon, it is rather an advantage to be able to pick two girlfriends with the same name so as to avoid calling the wrong name mid-coitus.

The Caribbean islands are part of North America. One of these islands is called Guadeloupe.

"Despite the plentiful flow of rum there you will seldom see drunk locals. Nor is the male population high often, like [you would see] on many other Caribbean islands; you will feel safe at night." (swedish original highlighted below)

I wish I knew what this Gunnar Andersson looked like. I'd like to put a face to the name of the person that compresses the world into such a neat, accessible portion. Unfortunately there are many Gunnar Anderssons out there on google's image search, and to tell you the truth, I do not have the time to try find any distinguishing features. Nor do I have time to make a composite picture of all the Gunnar Anderssons out there. So for the sake of simplicity, I found a picture that will just have to do for the time being.



I suppose I don't have to point out that this is not the actual Gunnar Andersson.

I mean, it's just an ass.
