Norwegian foundation day.

#1

Today (the 17th of May) is basically like 4th of July to Americans.

Except instead of shooting fireworks at the sky at night, every single children school creates a giant “train” of people with a Corps (which I hope google translate isn’t joking with me to translate) behind them, gathering people more people as they go. Everyone is singing, blowing in annoying plastic whistles and yelling “Hurra!” and “Gratulerer med dagen”. This happens from 7am to about 11 - 12am.

After that they meet and eat hot dogs and ice cream. After a successful attempt on waking everyone up early in the morning on a holiday.

Discuss this “magnificent” day if you care.

I care about this as much as you care about July 4th.

#3

yeah, we have lots of corpses behind us :stuck_out_tongue:
but basically its musicians playing drums n stuff

#4

do you have weird racist elves or is that just christmas and probably a different country

#5

To my knowledge that would be a different country. But one should always be on a lookout for racist elves.

Oh, and grats to us.
