Death Stranding is very influenced by Scandinavia. The landscape is based on Iceland, the twins are named after Swedish craters, Cliff is played by a Danish actor, Cliff's last name, Unger, means Children in most of the Scandinavian languages, and funnily enough, the main character's last name, Stand, also means Beach in the Scandinavian languages.

Wouldn't call that a waste of time

Wouldn't call that a waste of time

Some of the comments on my last comic reminded me that I've been meaning to make a comic about this Australian saying. When used like this it basically means "I'm not here to waste time"

According to a fair few Swedes I've talked to this is a thing about Danes that really pisses them off, and it's even funnier because few Danes know about it.

At some point England will have to ask himself if it was something about his parenting that made his kids turn out this way.

The boat is being floated

This is an honest concern for some people, and all I can say is, hey whatever floats your boat.
Brits have quite the fascination with dogging. And by that I mean, pay attention and you'll notice how often it shows up in British shows and movies.

Picking and choosing

Picking and choosing

It's a very common reaction in the Nordic countries to just dismiss Iceland's place on lists because they are so few people. I was reminded of this when I overheard two people talk about this list and one of them said "We have more people in our capital than they have people in their whole country. Of course it's easy to keep a place like that safe". Sweden had much the same reaction when Iceland was higher up on the list than them regarding gender equality. It's just a way for the rest of the Nordic countries to bump ourselves further up positive lists.
