Cupcake Tragedy

Cupcake Tragedy

A fair few Danish people responded to Trish Regans comments on Denmark, and I noticed that not a single one of them could find a proper cupcake to use in their video. They were all like "Damn you Trish! Why must you remind me that I can't get a cupcake anywhere!?"

Needy Dragon

Needy Dragon

Some buildings in Hong Kong have holes in them because people believe dragons need to pass though. No disrespect to Hong Kong's dragons, but I can just imagine how annoying it'd be to have dragons mess up your city if you don't make holes in your buildings for them.

Getting there fast

Getting there fast

It's so popular for young men in Saudi Arabia to do crazy car stunts that it has become the no. 1 reason for early deaths, or "lost years". In all other countries it's things like diseases, crime, stroke, war and heart disease.

Free Greenland

Free Greenland

Some time ago it was very fashionable to fight for Tibet, but China was like a rock, so shortly thereafter people suddenly started yelling the same slogans but about Greenland and people felt a bit confused. Let's just say the modern day situation between Denmark and Greenland is different than China/Tibet. They have home rule, meaning they pretty much function as a independent country, and they get huge sums of money from Denmark to keep the country running and get it back on it's feed after all the abuse they suffered under Denmark. If they become fully independent they'd lose the money, so for now they choose to stay part of Denmark until they figure something better out. They vote on whether they want to become independent every so often, but so far it has always been a no. But worry not, it will happen some day.

I was asked if I ever noticed how small and squiggly-lined the states in the East are compared to the huge mostly straight-lined states in the rest of the country.

There's all these stories about the Japanese football team cleaning their locker room before leaving and Japanese fans cleaning the stadium after games. Don't know how many of them are true, but one can hope.

Stumbled across a Finnish site selling mobile saunas. Finns will indeed bring/build saunas everywhere, even war zones.
