It was so common for vikings to keep bears as pets that they were known as house bears. They were often allowed to just walk around like dogs, causing so much damage it eventually became illegal to keep bears in Iceland. Some royals were even crazy enough to keep polar bears.

Motherfu*king Nature

Thanks to climate change not only have the giant wasp species already living in Scandinavia started spreading but giant wasps from other parts of the world have started moving in.

I’ll never forget a few summers ago when I was taking the trash out. The dumpsters were covered in wasps but I thought “I’ll be quick. Don’t disrupt them and leave” when a wasp the size of a finger flew past my head! Since then they’ve been a stable of my summers and I hate it.

Old habits die hard

When most women got death sentences in the 1500’s and 1600’s for being witches in Norway, most Norwegian men got death sentences for incest. Isn’t history magical?
