Walking the thin line

What Went Down:
Iceland's demons were high on lava-bananas and started pissing off Faroe Island's wasps (gifts from Denmark), which resulted in Iceland running away from Faroe because he was commanding the things like the Wicked Witch of the West and her flying monkeys. In desperation Iceland swiped Finland's bike, only for Finland to chase him and hop on the back to retrieve it from the thief. After being whacked on the head with the gun a bit Iceland (with some pleading) convinced Finland to fire backward at Faroes, who was now being assisted by Aland simply because Finland was there and he doesn't really NEED a reason to attack Finland but usually takes what he can get.

America: Takes out phone to record.
Main Three: Used to this shit by now.

In Finland there is a few etiquette rules for jaywalking
1. If you see a child don't jaywalk, so the child wont pick up your nasty habits.
2. Wait till all the cars, bikers and cyclists have passed, otherwise your just having a death wish.
3. Less people there are in lights more OK it is, because some stupid people start to follow and gets hit (essentially same as N.1).
4. Make sure there is no police around, they give you a ticket.

@MrSaukko Same here except for number 1 and usually cyclist and pedestrians Jaywalk.Worse offenders for Jay walkers are senior citizens and Students in the afternoon after 2pm for secondary schools, around 1 pm for morning session pupils in Primary school or around 6 to 630 for the afternoon session pupils especially if the pupils are with their maids.(Most primary schools in Singapore Practice a double session system one morning session and one afternoon session.)

Nobody will exactly know whether Iceland and Finland were good men or bad men or even what they were actually doing... all that matters is that two stood against many! That's what's important!!

@Losrandir and if noone listens, then to hell with them

@Losrandir

Valor pleases you, Humon. So grant me one request. Grant me a comic about Swedish volunteers in the Winter war! And if you do not read these comments... Then good for you!

HAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - Indians

Please make Iceland/Finland on the bike a avatar, I need it in my life.

Scandinavians rarely jaywalk? obviously you've mevver been to Göteborg/Gothenburg then. Last I was there every single person just walked over even when they shouldn't. It was madness, I tell you!

@CmndrHurricane Yeah, everyone jaywalk in Gothenburg, but I think that's why everyone who doesn't drive in Gothenburg every day says it's a nightmare to drive in the city.

@CmndrHurricane and Aarhus, Denmark is the same. If there is not a car in sight, you cross.

@CmndrHurricane
Same goes for Bergen. Here we jaywalk all the time. Even if we see a car driving when it's red for walk, many still just scoot over to the other side before the car comes over.

I... kind of want a comic explaining what Iceland and Finland were doing... xD

@OverTheMoon Iceland is apparently a huge fan of extreme sports, so it would surprise me they were doing something that was risking their lives.

@Mikhails like taking my chocolate?

@OverTheMoon summertime biathlon?

I Jaywalk when it's obvious I can make it in time with plenty of time to spare.

I feel like a criminal every single time.

In Russia we have a saying : Pedestrians are of two types : Quick and the Dead.

Actually, Norway would have crossed if there was no car in sight. It is legal for pedestrians in Norway to cross during the red man signal if there are no cars coming toward the crossing. I think the only way to get fined for jaywalking in Norway, is to run out in front of cars.
i've never heard of anyone getting fined for it though, so the chance of getting caught I think is close to zero.

@Baldur
Ah, truly a civilized country then. In Montréal, there are tons of traffic lights, so when walking in the city, before crossing on the red, you not only have to check for cars, but also for police, because the Montréal police loves giving tickets to pedestrians crossing on the red light, even if there is no car in sight and the crossing is less than 10 meters.

@simval That sucks. For a long time I wasn't even aware it was a crime to do so in other countries. I've done this in nearly all countries in Europe I've been to, so you can say I've been on a crime spree across Europe.

I really don't see the point in standing around like a chump for minutes when there are no cars.

@Baldur
Here we cross if there aren't cars anywhere. But if there's no cars coming down the street we wanna cross at an intersection or such, we still wait until the pedestrian light's green.

We of course cross when there's no cars and traffic lights.
