Because all the other Finns are here, I’ll just push my two cents, or kopekc.
We Finns are a stubborn bunch.
We are living in a small country, but we are not very homogenous in culture.
Our highest culture is normally developed by abnormal guys.
We do everything opposite to what is told, we are always checking out “where’s the limit”.
Our natural resources, the only ones, are pure water and forest.
Finnish conclusion:
Let’s be biggest in the world in cellular telephones! And we are. (NOKIA).
When I emigrated to Russia 6 years ago, they wouldn’t let me in.
I learned the Norwegian language at the foot of Ural.
I like it here, because here are so many nuts, speaking so twisted Russian, that even I can understand them.
Almost all the men here are alcs and keeping the wife between the oven and the fist. That is why half of the woman are single.
As I said I like it here.
And Russia do not have any tabloids - yet.
The porn Star Henry saari is well hung, I’m not, but I have a long and powerful tongue. They say.
(This is maybe the reason I have so easy to learn laguages?)
Because it has sometimes been uncertain if I am a Finn, even in Finland because I swer in English and Russian, or am I something else, I put here a pure Finnish phrase i usually use:
“Periksi ei perkele anneta, ei nyt, eikä koskaan!!”
Someone else can translate it.
Anyhow, Finns has emigrated to many countries, and are always wanting back to the lakes and woods and hope they could forget everything else.
When they get drunk, they either speak in their cellular telephones or has just thrown it into the lake.
When they are sober they do the same.
Try to understand.
I can’t.
Not even myself, but I am not worried about that.
Just happy!
With my nowadays family, where the woman in the house speaks Russian in a 100 km/hour-mode and keeps me as people keeps a pet.
