At ~high school graduation we sign "Enjoy your youth now since you're gonna die soon anyway".

It's a theme.

Don't even start with Finnish Christmas songs. (Fortunately untranslateable.)

"Hei tonttu-ukot hyppikaa. Hetken kestaa elama, ja sekin synkkaa ja pimeaa."

You go on and translate that, I already got depressed.

Memes don't have to be visual, you know.

Anyways, themes and rhemes don't always beget memes.

Now I sound like a negative nancy reagan when I'm not really.

I can't, now I'm depressed too.

Our graduation song, originally a Latin drinking song.
Our Christmas song, originally a Swedish drinking song.
Our national hymn, a rush job from a German drinking song.

Goes to show what a practical people we are. Near my summer place I see a site where archeologists figured out there's been some 8500 years of continuous settlement. No idea who they were, but who wanted to be here anyway? So it's probably us. Sorry.

This is the small country syndrome I suffer from at every other month, pay no attention. Mrazek's Vengeance can fill you in for Czechoslovakia that is no more but was exemplary in the '30s. (No no no politics, I know.)

"Yes."
"You drink on Christmas?"
"Oh, yes."

Ah but that was 20 years ago.

Now it's all fitness and lifestyle and health.

Kids these days.

It's not even fashionable to get shitfaced any more. I rememeber it was something between no-brainer and a national sport. Pshaw, I say.

I mean, it's not like this mug is going to sell much lingerie to the more discerning ladies no matter how much I tried:

He/she (pronoun?) looks ready to kill both France and Belgium just over some perceived slight like an EU.

I have followed Formula 1, where the Monaco GP is the event of the season. For the longest time I faultily thought that the then-successor (nowadays the monarch of Monaco) Prince Albert always appearing at the event was the originator of the name. He used to be a party prince always on the tabloids.

I one hundred percent believed it of him that at some time earlier paparazzi pics with pierced pecker had been published of him. Hence, "prince albert".

Topical: a woman is not prefectly happy with the Christmas tree lamp she bought from Ikea.
