I like the people, the culture, the art, the history, the nature, the president and his wife.
I dislike the government, the prime minister, the traitors and the idiots.
Icelanders all are, or that some of us are, eskimoes
Icelanders live in snowhouses
Iceland is covered with ice
Iceland has polar bears
Iceland is full of penguins
I do not understand threads with such titles. Humans beings come to the aid of any human being, being harassed by any human being, irregardless of appearances. Cowards who may not deserve the title...
Although they are often strong, as are the women, most Icelandic men look nothing like these athletes, nor are such sports popular here. Hardly anyone here is interested in Glíma.
What do you mean by first settler society? We are natives in our own land. We came here first. There was nobody else here. Iceland is situated in two continents.
Racism is not a "hot topic " here at all...In what country with real, serious problems to do with racism, would a mass rally ever be hosted in support of a couple of "coloured" individuals who got...
"Melting pot" may not be the right term to have picked. By "melting pot" I do not mean racial, but rather cultural melting pot, ending in our destruction. I cannot see many people, of any origin, in...
I believe the Finnish themselves should have the last word on this, and that they themselves are far better judges of their own identity than anyone else and that other people should not impose an...
A person who does not speak French, was not born in France and has never lived in France, or had deep immersion in French culture, cannot claim to be French, no matter how French his grandfather was,...
Americans in general, though with exceptions, are very disrespectful of any European culture. You can hear it from the way they will say "I am 1/4 Swedish, 1/4 Polish, 1/2 French", in the very SAME...
I am equally disinterested in calling myself "white" as I am "mammal". I am someone proud of and deeply rooted in their own culture, not some kind of animal. There is a reason for why no Japanese man...
The answer to your question is simply: Yes. In the true and honorable sense of the word race, which does not simply, or even essentially, imply "breed" (which is just as well, as we are not just...
Not true. I simply have a great pride in my own people and a real historical awareness of them, as well as great knowledge about them. Those who lack this, tend to identify with such insulting...
Try the Swedish Smörgåsbord.
Learn to be a great conversationalist. Like any skill, it comes with practice. If you are too nervous to speak to beautiful young girls, use every opportunity to make small talk with non-threatening...
Degrade themselves and their cultures by identifying with a silly, fictional group called "white people". There are English people, there are Bavarian people and there are Flemish people and Faroe...
I think that if you do not honor and respect every single part of yourself and where you come from, you cannot be a whole and complete person. This is your grandmother, so you have to love her and be...
This says nothing, because such statistics are often misleading. Statistics alone are never able to tell the truth, you need to look beyond them, if you wish to find it. Many children in my country...
Thanks for the advice. I am a bit puzzled about the last part though, the link goes to a photo of some black man,.. who seems to be a frequent cause for this type of illness. LOL :D
Thanks everyone. You have been very kind. I do have quite a healthy lifestyle actually, but it can be improved and I am trying out a lot of different things.
You are right! :) Only misconception I have to correct regarding Icelandic women is all of us being particularly blond. Here is a typical Icelandic woman. Her real haircolour is a bit darker, most...
One more misconception I forgot to address. Rotten shark is hardly consumed at all here. Most people who do eat it do so only once a year, during "Þorrablót" meaning "blot", a pagan kind of ceremony,...
Eriksson comes from "the son of Erik" (or Eiríkur), since originally Nordic people did not have last names at all, if your fathers first name war Erik, you would be Eriksson.
Eric the Reds real...
Trust me, any random people, selected by a pure chance, some kind of lottery system, to run things in stead of those traitors, would do a far better job. Various measures are already being taken to...
