Just what we needed, another pointless carbon-guzzling ride to amuse the undeserving rich.

130 km/h (or 80 mph) seems to be the international consensus on what a maximum safe speed is on a well-maintained modern highway.

Those were not vacation days, just days where they could till their own fields instead of their lord’s. For most people life then was full of backbreaking labour, illiteracy, disease and the constant looming threat of starvation. There is no need to romanticise feudalism.

Møgsvin (filth-pig), used as an insult similar to “asshole” or for someone who is literally filthy or messy.

Ikke den hurtigste knallert på havnen (not the fastest moped on the docks), used to describe someone who is stupid.

Pis mig i øret (piss in my ear), similar meaning as “fuck off”.

Svagpisser (weak-pisser), for someone who is squeamish.

Pikhud på fingrene (cock-skin on your fingers), for someone who is squeamish about manual labour or about touching hot objects.

Skidespræller (shitkicker), someone who is annoying and unserious.

Bonderøv (peasant-ass), someone who comes off as rural or in a more broader sense someone who is uncool or uncultured.

Klaphat (clap hat), synonyms with idiot. Refers to a type of hat worn by football fans in the 1980’s featuring a pair of stuffed hands that will clap together when the weather pulls a string.

Et moderne reboot af Olsenbanden ville have en masse materiale at arbejde med. Det moderne erhvervslivs opblæste disruption-hype og finansielle fiksfakserier vil sagtens kunne skabe en ny version af Hallandsen. Den moderne Jensen vil passe perfekt ind i new public management. Og så vil der kunne være meget sjov i at lade de moderne Kjeld og Yvonne have mellemøstlig baggrund. De skal i hvert fald ikke bo i Valby længere, for det er blevet for dyrt. Måske skal den røde kuffert indeholde en harddisk med bitcoins?

A different version of the same rant can be translated to:

It’s the same thing every time! You have a plan, a brilliant plan! And then your surrounded by dogheads and deadbeats, lousy amateurs, miserable hacks, ridiculous shitkickers. Incompetent assholes, impotent mush peasants and social democrats!

Another great quote is made by Jensen, the burnt-out detective tasked with catching Egon and his gang. His younger and more naive colleague remarks that “crime doesn’t pay” which prompts Jensen to give the following answer:

Oh God! My dear, dear young friend, you are terribly mistaken. Believe me, I’ve been on the force for more than 25 years, and I know what I’m talking about. Duty carries its own reward, but it’s modest. Integrity is beautiful, but meager. Justice is proud, but one-eyed. Love is sweet, but costly. Friendship and camaraderie, those are good to look back on in your old age. But the only thing that pays, that’s crime!

Jensen makes a lot of remarks such as “when the really big criminals arrives the only thing the police can do is to offer them protection”.

There is a healthy and honest way to appreciate communism, Russia, the CCP and even DPRK.

Please tell us more about those healthy and honest “anti-authoritarian” non-tankie communists. Who are they and what political results have they made?

Millions might have died but a few arms dealers made a lot of money so who can really say if the wars were good or bad?

There’s a reason why they’re kidnapping men off the streets and press-ganging them to fight for the Kiev regime. The slava ukraini epic marvel stuff is not making enough people volunteer to go die in a minefield.

Ukraine good, Russia bad. It follows that these Ukrainians doing bad stuff are in fact Russians.

It’s a non-falsifiable orthodoxy that turns evidence on its head until it fits the pre-conceived narrative.

For what it’s worth, most of the Ukraine flags that people put up in my city when the war started has been taken down months ago.

Ukraine under his leadership has been acting up to the highest ethical ideals of the EU.

I agree with this sentence but I think we have very different ideas of what the “ethical ideals of the EU” are.

The neural network was told to make Asian people but it really wanted to make white people.

The upper class in Denmark are just as big piss babies about paying their taxes as they are anywhere else. Ordinary Danes might like to say they’re happy to pay taxes but in reality few of them would pass the opportunity to have their car fixed off the books or to buy beer in Germany to avoid the Danish alcohol tax.

Virgin Putin

• Let’s Prigo get away with an armed coup attempt
• Everybody laughs at him

Vs.

Chad Biden

• Has guy who wrote dumb threats against him online killed
• Strikes fear in the hearts of his enemies

I’ve heard nothing but bad things about American schools and they’re said to revoltingly underfunded especially in poor and non-white communities. Seen from an outside perspective it seems like all American schools do is multiple choice tests, bullying, pledge of allegiance, school shootings, eat hot chip and lie.

Austerity and culture war has consequences, one of them is that students are not given then education they need.

The average Dane is firmly convinced that Denmark is the most perfect place on earth, a paradise that the rest of the world can only dream of. It follows that any reasonable person who’s not already a Dane must have a desire to become one. If they don’t, there must either be something wrong with them or they simply haven’t heard enough about how good Denmark is.

Fun fact: Some places in Europe “bilingual” is used as an euphemism for students with middle eastern backgrounds. When used like this it carries lots of negative connotations and authorities try to limit the concentration of “bilingual” students at schools as they’re seen as the source of all kinds of trouble.
