satw-channel: Scandinavia and the World

Paris Syndrome is almost exclusively experienced by Japanese tourists in France.
It happens to about 20 people every year when they realize that Paris isn't as romantic and beautiful as they expected, the culture shock causing people to feel sick, anxious, dizzy and hallucinate. The problem even seems to be getting worse as more people from other East Asian countries get enough money to travel to Paris.
Apparently the only cure for this is to leave France and never return.

According to a fair few Swedes I've talked to this is a thing about Danes that really pisses them off, and it's even funnier because few Danes know about it.

Bedside Manners

I've been on my fair share of road trips with Brits, often as the only woman in the group, and I always thought it was sweet how the men would go out of their way to give me my privacy, even if the only privacy they could offer was letting me have my own bed while the rest of them lumped together on whatever was left.
I never asked for this and quite frankly it confused me the first few times because this isn't something I've experienced with Danish men, but they insisted and, well, it was very sweet.

Picking and choosing

It's a very common reaction in the Nordic countries to just dismiss Iceland's place on lists because they are so few people. I was reminded of this when I overheard two people talk about this list and one of them said "We have more people in our capital than they have people in their whole country. Of course it's easy to keep a place like that safe". Sweden had much the same reaction when Iceland was higher up on the list than them regarding gender equality. It's just a way for the rest of the Nordic countries to bump ourselves further up positive lists.

The first recorded meetings between Japan and westerners are actually kind of sweet.

The Japanese thought there was some secret to using firearms but the Portuguese were just like "It's easy! Stand straight and close one eye! Couldn't be easier!" but the Japanese still thought it was more complicated than that and assumed the Portuguese were talking philosophy. It took some back and forth to make them understand that it wasn't a difficult discipline to shoot a rifle.

Plan for summer: Post SATW; GET THUMBS

Posting the newest scandinavia and the world comic,called Scaninavian Design in hope of getting tons of thumbs. So because Admin asked for detailed descriptions, this particular comic strip is mostly about Kuwait who needed a new tower build. So Kuwait asks Denmark to make a model, Denmark is representing the famous architect Jørn Utzon, who also designed the Sydney Opera house. The Character Denmark is usually portraited wither gay or drunk in these comics, and here is he clearly drunk and shows a few beer bottles as the model. Kuwait is not impressed and decide to ask the Swedish architect Sune Lindström, who is portraited by Sweden, to make a tower. It ends with Sweden pulling the same **** at Denmark, and presenting a mushroom as model.

Some of the comments on my last comic reminded me that I've been meaning to make a comic about this Australian saying. When used like this it basically means "I'm not here to waste time"
(I post this comic 1 to 1 including the description from the artist. If you want to support the artist then go check their site, they got merch and a patreon)

Death Stranding is very influenced by Scandinavia. The landscape is based on Iceland, the twins are named after Swedish craters, Cliff is played by a Danish actor, Cliff's last name, Unger, means Children in most of the Scandinavian languages, and funnily enough, the main character's last name, Stand, also means Beach in the Scandinavian languages.

This is an honest concern for some people, and all I can say is, hey whatever floats your boat.
Brits have quite the fascination with dogging. And by that I mean, pay attention and you'll notice how often it shows up in British shows and movies.
