American Reacts to FUNNY Norwegian Memes (Part 4)

I almost peed myself at "radioactive reindeer". For reference, I'm 90% sure those are reindeer with antlers painted with fluorescent paint to make them visible in the night, so they won't get run over.

Domesticate reindeer is common among reindeer herders, which in Norway would be Sami reindeer herders. Traditionally reindeer were used pulling sledges, and in some areas further east, in Russia, they even use them for riding. You can even milk reindeer and use the milk. My niece was for a while active in the sport of reindeer sledding, which involves being pulled after reindeer on skis.

It's exaggerated, sure, but we do enforce the road laws far more stricter than most countries. Which surprises some when they come here and drive like they're on racing tracks and gets surprised that they can't get away with it ... we also have zero tolerance for driving under the influence. Half a beer and you're over the limit.

Lol the snow refridgerator... In the winter, at least in my family, we occasionally put stuff outside in the snow to cool it down. Mainly beer, soft drinks or other drinks a little while before we open them :) Since it's often very much freezing weather, it's such a quick way to get it cooled.

[@EasterWitch]

Most of the reindeer in Norway is domesticated.There is a few herds of wild reindeer still in Dovre and on Svalbard, but usually if you see a reindeer it will be a domesticated one, since the wild ones are very scared of people (except the ones on Svalbard, they don't care at all). In Sweden only domesticated reindeer are left. They are domesticated both for meat, pelts and sledding.

[@John_1920]

11:58 It is true for a lot of Norwegians. The issue is that many Norwegians, while often very good at English during school, stop using and practicing English after they finish School, so while they can often understand English written and spoken to them perfectly fine, their spoken English is quite rusty, to the point where they have difficulties properly forming sentences, whereas they had no trouble doing the same thing when they were at school. Others, while they can properly form sentences, have such a thick Norwegian accent when speaking English that they don't like the sound of their own voice when they speak English, some even doubting their own skill and don't feel comfortable speaking in English because of this.

[@Youtube_Stole_My_Handle_Too]

8:53 Norwegians do, do this, well, not exactly. It is faster if placed in open air so that the wind gets hold of it assuming there is minus celcius degrees. Typically at Christmas and New Years eve when there's so many guests it is impossible to cool everything in the fridge and freezer.

[@kiemarii]

As a norwegian I wouldn't say the police are overly strict when it comes to minor offences such as a broken taillight etc. nor particularly forceful in how they arrest traffic offenders. It's not like in the US where arrests turn nasty really quick. Most of the time speeders (for example) are caught in either automated speedtraps (such as the camera seen in the winter road patrol meme) or when police set up a manned speedtrap with their laser gun, usually in a spot where they can wave people off the road and into a safe space to stop, with their car at the ready in case an offender refuses to stop. High speed chases are extremely rare here. If you commit a traffic offense and are stopped by police, the standard procedure is to show drivers license, valid ID, the car's title and proof of insurance, and sometimes you undergo drug/alcohol tests, the police will then write their citation/ticket and you as the offender can choose whether to accept it or refuse it, and then you're allowed to continue with your day. If you refuse a police issued ticket/refuse to pay you usually end up in court. What most of the speeding memes are actually referring to is our extremely high fine rates, if you're a low or middle class income a speeding ticket can easily take 1-2/3rds of your paycheck for the month, depending on the severity of your speeding. If your speeding is high enough it's grounds for immediate confiscation of your license and an arrest. We also operate with a strike/point system, each traffic offense that is recorded usually awards your license a specified numbers of strikes/points, and if you get enough of them you will lose your drivers license and have to take the theory and practical exams again after the court determined period to get it back.

Broken lights is a rear sight in norway,mostly because we have to go and deliver our cars to a mechanic shop every 2 years,but also the road lights are almost non existent outside the big towns,forget small towns,if you have no lights on your car you don't see a thing at night.

[@kiemarii]

@@runeingebretsen8378 I'm well aware, I live in Northern Norway so lack of road lights is something I'm very familiar with. A broken taillight was just an example of something you could potentially get a citation for in this case, and I wouldn't exactly consider a broken light rare. I probably see at least one car a day with one or multiple lights broken, varying from missing a low or high beam to having a rear brake light out xD Even if we do have to get our cars inspected every second year I think most people don't necessarily rush to fix a blown light bulb unless their inspection is coming up within the next few months

[@John_1920]

05:45 This is not a true representative of police speed patrols. That box is an automatic speed control camera, it takes pictures of your car when its sensors is triggered by a speed I believe starting from 3km/h above the speed limit. After your image has been taken by that camera, it goes through a database that decides what actions to take for your speeding, figures out your address by looking up your license plate in the registry, and then sends you a fine in the mail at a later date. If you are lucky, you get away from one of these due to various factors usually always including that the license plate (and I don't know if they can do reverse image search based on image of your face or not) is unrecognizable, as it wouldn't have any way of figuring out who to fine and or where to send it. As for police speed/seatbelt controls, they will usually have an officer standing or in a car somewhere, checking the speed of the various cars or whether they are using their seatbelts or not, and if they catch someone breaking those laws, they radio it in to their colleagues that would be stationed some distance away from them, ready to pull the respective vehicle to the side to talk to them and give the fine.

9:13 Norwegian police have unmarked cars, they can be anything, any brand, any class of car, sport car, a suv, a station wagon, sedan, coup, what ever. So speeding in Norway is stupid. Also in high risk areas for speeding, there are photo boxes. Police don't have tanks, but they do have heavily armored cars for Swat like unit called Delta, and for witness transport. But tanks in on the road are just exercises they have to drive to the area to practice sometimes. In this case the road seems to goign trough such area, so there is a sign, people watchign the road, in an unmarked military police car it seems, thus plate is blurred. Winter exercises are common, the practice driving in mud, snow, ice, the worst conditions. Exercises are done trough the year in all seasons.

Just pls keep the speed limits. And for the love of gods don't drink and drive. Half a beer and your over the limit, so in norway the rule is just dont drink at all if you want to drive.

06:40 I haven't seen anything like "Fee da," but I'm guessing it's spelled that way specifically to make it easier for English speakers to understand. I think it was meant to say "Fy da!" If you say the English word Fee, as in, when there is a fee/charge to do something, the way you pronounce "ee" is close to - but not exactly the same as - the y in Norwegian. But honestly speaking, I don't actually get this meme's text, "Uff da!" would be something your walking companion might say if they saw you just stepped in some doo doo, but "Fy da" is more used for when you have done something wrong, or whatever.

uff = oof Fi (or fee as it is typed here just so u pronounce it correctly) = eww! The "da" is a complex matter tho. I don't have the facts. But! First of all, "uff" and "fi" is used both with and without the "da". I would say tho that "da" could be seen as added when you express sympathy, and often will be said like that by people witnessing others stepping in or almost stepping in the poop. If you step in it yourself, you would probably drop the "da" because it's not about sympathy anymore. "uff da" is almost a poetic and very controlled way of reacting to an incident. Same with "uff". Even tho I don't make a habit out of cussing, I would probaly consider cussing in that situation instead of saying uff, since it's simply not strong enough hehe. As I said, it's an extremely complex concept, and I'm sure there are some more clear theories and definition for this, that people that actually know this have come up with. I suspect it's highly individual. Uffda is also an expression used by many decendents of norwegians in america. So that might be worth looking into for you. Anyways - uff/uffda is I would say a rarely used expression in norway vs other more common and modern alternatives. Fi is simply an expression of disgust. If I see something disgusting I frequently say Fi. If I step in a pile of crap, I would probably be leaning more towards f**k or sh*t - pun intended.

@@Emperor_Nagrom as a norwegian I would write Fydda. Because that's how I pronounce it. "fy da" doesn't make sense to me, as "fy" is something you say to someone who has done something bad. Fydda is something I say when something bad has happened. And I am more likely to say "Fitte!" when something bad happens to be specifically. Fitta would not be said, as it means "the count" while Fitte is just an exclamation that means cunt on its own.

@@Emperor_Nagrom if I stepped in shit, I would say "Fitte". When my grandmother saw that my pants had gotten dirty, she would say "å fydda".

Try sharing a border with a populous country with a low median income like Mexico rather than Sweden and see how difficult things can be.

[@Popupkiller]

Yea. Because norway doesn't see any immigration from undeveloped countries. Oh wait.

[@norwegiantrucker6424]

We do. Swedes and Finns are quite well off, but Norway also borders Russia 😉

One of the happiest countries in the world ?? It's wrong ! In the last two years, only the state is making huge amounts of money. The Labor Party government that sits today said that now it was "the common man's turn". And guess if it was, since then all prices have gone up a lot, food, electricity, fuel++++.Last year there was a large increase in families who are unable to maintain normal operations, so more and more people have to have help with daily operations. And it probably won't get any better until we have an election, because the way the government is running now, it will only get worse before it gets better! So as of today, Norway is not a happy country.
