Trump & Co will soon be gone... the powder trail this motley bunch of comrades has been laying down is about to be lit, and the fireworks will be lovely. Then we can get back to the normal business of getting very little accomplished here. 8-)
I can't unsee that!!!
The horror.... the horror
The Mods should consider a ban because of this assault on our most deeply held beliefs and our tender feelings.
I have seen there is a "last film I watched" thread.
But what about "Last Bond film I watched" thread? Can't find anything like that and on MI6 Community it is one of the most popular threads since years.
Not sure if I should open one without asking first. Thanks for the help.
Unusual facts about Norway ......
Norway has almost six supermarkets
Norway's main exports are sugar, rum and specialist bondage gear
The Norwegian language has no word for " fish"
Norway has no natural resources, so has to borrow it's oil and gas from
Neighbouring countries .
Norway banned the import of The Rubic's Cube in the 90s
Norway has no Internet access
If you re-arrange the letters in Norway and add a few, it spells ...
" Land of endless night, damp in places but intent on world domination "
Norway is twinned with Canada ( although Canada, hasn't been told )
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
16 million Americans believe chocolate milk comes from brown cows )
That's 7% of the population.
I shouldn't make fun of Americans, but sometimes they make it too hard to resisit. ..
If any Americans here feel like creating some balance, I'm sure thay can find some embarrasing facts about my country. Feel free to do so
I've been to your country, and I didn't see anything there that could compare to the stupidity I've seen in my own country. The only thing I could make fun of was that I could walk not much more than a kilometre through Oslo's city center and pass 4 TGI Friday's restaurants.
oh Thunderpussy, now do the same for Switzerland, so the bloody Americans finally get that it's not the same as Sweden ) )
Don't complain. The Austrians have to endure being confuse with Australia all the time
I have a T-shirt with "No kangeroos in Austria" written on it, just to help them out.
Many also believe Norway is the capital of Sweden.
If TP can't help, I know some useful facts about Switzerland:
- Chocolate makes up 74% of Switzerland's exports. Clocks make up only 21% of the nation's exports.
- The main cast and crew of all Bond movies are given a chalet in Switzerland by EON. Some have made the mistake of selling, resulting in not being hired in a Bond movie ever again.
- 47% of all Swiss males work as ski instructors.
- Their neutrality is very important to the Swiss. If one of them gets involved in a fist fight or even a loud discussion while travelling abroad he or she can lose the Swiss citizenship.
I only know a few of the well known facts, Everyone else knows ......
Switzerland has the longest coastline of any European country.
In fact the world's third largest navy.
The Swiss refuse to believe in the colour vermilion.
Swiss cheese is in fact made in China and shipped in for tourists.
Switzerland has as many as eight car parks, and the traditional dance is
The Rumba.
It is illegal for any Swiss person to have any other hair colour than blonde
The Bikini was invented in Switzerland, to aid clairvoyants during a seance.
The national sport is bare Knuckle rummy played over many days and
The Swiss Family Robinson, were actually Welsh .
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
The Banks in Switzerland are so discreet, the bank statements are secret. The customers must try to calculate the sums for their own accounts. Learning to calculate interest is the main goal of math classes in schools.
I just love the Swiss characters in the Bond series. I have already given my appreciation to the secret star of QOS, Elvis in another thread but this one I like as well....
That reminds me, BJB006, did you bring any chocolates with you??
My favourite Swiss banker is the guy from The World Is Not Enough's pre-title sequence.
It may just be a series of one liners but just like The Man With The Golden Gun's dinner scene, the actors make the scene so much better than it must've been on paper.
"I'm giving you the opportunity to walk aut with de munny, Mr Bund."
"...and I'm giving you the opportunity to walk out with your life."
"Looking at our present situation, strictly as a banker, I would have to say that de numbers are not on your side."
"Perhaps you failed to take into account my uhh.... hidden assets."
Speaking of hidden assets, the cigar girl isn't so bad either.
As mentioned earlier the Swiss army is built on a militia model, requiring soldiers to keep their assault rifles at home. Also artillerymen tow cannons home from exercises and park them in the garage and combat engineers are expected to bury land mines in the garden for safe keeping.
of course I have CHOCOLATES with me, it's enough for all of you and I have just arranged them in a nice way for you, it's army chocolate, the best kind.
we Swiss are also very patriotic, in a good way!
this is me at my summer residence with a view to a kill)

Goodnight ?
I missed your sparking personality so much on MI6.
So glad I'm here now, for good I mean.
I even stepped out the private chat group like you did some time ago by the way, it became unbearable, all the negativity.
I have seen there is a "last film I watched" thread.
