    Hey,

    Does anyone know of any classic Norwegian jokes that most here would generally know, the cheesier the better. Like the ones we have, paddy irish man, scots man etc etc

    The only good, kind of a of joke i can think of, and it was purely accidental was by a Norwegian rally car drive, it was pure genius and have my doubts on whether or not it was 'accidental'. Petter Solberg: "it's not the 'fart' that kills it's the 'smell' ", not really a joke but funny all the same.

    I've always thought Irish and Scandinavians have the same kind of sarcastic sense of humour, anyone got anything good ?

    Not in any way Nordic, just picking up some of the language. However I find the Norwegian sense of humour good. For instance their take on the Danes.

    I find myself enjoying the Norwegian sense of humour, at least I hope this is humour :)

    Varför kryper norrmän på marken när de är ute och handlar?
