Too many friends move on. I miss far, far more people than are in my life. It seems that almost everyone I truly connect with on any level move far away. I must connect with wanderers for some reason, even though I'm not one.

Fredagsmys is pretty much the most holy tradition of Sweden. The word origins from two words; “fredag” and “mys”, which roughly translates to Friday and cozy. Every Friday, all Swedes drive by the supermarket to buy ingredients for taco, soda and chips. Then, they all sit down in their sofas with their families or friends and watch telly. Usually, the parents fall asleep after a few glasses of wine or beer while the kids stuff themselves with chips until they have a stomach ache.
Late to the show but what a soulless picture of devices. Enjoy you’re pizza scissors and “entertainment.” Can’t stop until you’ve had enough.
I had one. But she couldn't take a joke. So it stopped before it began. But let me say:If I behave, can you arrange a spacious hole in the ground?
Can you tell us what joke(s) she couldn't take? I'm so curious!
There was a documentary released in Sweden this spring that got a lot of attention. It is about swedish artist Josefin Nilsson who died some time ago. For her late 50th birthday this documentary was released, and what got a lot of focus was a relationship she had in the 90s with a very famous swedish actor (not named in the documentary, but everyone in Sweden knows who they refer to in the film - lets call him Ragnar) that beat her, and harassed her during their relationship and also for a long time afterwards. Real piece of shit.
The girl I was seeing, told me on messenger she was watching the documentary and how sad it was.
And I responded "So I take it, you are not team Ragnar?"
Pretty much that. Not the most tactful joke, even with its (to me obvious) absurd:ness. But to my defense, it had worked on my colleagues when we discussed the documentary at work.
Here is Josefin (more famous for her swedish stuff ):
That's the kind of joke I would make to those that know me. I like that fine line and recognize that a joke can be just that, and nothing more.
But I would not make that joke online to a woman I was trying to hook up with.
We had slept together maybe a dozen times when I told the joke. And the day before that, she had told me her dad had asked if I was coming along to copenhagen when they were gonna celebrate his 60th birthday there.

Thank you for reminding me. Not cool!

She is very charming in a swedish rom-com called "Adam and Eve", I think it might be her only acting role maybe:
