'Lost in Translation' 2

[Buck Birdseed]

It's a very danish type of humour.

[Az]

Yes, probably because we thought that the texts were of similar nature.

I wonder from where the entire "joints sold" bull**** was conjured? Selling individual joints.

[Buck Birdseed]

It happens in Denmark!

[Adagio]

I got the 'jokes' from a very un-danish site, so no, it's not just a danish type of humor


Btw, someone make another game...

I have recieved Gangerolf's text. The Scandinavians should be able to translate roughly word by word, so I don't think we'll be the ones screwing it up. Then again, you never know. I did spend a little while wondering about that part with the foxes (yiff, yiff!) before looking at the context eventually cleared things up.

I spent a while coming up with that word too It's not exactly part of my everyday vocabulary.

What is DARE?

some american War-on-drugs program with youth, IIRC.

What? You buy them by the dozen

Anyway, it must have been Hueij's compulsive habit that brought it in


And what's with the 'foxes'?

[Gangerolf]

Drugs Are Really Evil, perhaps?

ADG, are you going to post all the translations here, so we can see how the text "evolved"?

[Az]

I am not sure how ok is this WRG to the forum rules, but....


you buy the weed in small boxes ( matchboxes), and then, you roll them into joints, using cigarettes, or some other suitable stuff.

or so I heard.

[Buck Birdseed]

You can buy ready-rolled joints just as you can ready-rolled cigarettes... I've seen them at Roskilde.

[Gangerolf]

And what's with the 'foxes'?

A joint is a "rev". But "rev" also means fox. In Norway people smoke foxes, but apparently in Denamrk, they don't.

[Fake Boris]

AFAIK you can only do this in the Netherlands. In Canada there's no way the dealer would roll the joint for you.

Of course, if you're buying it from a buddy in a private house, things are different.

[Buck Birdseed]

Right, I've made a new game:
