No wonder when your facing that face.

The Seventh Seal's Death gives me the willies.

Jöns: If everything is imperfect in this world, love is perfect in its imperfection.
Plog: You're lucky. You believe in your own twaddle.
Jöns: Who says I believe it? But I like giving advice.

I told him not to exchange rooks so early in the game. :(

Hmm.... there's a thread idea in here somewhere...

Rest in peace, Ingmar.

And thanks for The Seventh Seal.

His being dead sort of puts a hamper on his ability to read your thanks...

We, as swedes, should offer to carry on this message when we meet him in Valhalla in eighty years or so ;)

We, as Swedes, should do no such thing because any such praise would be a clear Jantelaw violation. Instead, we should do best in telling him all his films were hackneyed. That should bring him down a notch, even if it may be somewhat cruel to anyone who's had to endure Liv Ullman for extended periods of time.

You got a point there... Balder would surely not be happy if Ingmars ego would outgrow his... I don't want to lose my mead-rations because of a violation, that's for sure.

They'd have rations in Valhalla? What a jiff in a lagom sense! Remind me to bring some mistletoe in retribution.

I thought that in Valhalla...

1. You are in the Great Hall...
2. It's a big party...
3. You're swilling tankards of mead...
4. Eating mouthfuls of roast boar...
5. Making love to Valkyrie after Valkyrie...

I guess some of you will have to leave out Step 5.

Breeders get to contend with Valkyries, while us faggots get Thor and his impressive array of accoutrements. Quite equitable, I would say.

Tsk. You clearly need to read the Edda a bit more carefully. Only trollslayers may do the above. The rest of us are mere servants of the Gods! We will have to fight with the dogs over the bones, brush the Godly urinoars with our Oral B's and weep ourselves to sleep. It's the ultimate Jantelag in perfect practice. And we will be honored to do this, mere flieshits on the cape of Odin, as we are.

Yes. Strict ones too. And no brawling, drinking of fluffing after Hylands Hörna.

Gah, send me to Náströnd at once. Nothing is worth public service TV licences for an eternity.
