Was I the only one who immediately thought you were referencing Wheel of Time? everynametaken Send a noteboard - 17/10/2010 01:13:11 AM
Was talking with a Danish fellow the other day. He says Finns are very quiet people generally. As a nation. Tend to speak shortly and straight to the point. "You go into a bar in Helsinki and everyone will be sitting around drinking, but not much talking." He thought it was weird ... I thought it was my kind of place! LoL ... Are the Finns really known for their general quietness? I remember being there in Summer 2006, it was a very soothing city to hang out in.

Maybe I'll go back to study at Sibelius Academy one day ...


I am so ready for that book.

I think the reason finns are silent... (and they are, btw) - 16/10/2010 08:25:41 AM 514 Views
Don't much like vodka (1-2), don't own a knife (3), still alive (4) and can't do tango (5) *NM* - 16/10/2010 11:38:55 AM 277 Views
Not owning a knife could be counted as a suicide waiting to happen. *NM* - 16/10/2010 12:06:10 PM 231 Views

That's sort of weird really. I've had a knife since I was 6 - 16/10/2010 10:12:02 PM 512 Views
I can't come up with any reason to own a knife that doesn't sound totally pretentious - 17/10/2010 02:41:13 PM 527 Views

That's quite an odd assumption. *NM* - 17/10/2010 04:01:01 PM 258 Views
I know, now that I think about it. *NM* - 17/10/2010 04:40:31 PM 219 Views
Oooh...those sound like fun! - 17/10/2010 02:01:39 AM 523 Views
How do you know you've found an extroverted Finn? - 16/10/2010 12:26:36 PM 500 Views
I suspect the Finns will be very loud very soon. - 16/10/2010 02:24:18 PM 701 Views
