Today is my 15th blogiversary! I began blogging when Dubya was US president and Göran Persson Sweden’s Prime Minister. If my blog was a Swedish person, today it would reach the age of:
- Legal responsibility
- Sexual consent
- Tractor driving
- Moped driving
- Giving small children a ride on its bicycle
- Watching all movies
- Renting movies (as if)
- Buying energy drinks
Lurkers, say FORDOMDAGS!
Time for the blog to apply for a tractor license and buy an EPA-tractor, then. Not sure if it also needs to buy a moped and start driving around the local hot dog kiosk(s) (ideally with a knackered muffler).

“Sexual consent”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_Europe#/media/File:Age_of_consent_in_Europe.svg
Apart from the obvious religiously influenced conservative outliers Turkey (not really part of Europe), Cyprus, and Ireland, Sweden is in the middle here.

Anecdotally, I myself found 15 years to be an excellent age for this.

Congratulations on 15 years of blogging, Martin – looking forward to another 15 years 🙂
Also Google says FORDOMDAGS = PREJUDICE. Unless it’s FORDOM DAGS, in which case it means
PREJUDICE OF THE DAY. I feel there may be something wonky about the translation…

Your missing the point. Or should I say, the two points. It’s FORDOMDAGS, not FÖRDOMDAGS. 😦 The former means something like “old times”. Yes, fördom is prejudice, but o and ö are two separate letters.
Fördomdags is not a word. Prejudice of the day would presumably be dagens fördom.

I suspect that “former” is also related to the “for” in “fordom”.

Yes, I just copied and pasted the word, but Google can be pretty unreliable as a translator. Not as bad as Facebook though.

Was that a water dragon I spotted? I thought they had gone extinct.

Nah mate. I was called back to my home planet for a while to report on Planet Earth. When I told them about Trump, Johnson, Putin, climate change and Covid they wouldn’t let me come back here until Christmas.

I thought you were going to say they sent you back to sort the whole mess out.
Pity, we need an alien being to sort it out.
