american accented dinner guest: mm, oh my god. that was incredible
stereotypical swedish accented host 1: oh, stop it, you’re too kind
guest: the mushrooms. de-licious
host 1: actually, we picked them ourselves.
guest: oh really?
host 1: yeah, yeah
american: where?
the music falls silent as do the people. a person chokes on their drink. everyone but the guest stare blankly into their food.
guest: i’m sorry did I say something inappropriate?
host 1: oh no, it’s nothing, it’s nothing
host 2: don’t worry about it, yeah, don’t worry
guest: ah okay, thank god, yeah no i was just wondering where you picked the mushrooms
the party falls silent again
host 2: han var jävligt nyfiken, var han [somebody’s being fucking nosy]
guest: i don’t understand, what’s going on? have i said something inappropriate? i’m just wondering if you have a “spot” like where you pick your mushrooms, like your “mushroom spot”?
host 1, throws utensils down, raises voice and stands up: okay now you’re crossing the line, now you have- nu får du- i have to ask you to leave, please
good mushroom spots are so few and far between. if too many people know of it, someone else will get to it before you do! finding a good spot is kept as a secret within a family so that you can ensure you manage to get some tasty chantarelles during mushroom season :) ASKING for someone’s spots is a social faux pas because you’re asking them to give up their mushrooms for you. lots of people in sweden take mushroom season really seriously!!!
i love that ppg and gorillaz are in the same universe. imagine youre a powerpuff girl and you get tickets to see popular band gorillaz and you see a bitch you used to beat up on stage
okay but the alternative. imagine you’re at the popular band gorillaz concert and 3 six year olds show up and just fucking vaporize the bassist
