If it isn't wet, it isn't Finnish.
There's a 'that's what she said' joke somewhere in there.

My wife's best friend actually moved to Finland because of a girl from there.

Sounds like the title of a Finnish porno.

I don't quite get what you have against Finland. Is it its high standard of living? The excellent education system? The superb welfare state? The awesome vistas?
I'd be quite happy to move there if the sex were lousy, or even hypothetical.

The Finnish.
All I know about the Finns is what 'My summer car' has taught me. They seem like lovely people.

Finland has a Monty Python song devoted to it.

The Finnish.
This. Imagine a race of people who make Russians and Swedes seem like warm, touchy-feely types (i.e. Italians and Greeks). Finns are the gold-standard of antisociality. What is it about warmer weather that makes people aggressively friendly, and what about colder weather makes people want to hide in a corner if it means avoiding talking to people?

A conversation had by a Finnish expat (or an expat finn? It was on www.expat-finland.com)
Quote
"Yesterday marked 21 years since I arrived in Finland."
"Did you celebrate with a beer and a sausage?"
"No. I've become Finnish. I told no one. I sat in the dark in silence and thought about herrings."
"That's the spirit."

Hell, even www.visitfinland.com (not exactly an unbiased resource) supplies this: “An introverted Finn looks at his shoes when talking to you; an extroverted Finn looks at your shoes.”

The extreme, intense cold that they snowed out the fucking Russians with. Other than that I think Finland is theoretically amazing.

NO MORE FUN IN AMERIPOL.

Twump is simultaneously handing out sanctions/revoking visas of Saudi's believed to be involved in the assassination of Khashoggi while also dropping gems like:

"I don’t know, you know, who could really know. But I can say this, he’s got many people now that say he had no knowledge," in regards to his buddy the Crown Prince.

Finland. The country that held back the USSR so well in the Winter War (despite having to concede, they came out of it much better than the Soviet Union, especially after it was revealed to have been kicked off by a Soviet false-flag attack to overcome non-aggression pacts) that it persuaded Hitler that he should launch Operation Barbarossa and the war in the East.

I think it was in Finland where the Red Army bombarded a position prior to attacking it, the advanced with heavy losses into the minefield of their own making. Many of the shells had landed in the snow too softly to detonate until the attackers drove into the (undefended?/barely manned?) position and set them off under their own forces.

There definitely was The White Death.
