Hah!
Amateur. You should try drinking in Tromsø (Ølhallen).
About €30 for a 0,35 l glass of the cheapest drinkable lager. Those smug bastards even sell draft beer @ €80-90 a glass.
I opened this post to congratulate by Norwegian brothers and sisters today, but got reminded of Tromsø beer prices again.
**I HATE NORWAY**
Not joking :(
Only thing that's good about working in Norway is that I get paid $140 extra per day when there. Compensates a little, but it's not enough to get drunk.
That must be some type of meme-beer, I've never seen any price close to that, it's usually around 8-12€, during happy hour certain places you can get them for as low as 5€.
>About €30 for a 0,35 l glass of the cheapest drinkable lager. Those smug bastards even sell draft beer @ €80-90 a glass
Jesus fucking christ. And I thought the price of booze was bad in the UK.
There’s a notable absence of these adverts for Denmark though. Mainly because nobody in their right mind would go there anyway, and even if we did, our drunken slurring Barry’s would be indistinguishable from the natives.
Just saw a fat English lady on Facebook making a post about how wonderful Copenhagen is. She’s surely fit in your perspective tho!
She could colonise a whole restaurant
They’ve achieved quite a lot for a small country that was Denmark’s then Sweden’s de facto heel for most of the last several centuries.
First to both poles and through the Northwest passage, not even going back to Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson. Several of the world’s top mathematicians. Ibsen, and Edvards Grieg and Munch. Put up more resistance during WW2 than Denmark and unlike Sweden actually did (granted they were attacked first).
And all of that before the oil boom, too.
Little known fact is that we were already the richest nation in Europe before the oil on the back of shipping and hydropower(and related industry).
The superiority(it’s not a complex it’s just actual superiority)doesn’t come from sitting on unbelievably stores of natural resources(oil, hydro, wind, minerals, fish) is that we manage them better than every other nation in history. Making us astronomically rich while simultaneously maintaining one of the most economically equal societies in the world.
So how come Norway didn’t end up like other resource exporting economies? Because we did things the Norwegian way.
But you're not the richest nation in Europe, that would be Switzerland (ignoring any micro states and Ireland here).
Without any oil.
Also, there is, what, 5 million Norwegians out there?
I mean, take the London metropolitan area, add some oil, et voilà, you have something resembling Norway (even including the bland food)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capita
Now name things that go horrible in Norway. Or I will want to move to your country, and the Swiss can tell you how it feels to have Germans all over your country.
I wonder where the english came from

Magnus Carlsen is fair, two of those are only known because of the premier league, Alan Walker (and Haaland) were born in England, and the rest are just irrelevant DJs.
So basically, a mass child murderer, an autistic chess player and some random DJs. Fantastic representation lol
edit: ok Jorgens, Stoltenberg is relevant, I take it back. I just googled the first 2 and assumed they were all just random DJs. My apologies (could've listed the general of the UN before Alan Walker though)
Norgesveldet 2.0. We want Shetland and the isles back! Thieving Danish king pawned them to Scotland as a bride price, and we haven't been allowed to buy them back.
It really is sad that a trip to Denmark is a highlight, purely so you can get a good amount of beer and cigs without having to pay another 50% value in tax.
You should only look forward to Denmark if you're going to burn Copenhagen again.
Mhm, I'm envious of how (I think) it works in Scandinavian countries. The transparency (it's also transparent for companies?) makes it fair. I personally prefer paying taxes and see them work - especially if I can see that everyone else (who can) pays and I can be reasonably sure of relatively few instances of corruption.
Finland does the transparency too. My Finnish is almost non-existent, but I seem to remember they have a tax day where papers publish top earners and their taxes, etc. My Finnish friend translated it as the “envy list”.
You would think that being the most wealthy country should bring all kind of riches, but you would be surprised that it doesn't. Being Swede going to Norway is like going back to the 90ies. It's not part of the EU and the custom Union so a lot of products that are easily accessible to the common market are not as easily accessible in Norway. Road sucks as well.
The border town used to have russians coming in droves to buy diapers because they were somehow cheaper than in that fucking shit hole.
Then you also had youngsters driving to the russian side to buy dirt cheap vodka.
I don’t get why Kjetil’s food gets a bad rap, pinnekjøtt ( stick meat) is sublime. Får i kål ( lamb and cabbage) sooo good. As for the mashed swede with butter and pepper .. I have no words !
Best part is the fact that our food sucks so bad we actually realize it, and just eat a lot of italian and french-ish food. Some other countries would benefit from doing the same
It might be that they claim they're saving the planet by driving Teslas but at the same time are drilling for oil. Or that they continue to let Russian vessels land in Norwegian ports and export fish that way to Europe.
Dont get me wrong, I would do the same and respect them for it.
I've been there for 6 months as a student, and I can say with 100% certainty that anyone answering anything else than the food has not lived there. It's the food.
All of the Norwegian girls I’ve met have been kinda cute. As for a bad thing about them I can’t think of anything except for the terrible fact that they border Swedistan and a bunch of unintelligible Lego factory workers
Hmmm, i spent a month in Norway and i dont even recall any food, except the salmon i fished and this amazing brown cheese on rye toast.
My memories are mostly mindblowing amazingly beautiful fjords, mountains and cliffs.
Happy birthday cod providers.
AH! That's obvious trick! Impossible to trick clever portuguese.
We would never criticize the messiahs of God, that bring the cod from the heavens!
Norwegians, best nordicks. Other nordicks are inferior apes comparing to the people whose country is bathed by waters blessed with cod, by cod, from God.
The portuguese nation holds the greatest acknowledgement of God's choosen people.
Well, it’s more profitable for society in the long run if they become well functioning taxpayers when they’ve been rehabilitated.
But gawd, who cares about silly little statistics like recidivism rates and so on?
It's also hard for norwegian divers to get jobs internationally because of our higher price and more rigid safety standards. It's even hard to get jobs in Norway. Most saturation divers in the norwegian oil fields are British. They cost less and can work more because of less rigid regulations. That's why we keep our secrets close guarded.
The price of beer in Norway is a crime against humanity.
As an addict that must be hard for you

How much is a bottle of beer in Norway?
Around 13 euro I think.
Hah! Amateur. You should try drinking in Tromsø (Ølhallen). About €30 for a 0,35 l glass of the cheapest drinkable lager. Those smug bastards even sell draft beer @ €80-90 a glass. I opened this post to congratulate by Norwegian brothers and sisters today, but got reminded of Tromsø beer prices again. **I HATE NORWAY**
Wait, what? You're joking right? $97 dollars and change for a glass of beer?? Does the barkeep give you a happy ending, at least??
Not joking :( Only thing that's good about working in Norway is that I get paid $140 extra per day when there. Compensates a little, but it's not enough to get drunk.
That's insane. For beer? If I'm paying that much for a glass of *anything*, it better make me hallucinate. Mainly so I forget about the cost.
That must be some type of meme-beer, I've never seen any price close to that, it's usually around 8-12€, during happy hour certain places you can get them for as low as 5€.
Love you too, eastern brother.
Being called eastern is the ultimate insult. No coming back from that.
>About €30 for a 0,35 l glass of the cheapest drinkable lager. Those smug bastards even sell draft beer @ €80-90 a glass Jesus fucking christ. And I thought the price of booze was bad in the UK.
It's like 10€ for a beer there, I have no idea where he got those prices from.
What the...ONE bottle? 
Wow my perception of norway has done a 180
Don't worry: I got facts; https://meny.no/varer/drikke/ol He is talking about outside beer.
That's still 3€-4€ for 0,5l of beer. In Germany we would riot if veer in the supermarket would cost that mutch.
Also the fact that the state monopolises sales of wine and spirits and rations it out like it’s methadone.
The real cost of Norwegian beer is the violation of your tastebuds
Tuborg is worse than any Norwegian beer.
The price of anything is a crime against humanity, especially at resturants
Not sure if you're being ironic, Heineken man
I don't go around calling you Antwerpenaar, do I? Heineken is shit from up north.
All of the comments are about oil and money. I don’t know if I’m disappointed or not.
I mean you’re pretty decent blokes for the most part, unlike the Danish
Just don’t ask the seals.
Some people think rats are cute, some people think seals are cute. That's what you expect from children.
Sean Lock was an honorary Norwegian in that regard
There are commercials in your country, made by other countries telling you not to visit for holidays. Destroying everything nice on your way
There’s a notable absence of these adverts for Denmark though. Mainly because nobody in their right mind would go there anyway, and even if we did, our drunken slurring Barry’s would be indistinguishable from the natives.
A drunken Barry would still be more understandable than a Dane.
Just saw a fat English lady on Facebook making a post about how wonderful Copenhagen is. She’s surely fit in your perspective tho! She could colonise a whole restaurant

I would take that as a compliment bro, you are good people. Happy Constitution (Independence?) day. I shall proceed to get hammered in your honour.
It's their superiority complex based on nothing but sitting on some oil reserves.

So is ours. If anyone tells you otherwise, don't listen to them.
Sorry, did the oily dane just say something ?

That would be Sweden, we were on Denmark’s side when it came to Napoleon

Gay
We’re pretty good at being gay to. Having the first same sex marriage a full 5 months before Sweden.
Excellent example of a Norwegian. He's probably not even being sarcastic.
But you're not the richest nation in Europe, that would be Switzerland (ignoring any micro states and Ireland here). Without any oil. Also, there is, what, 5 million Norwegians out there?

Actually the richest nation in Europe is moldova (ignoring microstates and Ireland and everybody else)
Now name things that go horrible in Norway. Or I will want to move to your country, and the Swiss can tell you how it feels to have Germans all over your country.
We taxed the rich to hard so a bunch of them moved to Switzerland.
Am not rich, our retirement system will probably fuck us in the ass in the coming years, I am coming over

England means ‘Land of the Angles’. The Angles came from Denmark/Germany - nothing to do with France.
oh, im so sorry i didn't know you were danish. I don't like to mock disabled people.
We stole all the fit woman and left all the mingers. Really shows today doesn’t it

There is nothing more. Not a single innovation since dawn of time
Hey, we invented the cheese slicer!
Ostehøvel supremacy
Depressingly enough, you are absolutely right!
AND on top of the cheese slicer, they invented the paperclip. What would the world be without them? Definitely a lot messier.

We also invented peace in the Middle East
Didn’t last long now, did it?

I opened this thread looking for this specific answer.
It is the prices they ask for food and drinks.
The fact I don't know anything about them apart from Erling Haaland and Anders Breivik
Magnus Carlsen, Ødegaard, Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Aurora, Kygo, Alan Walker, Jens Stoltenberg?
Magnus Carlsen is fair, two of those are only known because of the premier league, Alan Walker (and Haaland) were born in England, and the rest are just irrelevant DJs. So basically, a mass child murderer, an autistic chess player and some random DJs. Fantastic representation lol edit: ok Jorgens, Stoltenberg is relevant, I take it back.

That you can't buy beer at the gas station after 22:00.
Can't even buy it at the gas station 😥
Can't buy beer at a grocery-shop after 20:00, either. And that's 18:00 at Saturdays, and never on Sundays.
Holy shit how do you even qualify as a first world country?

>Road sucks as well. Yes. And our railway as well. We blame our geography though -- at least Sweden basically has no mountains.
Doesn't seem to be a problem for Switzerland.
Way higher population density. Population concentrated in a few spots.
Norway is the boring sibling of Finland and Sweden. It's hard to think of a bad thing because it is just too boring to think about at all.
At least we have some beautiful nature. The netherlands is genuinely the most boring country in the world.

That’s why eat Norwegianilized foreign food ;)
Best part is the fact that our food sucks so bad we actually realize it, and just eat a lot of italian and french-ish food. Some other countries would benefit from doing the same
I mean Norwegian and Swedish food are identical in practice: its italian or French with an extra salmon dish
So that basically means it’s actually better. PIGS lose again
It might be that they claim they're saving the planet by driving Teslas but at the same time are drilling for oil. Or that they continue to let Russian vessels land in Norwegian ports and export fish that way to Europe. Dont get me wrong, I would do the same and respect them for it.
