THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN

Your post a couple days ago about reading things you acknowledge as silly nonsense and not the Height Of Intellectual Literature, and letting yourself enjoy it anyway, unearthed a memory for me that I just. I'm sorry, I just need to share this.

So, there was a phase I had, years ago now, where I for some reason ended up somewhat regularly reading James Bond books whenever I was in the mood for something light and kinda dumb but entertaining to read (I was reading Outlander and A Song of Ice and Fire at the time as well, never finished either of those series tho, so I kinda ended up reading lighter stuff in between those long books to relax and let my brain take a breather if that makes sense). I honestly couldn't tell you which books I read, and it wasn't in any particular order, it was sort of like, starting with whatever my dad had in the shelf and then continuing with whatever the library happened to have. Some of what I read were the original ones written by Ian Fleming, some were by later authors. Idk, point is, it was light spy-adventure nonsense I read when I didn't have the energy to think too deep about what I was reading.

Sorry about how long I took to get to the point, but, anyway. There was this one James Bond book I picked up mostly because hehe suomi mainittu. Not by Fleming, one of the later authors, I remember neither the author name nor the book name and can't be assed to google it rn. Anyway, a fair amount of the plot of that book took place in Finland. I could not say for the life of me what the actual plot of it was, just that part of it was set here. I remember like exactly two details about it, and both of those I only remember because I thought they were funny back when I was reading it.

One of those details was that there was a bit of Bond's internal monologue at some point that was just him basically being a whiny bitch about the fact that he thought the sort of thick winter clothes you need for Finnish winters didn't make him look sexy

The other is that there was a scene where the baddies tried to kill him by ??? crushing his car (while he was driving on some little road somewhere in the middle of nowhere) between two lumiauras??? like i just. that seems like a highly impractical way to attempt to kill anyone, but sure (ja sori siitä et mä en ny suoraan muista et mikä helvetti lumiaura on englanniks, mut sä ny puhut suomee kuiteski)

Idk you talking about silly stuff in books just unearthed this memory for me, no idea why, and i just needed to share it with someone

It's a snow plough. The english word for lumiaura is snow plough. Also that mental image is hilarious.

idk why people photoshopped the crying cat meme on this pic when the unedited version is so powerful

You are an anonymous self-employed assassin. On streaming sites, you select the top person on the poll of criminals who avoided the law, stream the hunt for them, recite their evil deeds, and kill them when the majority of viewers votes to execute. One day, your real name is on top of the poll.

whenever i see a noir detective in the rain i’m like yeah man… that’s exactly where you’re supposed to be

DELETE THIS POST

Oh to hell with all you clowns. My polish friend sent me this picture

and I told him that I'd seen that picture on tumblr, used as a part of a finnish pun meme, and started explaining how the finnish "kunhan" "for as long as/as soon as/provided that" is often pronounced in spoken language as "kuha", which is the name of this one specific kind of fish. So you could caption this specific picture as "rakentaminen onnistuu, kuha on vasara", which would translate both to "you can build things, for as long as you have a hammer" and "you can build things, this fish is a hammer". And then I had to look up what this specific fish is called in english

AND THE EXAMPLE SENTENCE THEY USED IS AN EXAMPLE OF THIS SPECIFIC FUCKING MEME

WHICH ONE OF YOU DID THIS, I WILL BEAT YOU WITH THE FISH HAMMER
