Ghostwalker 1,859 Posted September 30, 2016 You calling me lazy for not checking, just quoting?? :lol: No, you said you had read in the press. So whoever wrote that article did not bother to check the facts which makes that article writer lazy. A very common illness in today's media. So unless you wrote that article, I did not call you lazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though 6 months on your side of the Baltic would most certainly brush up my Swedish enough and give me the chance of writing a similar story, but with checked facts. I'm quite pedantic with stuff like that. Edited September 30, 2016 by f-s-p 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Come on you two- can`t Sweden and Finland get on with each other, after all I have just read that Finland was part of Sweden for almost 700 years(around 1150 to 1809) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have no intentions of holding back, every small thing is created to a huge piece of news. English press is much more polite and Germans are in between, closer to Sweden though. In Finland the "big"/national press just dont dont care. So just being envious here, I guess. Edited September 30, 2016 by f-s-p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
