When the thoughts get so deep you turn the water off and just stand there.
1 yearIt’s ‘fem’ in Swedish too, guessing it’s something similar in Norwegian? In Hebrew the first is 5 too (Chamesh/חמש), so that’s an interesting pattern

En, to, tre, fire, fem.
1000000 / 5 = 200000
Here’s the proof that Danish is 200.000 times better than English.

I have watched every episode, it’s hilarious. Episodes ranging from them trying “the godfather of drugs” (heroin), to him stealing a wheelchair. I guess it might be too much for some people though, my wife can not watch it for similar reasons.

I love this! It doesn’t seem like it could possibly be true, but my 30 seconds of testing haven’t debunked it.
Is this this case in Brasil? In european portuguese your lips don’t touch for um

Unless I do it in my native language, Finnish. Then I’ll only get to three.
