    I just realised that when I thought I was being gangsta, breaking the law, I was in fact following it.

    You have to get tested before entering a country from a risk country, and do quarantine. I just assumed that the Swiss would do the Danish thing and declared the entire world the danger zone since both countries have that same mindset.

    I refuse to get tested every day before driving through/into Switzerland. Trains in my town are Swiss. Half the city works there and commutes. I'm surrounded by borders on three sides. Even police cars, ambulances and border police helicopters don't give a damn about the border and take the shortest routes. And also on the principle that they should all be tested to receive me. But anyway, I just looked it up, and currently it's just the Swiss that aren't allowed into Germany, and not the other way around. I did not think that such a perfect world was possible. I have all the positives and none of the drawbacks. No Swiss cars clogging our streets, forcing us to drive 80km/h on our perfect German country roads with perfect German law allowing us to do 100. No Swiss cars parking badly on the opposite side of the road.

    Keep the mutations coming, I say!

    Shush, Swede, you can't fool us Danes! The "Nyheter" clearly proves that the congregation of Danish minks is in fact a Swedish conspiracy trying to do away with their archenemy and rightful overlords.

    Dagens Nyheter was just the first scandinavian newspaper that came to my mind. I cannot really tell Danish, Swedish or Norwegian (Nynorsk) apart due to not knowing them enough. Might be able to recognise Bokmal, as it looks "older" and more like Icelandic.

    If you can understand Bokmål, you can understand Danish.

    I've gained so much weight since corona started. My alcohol consumption has also increased by a lot. I hope corona never goes away.

    I'm pretty sure your questionable twitch subscriptions might shed some light on the matter.

    Is there a chance, Iskar, that you are confusing Bokmål ("book language") with Nynorsk ("new Norwegian")? Bokmål is essentially a Norwegian adaptation of the Danish literary language, whereas Nynorsk is a modern adaptation of original Norwegian dialects with less Danish influence.

    I do not come across Nynorsk very often, but when I do, my first impression is that what is this? Someone typing while drunk and wearing baseball mitts? Then after a while I realize it is Nynorsk.

    I wonder what kinds of beers you have in the Philippines. I would sure like to try. If I ever come across any, I'll be sure to buy some no matter what it costs. Asian beers have become increasingly available here, especially in restaurants, but so far I have only seen Chinese, Thai, and Japanese beers.

    Edit: Well we have San Miguel actually in many stores and I like that. A lot of folks assume that it is Spanish, though.

    My advice: avoid the Tiger beer: Headache graranteed even in low quantity
    Tsin Tao is ok but that's a chinese one. Asahi and Sapporo are ok as well but they're japanese. They are many other, probably less known in Europe but can't remember which one I've tried tbh.
    If I remember well, the San Miguel is probably the most comon one in Philipines.

    Edit: I forgot to mention that there's also a San Miguel beer made in Spain. So don't be mistaken

    Wait it is not spanish?? I think here in spain they say they are spanish!! I have to find the truth. I will be back with answers.

    Edit: Yes sir, it is a Philippine brand. 9 out of ten Spaniards will tell you that it is a Spanish brand. what a moment to discover this. how many more things we ignore, I am terrified. This country is a lie???
