Monday morning laugh #6

Last MML was canceled due to no particular reason.
Today we go back to the old theme with (almost) german people. This is a homage (someone else) made to one of the most prominent german speaking actors....

Shit faced mice

Researchers in Sweden claims that they found a substance that will affect the reward substances in the brain. This could/should be a effective cure against alcoholism. So far; everything great. And nothing to argue about.

What caught my attention is that it so far only have been tested on mice! MICE for god sake!
The question one must ask is then: How do they get the rats drunk? What is there drink of choise?
And maybe most important: How do they distinguish the party-drunk rats from the rats suffering from alcoholism?!?

Any ideas? I feel that I have to dig deeper in this. Might send a e-mail to the inverted mice rehab... In that case I will come back with the uncut conversation...

Perhaps I should add that I´m not some animal rights guy. It might be legitimate to use rats in order to change the society we live in... And by the way, they are allowed to be drunk at work...

Monday morning laugh #5

Again, the MML is posted in the afternoon. Thinking about rename it. 
The funny things with this video is:
1. The link refers to a german site
2. The more obvious thing... And that's not very funny
But still. Enjoy it...

Monday morning laugh #4

The MML this week is a homage to the 90's as it comes in picture form.
For younger readers it might be worth pointing out that the 90's was the golden era for fun-pics-sites.
Pictures is like YouTube but just one pic. The funny thing doesn't move and people had entire floppy disks with such pics...

This picture does not need any explanation. Its stolen from http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com.

Fredagsmys.

Another week at work has soon passed. Offices spaces throughout Sweden is getting more empty by the minute from noon and on. The remaining coworkers are substantially cheerful. Suddenly your  grumpiest colleague passes your door whistling on some dust covered hymn from 50's...

Recently, this phenomenon got a name here in Sweden. Fredagsmys. I guess it would translate to "Friday comfort" or maybe more "Friday night cosiness". I believe that the term originates from a commercial for one of the biggest national snack producers and has, unfortunately, very little to do with sex.  

Average-Joe (or as we call him: Svenne-Banan) spends the night at home eating semi-home-made tacos drinking bag-in-box wine and looking at Let's Dance. Let's Dance is the Swedish equivalent to Dancing with the Stars or Strictly come Dancing. And I must say, quite frankly, the most boring program ever aired. I rather shit and bowl, place it on the coffee table and watch it dehydrate for 2 hours, then looking on 'stars' which is either way past their expiration date or young celebs from the C-list squeeze around a fit professorial dancer. Its not that much that I despise the concept; more that I find it almost painfully boring...

The more intelligent couch fan watches "On the Track" (sw: "På Spåret") which premiered in 1987 and still goes extremely strong. It's simply a game-show where two teams of two persons tries to figure out the destination of a speed-up video version of a train travel. After the video the teams competes for points usually by answering questions covering everything from sports to science associated with the destination... Sounds lame but is fantastic. 

Finally, the friday night cosiness is ended with that Average-Joe makes a move on wife-Average-Joe. In most homes it ends up with the wife going to sleep and Joe stays up... He has to choices. Either surfing for porn or swallow his sexual pride and watch sports... As I'm still a few years younger then Joe I play xbox...  

Tomorrow is the start of the god-forgotten "schlager-season", but more about this in another post...

Monday morning laugh #3

Due to hectic (and extremly modayish monday) is the "episode" cancelled.
Please, if somebody has a suggestion go a head and post it!

One thing deserves to be mentioned though... This morning the entire city (~500 000) smelled like shit. Oddly enough no one seems to know why (or at least has the common sense to keep their mouth shut about it). A good  start of the week...
