Ok let me fix this thread.
If you have the means, I highly recommend the "Viking fine dining" at Noma in Copenhagen:
...yes, you eat twigs and moss, and it's expensive.

Re: Vikings
As inaccurate as it is known to be, it is still better than most other tv.

You might be several paychecks in by now, had you taken Devil's advice back then.
Yes, the key word being "if".Now you're fucking saying something.
Not exactly those dishes.You ate this?
What do these things taste like and what does the price tag look like?
Do you even have a passport?
Here, i'll explain in terms you might understand:
You sit down and the waiter tells you to eat the centerpiece!
So then you're all WTF and OMG!
Everything is all about the LULZ and the nomnomnom!
At current exchange rates dinner there with wine pairings will run you around $450.
Get to work, and read the link next time dipshit. -

Re: Vikings
It wouldn't matter to you. You'd still find anything you could to troll; my rims wouldn't be chromed enough, my Puerto Rican house maid's tits would point in different directions, etc, etc. Originally Posted by ChenPengFi

You do realise that sanitation is very competitive here. If you have the slightest **** up on your application it gets thrown out. Aside from that, most positions require you get a B or A endorsement on your license. We have but a few people still riding on the back of trucks yet people already with said endorsement AND driving experience applying for these jobs.
No, I have Progressive.Do you even have a passport?

His heart was visible, and the dismal sack that maketh excrement of what is eaten.

Yep and I don't have a problem with that at all. Jerry Rice said the same thing before Calvin Johnson broke his single season receiving record. Originally Posted by Devil

The source of the word, of course, is "Vik". "Bay" or "inlet" are the most common modern-English translations. To go "viking" was indeed the name of an activity, rather than that of a people. Originally Posted by Dickhead
Further complicating the picture is the fact that many Norse would spend some time raiding and some time trading--whichever seemed more promising at the time, given weather and a whole host of other variables. Sometimes a drakkar-ship would decide whether to trade or to raid based on the defences of the towns they encountered.Norse people who sailed around killing and pillaging were Vikings. But not all Norse individuals can rightly be called 'Vikings'.
You might want to look that one up. Conversion (often by force thanks to pleasant individuals such as "Saint" Olaf) didn't put much of a brake on the sword'n'slaughter stuff, any more than it did among already-converted Saxons or Franks. Kings using monotheism to unify their followings were then able to further organize their forces, resulting in body-counts after the viking age that dwarfed anything that had occurred when the drakkar-ships still plied the waters.Obviously upon converting to Christianity, anybody can understand that sailing around and butchering innocent people is wrong. That's why people stopped being Vikings.
Closer to (my) home, the first Norman duke (Hrolf Gangar, or "Rollo" as he's known in English) accepted nominal conversion for political gains (a very common reason among the highborn of the time, given the Roman church's power to bribe). However, as much as he contributed to local churches in Normandy, before he died he called upon--and made sacrifices to--his own ancestral gods. Playing both sides was nothing unusual in those times.
