Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Pony trekking or camping,
Or just watching TV.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
It's the country for me.
You're so near to Russia,
So far from Japan.
Quite a long way from Cairo,
Lots of miles from Vietnam.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Eating breakfast or din ...[text shortened]... our mountains so lofty,
Your treetops so tall.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
Finland has it all.
and finland indeed is filled with sweden-jokes...

The Reason that everyone jokes about us is that we are just so good! At everything!

Looks like everyone's swilled all the liquor in record time so as to get to the personal insults.
What are some things Finns commonly compare Germans to? That's what I want to know.
However, i'd assume German = some kind of pickled cabbage, like elsewhere?!?
By the by, is that old Sammy Beckett on your avatar? Fair play to you, if it is!
Originally posted by sjegA Finn once told me a great many things concerning Germans, none of them complimentary, all of them hilarious. He said Swedes are not as noisy as Germans, but had nothing else good to say.

That is Mr Beckett impersonating Murphy, I am tempted to believe.
