Imagine being in high school and hearing your friends say things like "You, me, fika, now." or "I want to fika so bad right now." As we all recall from our high school days, that was a time when our minds were in the gutter and something as simple as a yo mama joke could make us bust up laughing. That was what this video was to me.
It made me want to know more about Sweden and Scandinavian humor. Which is, in my opinion, one the dirtiest and funniest forms of dry humor I have ever seen.
These commercials were popular in the last year or so. This one is the original, the one that never aired in America and has since been taken off YouTube. So some of you may be familiar with the punch line to this long standing joke, but for those of you that aren't, you are in for a treat.
This was actually pretty funny! I must admit that I thought the worst, and was pleasantly surprised when it was just about coffee. Dry humor is the best kind, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI remember this commercial when it came out! I think everyone who wasn't Swedish or had a knowledge of the Swedish language were all thinking the same thing. I mean, it was pretty convenient that it was always a man and woman looking at each other whenever he mentions "fika". Still a funny commercial.
