Funny is

Hmmmmn. It seems that only Scandanavians will see humor in an animated 'circus elephant addicted to a cocktail of uppers and downers who is used by his keeper to store heroin inside him.' Go figure.

    I know the feeling. I don't think I ever saw my Norwegian grandparents smile. Maybe if they'd had an elephant full of drugs, my visits might have been more amusing.

    I wonder if there are any internationally known Norwegian comedians.

  2. All of my Norwegian relatives are hilarious. And they laugh incessantly it seems. But we English-speakers don't know what they're laughing at.
