Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV



Never before has the title, "Settler" been more appropriate.

We have been well and truly settled!

So...any wagers on what will happen when the Finn "unstoppable force" meets the Apolyton "immovable object"?

Hmmm...?

But, does this mean that you attracted all these Flies - I mean, Finns - here on purpose?

Tell me...are you actually stealing land, because the cannon-fire involved in the first performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture in Stalingrad was so powerful that it sank half of Finland?

Tired of ads?

You obviously didn't reads Bugs' original post close enough.

It is a well-known fact that elks outnumber Finns 19.5:1. And what does elk mean? That's right, elk scrotums! There ar more than enough for all the 12 billions Finns, and still some left for export (mainly for use in traditional Chinese medicines).

It is so sad to see a Finlandi Forum Event Horizon occur in this forum We are all so familiar with this particular event, but I thought that the few Finns in Apolyton were not enough to go Critical Mass and communicate our existance to others in the Motherland. Ottok gave me a scare or two, but thankfully we got through it.
Well, thanks Bugs, we are in Situation Overloard.

TO ALL FINNS:
As a member of these boards, I can be very useful in supplying you information on some of the elements on these boards who may somehow try to fight your new and (hopefully) benevolent rule of these VBB forums. May I humbly suggest going after the Australians first?

Well Mr. Bunny has been fixated with Finland for quite some time now, I presume.
Still I have to respect the knowledge he has from a small scandinavian country, assuming he is not a double agent working for finnish security police force trying to catch the last remaining russian spies that are still corrupting our beautiful country with soviet thoughts.

Fun to read... this thread is spreading on the irc, at least I caught it from there.

LOL ... But you're right! There are about 12 billion of us in here, officially 5 billion, but as you said, 7 billion is hidden somewhere.

If I tell you the truth, even we don't know where the rest 7 billion lives. They have their own sub-culture somewhere underground, they have their own communities.

When the war had began in 40's, they suddenly apperared to defend Finland with us. But when the war was over, they disappeared as quickly as they had appeared.

Sisu=grit,guts and balls all at the same time.
[The average Finnish soldier knew in his bones, that on a man-to-man basis he was worth several of his adversaries. His ancestors, as far back as recorded Finnish history existed, had fought russians on this same soil and usually won. The Finn knew what he was fighting for and why. His stereotypical view of the Russian soldier was not flattering: Ivan was stupid, lazy, dirty, and incapable of initiative, and mentally opressed by the same forest environment that was second nature to the Finns. To be sure, the Finnish soldier was aware of the numerical odds against him, but he rendered those odds less terrible by crac´king jokes about them:"They are so many, and our country is so small, where will we find room to bury them all?"]

Do not be alarmed. There is no true Finnish language (other than Tolkien Elvish). This is a collection of random sounds designed to confuse others, a ploy developed by a group of Finns venting their frustration at failing to understand the rules of "Mornington Crescent".

No, we're going to get filthy rich.

Ah, yes, the "sauna" ovens. I've seen a video of these.

The victims, obviously under some sort of fiendish mind-control, walked right into the oven. But the heat must have broken the control: they got the door open and ran out, with their clothes burned off their bodies! Confused by the pain, they fell into a nearby river. Presumably they drowned.

Horrible.
