Hahaha yes. Sadly, I think neither of the books are translated to English (if you don't speak Finnish or Swedish, that is).

Nope I'm afraid not. I've got English and a bit of Spanish and enough Japanese to understand when the occasional Japenese tourists are giggling at me for my Totoro bag, but that's it. On the bright side I have a Norwegian friend who I might be able to pay in food to read to me.
I saw the future.

I sense a reminder from the earliest days of the thread is needed...

When you have in the clock app on your phone in the "world clock" section both Helsinki and Reykjavik saved so you can always check the time in Finland and Iceland to see about how much longer until an update might get posted.

Ahaha yep. My world clock always has at least three places saved: New York City (my time zone), wherever my dad is, and Helsinki.
Hmmm.
*goes to add Reykjavik*

I'm definitely guilty of being able to do this. Currently it's 3:26 in Reykjavik! :P

Iceland's local time is identical to UTC all year 'round, and I know my timezone's UTC offset at all times, so I have that down pat. (By the way, we all'll be having one of those turns of the year again.)

Finland does DST - and since they're a EU member, I suppose their DST switching is pinpointed by the same EU regulation as Germany's. Nonetheless, just adding a Helsinki entry to my clocks is simpler than doublechecking, so ... ::)

Here's a good one; somebody's overly-steamy shower sets off the fire alarm and wakes you up. Instead of thinking 'fire!' you for some reason think 'troll!'

Thats a very good one! Haven't had any fire alarms set off lately here but I would probably do the same XD

I keep referring to things as being the "most best" and people are starting to wonder if I'm okay. My brother's comment today when I said we were at the most best beach: "don't you mean it's the best beach?" My response: "No! It's the most best! You don't understand!"

My friend was trying to name his Pokémon Go account and was putting things like 'TheBest' in as usernames. These were all obviously taken, so I snatched it away and put MostBest in. He just looked at me weird and changed it. I didn't even get to see if it was taken...

You know you're an addict when you ignore all your friends jaunting about the town playing Pokemon GO because a new page is up.

... I suddenly wonder what happens if you run PoGO and point the camera at an SSSS page showing a bit of body horror? Can that AI get inspired?

Cool idea, but I'm afraid not. Pokémon go works with AR (argumented reality), not with AI.
