...you misspell "e-mail" as "emil" in an important message and it takes you several re-reads to see the problem.

I was laughing at this a couple months ago and then I did the EXACT SAME THING LAST WEEK

It's surprisingly easy. Also, when things like "and then I Lallid and hid under a table" or "you can hold the matches but don't pull an Emil" make it into your daily vocabulary, and you have to be really careful not to say those around non-Minnions
also
Mom: I read a bit of this webcomic that you were interested in. Are you still following that?
Me: *pauses to contemplate the ridiculousness of not following*
Me: HOW FAR DID YOU GET?
Mom: um. They were talking about some kind of illness? And somebody wanted to go get his grandma? I don't know, it wasn't very interesting.
Me: OK, that's the prologue. It gets more plot-ish later. You should keep reading.
Mom: ... ... *walks out*

When you see this photo (and also the next couple photos - I can't directly link it, so you'll have to scroll down a bit) and immediately think of how proud Sigrun and Emil would be if they found that place...

Why, Piney, with so many graphic novels and comics out there, however will you choose one?!? 

Srsly, we'd like to see that future essay if you ever feel like sharing it.  It would be interesting to see how a fan who is knowledgeable about art and cartooning explains SSSS in an academic context.

Er, it was in-class on paper, and not necessarily supposed to be in an academic context. It was just an "I like this thing because..." and simple as that. Think he only called it an essay because he wanted more than just one paragraph. It's closer to a review :P

Recently I saw ads about Nordic Weeks in St.-Petersburg. At first glance on it I thought there was something wrong with Nordic Council emblem...

When your friend is texting you about homework, and you misread 'finish' as 'Finnish', 'toll' as 'troll' and 'hassle' as 'hasten'.
Also that moment when you're texting back an answer, and autocorrect changes 'derivative' to 'damn Vaettur'.

I laughed at the "damn Vaettur".
I wish to know how this expression ended up in your autocorrect options. ::)

When you're looking at the extra credit question on your computer science midterm and upon seeing mentions of Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, and Swedish, automatically think "SSSS"

Also when you spew a sentence in multiple languages and realize belatedly that your limited Norwegian/Swedish vocabulary has worked its way into your lexicon without you noticing
