Naw, you've helpfully rendered the term elsewhere:

In translation of the politically correct kind, this would be 'a person having carnal knowledge of commas'

What on earth does that mean, though? Starting early on the vodka again there, Sven? ;-)

Since I have been multiple times in Norway - Oslo, Ålesund (Innotown), Stavanger, Bergen etc and have written comunications stuff for various Norwegian companies (lead by Finns) - isn't it time you came here, and did away with all that saga stuff and got the facts?

Re: Siro (none / 0)

Thanks for the welcome, but actually I've been there twice, including Türku and Helsinki. Generally nice place, with many crazy people, in a positive sense.
