Never heard it... not that the only Finnish word most Swedes know is "Perkele!", but no. (Though the Finns I knew were more likely to say "Vittu!")

I once had a very drunk Swedish Finn tell me that "you cannot take Finnish Swedish seriously, THEY ALL SOUND LIKE MOOMINTROLLS!". So Yeah ...

They are teenagers, they swear in any language they can. Especially those they hope the teachers don't understand.

Well, I think the popularity of "fuck" has something to do with Americanese being especially kewl... ;)

Does one really choose the swears one uses? Personally I use mostly "fuck" and "fan" , but that isn't because I chose them, it's more like they are the most common and so thus more ingrained(?)/comes easier.

Probably not consciously, no. But given that people can both stop themselves from swearing and start swearing on purpose, they might.

He's been in the comic a few times. The one about the US healthcare reform, the one about the rocket accident above Norway and the one about Scandinavian comedies.

In Space , I don't know why but lately I prefer the "portraits" over the comics.

Funny thing about *humon is I knew about her works for a few years but only ever read/looked at her Team Fortress 2 Webcomics. It was only after I started reading Axis Powers Hetalia that I started reading this.

That being said, this is basically the Western World's Axis Powers Hetalia, but I love it just as much as APH.

Sweden is quite a douchebag.

I'm kind of neutral to Scandinavia And The World (despite or because of being Swedish), but the last few strips have been pretty darn funny. Especially the shampoo bottle slash one.

just bugs me all the comment section to the entries suffer from the same problem; there's the first comment that's generally a bit on topic, then a dozen people commenting on the first guy's sig, so that they can get on the first page of comments. Fucking deviantart.
