I love reading comments on clips like this, Im from Sweden and im most certainly not uptight or easy to offend.. however there is a difference between making fun of a country or just being poorly educated about a country.
thats not even close to a swedish accent, so fucking offensive. how would an american feel if i went around talking like a canadian and saying its american
@lundh4 lol. The differences between a standard canadian accent and standard american accent are so miniscule, most native speakers wouldn't even know the difference without seriously listening for it. And even if you tried to exaggerate specifically canadian phonetics and call it american, no one would give a shit. bad analogy.
European countries act very provincial... it's pretty sad. In America people love to make fun of their own country and do not care when others make fun of them. But in European countries I've noticed, when someone makes fun of them they get very angry and offended. Lighten up!
Yeah kinda agree on that, standard culture, like here in sweden, most people easily gets butthurt from a single remark. :( It's kinda sad actually, so uptight we are!
@pekalr lol, right. besides, we don't even care to tell the difference b/n a swedish accent vs a german accent. this is just supposed to be a funny ad, making fun of Conan himself, and European's taste. laugh and move on.
OH MY FREAKING LORD, that's H. Jon Benjamin!!! He's Coach McGuirk on Home Movies, Satan in Lucy Daughter Of The Devil and the lead character in Archer!
Swedes shouldn't be offended; it's not making fun of Sweden and Swedes, it's making fun of Conan :) Don't worry, I'm Dutch and I live in the US. I'm often mistaken for anything from German to Danish to Russian. I couldn't care less.
Most swedes seem to find this funny, they' ve got some self-distance. Compare the reaction to the one from Russians about the song in "russian style" (Tingeling) that was performed at the swedish Eurovision contest... OUTRAGE!
As a Swede I'm offended and entertained at the same time. I love Conan and his humor, but I'm tired of Americans joking about Swedes/Sweden without knowing ANYTHING about us. Ask random American and you'll probably hear "Swedes are liberal sexy blondes who can't pronounce a single word in proper English". Please, I've been in U.S. many times and I speak better English than most people I met there, not to mention knowledge that few Americans know themselves about their own country.
skillnaden är means the difference is :) And the english that the two guys are talking is more the german style and if you ask me I don´t really think you can hear on his english if a guy is from sweden
It's neither Swedish nor German and I should know, 'caus I speak both languages. But it's definitly making fun of the Swedish Techno music culture. Just think about 'Basshunter'...
Gotta laugh tho I can't make out a single word of what they're saying. And if Swedish commercials was like that I'd have to hire an exorcist for my TV :P Conan FTW.
lol H Jon Benjamin

"Swedish commercial" ? The only Swedish about this is the two words "Skillnaden är" in the end!
Stop confusing us with Germany, it's getting really old...

What I find most funny are some of the comments: "We don't have Bud Light in Sweden :(" or "That is a German accent :("
