  • The host is actually one of Norway's leading comedians. His speciality is being disrespectful to anything, and defending the politically incorrect with a serious face. There was some noise when he burnt the American flag on television a while ago.

    The "Eastern European hate" is actually the opposite, though. The host is making fun of these kind of attitudes by making them look ridiculous.

  • Just a little thought about Carlsen being so strong at a young age. Imagine him sitting at home analyzing one of his games. He s thinking to himself, "hmm, i would like a second opinion, but who should i call?" He looks at his phone and think, lets ask a friend, Kasparov, Kramink or Anand? Kasparov? Naa, he probably demans 10 grand for 10 minutes. Lets ask Kramink, he talks so much and probably would help for free. "hey Mr Kramink, i ve got a question for you" LOL

  • @Etrajbe The negative associated with a nerd and geeks is that they dont fit in with there age group that all, there no deeper mean to it.

  • @Etrajbe That is not how i define the word it is how dictionary defines it. Still words are meant to express ideas and so you can basicly associate any mean you want to it.

    As for the part of not being normal one exemple would be the adults who do live roleplaying games and another would be the kids who would rather study science then go out and party.

    If you compare them to the general public they are not in the norm of society thus abnormal.

  • @UnderDog988 Well than thats just the way u define the word, imo the road from nerd to intellectual is shorter than from normal to intellectual. Also what? having interest that arent normal? sounds like the recipe for a good human? Not following the herd? doing what u like? Embracing individualism. Who cares about whats "normal"? "too mature" well thats retarded to mean in a negative way..

  • @Etrajbe A loser is defined as someone who loses... Like you can lose at life, not having friends or social skills. Loser doesn't mean nerd or geek it means inferior at something whether it at a sport or basicly anything.

    Nerd is a negative word, being a nerd doesn't mean your smart it mean that your intrest aren't normal for your age whether there to mature or not mature enough. What your talking about is being an intellectual which is not directly related to being a nerd.

  • @UnderDog988 Its nerdy in the real word it is, a geek is not a looser a nerd is not a looser, what the fuck is a looser? probably someone who has a weak brain imo. a nerd/geek is not a negative word its a super good word, it defines someone who has an INTELLECTUAL hobby/interest, a hobby of the brain, wether it be science or chess or gaming or whatever, it has nothing to do with losers lmao, it has to do with living and being smart, dont use them as negatives, they are not.

  • lol....It must be Me son! The British school system has produced most of the greatest minds the world has ever seen. Hawkins, newton, Darwen, Shakespear, Wordsworth..etc

  • @nighterjay Jodeling isn't even Norwegian. Either the British schoolsystem fails epicly, or it's just you.

  • @bananosbjarne Why would I have ever watched norwegian TV to learn about this guy? Only Norwegians watch Norwegian Tv...That says it all for Me. Now back to Your Jodeling!!

  • @nighterjay Thats the frikin point. Its a comedy show and he always asks ridiculous questions. Know what your talking about before you throw your trash around.
