Norwegian here, but I've visited Denmark a couple of times. Went to Legoland once.

I also met a rather charming Danish woman in Ireland last year, and apparently she's coming to Trondheim where I study this summer. Like the gentleman I think I am, I kindly agreed to give her a tour.

Oh, I have some Danish blood too, I think, on my mother's side way back in the 1700s. Nobility at that!

Pretty much sums up my relations to Denmark.

[sub]Also, I can't understand Danish for the life of me. Sorry.[/sub]

EDIT: Thought of something else. Carlsberg is pretty good. Tuborg is definitely not.

Lego is amazing. Thus I have to tip my hat to the entire country of Denmark.



I should visit someday.

My friend is Danish in heritage. I'm Norwegian in heritage. We're constantly bickering about who's country is better. Though on the whole we're like Denmark and Norway in SATW. Only without all the implied sex.

WOW! Then we might be related! I'm a baroness so....

Norwegian, so I guess you can say I have a history with Danes. There was this time they controlled us for 400 years...
My Norwegian teacher is fluent in Danish by the way. We use to give her some of this:
I've been to Bornholm. It was nice, but I wasn't very lucky with the weather.

And while I have a good relation with Denmark (the hostility is only in jest), I have to say: Your number system really sucks...

Hey, I'm Danish!

And yes, I do have a vast lego collection. You never get too old for it, you just upgrade [http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/10030_Imperial_Star_Destroyer] a bit.

[small]And I can even prove it when I get around to renewing my passport[/small]

Should probably plug the new user group [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/Danish-Escapists] as well.

Danish here! Amusing fact: more than 80% of Denmark's land area is agricultural!
That's just because you have no mountains like real manly countries do :p

But we have 4 times as many pigs as humans!

...I forgot where I was going with this.

Indeed, that sounds like a compelling point in favour of Denmark. (If you had used them for bacon instead of those sausages, that is)
Are you sure you counted right though? It's pretty easy to mix up Danes and pigs, after all.

This is the scary part: Even though I have lived my whole life in Denmark, I have NEVER seen a pig! Besides in the Copenhagen zoo!!!! WHERE DO THEY HIDE THEM???? Maybe that is just the Copenhagen girl speaking...

That is how we roll here. Why say words when you can make sounds? lol.

Proud Dane! The happiest place on earth :) Copenhagen is the city i live in, tho I'm originally from Næstved.

And Lego is awesomeness in small bricks.

Any questions about our proud little nation, feel free to ask. :p

I assure you it's excluding the two legged ones.

...Hey, don't you go insult our primary export goods! Those pigs are of the finest quality, I will not have the likes of you demean their glorious baconian reputation.

Try going like 1 km outside of Copenhagen.. Plenty of pigs :D The place where my parents live is real close to a pretty big pigfarm, so i know a thing or two about piggy's being the country boy that i am.

EDIT: I fail at quoting.
