tuxedo gin plz close this thread it was briefly amusing to remind people that place like finland actually exists but I think everyone's in on the joke by now every extra moment spent thinking about finland is a moment wasted so let the forums forget the finn and drift on to happier things

unfortunately, prime swampland is still a few miles off. there's a small lake and a tiny but determined stream of water, though. it's nice and post-apocalyptic, here in vantaa

quakster posted:*checks wikipedia* "15000 litres of detergent released into the water in 1995" I don't know if you're asking in earnest or not, but historically shipping things via rivers was the most efficient way to move product. Also a lot of plants ran on water power.

Tuxedo Gin posted:i actually like finland. i've been there twice. ate reindeer and bear and elk and arctic brambleberry icecream. Just to poo poo on the finnish myths or whatever no one actually eats bear. Elk is fairly rare. Reindeer is sometimes eaten but it's mostly really rare as food outside of lapland. I have the other two now and then, but I've only eaten bear once in my life and it was at a super fancy russian restaurant. e: So basically tourists shovel that poo poo down but no one actually living in finland does. Elk and Reindeer, sometimes. I mean poronkäristys is great and all but I challenge any finns in the thread living south of Oulu to claim they have that poo poo at any regularity.

Tuxedo Gin posted:yeah the bear was at a russian place in helsinki Reindeer meat has a pretty weird uriney flavor to it which takes a bit to get accustomed to. It makes for some mean-rear end potato casserole stuff though. I think the main reason people don't eat it down south is that it's somewhat expensive down here.

SmokaDustbowl posted:do finland and sweden even know what horses are You would think the finn might know something of horses but nah, not real horses anyway. They have a really lovely, runty breed of horse there that's good for nothing that probably descends from an eastern line of domesticated animals rather than a northern one. It's appropriately called the finnhorse. Historically and in pre-modern times those would get ditched when you had money and any other breed was available.

hard counter posted:You would think the finn might know something of horses but nah, not real horses anyway. Actually finnish bog horses had their moment in world war 2 where they hauled shitload of materials in conditions where mechanical things just failed. (Soviets never thought that conditions could be that lovely in finland) And finnish horses aren't meant for riding they are meant for hauling heavy loads. Nurge posted:Just to poo poo on the finnish myths or whatever no one actually eats bear. Elk is fairly rare. Reindeer is sometimes eaten but it's mostly really rare as food outside of lapland. I have the other two now and then, but I've only eaten bear once in my life and it was at a super fancy russian restaurant. well i have freezer full of elk meat. it makes great ingredient to pizzas. i have eaten reindeer as well but that meat wasnt for my liking and i could buy some bear meat as well if i ever wanted it.
