I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

If you come back at night, the statue of Leif comes alive and you can fight it instead; he drops a rare ring

I've been to that cafe and pet that cat! Good coffee - surprisingly good given the "quality" of the pizza I had in Iceland.

Iceland's coffee and burger games are top-notch. Never eat an Icelandic pizza.

They somehow burn every one I've gotten. Also the taste of the dough is just off, maybe it's the sulfur in the water that does it.

e: agreed on the hotdogs too.

I've tried it. (And by "tried," I mean that I allowed the very tip of my tongue to make contact with it, then downed 3 shots of schnapps to get rid of the taste). In Norway, though. The people who gave it to me did find it quite funny, so I guess it's doing its job.

Hakarl is just an excuse to down lots of brennivin to get rid of the taste.

Also, I had sheep's head in Iceland and it was surprisingly delicious:

Nah. Nah, there’s no way something that’s served with mammalian teeth intact is good

Just. Nah.

I consider myself pretty culinarily adventurous but I don’t think I could eat a sheeps face while I stare at its janky sheep teeth.

The cheek meat is the best part of sheep's head.

A lot of Icelandic cuisine (puffin, minke, horse, sheep head) requires an assessment of your moral compass.

I saw the first picture and started to make a joke about how the hell a person's supposed to dig into that plate, like obviously there is plenty of meat and edible stuff on the skull but it's just a straight up sheep face, do you just tuck in?

But, uh, apparently yes? God drat is that picked clean, I've seen people leave more of a mess with a rack of ribs.
