Norwegianism #3

Norwegians number their weeks. As in the week of January 1st is the first week and so on and so forth. So, for example, you might be asked to come in for an interview in week 14. Not the first week of April, but week 14. This gets quite confusing late into the year, for both foreigners and Norwegians alike. You might think that with all this confusion, Norwegians would maybe be keen on updating their system. Too bad they're too stubborn for that.

In other breaking news, while Nintendo's new wannabe apple device was subject to ridicule and doomed to fade into obscurity, the Japanese game designing company 冗談 came out with a funky, bollywood version of Guitar Hero. This delightful game, known as Sitar Hero, hits stores worldwide on Friday. Game creator Irujaki Minonoki is quoted as saying 私のゲームは驚きで市場、雌犬〔あばずれ〕の上のどんな他のゲームからのソックスも揺り動かすことができます！ はい、それは正しくて、私がたとえ年を取っていて、醜悪であるとしても、ゲームデザインの王で、漁師のようなにおいがします about his new game. Don't just listen to him though, go test it out for yourself.
