Copenhagen Subway Party 12:19 PM

The story:

In December 2010 a group of cool guys from my class at Copenhagen Business School decided that it would be cool to throw a party in the subway. And so they did. They created an event on facebook where 1600+ people were attending (not that many actually showed up, but holy carp it was packed!)

We were lucky enough not to get caught by the police or get fined, but the whole thing ended up in chaos at the second to last scheduled stop and we got thrown off the subway. Good times!

Here's a video I made:


Go mental for Distortion and be safe!

Stefan Denifl Is One Lucky SOB! 8:05 PM

Oh hello, car-that-could-have-killed-me-but-let-me-be-fit-enough-to-continue-the race! 

The only thing I can say is holy carp! I wonder how far the driver kept driving before he figured out that he almost killed someone. Look at that casual arm out the window! They're probably playing 20 questions or I spy with my little eye - maybe even Angry Birds on his iPhone (damn that game is addicting isn't it!?). 

Anyway, he didn't die or break anything - he's continuing Tour of California. What a badass.

LMFAO Are Awesome & Lauren Bennett Is Hot! 12:57 AM

This music video is fantastic. I'm sure that you've heard LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem and you've probably also seen the video. I always try to shuffle whenever this song comes on but I fail miserably every single time. Darn it!

I Found Skittles In Denmark! 6:53 PM

I've got good news for all of you Skittles lovers out there. I found them in Denmark. Finally! After 4 years of looking through every candy isle in every supermarket for the sole purpose of finding Skittles, I can now lean back in my chair and say to myself: "Lasse you rascal, you've done it!"

Skittles can be bought at Magasin's Mad&Vin store. I forgot to look at the price but it looks like it says DKK 20 for 1 of these Skittles packs - which is insanely pricey. But if you love them I suggest you go buy them.

Oh by the way, you can also buy Reese's Peanut Butter Cups there!

If you know of other places to get Skittles let me know below!

That's Life (of Lasse)! 6:22 PM

Og my god. This video is hilarious! It's kinda old, but it's Danish so it deserves to be on this page!


Now THAT's life! If you've ever had anything remotely like this happen PLEASE let me know!

Starbucks Opens ANOTHER Store At Copenhagen Airport!? 6:21 PM

As much as I love Starbucks and I want them open more stores in Copenhagen, I think it's weird that they open another store at the airport. They already have 2 out there! This one is placed in terminal 3. It'll be fun to see how many stores they can actually open at the airport. I bet you the luggage handlers are gambling illegally on the excact number of stores that will open within the next year. Poor Fernando will probably lose his life savings along with his sombrero if he doesn't stop gambling soon.

My suggestion: Open a store on Strøget.


Here's the original article

Peeing In Copenhagen Costs DKK 1000! 5:00 PM

Peeing in public now costs DKK 1000 (if you get caught by the police - otherwise it's totally free!) in Copenhagen. The fine used to be DKK 600 but I guess the streets are getting so flooded with piss that the state had to do something about it. Think about all the people that don't know how to swim!

Tips for not getting caught peeing in public:

1. Pee before you leave your house!
2. Don't pee in daylight!
3. Be quick! Practice forcing the pee out faster when at home.
4. Look like youre doing something else! If you're in front of a restaurant that has its menu on the wall - perfect! Look like you're reading the menu (preferably without using your hands).
5. Be a cop. Cops don't care about the rules - they can do what they want.
6. If you pee in a plastic bag you're not really showing your genitals (or pee) in which case you're not really peeing in public - but in a plastic bag.


The article below also states that it now costs DKK 3000 in fines to get in a fight or provoke others to get into a fight. If you're just being drunk on the street doing stuff like kicking a street sign you'll have to either pay DKK 1000 with your life savings or win them on sports betting. Either way, we're screwed.

What Guys Do In The Bathroom 7:45 PM

So I dared this guy to take a dump in the urinal. Unfortunately he couldn't do it, but as you can tell from his facial expression he tried his best!

DTF Travel - Disturbing Much? 5:07 PM

So there's this Danish travel agency in Denmark called DTF Travel. Really!? Down To F*ck Travel?  You couldn't have thought of a better name?

I found an ad for DTF Travel in the newspaper today.

I can't be the only one who thinks this is kind of disturbing:

How Many Years Do Danes Spend Being Hungover? 8:55 PM

According to this article "Pass the painkillers: The average Brit Spends More Than Five YEARS Of Their Life With A Hangover" from the Daily Mail, Brits spend on average 5 years being hungover. The article states that the average Brit gets drunk at least once a week and are hungover 60 days per year from age 21 - 38. Then the frequency naturally declines.

Pretty interesting stuff - I never thought about this. However, now I start thinking. My friends and I go out 2 times per week. Sometimes 3. This one crazy Swede that I know went out 5 times (Holy Carp!) in a row a couple of weeks back. If the Brits spend 5 years being hungover, then us Danes (and this freakin awesome Swede whose name shall remain a surprise) must spend at least 8 or 9! If we go out twice as many times during the 17 years from 21 to 38 then we must also be hungover twice as many times. It's at least 8 or 9 years dude! When you die you've spent a tenth of your life feeling like sh*t! The sad part is that I'm actually kind of proud of it.

Let's not stop here!

What do we eat when we are hungover? We eat junk food, chips or something like that, right? We then eat junk food 2 times a week - and don't forget the pizza slice or cheeseburgers when you are actually out drinking, so let's say 3 times per week just to round off. We eat 3 meals a day. 3*7 = 21. 3/21 = 1/7! One seventh of ALL of our our meals are junk food. This means that at least once a week you eat a Big Mac meal for breakfast, probably something a little healthy for lunch like a Chicken, Bacon & Ranch footlong sub, and a Whopper Meal for Dinner. And you do this  884 times (17*52) in your primetime. Coolio.

Well, I'll see you Thursday, Friday and Saturday! Let's get wasted!

SKÅL!

Dog Talks 4realz! 1:06 PM

I so got the munchies when I watched this video. Mable flavored bacon sounds soo good!

I Just Crashed On My Bike 11:19 AM

 I just crashed on my bike. Thought you might like this crotch shot. It's for the ladies.

It was a pretty serious crash though. The brakes on my bike don't work anymore and the chain keeps falling off, which was why I crashed. Forutnately for me (unfortunately for you as it would have been a great story) I didn't really get injured. I got this scratch on my knee that stings though, so If you have a knee fetisch I'm sorry to disappoint you, but there will be no licking tonight.

This little stunt will probably cost me this month's rent. The weird thing about this crash was when it happened the only thing I could think of was: "Holy carp! I can totally blog about this!"

Have a nice day.

Cheap Monday Party In Copenhagen 4:33 PM

Cheap Monday in Copenhagen threw a pretty awesome party last night with free beers and random live bands that were actually kinda good. This is the first time I've actually been at this store.

I didn't know that there was a guest list so now everybody at Cheap Monday thinks my name is Christian. Oh well, don't judge me - they had free beers!


I usually don't go to these store parties but this one was pretty cool. Too bad they ran out of beer after 2 hours, but I guess that's kinda long since there were hundreds of people.


Here are some pictures! If you find the owl I'll send you something!*

 This guy is such a nazi. A cool nazi though. Okay, he's not really a nazi. He's German though. Well, he has a Danish mom. It's Tobias - http://soundcloud.com/tbs

I don't know this chick, but she went to Starbucks with me last week! Okay, I know her - it's Christina. I just pretend like I don't know her because she gets kinda weird sometimes.

* There's no owl.

Soccer: FCK - Sønderjyske @ Parken 7:18 PM

So, I love Sundays. I guess it's the combination of no school or work and an entire day of soccer on tv! I got some free tickets to the FC København / Copenhagen game and I thought that I'd mix it up and go see some live soccer instead of taking care of my hangover.

But what's live soccer without betting on the result!? Of course I had to bet on the game - and of course I won as FCK won 3-0. A rather one-sided affair, which is always awesome when it's your team that's WINNING (Sheen)!

Parken

Because it's May 1 today Fælledparken was totally crowded and when I walked through the park (it's right next to the FCK stadium) it smelled like a combination of piss and waffles. Now, I don't know about you but piss and waffles isn't my favorite deodorant. I'm not really a big fan of May 1 but if you're visiting Copenhagen Fælledparken is the place to be if you want to experience some culture.
