Why not compromise and have a Swedish death sandwich? Or pastrami metal?

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

So I heard about the new logo for Paris 2024. The face must be referencing fashion, something Paris is famous for.

Now I have to brace myself for a barrage of speculative comparisons to the logos of the far right National Rally and Brothers of Italy parties, but we had the flame for the modern Olympic movement for years, long before the immigration policy drama. Also, the first modern Olympic flame came from the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam (you can thank Jan Wils, the founding member of the De Stijl movement). Only the relay part started in 1936.

Genuinely excited for Paris 2024, though I'm also excited - though to a lesser extent - Tokyo 2020.

There was a joke about the logo but I'm pretty sure it'd cross that PG-13 line. Shame.

Not a lot of listening pleasure to be had from a pastrami sandwich, though.

Really?
All the gurgling, burping and farting after eating a pastrami sandwich are "silent"?

Well, there we go with the varying definitions of the term 'listening pleasure', I guess.
Since Lillorainen's geography is currently being overhauled a 'tiny' bit, most information on it posted before December 12, 2018, is not entirely reliable anymore. Until there's a new, proper factfile, everything you might need to know can be found here. Thank you. #RetconOfDoom (Very late update, 2020/08/30 - it's still going on ...)
