Lagom 

A swedish word that's allegedly untranslatable. But it basically means ''not too little not too much just right'' However, even if it sounds like it, it doesn't mean balanced or moderate, it has a more satisfying tone to it, but at the same time not ideal or excellent. If something is lagom it's not ideal but rather preferably and at the same time acceptable. Kind of ideal but in a lazy kind of way.

''Yo Tommy, was the coffee too strong?''
''No Dave, it was lagom.''

lagom 

A Swedish word that describes an amount. It originates from the vikings. If they only had one cup to drink beer from, it was passed around the table, and each person should only drink an amount that made sure everybody would get some (Laget om = For everyone in the team). Therefore the amount is not always the same. If they had a lot of beer, they could drink more and the other way around. Basically it means "the perfect amount". However it has been defined (as a student prank) in the city of Lund, Sweden so you can actually go there to find out the exact definition...

- How much food do you want?

- Lagom (i.e. not too much, not too little)

- How far are we walking?
- Lagom

blue lagoon

A public toilet, so-named because of the color of its water, which has a blue hue due to the use of a disinfectant product which is released with every flush. (Also, coincidentally -- and appropriately, the title of a Brooke Shields movie.)

Gas Station Manager:

"Goddamit, Zeke. That last fat bastard who pulled in here left a big ol' stinkin' turd floatin' in the blue lagoon. Son-of-a-bitch won't flush. Now get in there and fish it out."

Gas Station Attendant:

"Fuck you. I quit."
