A conversation stripped of politeness and superficiality. In essence, getting straight to the point and adressing issues considered taboo or uncomfortable, which ultimately will lead to realisation of the self and openness in society.
English translation - «the almond talk». Originates from the Norwegian expression «to walk around the porridge», similar to «beating around the bush». A Norwegian christmas tradition is to eat rice pudding with one almond hidden in the kettle, the person finding the almond in their bowl wins a marzipan pig. «Mandelpraten» is therefore implying going straight to the juicy part of the conversation, defying the social norms of small talk, bullshit and exaggerated courtesy.

Get the Mandela catalougue mug.Character from the show Dan VS. He seems to be a center of bad luck almost everywhere he goes. But does he let it get to him?
...Yes. Yes he does, often with crazy results due to him overreacting. I mean, it's kind of obvious, because the dude wears a shirt that says JERK on the front.
His only two friends are Chris, a man who is 1/16th Canadian and an AMAZING cook, and Elise, Chris's wife and a secret agent with access to an UNBELIEVABLE amount of deadly weaponry.
A short list of his actions and the offending object that led to it (if available):
Destroyed Canada through the use of an iceberg (Overly Sticky Maple Syrup)
Stole explosives, blew up a used car dealership, AND dropped a vertigo-inducing chemical weapon over a city (Traffic)
Assault and battery of a telemarketer (SHOULD BE OBVIOUS)
Caused disruptive action in a courtroom (Jury Duty)
Wedding Crasher (Ex-Girlfriend (DON'T ASK ME HOW HE GOT ONE))
Assaulting a group of balloonists with an alien spaceship (Car crash)
Blew up an animal shelter (Interrupted sleep)
Somehow taking control of the U.S. Nuclear weapons system.
