Plocka päron i motvind

A famous swedish saying that interpretes you are having trouble doing an easy task because of external circumstances. The saying directly translated would be something like "Picking pears against the wind". -Ulf Skönberg
Two friends, Lisa and Erik, try to set up a tent during a camping trip, but the wind is strong.

Lisa: "Why is it always like this when we set up the tent? Everything flies around!"

Erik: laughs "It's like 'picking pears against the wind.'"

Lisa: "Yes, really. But we'll have to fight on. It has to come up at some point."

Erik: "We'll fix it, despite the headwind."

Två vänner, Lisa och Erik, försöker sätta upp ett tält under en campingresa, men det blåser kraftigt.

Lisa: "Varför är det alltid så här när vi ska sätta upp tältet? Allt flyger omkring!"

Erik: skrattar "Det är som att 'plocka päron i motvind.'"

Lisa: "Ja, verkligen. Men vi får väl kämpa vidare. Det måste ju stå upp någon gång."

Erik: "Vi fixar det, trots motvinden."

I lost the game!

This game is something that started at a Jazz Band of a School.
The rule of the game is where if you know it, the game started.
Every time you get reminded by somebody about the game, you have to say that you lost the game.
Even though you just suddenly think about it, that includes it as a reminder.
You might want to spread this game to many people and start the trend.
And now that you also know this, THE GAME HAS BEGUN.
A friend that Knows The Game: Blah Blah Blah
You Who also Knows The Game: THE GAME.
Your friend: I LOST THE GAME!

i candy

Looking at a naked girl from behind and on all fours the vagina and anus look like an “i”. Different from “eye candy” which is someone that is pleasing to the eye.
