A ridiculous Norwegian "joke" that makes no sense. Apparently some people from a certain place in Norway pronounce the ice cream "båt-is" as "baot-is".
Person 1: Did you hear about the new meme on Artige?
Person 2: Yeah, the "baot-is"-joke is ridiculous.
Person 1: Agreed.

A type of best Norwegian icecream that has the shape of a loaded boat. Its proper name is båt-is. Western Norwegians (just like Faroese and icelanders in the farther west) normally pronounce the letter 'å' as 'ao', while in standard Norwegian it is like a simple 'o' in 'rock'.

A baot-is is a norwegian ice-cream made by the norwegian ice-cream factories Hennig Olsen and Diplom. It is shaped like a boat, and have become a very popular meme on the norwegian humor-website artige.no.

Must NEVER be confused with the swedish glass-båt!
-Eg skal ha ein baot-is
-Is it a boat?! Is it an ice-cream?! No! It's baot-is!
-You wanna come back to my place and... You know... Eat some baot-is?
