Danskjävlar 

Swedish for: Danish devil.

Curse-word used by both danes and swedes but with two different meanings. Swedes use it litterally meaning scoundrel, but are typically not aware of the ironic double meaning of the word:
In the eyes of Danes, Swedes are a bit righteous, uptight and often display an amusing lack of humor. The word was invented and popularised in the Danish horror-comedy "the kingdom" by Danish cult director Lars von Trier. In the series, "Dansjävler" is often spoken by a righteous/foolish Swedish doctor when frustrated by Danes not living up to his strict scientific/moral standards. So the word is used by Danes to make fun of Swedes when they dont understand Danes because Swedes are full of themselves.
He fucked my sister and she is only 18. That's not morally defensible because he is 23, that Danskjävlar.

I was supposed to park there but he quickly passed me and stole the parking space, that Danskjävlar

DANSKJÄVLAR 

dansk-yevla It's a swedish term mening "DANISH DEVILS". It was famed by Lars von Triers horror/hospital tv-series "Riget" where a swedish doctor used to yell it from the top of Rigshospitalet which is one of the tallest buildings in Copenhagen, but I believe it has been in use much longer. I think english should adopt it.
Example: "The danskjävlar is so angry that we use the swedish term smörgås about their delicious smørrebrød." (I know that no american would be able to say smørrebrød, so maybe a bad xample)

Swedish bureaucrat: "Mr. Priemminister, Skåne is getting invaded"
Primeminister: "DANSKJÄVLAR"
More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
