apropos kjøttkaker 

Norwegian expression used for changing the subject to something totally unrelated.
Originated around a dinner table 20 minutes by car north-east of Oslo, when the older sister of the house had something more to say about meatballs. Widely used in some circles in Oslo and the areas around Oslo.
Can be translated to English like this: "Speaking of meatballs"

In English: Speaking of meatballs, I got an A on my essay.

Mark: This has to be a complete change of subject and totally unrelated to the current topic.
Adropos may be used to characterize a lot of different behaviors where a man (never a woman!) acts with unparalleled manner. It is the ultimate characterization that a man from Cyprus may ever receive. It is very difficult for someone to reach such a state and you may never be able to come across an Adropos. Most Adropoi (plural of Adropos) may be found in the Kingdom of Aradippou (a city-state-kingdom) in Cyprus. (for the ignorants; Adropos is ALWAYS written with two “omikron” and never with an “omega”)
En mialos Adropos olan! (slung Cyprus dialect)
