Get the Torille! mug.Means "to the market square".
Phrase which can be seen when someone foreign mentions Finland or something related to it. Or when Finnish person/group succeed internationally.
Finns are very proud of their country and its achievements but don't like to draw attention so it's common to write "torille" so only the Finnish people can understand your meaning.
Stem from 1995 when Finland won The Ice Hockey World Championships and everyone gathered to the market square to celebrate it. Same happened in 2011 and 2006 when Lordi won the Eurovision Song Contest.

Coined by Tasha Robinson of the AV Club to describe Danny Boyle's film "Sunshine"(2007).
Originating quote, from the review of "Sunshine"(2007) -
In many ways, Sunshine is a been-there-done-that cast-attrition thriller: Alien with an exterior monster instead of an interior one, Event Horizon with better effects and less gore, Pitch Black with the contrast turned way up. The cast members make wry jokes about getting eliminated one at a time, horror-movie style, but they still follow all the horror-movie procedures, even duly splitting up in a dangerous, unknown situation. It's like they've gracefully accepted that they're just hitting a series of predestined, genre-mandated marks. - Tasha Robinson, Onion A.V. Club
