I don't know how can anyone consider Norway the best country to live unless he/she likes cold weather. It's really cold out there, I consider Poland to be way to cold for comfort but Norway is in a league of its own when it comes to freezing your ass.

We get through the winters by wearing clothes and having sex. With gorgeous, non-fat,women.
In many ways it is socialist and it's sickening how so many leftists defend Norway and want the US to be like Norway.
That's actually a detriment. Low population growth plus low immigration rate equal small workforce.
Norway is the best country in the world to live in according to HDI (human development index). So I read somewhere that Norway is socialist? Is it true?

I don't think they're any more socialist than we are. They're just better at it. Fern
we have a post office yet no state medical care or energy generation?
we need to get our priorities straight
Is it true or is it just stereotype that a lot of Swedish woman are gorgeous blue-eyed blondes?
It's parliamentary and democratic, but because they take care of their people, the right wing can't stand that a system like that works, and therefore insult it by calling it socialist, which has negative connotations to them; wouldn't want to assist people!
Norway slaps a 24% tax on all imports coming into their country and total tax revenue is 45% of their GDP. This US currently has around 25% and we still think we are taxed too high.
Yeah, the criteria are subjective and, IMO, a bunch of huey.
I lived and worked there one Winter. Luckily for me it was one of their warmer Winters. But it's still damn cold, and dark most of the time. It was hella expensive. And I'm a fan of Southern food, including Italian and French, not so much things like boiled salmon and boiled potatoes. I mean no disrespect, but it ain't even on my radar screen.

My sister had an internship in Norway over a summer. She talked about the food over there and how bland it is. They also laughed at her when she asked for butter for her potato. And the night they had "american" food at the university she was interning. The people went crazy for pizza. The school banned "american" good nights after that lol.

Was this in 1940? That story sounds completely made up.
Pizza is pretty common in Europe. Especially considering it came from here. She must have been interning in a mountain village or something with a bunch of people raised by wolves in order for their to be so much commotion over pizza and a subsequent ban. I'm definitely calling shens.
I haven't been to Ås but we're talking about a town with 16,000 people. Banning food is ridiculous. Far more likely is that they wanted different food at their get togethers and your sister tells the story as if it was banned since she didn't get to keep serving pizza and sloppy joes.
I'll let a Norwegian speak up on butter on the potato but in Sweden that's perfectly normal and I can't imagine it being different there. Far, far, far more likely is that your sister tried to put a stick of butter on her potato and they thought she was disgusting.
