Uhm... well it could be true (more or less) but this is a very rude way to express such an opinion, isn't it?

No that's not true, Sweden are more positive towards foreign culture and people than most countries
And Sweden have a strong feminist lobby, they're behind this law that makes it illegal to visit a prostitute, Swedes are not 'the greatest hypocrites of all'
Scandinavians are snot-nosed about all countries not lying close to the north pole
That's a really stupid comment, what the hell do you know about this Larsen?
Alexandra was frank and outspoken in her blog, like Elin, don't take it so seriously Bruno

You said Scandinavians are snotty towards other countries and I wonder where you got this from?
Maybe you mean Denmark not Sweden?
Denmark is known to be a bit chauvinist actually
It's a sign of ignorance to view Scandinavia as one country, it's like saying the countries by the Mediterranean are all the same country
Any comments?

Perhaps we should just try to tollerate things that may be said in fun, but which for whatever reason we don't find funny, and accept that no offence was meant, then we can get back to the task at hand. ie, making fun of the Australians.
Then everyone can have a good time.
