Stranger Danger

There is a man. Outside my window. He is scraping away the snow from the streets. With a big shovel. Except it's not a shovel. It's bigger. Wider. He is what Swedish people define as "surgubbe". Look it up, n00b.


Because you are too lazy to look it up I have done you a favour and looked it up for you.


"surgubbe", "sur gubbe" or "den sure gubben": an old man that constantly nags, quarrels and makes disturbances and that the village's children are afraid of.


Or comes banging on your apartment door because he thinks you're playing your music too loud. Or 'cause you've stolen a Christmas tree.
