As a Norwegian it is mandatory to attend English classes from an early age, and it is common to learn a 3rd language as well. Most Norwegians go to our equivalent of high school (age 16 to 19). Those who wants to be accepted by a university

If they only "looked" it would not be too bad, but they did much more here. They threatened to release credit card numbers, user names, emails and passwords of customers. Do you think it's fair that someone's personal information is release

Groundhog Day. It's a comedy with some dark elements in it. And it's also something that I would like to experience myself so long as I could resume normal time when I wanted to. A day with no consequences would be fun.

From my view as a Scandinavian your culture seems much more obsessed about sex and punishment than you should. 3-strike system and schools with "zero tolerance" policies are unthinkable here. I also think it's strange to see how you try to
