The 'New' Finland

Hi,
Here it comes, an example.

OK Thanks - but no hint given as to WHY razor blades - hardly THAT valuable no matter how easily they can be stolen, not really used THAT much (just look at the number of men running around with these phony 2-3 mm 'beards,') so many use electric shavers, etc.etc. Just curious - still.

Guy in raincoat with a Bogart accent: "Hey, buddy, wanna buy some razor blades?"

Yeah, man! Yesterday I was walking in Kamppi and there were Sharia Police walking around ordering women to put burkas. They also caught a random blue-eyed Finnish man and beat him for no reason. The day before that they took down the Finnish flag from the presidential palace and replaced it with the Muslamic flag.
Today I was too afraid to even walk outside! Sharia Law Police were confiscating koskenkorva bottles!

It all has changed in the New Finland, or should I call it Wilayat Finlandstan! Wake up, sheeple!!!!1!!

Actually, there is a novel "Ajatolla Veikko" by Staffan Bruun from 1995. Finland as an Islamic Republic.

[Oho]

Really. I did not realize situation if Finland had deteriorated that far, well from my perspective not sure about yours, that quickly. I am ever happier for picking up the offer and leaving the likely financial and intellectual bankruptcy in the making.

In the article it says that the law is due to change this year. When is/was it due?
It was darn short-sighted of the government to want to impose some of the costs of policing on businesses without considering the social costs associated with higher delinquency.

Yeah, can't just be guys trying to shave off a few Euro from their personal hygiene bill, can it?

Got the answer today from Lidl person I know - he showed me a small pkg of 2 blades for 20€!!

Unbelievable as I get great result from a 15 cent orange Bic razor - and have for years and years.

But Bic isn't the best a man can get.
I jumped from the multi blade cartridge wagon during the transition from two to three blades. Now I pay happily the 15€ for 100 blades for my Merkur 34c.
