At times dark, funny and sad, Last Words captures life’s final moments. Where most stories stop at an arbitrary ending point — two characters fall in love, a detective solves a mystery, a great obstacle is overcome — they never end at the true conclusion. Last Words begins at the ending.
We all have it coming.
Fun Fact:
Religion is a very private thing in the Nordic countries and not something you’re supposed to tell others about, both because most people aren’t religious so it would be considered rude, and also because they’re such personal feelings for religious people.
So a sure way to ruin the mood is to wear a T-shirt with a religious message, or any other object that somehow show what religion you belong to, most of all because Nordics will probably be too polite to talk about it (like I said, you’re not supposed to talk about religion), so it will be a huge elephant in the room and they will just sit and stare awkwardly at you, afraid they might say something that’ll hurt your religious feelings.

Crotch. I do so like the word. (And you thought I would be commenting on the afterlife. Foolish you.)
Crotch also refers to a place where something forks, so just be glad the classic poem doesn’t go, “Two roads crotched in a wood, and I - - I took the one less traveled by.” And you just know I’m going to be referring to them as a crotch in the road from now on.
I had a friend who loved joking with border guards.
“Well, I don’t know, officer. Are pipe-bombs considered a vegetable?”

There have been so many good ones to choose from lately on this site.
All gold, say I, all gold!
