Is that allowed?
Scandinavians sweating is not only allowed but encouraged. Means you worked hard.

Or it got above 20.

Either way.

Scandinavians sweating normally is accompanied by the trademark lobster red, white socks and sandals around here.

Well not where I live. Since my region looks more like this:

Around here we can spot them because they're tourists who actually have some appropriate clothing for the environment.

I mean, it's still weird, but we spend less time laughing at how their teeth chatter...

When I was little, Minnesota was on the tail end of having its identity as a land of Norwegian, Swedish, and German immigrants. Known for lutefisk and lefsa and "yah you betcha".

These days I think that's mostly faded to memes. Even ope is more just a meme. Most decedents of those people here are just American vanilla, monolinguistic, growing up on the same accents and such from TV as any other Millennial or Gen X'er.

Most of the growing cultural/linguistic/culinary influences here now are Latin American (Mexico, Central America), East African (Somalia), Southeast Asian (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia), and Indian.

What part of Mexico?

I mean, I grew up and live in Central Texas, so the Mexican influence here is decidedly northern. When I was living in Brooklyn (1126, represent!), the Mexican influence to be found was Oaxacan--similar enough to make a body homesick, but not enough to really feel like home.

He held up a finger in a 'wait a minute' gesture, before slashing his claws . . . hand through the air again. Once again the slash of light flared and then faded to nothing.

Uh-oh.
