I'm a 2nd generation American and my 100% Finnish grandpa always said that the reason we talk in Sauna is that it forces eye contact and an "eyes up high" situation since everyone is naked.

A Finnish friend told me that when Suomi is playing ice hockey against Sweden, the most important is not that Suomi wins but that Sweden loses.

[Phoenix]

I really enjoy your meme videos, keep posting these 😆

[kurtugur]

Hi Aleksi. I lived in Finland 3.5 years, got MSc (tech) from TKK in 2006. Really like watching your videos, I'm reliving the whole experience of Finland again. Since it has been awhile, it brings back great memories. Thanks.

i like how you selected this kind of memes because i think there are closer of common things in Finland, also because in the last video the other memes were like funnier but int this video we can see and know about your personal opinon as a finn and yeah! for example in this video you can say like in wich percent you´re agree or disagree with the meme content. I love your content <3

[anacelleedulza]

I appreciate the fun and learning im gaining in your videos! Thanks Aleksi😃😁

The funniest thing about this map of Europe and Aleksi didn't even pick up on that is that there's nothing written about Denmark. Fins think so little of Denmark that they don't even bother joking about them.

My favorite Meme about Finns is "that they live in Iglus", for the first time i heard of it at an "Ihmisten puolue" Meeting. And this meetings i recommend strongly to everyone who wants to go deeper in the Finnish culture, they even do a "Group hugging" there!

[Jemppu]

Unknown!? Yet not ONE hockey reference anywhere? Are we sure this map meme was compiled by a Finn?

(Actually impressed how coherent you were about the tired 'Swedes are gay' analog. Also surprised that the anecdote has survived to the new millenia at all; I thought it got old after early 90s gradeschoolers' balls dropped).

Somehow you make memes funnier 😂😂😂 great stuff Aleksi!

[neasusanna]

For me and my friends the “finland is the happiest place on earth because all the sad people keep killing themselves” its kind of and inside joke to all of us, we find it funny and I dont even know myself why😅

[loredanab]

I liked the autokoulu car with the memes on. 😁 And as for the map Romania has "Romanis" as main describer because the "official" term for gypsies is Romani, which is easy to mistake for Romanians. In Finnish there is only one letter difference: romanilainen vs romaniAlainen.

[Hukkahanska]

For me Finland vs. Sweden is a kind of friendly derby :) But Finland vs. Russia is a fierce rivalry. And I have sometimes heard that rivalry with Norway is quite important to Swedes.

Great Video yet again. I was first to like! Yay. (Cant wait to watch the whole video!)

[nuclear_fission]

8:34 I will never forget that. Peace was never an option.

I as Japanese person, got surprised about the first one

Any prescription medicine costs you pay yourself count towards an annual maximum limit on out-of-pocket costs. In 2020 the annual maximum is set at EUR 577.66 e. If you exceed the annual maximum, you can get an additional reimbursement, which means that for the rest of the year, you only pay a EUR 2.50 copayment for each reimbursable medicine. That's why the cost was 6€ on that meme.

Loved Your hysterical laugh!
First time I was working in Finland and while watching TV my colleagues tried to convince me that Antti Tuisku was gay. Well I believed it for some time, but later on figured out that they were just jealous of his good looks LOL
