Nordic Countries to Promote Open Source

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the pining-for-the-fjords dept.

Nordic Avenger writes "The Nordic countries have launched a website to promote open source software to consumers and small businesses. People can submit open source software links as well as exchange information in the forums section. As the website states: 'Nordicos.org is a project of the Nordic Ministerial Council, and addresses the need for a comprehensive overview of open source software available for consumers'. Now, anybody eager to make good suggestions about software that normal people could find useful and live happily ever after in the open source world?"

    Dear Apple,

    I am a homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.

    with much gayness,

    Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day, S.J.

    We here at Apple are glad you like your new Apple computer. Apple has decided to exclusively go after the homosexual market, so we can guarantee that everyone using an Apple computer is a homosexual. Do not fear. We at Apple computer are working overtime to write software to appeal to young boys so they too can become homosexual. Soon, we hope that most boys will be Apple users and homosexuals.

    My mom's brother just got divorced, and I have the hot for his hot and slutty ex-wife, which is now my ex-aunt. She seems to want to get down as well. This won't be a big deal, right? After all, we're not blood related.

      Oh, and forgot to mention yet another bonus: if you ever get caught, she'll get all the blame for seducing you.

      And why would this stop you?

      I wouldn't hesitate to fuck my 17-year old pretty little sister if she just were interested in a little bit of "family fun". I think she's a dyke, though. I once caught her and her best girlfriend on a couch looking all flushed, hot and bothered and extremely annoyed at me for running in "unannounced". They were "watching TV". Yeah, right. Whatever.

  10. Do I qualify for the homo discount? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    I'm not bragging, but I have a really long dick. I've created this platform of sorts where I can place my dick on there, and it bend towards my rectum, which I then can slide up and down on. In essence, I can literally fuck myself. Since I'm am fucking myself, being a guy, would that qualify me as being a homo? I really like the Apple computer, but don't want to go find another homo to fuck just to get the discount, as I am very happy with my own rectum to fuck. How soon can I get a ruling on this?

  11. Re: No polar bears here... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Do you understand that Finland, Norway and Sweden rise up into the Artic circle where Polar bears can be found? According to my world atlas Norway has land and /or territory well into the Artic circle called Svalbard. This isle is some 500 plus kilometers North of main Norway in Norwegian Sea. Want to take a bet Polar bears are active up there?

    Denmark might never need worry about a polar bear stopping in for lunch at Nordic evuivalent of In and Out yet the other three countries have a small chance in their northernmost sections.
