You definitely haven't broken the "Sweden is full of very attractive people" stereotype, though!

Also, whoa yes, lost Petrelli brother.

LOL! Would you like me to? It could be a very interesting picspam... and possibly traumatizing as well. :-)

Also, whoa yes, lost Petrelli brother.

I noticed it a while ago, and I can't stop thinking of him as a lost Petrelli brother! It's even more glaringly obvious in this drawing.

I used to go to the same high school (well, 'gymnasium') as Nyamko Sabuni. She was really hot when she was 18... Also, my sister had gym class with her and claims that she usually wore red lacy underwear.

She's still pretty hot, I just hate her party and most of her ideas. :-)

Swedish people are very hot - you are upholding this stereotype! It must be in the water or something. None of our politicians can stand up to yours!

I am so making a picspam of ugly Swedes! *g*

The prettiest of our politicians is probably the environmentalist Maria Wetterstrand. The ugliest will be making it into the next picspam...

Ooh, also very pretty. And I cannot wait to see a picspam of ugly Swedes! I think I've met about 6 Swedes in person in my whole life and they were all gorgeous - 4 of them were tall and blond, one of them was fair-skinned but tall and dark, one of them was of Iranian descent but *still* had that look about him!

It is clear we must never meet! I would hate to ruin your illusions. (Short, mousy-haired, pug-nosed, borderline overweight. Yeah.)

This is a great post, full of really beautiful people. (Long live that particular stereotype, anyway!)

kattahj August 8 2008, 04:23:28 UTC

Thanks! And I fully plan to kill that stereotype next! *snickers*

Yay! It is a truth not so universally recognized that Sweden is considerably less white than, say, Utah. :-)
