Dang I'm disappointed. I thought it was going to be a reprise of the European woman with the very strong cheeks.
 
Re: How to open a bottle of beer the Scandinavian way

As one of the stupid-party-tricks I have seen it done. And I have seen a guy fail, and accidently open the other bottle...

I don't think there's anything especially Scandinavian about it. A friend of mine uses his lighter, another the edge of a table top, my dad his engagement ring. The latter technique is not to be recommended. After using it as a bottle opener for years the ring ended up D-shaped. Who knew...

One of the youtube-viewers supplied a link to some other techniques

Exactly what I got :)

It's just, with all the stupid human tricks out there, I hope someone is doing their homework or this world is going down the toilet...
 
Re: Another way to open beer

If there is any way to drink beer really fast, the college kids will find it. A friend of mine went to St. Joseph's College and told me of a way to literally guzzle a can of beer by opening both top and bottom at the same time and it explodes in your mouth. What a BURP that must be- yuck.

K: You might enjoy reading 'I am Charlotte Simmons' by Tom Wolfe for a portrait of current American college life drawn in caricature. He is a keen observer of the social scene and pays particular attention to slang, cliques, mores, and the ecology of a modern college campus.
