Users from Sweden often get banned on r/food on Reddit as they comment on american idea to put cinnamon buns with glazing on... because... well, you know.
there is no British humour as British is a made-up identity used to diminish the smaller identities in the "union." My country is Scotland, not Britain. Scottish comedy is entirely different to english comedy, our cultures are entirely different and it is at best ignorant and at worst imperialistic to imply otherwise.
@@thevis5465 You do realise that holds true for everywhere, right? Not just Britain? Humour varies wildly from different parts of Sweden as well, yet they’re all part of the Swedish identity. They’re also part of Scandinavian humour. I try to watch shows from every part of Britain, so I know it differs, but there are similarities when you watch it as an outsider. Of course you should be proud of Scotland (you’ve got some absolute brilliant comedians), but to call a foreigner ignorant or an imperialist because I called something from Britain British seems a bit harsh…
@@Blodsten90 The majority of Scots see themselves as solely Scottish and not British, myself included. It's not a term you should use to describe Scottish people in general. I wouldn't call a Kurd an Iraqi for example just because Kurdistan doesn't currently happen to be a sovereign state. Britain is just an island and it has no identity. You can only be English, Scottish or Welsh. Not British.
They grew up on Mothy Python ofc, so its not that hard to feel the brittish/swedish perfect blend throughout. I Highly recommend just watching the serie. I find the music being great but their weakest point of enjoyment according me, the other stuff just surpasses the music stuff greatly.
Compared to monthy python who often dealt with irony sarcasm and the absurd. Grotesco does a semi-good job at following in those footsteps. They're not as great as the Pythons but they're entertaining for sure. I mean I sang a couple of their songs at work last week. Because it was jolly good fun.
Grotesco have made some of the best humoristic sketches we have and since Sweden is so secular and very much against censorship of any kind, no one really cares how far they go and they do go far in some of their work...
Against censorship? What planet are you on? We're against censorship of mockery/satire of christianity. We're all for censorship against all sorts of things, just not that.
Grotesco certainly is a Swedish treasure. I would recommend "Ett kilo mjöl" by them as well. It's freaking hillarious. Also, kind of similar in a way; Nanowar of steel - Valhallelulja. Italian band singing about Sweden and IKEA in a christmassy fashion. :)
You absolutely have to do a video about my favourite sketch with Grotesco, I think it’s called “the trail” or something. In pretty sure you would really laugh on that one😂
You´re a great guy! And Grotesco is great fun. Seen your videos on swedish music as well. You could live in Sweden any time. Greetings from Halmstad /Ulf
Like you said Brittish and Swedish comedy definetely have their similarities. I'm especcialy thinking in the sense of sarcastic humour. Keep it coming, as a Swede i enjoy your content!
You should see if there is any clips from Killinggänget or Galenskaparna with subtitles to react to. They're older, but classics. I'll go search for some, if you don't hear back, it's probably because my adhd made me forget 😅.
th-cam.com/video/r0y9Nm62_JE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=AZ0wh4W_Zjgm59wM Ok, this one might be a bit controversial for some people today, but it's from the nineties, so it was different then. To me it's still a classic :)
No? It certainly is not my friend. That´s just called "Runka". Runka Bulle on the other hand is a very specific way of doing it, a legendary game that every school has it own rumours about. The game of Runka Bulle is when a group of guys stand in a circle, with a cinnamon bun in the middle. Jerking off. And the rules are very simple, the one who finish last lose the game and therefor has to eat the bun. With all the glazing of course. I dont know where it came from and i dont think many people actually has played the game. But it was a story that "Kevins older cousin" told all the younger kids about how Junior High is... A legend/tale/story. I bet there are some people out there who actually has participated in it but i for sure believe that the legend is a lot bigger than the actual "sport". You even hear that in the lyrics of the song. How they describe a game of Runka Bulle. Satan played a game of Runka Bulle with the Lord and Satan tried to cheat by place a clothes peg (en Klädnypa in Swedish) at the Lords knob but the peg flew off and it ended up with Satan having to eat the biscuit/bulle. The soggy biscuit. Then in the second verse Judas was the one who finished last after Petrus and Marcus.
And for the lyrics "never finish last" is literal but the swedish "kommer aldrig sist" could also be translated to "never cums last". So it's a wordplay that get lost in translation. But it's till accurate. :D
Some of the people behind Grotesco made a TV series a few years back called Boy Machine. It's about a 90's boy band that tries to make a comeback in their fourties by competing in the Swedish qualification to the Eurovision Song contest. It is absolutely brilliant but I don't know if it is available with English subtitles though. Anyway, here is a link to one of the music videos featured in the TV show (song sung in English). th-cam.com/video/YbOeqWcXzgA/w-d-xo.html
If you are looking for more comedy gold, but in movie form, there is always Killinggänget. Torsk på Tallin: en liten film om ensamhet (Pimp in Tallin, a small film about loneliness). This one is great, and short. Fyra nyanser av brunt (Four shades of brown). For some reason this is one of my favourite Swedish movies, but it's quite long, but well worth watching.
best sketch with Grotesco is "nicklas och skärpet"...but i do not think its on youtube, but it can be found on other channels...but not sure with subtitles...but by far the best they done, and thats saying alot!
You should check out their fake commercial "Kroatian Invasion". It is a skit based on commersials for Techno Collections on CD that used to air late 90's/early 00's. Absolutely brilliant.
I recommend The Prize by Helt Appropå (completely appropriate) a Swedish comedy group who makes fun of the Nobel Prize. It's a bit longer, 25 minutes to enjoy.
Would be great seeing you react to "Sabaton - En livstid i krig" , especially the live-version in gothenburg, its a swedish metal-band singing about War stories. The live performance is magical and the lyrics are really emotional, which means you need to put on captions. :)
Thats not fun to watch to be honest. Serious metal? Feels random. More fun to watch humour or maybe schlager or silly stuff. Men det är en bra låt dock. Hade isf vart roligare med Björn Rosenström, Kebabrepubliken, eller nej..! The Kristet Utseende!
As mentioned this is humour standing on the shoulders of giants, mainly from Britain. Monthy Python, Not the 9 O'clock news etc. can absolutely be seen as the ancestors of this group.
The Swede's been really influenced by British humor like everyone else said. Many Swede's grew up watching Monty Python. Fawlty Towers, Benny hill and so on. Then of course it's mixed in with Swedish humor.
lol i end up commenting every reaction u do, so before i did my military service elder guys told me, in the militarty u have this game u are required to play and its called "runka bulle" id say it meens jerk off on a bun?. So i actually had guys who said they didnt wanna do military service coz they didnt wanna do this game, obv we never did it. Maybee some gay people did but i never saw anyone do it even though it has 2 of my favourite things in it:)
When we had Boys party we always Wanking Bum, the last guy who could not load it had to eat the Biscuit. This is Swedish tradition and I do not see anything wrong with it? Of course we laughed and had pressure, no-one wanted to be the last on, hehe .
I guess a Britt would get it. Im Swedish and grew up on Brittish humor in the 70s. Most top brittish shows aired in Sweden. We just took it 2 steps further when we made or own humor lol

Grotesco = a swedish treasure. They are amazing! Love your reaction to this.
Kult..
Galenskaparna är vassare. Men man kanske behöver vara svensk för att förstå humorn.
second that!
Lots of us swedes grew up loving British humour shows. There’s many similarities, biting sarcasm being the main thing in my opinion.
Agreed. And I really love british humour. Looking forward to the new Fawlty Towers!

I would never ever think a UK guy would react to this. Made my day. Grotesco is great / Grotesco är grymma!
The "happy-clappy" performance is just hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
As a finn this is just brilliant! Love them!!

Well, in this case , just like in "Bögarnas fel", the music fits perfectly as it is typical frikyrkomusik - free/nonconformist church music.

ETT KILO MJÖÖÖÖÖÖÖL
Watch dis bad boy
Yes this has to go next!
Etttt kilo mjööööööl
That and hemliga dokument
Absolutely love how each and every one of their songs are effing bangers as well haha.
Oh, thanks for this, I learned a new term today: Soggy Biscuit. :) I thought that was a myth until my friend told me about his hockey team.
I was waiting for you to do this one😂
You absolutely have to do a video about my favourite sketch with Grotesco, I think it’s called “the trail” or something. In pretty sure you would really laugh on that one😂
watch the extended version, that is pure gold!
I love that the reverend is the same actor that played DJ TREXX. Talk about RANGE!
Something topical I'd recommend since we're close to Christmas would be Tomten är en kommunist by Henrik Dorsin a major member of Grotesco
You´re a great guy! And Grotesco is great fun. Seen your videos on swedish music as well. You could live in Sweden any time. Greetings from Halmstad /Ulf
This Grotesco song really makes you think of Monty Python’s ”Every sperm i sacred”, doesn’t it?
I think Grotesco - Jul På Pizzerian (Christmas at the pizzeria) would be fitting now. 'Tis the season, after all. 🎄 (If there is one with Eng sub 🤔)
💯 agree. I just love them. ❤

Runka Bulle is just like "Jerking off" 😂
No. It's a game where several players jerk off to cum on a biscuit, and the one finishing last have to eat it.
Det är absolut inte bara ”jerking off” 😂

You can google "Soggy Biscuit" too and you´ll learn that it´s the same game over in England!
"soggy biscuit", I live and learn. That one wasn't included in the phrase book.
“Runka” also means to wank in English so it’s a funny play on words
See if you can get a hold of "the trial" with these guys.
I didn't know there was an english equivalent (soggy bisquit). Over 30, but still the eternal student. There are many beautiful phrases to take in
Great information for the participants to take with them.... 🤣😂🤣Life is one big lesson!!
😂

It doesn't get lost at all. It has the same meaning in English.
Grotesco - your onion, from their cabaret is really amusing too. It's a spoof on how swedes view Southern American court rooms
Grotesco - ett kilo mjöl (Amzing)
delightfull

"Runka bulle" with english accent.. I die...
some of their best sketches with subtitles are some of the ones made 3 years ago i think
The guy we saw in the video who found religion later walks down the street and gets stabbed.
Very true
But hes saved.
I think Mert has found his favourite song...
Check out Henrik Dorsin from grotesco singing about Santa being a communist. It's hilarious. 😂😂

Henrik Dorsin is also in probably the most watched swedish drama comedy TV series ever, Solsidan, as a very annoying and stingy (but funny) character.
My favorite is Ett kilo mjöl. At least out of the famous ones.
The answer is yes, yes we Swedes are slightly nutts 😂
😂👍😂👍😂
You need to react to the sketch “ett kilo mjöl” next!
It is Grotescos best work in my opinion.
Just watched it. No idea what's funny about it.
I think that sketch is harder to get if you're not a swede.
@@TheNiklasstrombergIt’s worth a try
Henrik dorsin is a genius❤
Please watch "Ett kilo mjöl" by Grotesco. Its the funniest thing ive seen from them!
I just realised that the subtitles are gone on that clip. Im sure there were subtitles before.
Det ballar ur!
Agreed, it's one of the most absurd skits I've seen :D
I'm Swedish but will recommend you anything from Norwegian comedy group Ylvis.
😂😂😂
They are like swedens Monte Python. ^^
Glad our weird swedish humor is spreading ;D
You should check out Poesi för Fiskar!
Side fact, that long haired dude, thats the creator of Crazy Frog
Yep. Runka Bulle is exactly the same as Soggy Bisquit.
"Runka Bulle" directly translated means "Jerk off Bun" or "Wank Bun". Grotesco is awesome.
I am a swedisch woman,and i laught at you,did you think it was ( fika) time?😂
I blame this on Monty Python! 😁
😅😅😅
Runka bulle means wank on the pastry, cheers!
Grotesco reminds me of modern Monty Python
Henrik Dorsin - Krampus
Runka bulle IS Soggy Biscuite. Same "game".
The Swede's been really influenced by British humor like everyone else said. Many Swede's grew up watching Monty Python. Fawlty Towers, Benny hill and so on. Then of course it's mixed in with Swedish humor.

You should watch Grotesco - USA Parody
You should look up - ett kilo mjöl - grotesco ;)
The Pride of Sweden 🐯👌
Yes, "Runka bulle" is the swedish term for soggy bisquit (In America: soggy cookie).
But if you translate it more correct is: soggy bun.
You should look att the asylum crisis the musical by grotesco
Morgonsoffan med Johan glans eller Björn Gustafsson
React to something from the movie Mammas Pojkar, please.
it means jerk bun
Runka Bulle would roughly transalte to "Wank the Bun" or "Wank the Muffin"
Oh damn i'm early xD
Prematurely...
Grotesco is the best we have 🇸🇪
It's called Freedom of Speech! :-)
Easily react to "ett kilo mjöl" also by grotesco.
its not really soggy.. :D
This bit is amasing from the gang Grotesco as well. A short one, but doesnt get old.
