Hugleikur Dagsson: Should You Be Laughing at This?

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Should You Be Laughing at This? is a cult classic in Iceland, apparently. Then again, Iceland is a dark country where people drink booze and eat rotten shark. Then again, that also describes Finland (well, lose the shark). People with strong moral backbone will most certainly find these crude comics about crude topics offensive, but if you're not too sensitive, this'll give you an opportunity to see what you can laugh about and what you cannot. What's sacred for you?

Explaining humour is a fairly pointless thing, so here's a picture worth at least a few words. While it explains the tone of the comics quite well, it's also one of the less explicit ones in the book. (Review based on the Finnish translation.)
