I love Sylkat

The Finnish documentary in question is owned by our state-owned channel YLE. I just cannot translate it into English and post it here. The situation is understandable, professional translators earn their money doing such things.

Learn Finnish and watch the original.

I have posted the following video before. It is a modern story of chauvinism and intolerance, but it is pro-nature in the end. The song is all-Russian but it needs no translation because the story is global. The singer is a Russian man named Vladimir Vysotskiy who died at a young age, like these wolves.

Warning. The video is Russian and graphic.

I hate touching silk.
Finnish books are probably very thick.

Longer words mean more pages. Banned for knowing some rudiments of Finnish.

Learning Finnish is like climbing a slippery smooth vertical wall.
Hey, you're not supposed to ban people on this thread!

Banned for thinking I may not ban you in whatever thread.

Extra ban because I don't know if it is on or in a thread.

This is the Wrong Planet Police! Back away from the keyboard!

See the orange phone on your desk? Pick up the receiver and Mr. Obama will say hello.

It doesn't have a receiver.

See the Green Phone? It needs no receiver, just talk to it. It will take you to the queen.

Would you swallow the red pill or the blue pill?

Shoot.

Don't shoot! I'm unarmed.

You may not know it (how could you?) but I have been dismantling live land mines. Every time you cut a wire, you think to yourself "red wire or green wire?" The color codes are unreliable, they either are or are not real. Every time you squeeze the tool, you look Death into his eyes.

The Grim Reaper doesn't have eyes.

Two of them. I have seen them both.
