Swedes are often lagom, to a weird nationalist extent. For instance, Swedes laugh at Chinese audiences for being calm in the extreme, without realising they're just like that, themselves.<br /><br />Älska on! Stockholm and Sweden needs it. Ha!

You want to keep an ADD patient sated? Drop 'em in NYC, there's something new to fixate on with every breath.

I mean, I get excited about every new website or technology and everyone else is like "uhh...it's just a website" and i'm like "NO! IT'S THE BEST THING EVER!"<br /><br />There are definitely some things worth getting excited about. (sex in the morning is right up there). But as a NYer, I will never give up my flare for the wildly overdramatic. :) Hahaha.

Although, I'd say it's probably pretty American, in general, though it's likely even more dramatic in New Yorkers. About a year ago, a high school friend of mine (and yours), in a discussion about fantasy football, got quite excited, and one might say, teetered on pseudo-orgasm while talking about how "there is nothing better than Live Scoring on Sundays". For the uninformed, Live Scoring amounts to a webpage that updates by the minute, your points scored that week as based on the most up-to-date stats available (which often only lag from true real-time by a few minutes). <br /><br />I was impressed by his near lust for Live Scoring, but decided it a major hyperbole. I chimed in and pointed out I could think of a few things that are better than Live Scoring, to provide him a bit of perspective... like say, sex in the morning. Naturally, born and raised a New Yorker, my words were a bit more graphic, nonetheless, the point was made. <br /><br />To lagom! At least in our choice of words...
